Pros
My skin is extremely dry, so I really need to use an essence. But even if I diligently use toners or pads beforehand, the moment I apply this product, my skin becomes stabilized!!
Cons
There's not really anything disappointing, but it's a bit irritating? I'm not sure what the ingredients are, but there is a stinging sensation after applying it.

Pros
Personally, I liked that the container was not too heavy and had a long opening, so it didn't leak. It was also easy to use. The product, named 'Essence Water', was soft and moisturizing, but not heavy. As the weather got colder, my skin was starting to feel dry, but this was the perfect product for me right now. The moisturizing effect wasn't heavy or oily, but rather a nice, supple and bouncy feeling. The ingredients are good, and the usage experience is great, so I'll probably buy it when it's on sale. Applying it multiple times can help build a strong base for the winter.
Cons
The container is convenient, but the opaque material makes it a bit disappointing that you can't see how much product is left.

Pros
1) Moisture < Oil > Those who lack oil rather than moisture can be satisfied with this product > When applied in the evening and slept, the skin looked the best the next day (reduced flaking when applying makeup) > It seems to work better in the dry spring or fall than in the summer 2) Ease of use > Milky essence + narrow opening + soft container > Overall, it was easy to apply even without a dropper 3) Spreadability > Despite being an oily product, the fluid texture spreads lightly > Leaves a veil-like feeling on the skin after application * Use the product mainly on dry areas (cheeks) 4) Cost-effectiveness > The full-size is larger than other essences, so 25,000 won seems reasonable * Previously used essences: Dokdo, Beplain Cica, Innisfree Retinol, Pureforet Noscarin, etc.
Cons
1) Fragrance > Herbal or diluted medication-like scent > Those sensitive to fragrance may want to take note. 2) Dosage control > Without a dropper, it's difficult to gauge the right amount * Applying too much can disrupt the oil balance and cause breakouts, so dosage control is important.
Tip
- Better for evening use than morning > The veil-like feeling after application may feel heavy in the morning. - Use lightweight products after this essence > As this essence is relatively oily, it's recommended to follow up with a lighter lotion rather than a cream.

Pros
Skin Type: Sensitive, Dry Skin 💛 Texture: The texture is a smooth, flowing consistency that isn't too thick, almost like a serum. It's a bit thinner than an ampoule but slightly thicker than a toner, with an essence-like consistency. 💛 Irritation: Since my skin is sensitive and easily reacts to incompatible ingredients, I'm glad this product didn't cause any irritation or breakouts. 💛 Packaging Convenience: The bottle has a pointed tip, which makes it easy to dispense just the right amount of product. The packaging is also quite pretty. 💛 Soothing: While it doesn't have a dramatic calming effect, when my skin was red and irritated from breakouts, using this product did provide some soothing relief. However, for best results, it's better to use this in conjunction with a dedicated soothing cream for a more synergistic effect.
Cons
💛 Fragrance: Personally, I'm not familiar with or fond of the fragrance in this product, so that was a bit of a downside for me. 💛 Hydration, Absorption: I've been using essence waters from other brands that I really love, and as a dry skin type, I had high expectations for the hydrating properties of this essence. But after applying it, I didn't get that satisfying, deeply absorbed feeling that I enjoy. It felt a bit like it was just sitting on top of my skin without fully penetrating. While it didn't leave my skin feeling dry, I also didn't get that plump, quenched sensation I was hoping for.

Pros
Even in the summer, I need to spray a mist at the office due to severe dryness, and I'm a sensitive type that develops allergies with seasonal changes. So I usually like to layer toners and use water essences. It's recommended to apply as the first step after cleansing, and I used it after toner, both in the morning and evening. The texture flows smoothly, but the small dispenser made it easy to control the amount. It glides on without any irritation, absorbs quickly, and leaves a clean finish. I used it daily for a week and didn't experience any issues, and it's a product I can rely on even more as the temperature fluctuations increase.
Cons
Despite my sensitive, dry skin, there were no disappointing aspects.

