Pros
I'm always worried about severe dryness, but I feel like I've found the perfect product. It not only provides basic hydration, but it also applies very thinly.
Cons
Is this a product that protects the skin barrier? I'm not sure if I can just use this one product, as it seems to apply too thinly.
Tip
At night, I layer on extra products and care for my skin. It never feels heavy or greasy.

Pros
It's great for dry skin as it's moisturizing and not too thick. It's watery but still hydrating.
Cons
The fragrance is quite unpleasant. The strong, musty scent bothers me every time I apply it.

Pros
It's great to use in the summer when it's hot. It's refreshing, lightweight, and moisturizing. The protective cap makes it good for carrying around and hygienic.
Cons
There was a slight kombucha-like smell, but I got used to it quickly.

Pros
I bought this to deal with dehydration, and it's moisturizing and great. I'm not sure if it's because of this, but my acne also seems to have calmed down a bit. Surprisingly, the photo I took has also calmed down..haha
Cons
There doesn't seem to be anything particularly wrong with it. Even though I have dry skin, I can use this without a moisturizer and it doesn't make my skin feel dehydrated.

Pros
This is a brand I discovered last year after watching Yuhee's YouTube video. It is relatively mild and has a moisturizing essence. I have combination, troubled, and sensitive skin. I repurchased this essence to finish my skincare routine with just one product during the summer. It feels a bit heavier than expected, so on very hot days, I can use the essence alone without needing to apply a lotion or cream on top. However, as the temperature difference increases soon, I plan to add a moisturizing cream as well.
Cons
The packaging is still inconvenient. I know they updated the packaging last year, but the essence still tends to squirt out to the side when I try to dispense it. You need to be careful when squeezing it out. Those who dislike a shiny, oily look may not find the kombucha essence suitable for their skin.

Pros
● The ingredients are gentle, and the product itself is quite nice. ● The spreadability is excellent. It's much more fluid than expected, absorbing like water. ● There is a bit too much oil content, so you'll need to use it sparingly. However, it's not an overly greasy, oily product! It's a somewhat dense, moisturizing product.
Cons
● If not for the scent, this would have been a 5-star product, but the scent makes it a 2-star for me. The sole downside is that the scent is so unbearably horrible that I can't bear to use it and had to throw it away. I bought this from the Huxley website when it was near its expiration date, and when I first used it, it spurted out like a water gun! And the scent is just so overwhelmingly pungent that I immediately thought it had gone bad or spoiled. But since it's a fermented product and still has a few months left on the expiration, I tried using it little by little, and it seems fine. However, there are reviews saying the scent is good, which is just baffling to me... Is this a matter of personal preference? The stench is just so overpowering, I even tried sniffing it directly to see if it had gone bad, and it made me want to retch... I'm not exaggerating. I generally don't like artificial fragrances and prefer natural scents, and most products with polarizing scents have been fine for me. But this is just on another level, and I simply couldn't use it despite trying to get used to it. I had to throw it away.

Pros
At first, I was hesitant to use this unfamiliar brand, but after using it, I've finished 2-3 bottles. After reading reviews saying it replenishes moisture well for those with dry skin like me, I started using it. As an oily-skinned person, I previously preferred watery, hydrating formulas and used them a lot. However, I was worried because this serum is not a watery formula. At first, I thought the formula wouldn't suit my preference and would be burdensome for my skin, but the balanced combination of moisture and oil content actually helps my skin maintain hydration well. Thanks to this, my skin didn't get too dry during the seasonal changes. In hot and humid summer weather, I would skip other skincare and just use this refreshing toner and kombucha serum. When I felt a bit of dryness, I would layer it several times to finish. I could complete my routine without having to use a cream, and my skin felt comfortable without any trouble. I tend to prefer gentle skincare as my skin is sensitive. This product is non-irritating and soothing. True to its organic brand, it has a natural tea tree or herbal scent, not an artificial fragrance. It claims to have anti-aging and brightening benefits, but I didn't particularly notice those effects. What I'm most satisfied with is that it's non-irritating and provides good hydration. The packaging with a pump dispenser is convenient for me. And being in a glass container, it's recyclable, which I appreciate. Glass containers can be inconvenient in the bathroom, but this one feels thick and durable, so it's unlikely to break easily. When I tried using a different serum after finishing about 2 bottles, I ended up repurchasing this one again. I don't think the benefits are incredibly remarkable, but it's a serum that provides comfort to my skin, so I decided to stick with it. Looking at the ingredients now, I see there are 2 potentially sensitizing components. I'd recommend those with sensitivity to tea tree, lemon, or citrus to try a sample first before using this.
Cons
For those with extremely oily skin, I would recommend using this more as a lotion replacement rather than a serum. Since it has an oily texture, it may feel occlusive if used as a serum and then followed by another cream or lotion, which could be burdensome for the skin. One downside I would note is the price. However, the brand does have sales and clearance events occasionally, so I would recommend keeping an eye out for those opportunities to purchase it at a better value.

Pros
The calming effect, no more acne since using this. Fully hydrated, no more tightness.
Cons
The price is a bit steep. The smell...the fermented smell...is pungent, but you get used to it over time.

Pros
It's dry but moisturizing, not heavy, and refreshing. This is my first time using the serum and I'm satisfied with it.
Cons
There are no disappointing points. It's good to use the kombucha toner, serum, and cream set together.

Pros
It's a life-changing product. The ingredients are great and there's no irritation. First of all, it's incredibly moisturizing and great for dry skin.
Cons
You should stock up when it's on sale. Get a couple during Black Friday or other sales.
Tip
Using it with a toner and applying the ampoule generously on a cotton pad as a pack is even better for dry skin.
