Instant hydration boost It's like a splash of water for your face! Feels like your skin is drinking up moisture, leaving it refreshed. The hydration is different from the forced slipperiness of hyaluronic acid. 2. Pores seem to calm down There's a sense of soothing, comfort, and settling of angry-looking pores. 3. The ingredient list looks manageable No weird names, and I find myself reaching for it casually. At this rate, I might use it up quickly! 4. Texture: Absorbs quickly despite expectations I thought it would be sticky, but it absorbs rapidly with no residue - my skin drinks it all in. The finish is smoother than just fresh-feeling. 5. Seems to have minimal or no preservatives 6. Fragrance-free, no noticeable scent from raw ingredients Overall: Nothing extraordinary, but surprisingly good After finishing, I might try other products but will likely come back to this It's given me insights, but I'd like to find a more affordable alternative with a similar feel
ConsTo be honest, I was disappointed when I first opened it at home... When you hear 'barrier strengthening,' you expect a heavy cream, but this was a gel! The tube design looked amateurish, the ingredients seemed unremarkable - nothing special. 30ml for 10,000 won? Felt overpriced and I even considered returning it. Despite this underwhelming first impression, I've grown to appreciate its charm with use. However, the main drawback is the price-to-volume ratio. I'm sure there must be equally effective products out there with more generous amounts at a lower price point, if only I knew where to look!
TipLately, I hadn't been feeling inner dryness, so I wondered if my skin was becoming oilier... I was stressing over silicone oils, acne-causing ingredients, exfoliation issues, etc. When I went to a dermatologist, all they said was 'Keep your skin moisturized'... How helpful! Everyone keeps talking about oil-water balance... But what exactly does that mean? This product seems to have answered some of my skin concerns. The answer for me was: my skin lacked hydration. And by hydration, I don't mean that sticky, thick moisturizing feeling... It's more like your face is drinking water - ample and fulfilling. I realized my skin had been like a desert all this time. Oil-free, water-based soothing gel -> Seals in moisture after absorption
