To really test the product's effectiveness, I used only this serum after toner. I tried it for its sebum control and pore-refining properties. The texture is very refreshing and lightweight. It absorbs incredibly fast, feeling light even when layered. After using toner and two layers of this serum, I noticed significantly less oiliness the next day, leaving my skin feeling fresh without any greasiness. Thanks to its oil-controlling properties, I didn't experience any new breakouts.
ConsPersonally, I felt it lacked hydration, probably due to its focus on sebum control. It didn't address my deep dryness, so I had to layer a hydrating serum on top to combat the dryness. When using it before makeup, it was almost too mattifying, making it difficult for makeup to adhere. You'll likely need to use additional hydrating products alongside this one.
TipIf you're looking for a serum suitable for extremely oily skin, you'll probably be satisfied with this. However, if you have combination dehydrated skin, make sure to use hydrating products in conjunction with it!

Basically, my skin tends to develop blemishes if there's even a small amount of pore-clogging ingredients. Recently, my skin suddenly flared up after years, which has been really stressful. While I've always had large pores since I was young, now that I'm getting older and summer's here, my already wide pores seem even more noticeable. That's why I decided to give this product a try. 1. It doesn't cause blemishes. I started using this when the blemishes around my mouth and chin were starting to calm down. Not only did it not aggravate the existing blemishes, but I also didn't feel like it was causing any new ones in areas where I didn't have any issues. 2. It seems to reduce sebum production. When I compare the times I use it to when I don't, I feel like there's less oil coming to the surface of my skin.
Cons1. It can be drying as it controls sebum. I already tend to have deep dryness, but even taking that into account, this product alone is too drying. You definitely need to use it with a hydration-rich product to balance the oil and moisture and prevent blemishes! 2. Since I haven't been using it for long, the pore-minimizing effect is still subtle. I think I'll need to use it more to really tell. While those with oily skin might be satisfied with this sebum-controlling product, those with dry skin might find it too drying. 3. The part where you hold the dropper seems to attract dust easily. Even when I first opened the new product, there was dust on it. So I keep my skincare products stored in a drawer.
