The centella ingredients are great for soothing, and it works well as both a toner and essence. I've lost count of how many bottles I've used! I initially used the 100% centella toner, but felt it lacked moisture, so I repurchased this one from The Face Shop. It's so hydrating that I only need this and a moisturizer - perfect for when I want a light routine or when I'm dealing with unexpected blemishes and need to simplify my skincare. Highly recommend for combination dehydrated skin! The overall balance is so good that I don't have any complaints yet. It's also easy to recycle, which is great! When your skin feels super sensitive, apply it generously as a toner mask for instant soothing relief - Hwahae UserOily SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinJun 14, 2023
With its high concentration of centella asiatica, it definitely has a soothing effect on the skin. This product seems better suited for those with dry or sensitive skin, while it might feel a bit heavy for those with oily skin types. Good for dry and sensitive skin. Not recommended for oily skin. - Hwahae UserDry SkinSensitive SkinMay 27, 2023
Great for soothing and hydration. It's excellent for use as a skin pack when applied with a cotton pad. The high-quality ingredients are the most satisfying aspect. The formula is almost water-like in consistency, so using it with a cotton pad seems to be the cleanest way to apply. I appreciate the simple packaging. When recycling, it looks like you just need to remove the sticker. Given its water-like consistency and the need to dispense it manually, it would be more convenient if it came in a pump or spray bottle format. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAtopy SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinFeb 21, 2023
I have combination dehydrated skin with atopic tendencies. Below my forehead, it's dry and prone to blemishes. My deep dryness was extremely severe before - even layering 6 different products multiple times didn't help. Recently, I've been on a skincare diet starting from cleansing, and bought this. It's really helped with my deep dryness! I'm not sure if it's because of this, but I'm not getting blemishes and my skin feels calmer. As it's both a toner and ampoule, I've reduced the number of products I use, and my skin seems better than when I was applying lots! The scent is like mugwort? It makes me feel like I'm getting aromatherapy. There's nothing particularly bad, but the opening seems a bit small. It would be great if they released pads for this too! I applied three layers of first essence, followed by cream, zinc cream, and Vaseline. This routine helped clear up the acne I was getting due to dryness! - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinAug 17, 2022
As a YouTuber who prioritizes ingredients, I can say the formulation is truly impressive... It's not just a fancy name, the concentration of active ingredients feels high! I've tried all of Difa's creations, and I'm consistently satisfied :) I have super sensitive skin, but the soothing effect is amazing! The value for money is great too, so I think I'll be sticking with this product. It's a flowing essence, but not completely watery! I think it's the perfect texture that provides hydration without feeling heavy. There's no alcohol, so you won't feel a cooling sensation when applying, and you might wonder if it's absorbing well. The packaging is also eco-friendly! Like Sidmool, they've kept the design minimal, and the outer plastic wrap can be easily removed for disposal. I really don't have any complaints, but... If you care a lot about cosmetic packaging design, you might find it a bit plain. Also, if fragrance in skincare is important to you, you might be disappointed. The scent is almost fragrance-free or has a natural aroma similar to Sidmool products! If you want to use it as a sheet mask with cotton pads, make sure to use very thin ones! - Hwahae UserDry SkinAtopy SkinSensitive SkinMay 1, 2022
This product has a watery essence texture and excels in soothing and hydrating the skin. Rather than using it as an exfoliating toner, I've been applying it as a pack or absorption toner. When used as an absorption toner in winter, it doesn't leave a heavy finish and absorbs well, leaving the skin moisturized. Applying two layers in the morning followed by an ampoule and cream keeps my skin hydrated all day. On days when my skin feels deeply dehydrated after exposure to harsh winds, I always use it as a pack toner for my night care routine. After a 20-minute pack followed by an ampoule and cream, my skin stays moisturized until morning. In summer, when used as an absorption toner, it can feel slightly oily and a bit heavy, so I don't use it this way often. However, on days when my skin feels extremely dehydrated, applying a thin layer as the first step after cleansing in the morning and evening helps combat deep dryness. After