Disrupts Oil-Moisture Balance

Not Effective for Pore Care

Pleasant Scent

The glass bottle makes it too heavy. It has a natural scent, which might not be for everyone.

It absorbs quite well. Seems like a decent barrier-strengthening essence.

장벽 에센스

I wonder if I'm not finding the right technique to make these high-quality ingredients shine... I've reordered my usual holy grail product, so I'll try to find a good method. I think it might be better to apply this essence after using something like a toner pad to provide initial hydration. The key is to layer hydration and bounce after applying the essence. Next time, I'll test whether it's better to apply it before or after a high-concentration vitamin B, C, E + ferulic acid ampoule. I'll try it out and leave a review.

While it leaves some oil on the surface, it doesn't seem to provide any hydration deep down... It's the first step in my routine, but I've never experienced such a lack of moisture before. Despite the houttuynia cordata content, I can't really feel much of a soothing effect. It doesn't irritate my skin, but I can't say I notice any benefits either. I thought it would be worth the money, but... Still, I keep reaching for it because of its rich color. For combination dehydrated skin, this works well with a hyaluronic acid serum and squalane cream. Rather than just moisturizing, I needed inner hydration and squalane.

Hmm... The merit lies in its soothing ingredients like houttuynia cordata, squalane, green tea, and other antioxidant protective components. Plus, it even has collagen extract. The synergy increases depending on the serum or cream you apply afterwards! One advantage is that this essence at least doesn't cause skin irritation.

It has a slightly viscous texture, but I recommend using it as a toner substitute.

I bought this because it was said to have a soothing effect, but personally, I don't think it has any calming properties. At first, I got a few blemishes after using this... However, it does have good moisturizing power.

I used this as a toner substitute, and I liked the scent. It also provided good hydration. I used it throughout last fall. Even though I used an exfoliating toner, it still had moisturizing properties. As I have dry skin, I applied an additional essence, but for those with oily skin, this alone might be sufficient :)

However, the bottle design makes it a bit messy to use, which I'm not fond of. Also, if you accidentally get too much in your eyes, it can cause a tingling sensation.

At first, I was a bit put off by the scent, but I ended up really liking it. It absorbs well, isn't sticky, and sinks into the skin quickly.

Hmm, there's not really anything bad to say. If I had to nitpick, I guess the product lineup isn't very extensive, which is a bit of a shame.

It's absolutely fantastic! The texture is so comfortable, and it feels amazing when applied. I love how it makes my skin feel.

There's nothing really bad about this product. If I had to nitpick, maybe the packaging? The glass container is a bit inconvenient. Since you only need to use a small amount, a dropper bottle might be more hygienic and practical. I also bought the cream, wondering when it'll arrive...

I'm a sucker for marketing when it comes to houttuynia cordata products! Initially thought it was pricey for the amount, but you only need a small amount per use, so it's actually quite reasonable. It's a toner, but it's delightfully rich and moisturizing with a soothing effect.

The price seems a bit high for the amount you get, but I haven't found any major drawbacks yet

Even though it's only been a week, I can feel my skin instantly becoming more balanced

It might be better if it came in a pump bottle or mist form for easier application to the skin.

This product is truly excellent. I'm usually very cautious about changing skincare brands because it often leads to blemishes or skin incompatibility. However, I've settled on this one and use it consistently. With continued use, I've noticed a visible pore-cleansing effect. I'm currently using all three products in the basic skincare line.

I've been using it for just under a month, and while my blemishes haven't noticeably decreased yet, I'll keep using it a bit longer to see!

As someone with super sensitive skin, I find this product gentle and easy to use. It's also great that there's hardly any scent.

Soak a cotton pad with it and use as a mask to remove dead skin cells

There's nothing disappointing about the product itself, but the shipping took a month. I had almost forgotten about it when it finally arrived!

I was searching for a barrier-strengthening essence and decided to try this one because I liked the ingredients and the creator's philosophy. The fragrance and hydration are great, and I plan to use the cream along with it.

There's no cooling effect. The product container has a bit of weight to it. The opening where the toner comes out is a bit awkward, making it somewhat inconvenient to use. I plan to transfer it to a different container for use.

After washing my face, it usually feels very tight, but when I used this product alone, there was no tightness. The scent isn't overpowering, so it didn't bother me. Think of it as a toner with a bit more substance than a light doctoner, more like a skin. For someone like me who gets irritation from doctoners, it was comfortable to use just like a regular skin.
