I use it by putting it in an empty bottle and spraying it like a mist. As a first step, it's light, and even when layered multiple times, it doesn't feel heavy.
ConsIf you don't layer it multiple times, it feels like you're just applying water. The formula is too watery, so if you use it as is, you'll end up wasting a lot of product.
TipBe sure to dispense it into an empty bottle and use it as a mist! Let's all save our wallets~

Although I didn't notice much when using it consistently, when I stopped using it, my skin troubles came back up. It has a very mild scent.
ConsThe formula is watery, so when using a cotton pad, it gets used up too quickly, which is disappointing.
TipWhen you have skin troubles, applying it with a soaked cotton pad is effective.

I heard that the microbiome-balancing formula is effective for sebum control, so I'll have to use it for a while to see the results.
ConsThis is also quite pricey, and the watery formula might be a bit drying in the winter.

It suits my sensitive skin well. I soak a cotton pad with it and gently wipe it off with tap water, then let the rest absorb. I'm not sure if it brightens or improves anything, but it provides basic nourishment and hydration well, so I'm on my 4th bottle.
ConsThe packaging is heavy, and when using the cotton pads provided, I tend to use too much.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsI tried purchasing it after hearing that it was renewed this year. The previous intensive version was too heavy and dense, being a concentrated skin. So the absorption was a bit slow and it felt heavy, making it less suitable for use as a first essence except in the winter. However, this new product has reverted to a watery, fluid-like texture just like the very old version, which I really liked. It can be used as a cleansing toner and is also suitable for a moisture pack. It has a light, unburdensome texture. Even with just a single application, the moisture lasts for a long time and it doesn't feel tight. It has a deep-penetrating feel, so I think those with dry skin will be satisfied. The absorption is fast and it feels gentle, plus the ingredients seem good too. I'm currently using the SK-II Pitera, applying the SK-II in the morning and the Iope Bio-Essence at night. But this Iope one seems really well-made - I can barely tell the difference between the two. They both highlight fermentation and antioxidants, and the usage experience, texture, and moisturizing power are very similar, even though the price difference is over 3 times. Personally, I think the cost-effectiveness compared to SK-II is too good, so I'll likely switch to the Bio-Essence once I finish this. I use the SK-II hesitantly because it's so expensive. The fact that it's also fragrance-free is a plus point. I think this new version is a hit.
ConsThere aren't really any personal disappointments in terms of product performance. The only downside would be that the price may be a bit high for those in their 20s. It would be great if they could also release a limited-edition large size of 300-400ml, like some overseas brands do.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsIt seems closer to a skin than an essence. Both in terms of the lightweight formula and the usage experience, it seems more suitable to be used as a toner/skin. It's too lightweight to be considered an essence, and it doesn't seem to have the boosting effects typical of a first essence. It absorbs well and doesn't feel sticky, but the moisture content is higher than expected, so I felt it was more like a moisturizing skin. Especially when used as a skin pack, it works much better.
ConsHowever, the product itself is not bad, but the cost-effectiveness is poor, so I don't have the intention to repurchase.

It's just a light, watery essence, but it managed to address dryness to some extent. There's no heavy, rich feeling, so it's great for quick care in the morning or evening. The skin surface also feels clean and smooth.
ConsThe price is quite high compared to the amount. It's Amore Pacific, after all.

It's a clear skin-type formula. Your skin tone will look brighter. After cleansing with a cleansing oil and foam, I was surprised when I wiped my skin with a cotton pad that was dampened enough - there was some kind of dust-like thing coming off. The next day, my skin felt somehow clearer.
ConsEven if you layer it several times, it only becomes a little more moisturizing, but I don't think it's suitable to use if you're expecting a lot of moisture.
TipIt's best to wipe your skin right after cleansing with a well-dampened cotton pad.
