It feels lightweight. I wanted a lighter product rather than a thick one, as I purchased it to use the device by applying another product on my face and rubbing it. This product is just what I was looking for, and I am satisfied. 2. Better than aloe I initially considered buying an aloe gel, but I often felt that aloe gels were sticky and formed a film, making me feel stuffy. So I looked for a non-gel aloe product and ended up purchasing this. Ultimately, this product doesn't feel as stuffy or sticky as aloe, which I'm much happier with. 3. Provides great hydration and soothing. After swimming in chlorinated pool water, my skin felt very tight, but when I used this product, the first thick application was fully absorbed, and the second application eliminated the tightness, providing great hydration.
Cons1. When I rub my face after the product has been absorbed, something like residue comes out, similar to when you rub dirt off your face. However, there is no such issue in the morning. 2. Perhaps due to the winter season, but the product is lightweight and gets used up quickly when applying generously.
Tip1. This product is effective in relieving skin tightness after swimming. Even when applying it generously, it does not feel stuffy, and you can apply it again without any discomfort.

It was the one that made me fall in love with Houttuynia cordata..! The good mistake of Tony Mori...?! The product description, the name, and everything about it are absolutely not a single grain of falsehood. The coolness is the moisturizing sensation itself, not menthol mint..! Incredibly fast and soothing..! No irritation..! Fast absorption..! Fragrant..! If you apply it moderately, it's refreshing, and if you apply a lot, it's also good as a sleeping pack with lasting power..! Imagine continuously submerging your face in cool (+ slightly fragrant herbal) water, that's exactly what it's like. Decisively, the amount is incredibly large. I only bought one, but I've been using it at home, carrying it around, and it's been a whole season, and can you see the remaining amount? ㅋㅋ I think it's a mistake by Tony Mori.♥ The reason it's portable is that it prevents it from getting pressed when carried like that (refer to the photo). No need to worry about carrying it around. However, it's a bit big.. While passing by the cosmetic counters, my skin felt a bit taut, so I quickly applied the sample, and it was truly a whole new world, and even though I looked for other products for a week, I ended up deciding on this one, and I've never regretted it once. No irritation...and so much to praise..
ConsThere's really nothing disappointing about it. It seems to dry quickly in the wind. However, the absorbed moisture doesn't completely disappear, but if you have dry skin, I'd recommend finding another moisturizing product to use together with it or turning on a humidifier, especially in spring and winter. But regardless of the season, it's truly excellent at providing immediate hydration and soothing. Oh, and this may not be a downside for many others, but I mentioned that I carry it around, and this is both an advantage and a disadvantage - it has a large volume and is quite big. The weight is also an issue. Since I have a job that involves a lot of moving around, I often think it would be great if a smaller version was available. I suppose it's better to just decant it into a smaller container and carry that around..?ㅠ
TipAs mentioned earlier, in extremely dry seasons like spring and winter, I'd recommend using another moisturizing product together with it or turning on a humidifier if you're indoors. Personally, I apply it right after washing my face in the morning. I have another essence that I like, so I choose between the two, and this one seems to work well when I feel a bit sticky or dry.

The dosage control is easy, which I liked. The semi-transparent green outer packaging complements the product well. - This gel type is great for use in the summer. When I don't want to feel any particular texture after application, this is a good option. Sometimes when it's really hot, I even want to avoid the feeling of moisture.
ConsScent: Compared to other Houttuynia cordata products, the Houttuynia cordata scent is a bit stronger. Those not familiar with the scent may find it unpleasant. I personally find the scent a bit too strong, so I'll likely apply it only to my hands and neck, not my face. Price: Given that this is a product often used in the summer, the price is a bit steep for frequent use. After use: For some reason, it doesn't feel very moisturizing, and it dries out quite a bit. So it may be difficult to use this product outside of the summer season.
TipSince it leaves a somewhat dry finish, I'll need to mix it with other serums or creams if I want to use it during transitional seasons or winter.

It also helps reduce facial flushing. The fragrance is not overpowering, and the large volume is great for frequent use when experiencing heat flushes. As it contains Houttuynia cordata, it seems beneficial for acne as well. The packaging is not difficult to use or crumpled. 💡Refreshing cooling sensation 💡Large volume 💡Abundant moisture 💡Good for oil control 💡Easy to dispense
ConsThe only downside is that it dries out quickly like aloe gel, so it's better to use it with other products. As I have dry skin, I had to apply this along with other products.
TipAs mentioned in the downside, it can be a bit drying, so applying it with other moisturizing products will ensure abundant hydration.

As soon as I applied it to my face, my skin temperature dropped significantly and the soothing effect was immediate, which was great. If you refrigerate it and use it chilled, it feels like a mask, so it's a good alternative when you don't feel like doing a full mask.
ConsThe downside is that, like all gels, it dries out quite quickly, so you have to apply a lotion or other product on top afterwards. Since I have dry skin, the soothing gel felt quite drying once it dried, so I had to make sure to apply a lotion afterwards!
