On the second day of use, the area around my eyes and cheeks became red and itchy. It happened on a day when I had been rubbing my eyes a lot, so I think the alcohol content in this essence might have caused irritation. I should have only applied it to my nose or forehead instead of my entire face.

I used the free sample. It's refreshing and absorbs well into the skin. I think it would be great to use when it's hot outside.

In terms of hydrating power among similar boosting essences, the order goes: SK-II Essence < Holi Chual Balancing Essence < IOPE Bio Essence < Shiseido Eudermine Essence

While the moisturizing power is a bit underwhelming, this product stands out more for its fresh finish rather than an explosive burst of hydration

The hydration is slightly lacking, but it's great for light application and doesn't cause irritation

As I have dry skin, I wish it was more moisturizing and had a bit more hydration

It absorbs well and feels lightweight, though it might not be enough for extremely dry skin

Due to the nature of the product container, the glass bottle has some weight to it, so you might feel a slight heaviness on your wrist when using it.

The fragrance is lovely, and it feels like a hydrating toner. This line would make a great gift for mom. As you can see from the empty bottle, the product is excellent, but it's a bit pricey. For those in their 20s or students, there are many gentle products from other brands that might be more suitable.

While it's quite hydrating for a water-like consistency, those expecting intense moisture from an essence might find it lacking. It's not extremely expensive, but given that you need to use it in toner-like quantities despite being an essence, it could be a bit costly for some.

It absorbs well, and considering its toner-like consistency, the hydration is decent. Personally, I'm not a fan of strongly scented products, but the unique tangy fragrance might appeal to some. If you're looking for a product that feels light and fresh even in summer, this is worth trying.

It's quite pricey... But it's so good that I find myself shedding tears as I hit the purchase button

After using this, my skin has truly improved... It provides excellent hydration, so I'm incredibly satisfied with it!

My skin got used to it, so I tried other products and came back to this. But it doesn't seem to improve my skin like it did before...

I love that it's not sticky at all. When I first started using this, I heard a lot of people say their skin improved.

As someone with combination skin, I sometimes experience redness and a tingling sensation, so I probably won't repurchase. It might be suitable for those who don't have particularly sensitive skin when it comes to cosmetics.

The subtle fragrance and deep moisturizing effect leave your entire face feeling hydrated after application. When you wake up in the morning after using it, you'll notice that sebum production isn't excessive, and the oil and moisture balance seems improved. It gives you a subtle, not overdone glow.

It seems there aren't many places to purchase this product. Since it's a water essence, it runs out quickly when used with a cotton pad.

My mom gave me a bunch of samples, and this was among them. At first, I didn't know the brand, so I just applied it carelessly before bed. But wow! It absorbs well, and my other skincare products layered nicely on top. After using the sample for a few days, I realized it was such a great product that I searched to buy it, which led me here. I usually avoid sticky water-based essences, but this one isn't sticky at all. Not knowing the price, I even used it with a cotton pad, patting it in to absorb. It's really good!

Given my mindset that toners should be budget-friendly, I find the price a bit disappointing.

The more you apply, the more hydrated your skin feels. By the time you finish the bottle, you'll be amazed at how much moisture it's been providing!

The runny texture makes it a bit tricky to apply. Because of this, I end up wasting quite a bit of product. Also, it's on the pricier side.

Fantastic for dry skin! It's been a while since I've used a water-type skin essence, and this one is wonderfully hydrating and absorbs well. I love how lightweight it feels. It's also gentler than I expected, which is a pleasant surprise.
