The texture is not as watery as water, but not as thick as mucus either! It tends to be a bit runny. Application, Finish: It applies very, very lightly and refreshingly. The finish is moderately sticky, but it feels really light! The best part about using this was that there was no irritation. There was no stinging, itching, or anything like that, and after applying it, my skin felt overall more comfortable and calmed down. If you're looking for a mild, soothing serum, this would be perfect!
ConsHydration: Rather than feeling fully hydrated, it just feels light and gentle. This product alone may not be enough to fully rehydrate. I had to apply an extra layer while using it! Cooling Effect: It's not very strong! It just feels like applying a regular serum... There's no cooling sensation or drop in skin temperature.

ConsI wish they would come out with a larger size! It doesn't have a cooling effect, but it does seem to have a soothing effect.

I used the toner to refine my skin texture, applying it morning and evening. ➕ 1 Month Review!! I always use it before makeup...! It feels plump, so makeup applies well and doesn't dry out easily. It also seems to provide a bit of a firming effect. I feel like it's helped balance my oil and moisture levels a bit! ➕ I'm sensitive to scents, but there's no artificial fragrance, so there was no issue with that! ➕ The dropper-type packaging makes it easy to apply a few drops on my face and spread it around without feeling like a hassle. (On those days when I'm just too lazy to do a full routine!) ➕ The formula isn't too watery or too thick, which I liked. I've had issues with some products being too thin and drying, or too heavy and oily. ➕ The sturdy plastic packaging is great for a clumsy person like me who tends to drop things...! (And the pale green color also gives a nice clean vibe.)
Cons➖ There's a slight tacky finish after application. My hair tends to stick to my face a bit. ➖ There's not much of a cooling sensation, so I worry it might feel stuffy on hot days.
TipApplying a generous amount before a modeling pack makes my skin feel even more hydrated afterwards!

I liked that the formulation is not a watery type, but has a certain viscosity, so it doesn't just run down. It's easy to apply in multiple layers. 2. Since it contains a lot of cica ingredients, it's good for soothing skin troubles. I had a breakout on my chin, but after applying it consistently for a few days, the trouble was soothed without any irritation to my skin. 3. It has good absorbency and effectively tackles dryness. I have dry skin but don't like it to be too oily or have excessive moisture, and this product was just right. Even when I layered it multiple times, if I gently patted it, it absorbed right away and the moisture lasted, effectively addressing the dryness. It didn't just sit on the surface but absorbed well, which I really liked.
ConsI usually enjoy a refreshing cooling sensation, but this product lacked that even though it contains cica ingredients, which was disappointing.
Tip1. If you like the cooling sensation, you could try keeping it in the fridge and using it chilled. 2. For dry skin, layering it multiple times can help address dryness and lock in moisture for longer.

A small amount is enough to apply, and this product alone is sufficient without feeling dry, so applying just the serum is enough.
ConsProducts with cica ingredients usually have a cooling sensation, but this one doesn't have any. As it's not too thin, absorption is slower, so you need to make sure to absorb it well.
TipApplying it after chilling it may be more satisfying. Oily skin types may find it heavy.

Most products cause my face to become red and irritated. ▪️Product Texture & Usage The product is extremely lightweight and absorbs quickly. There is no heavy or stuffy feeling. About two-thirds of a dropper is the right amount to use. I can use it twice a day, morning and night, and it lasts me almost 3 months. For a 50ml bottle, it's a good value. ▪️Irritation & Soothing Effect Normally, my skin gets red easily when using skincare products, but this one doesn't irritate or worsen my breakouts, except for when my skin is in really bad condition. My existing small and large blemishes cleared up within a few days. I think those with acne-prone skin can use this comfortably. ▪️Long-Lasting Hydration I usually do a full skincare routine of toner, ampoule, cream, and acne/scar treatment. But on days when my skin is overly sensitized or oily, I just use this ampoule alone after toner. It's not too drying like using just toner, and not as heavy as using a cream alone. My skin stays comfortably hydrated for a long time. There's also no excess oil, so it maintains a good balance without causing breakouts. Using the ampoule alone does require applying a bit more, though.
ConsWhile there are some shortcomings, it is not entirely negative, and there are many good points, so there is no hindrance in using it. ▪️Cooling sensation The product itself does not have a cooling sensation, which is a bit disappointing, but if you put it in the refrigerator briefly before cleansing and take it out after cleansing to do your skincare routine, you can enjoy the cooling sensation as well, which is nice. ▪️Dosage control At first, the texture was a bit watery, so it would suddenly flow on the face, which was startling. I also tried filling the dropper all the way, and it felt like there were small grains, which was also surprising. But after using it a few times, you get used to it quickly. Since using too much of any product can have adverse effects, this is more of a point to keep in mind rather than a shortcoming. ▪️Packaging The packaging has a bit of weight to it, so if it falls off the vanity and hits your foot, it could cause bruising. It's best to store it in a lower place or keep it away from the edge of the vanity. (I wish I didn't know this either..ㅎ) The 50ml size is a bit awkward for travel use, so I recommend transferring it to a small bottle from the dollar store when you go on a trip.
TipIf you put the skin care product in the refrigerator 5 minutes before application, it can help reduce skin irritation and provide a cooling sensation.

But this serum was great - it provided good hydration and, most importantly, didn't cause any breakouts the next day!! The cream that came as a gift is also amazing, so I'm planning to purchase that as well!!🩵
ConsThere's not really any major downside, but if I had to nitpick, it doesn't have an intense cooling or soothing sensation.
TipIt's better to apply it in small amounts and let it absorb, rather than using too much at once!!

The fragrance is close to unscented and applies very smoothly. The texture is medium, not too thick or too thin. When applied to the face, it leaves a subtle inner glow. With consistent use, it seems to be able to subdue redness to some extent. However, it may not be able to completely calm severe breakouts or existing active breakouts. But there was no stinging or itching when applied, and it absorbed quickly, which I liked.
ConsI was hoping for soothing effects, but I didn't feel any dramatic changes or soothing effects that I could perceive. There was also no cooling sensation, which made me feel that way even more. However, it seems that with consistent use, it can subdue redness to some extent.
TipIf you lightly dampen a cotton pad with water and then generously apply the serum and refrigerate it, it seems to become a bit more cooling. I tried using it like a pack on my very sensitive skin.