Pros
First, the 'moisture' was really good. I didn't expect much from the essence, but it felt like the moisture was completely filled! And the 'absorption' was also good. I thought the essence texture was a little thin, but it was absorbed quickly and I felt like it was in there. The opening is a little peculiar, in the form of a squeezer, but this was really convenient. Since I can use only as much as I want without going overboard, I thought it was convenient and economical. I have oily skin and I don't like feeling stuffy, and I tend to prioritize quick absorption and moisture, and I think I will stick with this product in the future as well. Additionally, the ingredients are good and the fragrance is nice.
Cons
There was not a single disappointing point. The viscosity was just enough not to drip down, so it was also easy to apply.

Pros
The texture has a very light, lotion-like feel. It was moisturizing and refreshing. It didn't feel sticky and absorbed well into the skin. I think this essence water alone would be convenient, without needing to use multiple toners, essences, and lotions. If I apply the essence water multiple times and then use a cream, my skincare routine would be complete. I also really liked the product packaging and the dispenser hole. It was easy to use. However, the fragrance was a bit...
Cons
The fragrance was really disappointing. The moment I applied the essence water on my face, the musty scent made me not want to apply more. I never thought fragrance was that important, but this experience made me realize the significance of it. It would have been so much better if it was completely fragrance-free! In terms of the texture, usage, and packaging convenience, everything was good, but the fragrance makes me hesitant to recommend it.

Pros
The formula was completely watery, so it was easy to absorb. Even with my sensitive skin, there was no stinging or irritation, and it seemed like a good choice for the first step of basic skincare.
Cons
So far, I haven't had any issues with the usage, but if I had to point out one thing, it would be that the amount seems to run out quickly.
Tip
I recommend using this for the first step of your basic skincare routine, and then switching to something lighter during the summer.

Pros
🩵Skin Type: Sensitive, Troubled, Combination 🩵Texture: Watery but with a dense, sticky texture (Essence Water Type) 🩵Fragrance: Fragrance of the product ingredients 🩵User Review: As an essence water type product, it effectively calms and fundamentally strengthens the condition of sensitive skin that has become unbalanced due to external environmental factors. It contains Centella Asiatica fermented filtrate and Lactobacillus ferment, which have excellent soothing effects, to gently soothe sensitive skin. It also includes a liposome-encapsulated Madecassoside complex with 4 types of Centella components, which helps strengthen the skin barrier. Although I was worried that the fermented ingredients might cause breakouts, I didn't experience any significant issues. The water-type texture allows for quick absorption, and the moisturizing effect lasts a long time. Since it contains ingredients that help strengthen the skin barrier, I plan to continue using this product consistently.
Cons
🩵The fragrance is quite strong due to the nature of the ingredients, so it will likely be a love-it-or-hate-it kind of thing. 😄

Pros
My skin is combination skin. So there is dryness, but in the current season, due to oil and sebum secretion, I'm keeping a bit of distance from oily products. After the product arrived, I opened it and oh my, it looked like a baby kitten's milk bottle! It seems to be a container that I haven't seen in regular products. So using it was very convenient. Normally, skin toners tend to flow and spread, but with this product, I could squeeze out the right amount and apply it directly to my face, which was easy. Texture - It was a milky white essence-like texture, between a toner and a lotion. It's not overly oily, but not too lightweight either. I think I can skip the essence step with this product. If it feels dry, I can apply it again and then use a cream. I usually don't wipe off toners, I just pour it into my hands and apply. Usability - It has a light, moisturizing feel and hydration. Although I haven't used it much yet, with the probiotics and cica ingredients, it seems good for soothing and hydration. I feel like my skin will improve with continued use. Fragrance - At first, it seemed fragrance-free, but there is a subtle scent. I'm not sure what it is, but since it's not strong, it's not bad for me. But people may have different preferences on the fragrance.
Cons
So far, there's not much that I'm dissatisfied with, but like other reviews, it would be great if a larger volume size was available.
Tip
There is a home care product that helps with absorption, so if you pour the toner essence onto a thin cotton pad and gently press it on, it can help with faster skin soothing and hydration.
