It's not sticky and I love it!
ConsThere's nothing particularly disappointing about it. If I had to nitpick, maybe it's slightly rich?

When I had combination skin leaning towards oily, it was too heavy for summer use. But now that my skin is more on the dry side, it's perfectly moisturizing even in summer! The absorption is really great! Though the quantity isn't huge, a little goes a long way in providing hydration, so it doesn't feel like you're using it up too quickly! Since I tend to use matte sunscreen and foundation, I actually prefer my skincare to be slightly richer, which makes this work even better for me.
ConsThe rich texture is no joke... When my skin isn't in good condition, it can really sit on top of the skin.
TipI recommend using this in winter rather than summer, except for those with dry skin! When you feel it's a bit too heavy, I found it really nice to layer a light toner on top! It's like creating a moisture sandwich: toner (hydration), emulsion (hydration and moisture), toner (hydration) - it feels like you're completely sealing in the moisture! Also, I recommend using a gentle low pH cleanser in the morning instead of just water. The product is quite rich, so a simple water rinse might not be enough to remove excess oil, which could lead to clogged pores in oily areas!

I didn't experience any sensation of dryness at all with this product.
ConsIt feels a bit rich on the skin. I'm not sure if there's an ingredient that doesn't agree with me, as I'm experiencing some itchiness and a slight reaction. I'll need to keep an eye on it for a while longer.

That's about all I can say...
ConsMy skin that had just calmed down is flaring up again... The only thing I changed was this emulsion. I was only using this emulsion as my skin was in the process of calming down. I switched from Avene because it was discontinued and not sold domestically, but this one doesn't suit me at all - it's the worst! I thought it was fragrance-free, but the Primera emulsion has a scent. I had thrown this away before because it didn't work for me either... The oil comes to the surface immediately, and I'm stopping after using it for 3 days. Now I don't know what to do with this... I can only sigh...

To be honest, for my oily skin type, there were more drawbacks than advantages.
ConsIt feels quite rich. As someone with oily skin, I found it a bit off-putting. Other than that, nothing particularly stands out.

Despite the high price, I decided to give it a shot, shedding a tear as I made the purchase. Hydration & Oil Balance ★★★★☆: If I had to estimate the ratio of hydration to oil, it feels like 3:7. There's significantly more oil than hydration. Perhaps due to the oil content, even though I usually have severe deep dryness, after cleansing and applying this emulsion, my typically tight skin feels relieved. As someone with very combination dehydrated skin, I'm satisfied. Absorption ★★★☆☆: Rather than absorbing, it feels like it sits on top of the skin. To get it to absorb somewhat, I have to press and pat it into my skin. Scent ★★★☆☆: It's not unscented, but has an ambiguous herbal or floral scent? It's hard to define, but it's neither particularly pleasing nor displeasing. Blemishes ★★★☆☆: I have sensitive skin that often breaks out, and I noticed some small bumps around my chin area. While it might not be due to the emulsion, it's been a while since I've seen this type of texture. However, I haven't had any major breakouts, so it doesn't bother me too much. Overall Rating ★★★☆☆: A decent emulsion that's neither great nor terrible. If you can't find an emulsion you love, should you buy this...? Maybe...? It's a bit ambiguous. I don't feel the need to spend 33,000 won on this particular product.
ConsPrice ★★★☆☆: 33,000 won for 70ml seems a bit expensive for the quantity. However, you don't need to use much product to hydrate your face, so it's not quite at the level of 'This is too expensive, I'm wasting my money' territory. Oil Content ★★☆☆☆: While the oil content is good for preventing my skin from feeling tight, if I apply the emulsion before bed, I wake up with an excessively oily face. In the morning, my face looks so greasy in the mirror that I don't even want to look at it. Absorption ★★☆☆☆: As mentioned above, it doesn't absorb well and tends to sit on top of the skin. If you dislike this feeling, it's a ❌.

When applied, you can feel a slight cooling effect. It seems to work well with makeup, and I trust it because it's from Isoi.
ConsThe oil tends to sit on top of the skin a bit... Other than that, I'm satisfied. The amount seems quite small for the price. It would be nice if they could either lower the price a bit, increase the quantity slightly, or include some gratis samples.
TipI've been using the Centella Dressing for years as a devoted fan! As always, when mixed and applied before bed, it gives you honey-like skin in the morning. In the morning, one pump alone is enough. It's quite rich, so it might be good for those with dry skin. Since I have oily skin, I use about one pump.

ConsSince it's an emulsion, don't expect a cream-like texture! It has only a slight rich feeling.

In winter, I found it absorbs well when applied before cream. Even though it doesn't contain artificial fragrances, it has a pleasant lavender scent that lifts my mood when applying.
ConsThere's not much to dislike, but it's slightly richer than expected. Those with oily skin probably don't need to bother with this.

It's so easy to apply. The texture is great, and the emulsion consistency is just perfect!
ConsIt has a bit of an oily feel, so if you apply too much, it can feel a bit heavy on the skin.
