As someone with oily skin, the excessive sebum production due to summer has really stretched out my pores. So, I focused my evaluation on this product's pore-tightening and sebum control functions. @Pore Tightening Perhaps due to the short period of use, I haven't seen significant results yet. I'll update this aspect after using the entire bottle. @Sebum Control The formula is perfect for the season - it doesn't feel oily at all and only provides hydration. Even when used in the morning before makeup, it leaves the skin feeling firm without any greasy residue. It strikes the ideal oil-moisture balance for oily skin types. In my evening skincare routine, I found it paired perfectly with a moisturizer to fill in any gaps. Highly recommended for oily skin in summer! @Application & Scent Imagine a water-like consistency with almost no viscosity. It spreads smoothly on the skin without any stickiness. The scent is very mild and refreshing, unlikely to bother anyone. Overall, it seems to hit the mark, but for sebum control and pore improvement, a longer period of use might be necessary.
ConsThose with dry skin might find the lack of oil content actually strips their skin of moisture. Also, don't expect immediate improvements in skin texture and sebum production like you might get from AHA/BHA products.
TipFor nighttime care, using this alongside a slightly richer moisturizer seems to strike the perfect oil-moisture balance!

Irritation level: Despite my T-zone being oily and susceptible to acne when exposed to rich products, this one felt comfortable without any heaviness or blemish occurrence. I was satisfied that it didn't irritate my sensitive skin or cause any breakouts. 2. Sebum control: As other Hwahae Testers mentioned, it seems to work by drawing out excess oil through the pores. Wiping this away and continuing use should show long-term benefits for sebum production and pore appearance.
ConsIt doesn't directly tighten pores or provide an immediate firming effect. Instead, as described, it works by regulating oil to inhibit sebum production. Those hoping for instant results on enlarged pores might not be satisfied. 3. Oil and moisture balance: The texture is firm without being oily, but it doesn't particularly add hydration either. You'll need to use it alongside your regular skincare routine. As someone with oily, blemish-prone skin, I found it satisfactory, but those with dry skin might find it lacking in moisture.
TipTip: The product instructions suggest frequent application. When I applied it several times throughout the day as I remembered, I noticed a significant amount of oil being drawn out through my pores.
