But after using it for over a month, I noticed that my pores are less of a concern now, so it seems to have an effect on my pores. And the flakiness that would show up no matter what base makeup I used has definitely decreased as well👍 Texture, Finish☁️ The watery essence texture absorbs quickly, and using it doesn't make my makeup slip or anything. The finish is so refreshing that I just want to keep applying it. Fragrance☁️ The fragrance is barely noticeable, so it feels unscented to me. Packaging☁️ The pump-type packaging is easy to use, lightweight in the hand, and the simple design is nice.
ConsThe downside is that since the texture is so watery, even though it's a large volume for an essence, I feel like I'll use it up quickly. It's become very lightweight.

I tried it out, but it didn't meet my expectations.😢 Since I tend to have sensitive skin reactions when using products for oily skin or pores, I guess there's not much I can do about it.ㅠㅠ Moisture I'm not sure if the powerful sebum-controlling ingredients would work well for me, even in the summer when I want something lightweight. As someone with very dry skin, I found it too drying. The finish is refreshing and lightweight, though!
ConsBreakouts I used it twice and after that, my cheeks started itching and a couple of pimples popped up.ㅠㅠ It's a shame, but it just doesn't work for me.
TipI would recommend this to those with oily skin or those who want to use a lightweight product in the summer.

It has excellent absorption. 😀 After application, it feels refreshing and smooth without any stickiness.
ConsIt seeps in and feels moisturizing, but there is a tightening sensation. Just like the name 'lock essence', it has a constricting feeling. That's why it may feel dry and tight.
TipI'm not sure if the tightening sensation is due to dryness or the constricting effect. But there is a tightening feeling. If you have dry skin, it would be good to apply an additional moisturizing essence or cream. I applied it to my son who has oily skin and acne-prone skin, and the excessive oil that was bursting out overnight seems to have reduced a lot.

I also have sensitive skin and tend to get irritated in different seasons, so I'm particularly careful about managing my skin in the summer and exfoliating. When I saw the Real Barrier Pore Minimizing Toner, I thought it was exactly what I needed - a product that can remove dead skin cells while also providing hydration. The product has a runny, watery texture and an unappealing color. While the runny texture means it has good viscosity, it applies smoothly and absorbs quickly without any stickiness. Even though I have sensitive skin, I didn't experience any irritation or breakouts from using this product. The pump packaging also makes it easy to dispense and use.
ConsI'm not sure if this product is actually improving my dead skin cell issue. I may need to use it consistently for a month to see results. It's also difficult to check how much product is left in the container. While the lightweight, non-oily texture felt nice on my dry skin, I still felt like it wasn't quite enough hydration for me.

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.ProsThis hydrating toner is suitable for those with dehydrated skin! It has excellent spreadability and absorption, giving you a similar feeling to using a water-based toner without actually being one. I typically follow a skincare routine of using a toner, ampoule, oil, and cream, so I found this product to be very pleasant to use as it is not oily but still refreshing. However, those looking to use this as a standalone toner or ampoule replacement may need to choose a more emollient product or layer an additional ampoule or serum to avoid dryness. I highly recommend this, especially for those with oily skin!
ConsThe opaque packaging makes it difficult to intuitively gauge how much product is left. While it claims to have sebum control benefits, I haven't noticed significant effects yet, as I've only been using it for less than 4 weeks. I'll have to provide an update after more extended use.
TipIf using this product during the dry winter season, you may want to consider adding an ampoule or oil to your routine to prevent dryness.

It is recommended for those who do not prefer a thick, creamy texture even in the winter. It is not that it dries out quickly due to the freshness, but rather a fresh feeling combined with moisture.
ConsThose with dry skin may find it a bit lightweight. It would be good to use it with an oil or a heavier cream.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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.ProsFirst of all, the texture is exactly the type of runny essence that I love - there's no stickiness at all, and the absorption is very fast. It's a great texture for layering creams. It might be too lightweight to use on its own, but since I have an oily skin type even in the winter, the refreshing essence works well for me when I need to apply an extra layer of cream. And it's a gentle essence, which I like. Even though it has exfoliating ingredients, it doesn't irritate my sensitive skin at all. It's super gentle! The pore-care essences need to be used consistently for a long time to see noticeable effects, so I'll have to use it more to see the results. But as winter came, I started getting some flaky skin on my cheeks and between my brows, and using this has helped reduce that a bit, which I'm satisfied with so far! There's no irritation, and the flakiness has decreased a bit, so I'm planning to continue using it. :) I'll update again in a month.
ConsIt might be a bit too lightweight for those with dry skin, so they'll need to pay extra attention to using a moisturizing cream.
TipYou'll definitely need a moisturizing cream when using this in the winter. It's a great texture for applying multiple layers in the summer. As an oily-skinned person, I found that using this and then a moisture cream was just right for me. If it gets even colder, I'll add an extra rich moisturizer. I focused on applying a small amount to the areas where flakiness tends to build up, like the sides of my nose and between my brows, and gently patting it in with the warmth of my palms to help it absorb.
