ConsIt stings a bit if it gets in your eyes. You need to be careful when sweating.

Normally, toners tend to just sit on the surface of the skin temporarily before being absorbed, but this is the only toner that gives an immediate 'sticking' feeling as soon as you apply it. 2) Finish has a slightly drying feel. Needs 2-3 layers of application. ✅️ Texture: Completely runny, watery formula with no viscosity. ✅️ No skin irritation.
Cons✅️ Stings if it gets in the eyes. Be careful to avoid the eye area when using. ✅️ Price: It's good as a toner pack, but the price is a bit high for regular toner use. ✅️ Heaviness The sturdy, premium-looking bottle is nice, but it's quite heavy and inconvenient to carry around.
TipThe thin, watery skin itself is suitable for using as a skin pack or mist.

If you apply it in two layers, there's no tightness on the skin. It's good to use as a substitute for toner.
ConsThere's a bit of eye irritation. The packaging opening is a bit lacking. It's most convenient to dispense it from a spray bottle and use it.
TipUsing it like a mist by dispensing it from a spray bottle seems to be the best way. You can reapply it frequently without it feeling sticky.

I didn't like it right away when I first used it. After using it for a week, it definitely helps with dryness. Layering it 3 times has become a habit, and I always do it that way. I've also tried using it as a pack by applying it to cotton pads, and it works well. It subtly boosts the glow. Most importantly, my skin tends to get very dry with just a regular skin lotion, but this one, even just using the sample, doesn't irritate me at all. The only downside is that the glass bottle is a bit heavy.
ConsThere is some eye irritation. Definitely better when layered multiple times - just using it once leaves my skin feeling dry. I typically layer it 3 times.

I do at least 3 or more rounds of patting, and it gets absorbed into the skin without any sticky or greasy feeling. ✔No irritation on the face ➖Even when I used a toner known for being gentle, I would often feel a stinging sensation depending on my skin condition. But with this product, my face has never felt stinging at all! Especially when I used a toner with exfoliating ingredients, the stinging would be more pronounced, but the Primera essence also contains exfoliating ingredients, yet there was no irritation. ➖I often do multiple rounds of patting to address dryness, but I've never experienced any breakouts due to the formula being too rich or the ingredients being too strong. I've also never had any issues with redness or eczema.
Cons✔️No irritation ➖There was no irritation on the facial skin, but if it got into my eyes, it stung terribly. It stung every time, almost until I finished the entire bottle, and this is the reason I'm hesitant to repurchase. ➖It's likely due to the alcohol content, so those who are sensitive to alcohol may want to consider this. ✔️Ambiguous performance for the price ➖There were no particularly noticeable effects in terms of soothing, clarifying, or hydrating. It just feels like a generally decent toner to use. It lacks any distinctive features! ➖The fact that it's non-irritating for sensitive skin can be considered a big advantage, but it's not significantly better than other toners when compared. Especially considering the price, it's cheaper than the Ogallenic Watery Essence, but there are probably many other non-irritating, non-functional toners out there. (But then again, the lack of irritation could also be a downside compared to other toners.)
TipFor those with very sensitive skin, do not use this for cleansing ❌ I strongly recommend using this for patting application, and when doing a face mask, be sure to choose a soft and non-irritating pad or cotton.

When I first received the package and checked the packaging, I was really excited because it said it helps soothe and reduce redness. I've been using a lot of products with ingredients like mugwort and houttuynia cordata to help calm and reduce breakouts. ✔️ Packaging and Design: It's a glass product, but it wasn't as heavy or bulky as I expected, and the design is clean and nice~ ✔️ Texture and Fragrance: It's a watery toner that absorbs quickly, and the fragrance is faint and disappears quickly after application! ✔️ Application and Feel: Since my skin is oily, I don't like products that feel heavy or greasy, but this applied lightly and felt great. After using it for a few days, I noticed my skin texture became smoother!! I never felt dryness after using it.
Cons✔️ Even after using my existing pad and peeling products to exfoliate, and then layering this product as a soothing pack, I felt the soothing effect wasn't as strong as I had hoped ㅠㅠ ✔️ Since my eyes are sensitive, when I applied it on my palms and then to my face, it stung my eyes a bit ㅠㅠ

