It seems like it would be really handy to take on flights, just as shown in the ads.
ConsThe artificial scent made me a bit hesitant to use it. The watery texture means you need to apply enough product to the area before massaging, but the roller was too small to easily cover larger areas, which was a bit challenging.

Feel: Due to its fluid texture, it has a light feel and isn't sticky at all. Scent: It has a slightly artificial rose scent that might be hit or miss for some. Pros and impressions after use: I tend to apply a bit more pressure when using it on my scalp and décolletage, and I was worried the gua sha tool might break, but surprisingly, it's quite sturdy. The best part is its high collagen content. You know how some brands add just a tiny amount of collagen and market it as a 'collagen ampoule'? Those products should be embarrassed to even mention collagen in their name! This one, however, doesn't skimp on the good stuff. Plus, it uses low molecular weight collagen, which should absorb well into the skin. While I did notice some drawbacks, overall, if you're a gua sha enthusiast looking for a high-collagen ampoule, I'd recommend giving this a try.
ConsDrawbacks: The scent was a bit strong for my liking. It had this artificial rose-like fragrance. I wish they'd either make it very subtle or remove it entirely. It contains fragrance and perfume (though the exact percentage is unknown, they're listed towards the end of the ingredients, so normal skin types might not react sensitively). However, even trace amounts can sometimes trigger reactions in sensitive skin. Remember, it's not about blindly accepting or rejecting ingredients, but finding what works for you. Skin reactions can vary based on skin type, current condition, and formulation - no one can guarantee how your skin will react. Fortunately, my skin didn't have a sensitive reaction. Price-wise, it could use a bit more of a discount. The amount of product is on the smaller side, and collagen isn't the most expensive ingredient out there (compared to, say, retinal or EGF, which are often cited as costly ingredients). I understand that the gua sha tool and packaging might increase the cost, and it's especially great for gua sha enthusiasts. Still, more frequent sales for consumers would be appreciated!
TipThis is great for gua sha lovers! It's perfect for areas you can work with the gua sha tool and for targeting small areas with wrinkle concerns. (With only 20ml, it's not really meant for full-face application - you'd run out before you know it!) The gua sha tool is surprisingly durable. I've been using it regularly, even when applying other skincare products.

Not bad at all. The front part is ball-shaped, allowing for a gentle massage while rolling it on. When you open the top lid, there's something like a gua sha tool for finishing touches over larger areas. Initially, there's a pleasant cooling effect that feels refreshing.
ConsOccasionally, it's inconvenient when the product stops coming out mid-application. (When this happens, a few gentle shakes usually do the trick) The rose scent feels a bit old-fashioned. (It wasn't to my taste)
TipApply this before a modeling mask and you'll achieve wonderfully supple and bouncy skin that's absolutely to die for!

My T-zone gets oily within an hour or two after cleansing. ☆ Price: I got this as part of The Hwahae Testers program, but the regular price might be a bit steep. At 48,000 won for 20ml, it's on the pricier side, though sales might make it more affordable. ☆ The product has a dual-opening design - lift the top for a gua sha tool, twist the cap for a roller. The gua sha seems meant for massage, while the roller dispenses the ampoule. Since it releases small amounts, it should last quite a while. ☆ It's refreshing to use for massage when your face is puffy or tired. Having an all-in-one tool is convenient and less fussy than separate tools that need cleaning before each use. ☆ Despite being a collagen ampoule, it's not too rich for my oily skin. It absorbs well with a surprisingly light texture. I didn't experience any clogged pores or blemishes. After use, my skin feels more firm and bouncy. + After using it for a few more days, I've changed my rating from 3 to 4 stars. While I initially rated it lower due to the scent, which I really dislike, the actual performance is quite good. It improves skin elasticity, and the daily gua sha massage helps reduce morning puffiness and feels refreshing.
Cons☆ The scent is a major drawback. It has a strong, unpleasant cosmetic smell that's so intense it can cause headaches. This makes me reluctant to use it regularly. The fragrance really impacts the overall rating - I can't recommend this to those sensitive to scents. ☆ Being an all-in-one design where the ampoule comes out through the roller, I'm concerned about potential contamination. The part of the roller that touches the skin might come into contact with the ampoule inside.
