This product works wonders as a soothing treatment after laser procedures, and it's fantastic for calming folliculitis and milia. I especially love using it with galvanic treatments and modeling masks. During galvanic treatments, you typically need to apply a lot of ampoule (if you don't, the skin can feel tight and irritated during the massage). With this product, I can use less ampoule. I apply a thin layer of ampoule, then pat on this product generously before using the galvanic device. Of course, it's also great for soothing the skin even without an ampoule. If aloe doesn't agree with your skin, give this product a try! The finish is a bit sticky. But then again, I've noticed other essences tend to be sticky too. Since the sticky finish can be a bit uncomfortable, I usually top it off with a cream. Besides galvanic treatments, it's also amazing when used under a modeling mask. I apply a thick layer of this product before putting on the modeling mask, and it's absolutely fantastic for soothing the skin. Just be aware that it can make applying the modeling mask a bit tricky. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinAug 1, 2022
The good thing is it's useful for applying to the body when there's irritation from summer sun exposure... I absolutely dislike the sticky feeling and how it sits on top of the skin. I only used it twice and won't use it again. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinJan 31, 2021
It's truly excellent for calming the skin. I used to have severe redness after removing my makeup, but this instantly soothes my skin. It doesn't absorb quickly, leaving a slightly sticky feeling, which is a bit disappointing. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinDec 7, 2020
I tend to use many Sidmool products for essences. I first tried their Aloe Essential for dry and oily skin. Among various essentials, this one is the most versatile. It has a clear, gel-like texture that applies coolly without any particular scent. While I sometimes wonder about its effectiveness during regular use, I can really feel this product working when my skin is troubled or hurting, or when it feels stressed after exposure to fine dust or wearing a mask. After applying the Centella Essential, I notice my skin feels more comfortable when I wake up the next day. It comes in a generous amount, isn't too expensive, and is a product I can consistently use without any issues. There's a slight stickiness after application, but it's not too bothersome. It's perfect for use before bedtime. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinOct 16, 2020
This product helped me overcome steroid-induced perioral dermatitis. After a month of unsuccessful treatment with non-steroid topical and oral medications, I saw improvement just one day after applying this. It calmed my skin without needing other topicals like Elidel or Sulantra. My skin became super sensitive during the dermatitis, but mixing this with Sidmool's Panthenol Ampoule really improved my skin health. Now my skin is clear, but I can't stop using this! There's a slight stickiness, and as with most gel-type products, it lacks deep hydration. However, I find it sufficiently moisturizing when I mix it with a panthenol ampoule (I have combination dehydrated skin). The synergy when mixed with a panthenol ampoule. - Hwahae UserOily SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinAug 17, 2020
It absorbs well and has a nice cooling effect. The fragrance wasn't bad either. While it absorbs well, it feels sticky and drying after absorption. It seems this product doesn't suit me. I only added this to my existing skincare routine, but I developed pustules on my cheeks. After applying this product, my face feels hot, tingles, and turns red. - Hwahae UserDry SkinJun 5, 2020
I desperately needed an extremely gentle product due to contact dermatitis caused by frequent exfoliation and mask-wearing. Looking at the ingredients, I bought this product because it seemed specialized for soothing and unlikely to cause side effects. While I'm not sure how effective it is for calming the skin, it didn't cause any adverse reactions. As you know, when your skin is irritated, avoiding side effects is already a win. In that sense, I recommend it. It has a soothing gel-like texture, which gives a slight cooling effect and glides on smoothly, making it feel like it's healing the skin, which I really liked. Everything's good, but it feels a bit sticky when it dries. It looks like a soothing gel, but it doesn't absorb completely, so my hair tends to stick to it a bit. This product alone isn't enough for hydration, so use hydrating products in the steps before and after. - Hwahae UserOily SkinAcne SkinApr 24, 2020
I bought this because it has gentle ingredients and lots of soothing components. I loved how moisturizing it was when I applied just this and an emulsion. First off, it's not exactly budget-friendly at 19,800 won. Yikes! I thought it would be light since it's an 'essential', but it absorbs slowly and leaves a sticky finish. Applying an emulsion afterwards helps a bit. After about two weeks of use, I kept getting small bumps. I'm prone to blemishes, so I thought it might just be my skin acting up, but it seemed to be getting worse. Bumps were appearing even in places where I don't usually break out. They weren't going away either. Just to test, I skipped the essential and only applied a lot of moisturizer before bed. Lo and behold, everything calmed down by morning. Guess this essential doesn't agree with me... Since it's a hydrating gel, it evaporates quickly when used alone. Make sure to follow up with an emulsion or cream. - Hwahae UserOily SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinJan 21, 2020
Once applied, unlike other cosmetics, it seems to have a somewhat calming effect on the skin After application, it feels sticky, and even if you add more moisturizer on top, a slight stickiness remains - Hwahae UserOily SkinAcne SkinNov 4, 2019
It absorbs well and provides great hydration. The generous amount has allowed me to use it consistently for a month. Since I started using this, my skin has become much calmer. I'm currently using a mugwort toner, and when I use this product alongside it, it leaves a slightly sticky finish.