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros✔️Texture: It has a texture between a water-based toner and a very thin essence. -> It feels like a water-based toner with two pumps of essence mixed in. So it's not completely lightweight, but it doesn't feel heavy either. ✔️Fragrance: Fragrance-free ✔️Stickiness: None / It's on the refreshing side, and when you quickly absorb it into the skin, there's a very subtle plump feeling, but it's not overly sticky. Effects: 💜In this time of seasonal changes, ‼️ >>It acts as a booster between toner and essence<<, in my opinion. ➡️I'm currently using the Cosrx Propolis Yellow Toner. This toner has an amazing bouncy texture. After cleansing, applying it helps open the moisture barrier and provides good hydration. But in this dry weather, that alone is not enough, so after using this toner, when I apply a watery essence, I don't feel dryness during the time between washing my face and brushing my teeth, and instead feel like something has been replenished, helping the next essence step absorb better. 💜The calming effects appear quickly. I saw a notice about its calming effects, and I can feel that. When I wash my face at home these days, with prolonged mask-wearing, I often see bumpy sebum and occasional red blemishes on my chin area. -> When I apply a thin cotton pad soaked with this product and 'pack' it on, the next day, the sebum and redness are reduced. -> If the packing is too much trouble, layering it 2-3 times also helps calm the redness on my cheeks and chin the next day. => I feel the overall redness-relieving effect after 3-4 days, and the sebum control on my chin the next day. 💜Good for spot packing As I mentioned, the texture is very thin but has a slight viscosity, so you can soak a toner pad with it and 'pack' it on problem areas, and you can really feel the calming effects on those spots.
ConsSince the texture is very thin, I usually apply it directly to my forehead, but when I do that, it immediately runs down, and if it gets in my eyes, it stings a lot.
TipAfter applying the toner and this product, if you add a spot treatment or a concentrated ampoule on top, it greatly helps with absorption.

It has a liquid formula that can be applied with a cotton pad like a face pack, which I highly recommend.
Cons1. The bottle is made of glass, so it feels a bit heavy. 2. It can be a hassle to apply like an uncle, and it stings my eyes a little bit.

But this time, I bought a low-molecular hyaluronic acid cream, thinking it wouldn't be too heavy. However, with the sudden drop in temperature, my face was at the extreme of dryness (Basic routine: Witch's Factory Bifida Ampoule Toner or Cellmax Eraser Pad ➡️ Skinfood Lettuce & Cucumber Watery Essence or Dive-in Low Molecular Hyaluronic Acid Ampoule ➡️ Dive-in Cream) After using the Primera Watery Essence to wipe my face 1-2 times and then absorbing it all over with my hands, I found that the dryness was much less noticeable when I applied the cream compared to my usual routine. ✔️ Packaging The bottle is glass, and the cap is plastic, so it has a bit of weight, but personally, I think the glass bottle looks more premium and beautiful. The box is also easy to remove, so I think it would be nice as a gift. ✔️ Dispenser It dispenses one drop at a time, so there is almost no waste. Of course, this could be a downside depending on one's preference. ✔️ Texture As you can see from the bottle, the essence has a purple-ish color. It's a thin, watery texture that drips immediately when applied to the face or back of the hand. It's thinner than the Bifida Ampoule Toner, but not as thin as a pure water-based formula. ✔️ Skin Condition Due to the mask, I had some pimples and other skin troubles on my cheeks and forehead. But the next day after using this, my skin looked much more refined than usual. It was redder and more pronounced the day before, but I'm not sure if my complexion looks brighter yet. I'll have to use it more to see.
Cons😢 Eye Stinging There may be individual differences, but I applied this product the same way as other toners or essences, and right after applying it, my eyes felt a little stinging. I've never experienced eye stinging before.☹️ Those who are sensitive to eye stinging may want to take this into consideration.
