Perfect for a quick morning application!
ConsI heard it was supposed to minimize pores, but I'm not sure if I've noticed any difference in that regard.
TipBe careful when dispensing - a little goes a long way, so press gently.

The dropper bottle makes it more hygienic.
ConsThe price...? And it's almost like water, so it runs down quickly - you need to be fast. I used up a whole bottle, but I didn't notice any dramatic changes in my pores. Towards the end, it doesn't come up through the dropper anymore.

But thanks to the propolis ingredient, my blemishes disappeared after using it. Especially on my forehead, where I've had tiny bumps for nearly 20 years... they're gone now. Since this is the only recent change in my routine, I'm sure it's thanks to this product! The formula is lightweight, absorbs well, and isn't sticky at all. It seems specially designed for oily skin types!
ConsWhile the lightweight formula is nice, it's so thin that it runs from forehead to chin in a split second. I really don't understand why they chose a dropper bottle for this...

I expected the essence to have a heavy texture, but it's actually a water-like formula that flows easily. The water-based texture absorbs quickly without any stickiness, making it great for oily skin types. If you have dry skin, you might want to follow up with a moisturizer after using this Pore Chilling Essence. I've been using it for a week now, so while I haven't seen any dramatic effects yet, I'm continuing to use it regularly.
ConsOne drawback is the dropper bottle. I'm used to dropper bottles with rubber grips on the handle, so this one feels quite inconvenient to use. It's difficult to control the amount dispensed - it often comes out all at once, making it hard to apply directly to the face. Instead, I have to dispense it onto my palm first and then pat it onto my skin, which is a bit of a hassle.

It seems to have a slight pore-tightening effect too! I love that it doesn't irritate my skin. The texture is very watery, similar to a toner. While some reviews mentioned disliking the texture, I found it quite nice. It layers well without feeling heavy and absorbs quickly, which I really appreciate. The packaging has such a refreshing and beautiful look!
ConsThe Lancôme essence comes with a dropper-style applicator (the kind that fills up when you open the cap), which isn't the most convenient. I think a traditional dropper (with a rubber bulb you squeeze) would be easier to use. Other than that, I don't have any complaints. It's perfect for summer use, though it might be a bit drying for fall and winter.

Despite the dropper bottle, it's surprisingly fluid, reminiscent of a water toner. It absorbs rapidly into the skin. Perfect for a fresh, non-sticky feel in summer. - Hydration & Moisturization: ●●●●● Initially, I thought it might be too light due to its quick absorption, but I was pleasantly surprised. After it sinks in, you can feel a deep, lasting hydration. Knowing it contains propolis adds to its credibility. Highly recommended for those experiencing dehydration in summer. - Pore Care: ●●●○○ While long-term use is needed to see significant pore reduction, the PHA ingredient seems to help with dead skin cells and sebum control. As someone concerned with blackheads, I've noticed fewer of them and smoother skin texture overall. The watery consistency allows for use as a skin pack on the nose area, which noticeably softens sebum. - Blemishes & Irritation: ●●●●● My skin experienced no blemishes or redness. I was pleasantly surprised by its gentleness, considering its pore and sebum control properties. It hydrates well without clogging pores or causing oiliness, preventing acne breakouts. - Overall, I'm extremely satisfied and will definitely repurchase!
Cons- The dropper seems slightly mismatched with the formula. It's a bit stiff and hard to control, which, combined with the watery texture, can result in a squirt-gun effect. Unlike other dropper essences, you can't apply it directly to your face as it runs off too quickly. - The price isn't exactly budget-friendly. While I got it at half price during a sale and found it worth it, I might hesitate to buy it at full price for a repurchase.
TipAs mentioned earlier, applying it to the T-zone with a cotton pad like a mask is great for sebum control and adds hydration and firmness to pore areas.

Definitely feels like it tightens pores. You can feel an immediate firming effect upon application. 2. Not sticky, and while there's a slight tightening sensation, it's not drying at all. 3. The scent is refreshing and the packaging is absolutely gorgeous. 4. The complimentary sample sizes are surprisingly generous. 5. After about a month of use, pores are noticeably less visible.
Cons1. The container... now I understand why there's so much talk about it. The formula is much thinner than the original propolis line, making it difficult to apply from this type of packaging. Even when being careful, it's gotten into my eyes multiple times, causing stinging. The dropper being plastic instead of rubber makes it hard to control the amount. 2. Like all pore-targeting products, using it alone can make your face feel uncomfortably tight. Be sure to follow up with an emulsion or cream.
TipApply this as the first step after cleansing, before other skincare products. Gently pat it into the skin to finish. Once it's fully absorbed, complete your routine with an emulsion and cream.

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.ProsMy skin is combination dehydrated, leaning towards the oily side. In winter, I experience extreme dryness, while in summer, my skin tends to break out with blemishes (especially small bumps). This product seems perfect for summer use! It has a water-like consistency that feels refreshing without any stickiness, and even provides a slight cooling effect. Despite this, it doesn't leave my skin feeling dry after application and offers a decent amount of hydration. While it might not be enough on its own for very dry skin types, it's ideal for those who dislike heavy, greasy textures but still want to avoid that tight, dry feeling. I'd recommend using this like a toner and then following up with a hydrating moisturizer for the perfect balance.
ConsDespite having 'Pore' in the name, I didn't notice much effect on pore size reduction or improvement of whiteheads and blackheads, which I had hoped for. The texture is so runny that it's more like applying a toner than an 'essence'. As a result, it tends to drip off your hands quite a bit.

There's a very subtle mint scent, but it disappears once applied. After applying once or twice, your skin feels nicely hydrated.
ConsGiven its watery consistency, it would have been better in a toner bottle. With the current packaging, one squeeze of the dropper sends it flying everywhere, even dripping down to the neck. The container is really disappointing.