intense sun exposure or when my skin is flushed from heat, I use it as a 10-15 minute pack toner for night care. After absorption, I apply a hydrating or barrier cream before bed, and by morning, my skin feels less dehydrated and more soothed. In summer, when used as an absorption toner, it can feel slightly oily and a bit heavy, so I don't use it this way often. However, on days when my skin feels extremely dehydrated, applying a thin layer as the first step after cleansing in the morning and evening helps combat deep dryness. This essence can be used effectively throughout all four seasons if you tailor its use to the right time, place, and occasion. Since the product was renewed, it's great that I don't need to hold it up to the light to see how much is left. The color and scent may vary depending on the harvest time and growing conditions of the Centella Asiatica extract. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinMar 25, 2022
Skin type: Acne-prone skin Scent: I usually prefer fragrance-free products as artificial scents can aggravate acne-prone skin. This product has a herbal medicine-like scent that might be polarizing! However, it's not artificial, but rather a healthy aroma, so I don't mind it. Effectiveness: The essence I was using before was gentle with good absorption, and this product is also overall gentle, which I like! I'd recommend it to those looking for soothing effects. Texture: It feels slightly oily! I usually use a refreshing cica ampoule, so this centella essence feels unfamiliar and I'm less inclined to reach for it. I don't think I'd use it at all during summer. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinMar 23, 2022
I love that there's no artificial fragrance added, just the natural scent of the ingredients, which seems to promote healthy skin. I can use it with complete confidence. The texture is rich and concentrated, giving a luxurious feel. I have another centella extract product at home, but it's quite thin. This one, however, feels incredibly potent. After application, my skin feels deeply moisturized for a long time, and there's a noticeable calming effect on my complexion. It would be really helpful if there were detailed instructions on how to use the product or a guide highlighting the benefits of the key ingredients. That kind of information would be super useful for users. I kept it in the fridge for a cooling effect. I applied it using a cotton pad to refine my skin texture. When I wanted extra hydration, I simply dispensed the product directly onto my hands and gently pressed it into my skin for better absorption. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinMar 23, 2022
It feels like a potent herbal tonic! The scent of the ingredients is strong, and so are the effects. I could see my skin becoming clearer and more soothed by the next day. Thanks to this, I went to work without foundation for the first time in my life! Oh, especially for those of us with extremely oily skin, it's hard to find an essence like this toner that's non-greasy yet effective, right? (I've always wanted to use something like Laneige Cream Skin). What I loved most about this essence is that it's a reliable first step in my skincare routine. Personally, I usually dislike dropper-type essences because they look unattractive and collect dust, but I appreciate that this container is easy to clean frequently. It stings terribly if it gets in your eyes. Also, many people have mentioned the packaging... I'm slightly disappointed with it too. While it doesn't affect usage, it goes against the innate human desire for aesthetics. This ampoule has a high concentration of Centella Asiatica, so it's great to use when your skin is feeling sensitive. Recently, I've been getting blemishes on the back of my neck from hair essence, but when I applied this up to my nape, it calmed down right away. - Hwahae UserDehydrated SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinMar 22, 2022
Wow, this is the first time I've encountered such an amazing essence!! Skin type: Oily, acne-prone, sensitive - Hydration: ★★★★ Even with just toner and essence, it was more than enough!! You can feel the hydration, your skin becomes moisturized, and it absorbs quickly! At first, it feels a bit rich, but after a short while, it becomes pleasantly matte. - For sensitive & acne-prone skin (soothing effect): ★★★★★ Usually, when trying a new product, it takes about 3 days for my skin to adapt, but this product is so gentle that you can use it with confidence!! It doesn't cause new blemishes, and rather than reducing existing ones, you can really feel your skin becoming soothed!! Occasionally, it might feel like there's not quite enough hydration. But applying a cream solves that! Honestly, there are no real drawbacks. Soaking a cotton pad and using it as a mask is great for calming the skin. As a bonus, it also helps makeup apply more smoothly.
