I haven't seen any dramatic effects so far. I don't plan to repurchase.

The watery texture makes it a bit tricky to apply with fingers, but it absorbs well into the skin.

로열허니 프로폴리스 인리치 포어 칠링 에센스

The dropper becomes increasingly frustrating to use over time. Given the watery consistency, the push-cap design makes application a bit awkward.

Perfect for a light summer base layer. As someone with oily skin, I found the water-like texture great for gentle pore care.

At first, I didn't use it much because it seemed too watery. However, despite its thin consistency, it provides surprisingly good hydration. Initially, I didn't notice, but the more I use it, the more I realize it's not as light as I thought.

It suits my skin well without causing any blemishes or irritation. Currently, I'm using this along with Skinfood's toner, Primera serum, and Physiogel emulsion. My skin feels comfortable and free from any blemishes.

I'm using it by applying it to a cotton pad, just like I would with a toner.

The formula is as light as water, but the dropper packaging makes it drip easily.

Feels light yet firm after application. Seems perfect for summer use.

It didn't have much effect on pore tightening or provide significant hydration. The auto-dispensing dropper became quite inconvenient when the product was almost finished. The bottle looks pretty though! I've used it all up and thrown it away, so I'm attaching a photo of the sample that came with it.

This hydrating essence has a lightweight feel that's perfect for summer! The texture is somewhere between water and a runny serum.

After using it, all the progress I made with my cystic acne over 5 years of monthly dermatologist visits was completely undone. My skin broke out terribly. Oh, the disappointment!

For those who don't suit it, it really doesn't work at all. It's absolutely essential to do a patch test...

I loved using the Skinfood Honey Essence so much, and I was thrilled when they gave me a sample...

It's supposed to be an essence that cares for pores, but I'm not sure about that effectiveness.

The bottle is beautiful, and it's a hydrating water-based essence. I've been using it during the summer.

It's supposed to be good for pores, but honestly, I can't really tell. It does feel a bit firming, but I'm not sure if that's actually doing anything significant.

Despite its watery texture, perhaps due to the propolis content, it definitely leaves you feeling like you've done a proper skincare routine after application. It's great as a first step, even replacing toner pads. Perfect to try in summer when you want to simplify your skincare.

I didn't notice any unique effects from this product. While it's not a failure, I probably won't repurchase it. The packaging really needs improvement.

A decent product that's easy to use. It's great as a base before makeup, as it doesn't cause pilling. For those with oily skin, it's suitable for spring, fall, and early winter. Even though it has a very watery texture, it might be too rich for summer use.

The packaging makes it difficult to dispense the desired amount
A slight alcohol scent is noticeable

Blemishes causing slight redness
Pores and whiteheads around the nose
Dry skin, but oil tends to surface in the afternoon after morning skincare
Shade 23 with deep undertone

Usage season: Summer to Fall
Texture and feel: Watery, fluid consistency
Additional notes:
- Though it's an ampoule, it can be used like a toner
- Light, water-based formula ideal for summer use
- Suitable for oily skin through fall, but might be slightly insufficient for dry skin

Since the formula is very thin, it'll run if you apply it directly to your face with the dropper. Instead, dispense some onto your hand before applying.

The scent might be divisive, but it's not overpowering. Personally, I don't dislike it.

Bought this after a YouTuber's recommendation! They said it helps with pores, but I'm not sure about the effects yet. The texture is completely watery with a dropper, which makes it a bit tricky to apply. I also use it as a toner substitute.
