I really don't want to leave even a single drop behind, but the glass bottle has sharp edges, so even when I turn it upside down, I can't use it to the very end, which is disappointing.

I really recommend it. It's a light serum but has good absorbency, so it's not drying and is good to use instead of toner.
When I was at an overseas swimming pool and my skin was flipped over from the water and sunlight, I applied it and it was very soothing. I recommend it for sensitive skin.

센시비오 디펜시브 세럼

Using products containing citric acid makes my skin feel irritated and stinging. This product was the same - it was very irritating, and my sensitive skin got completely messed up. I don't recommend this for extremely sensitive skin.

There was an oily feel to it, and perhaps that's why the moisturizing power was decent. The combination and oily skin types seem to work well in the fall and winter, while the dry skin type seems suitable year-round.

Among basic cosmetics, the list of items repurchased more than twice includes:
Etude House Soon Jung Cica Balm - Good for itchy, irritated, and reddened troubled skin
Dr.Lab Hyaluronique Gel - Good for skin condition, skin texture, moisture-oil balance, and regenerative effects

If it's not on sale, the price is expensive considering the capacity, and when there's a little left, the dropper can't reach, which is frustrating. The dry skin formula may feel a bit drying to use in the winter. For those with sensitive skin who are prone to redness or have an imbalance in oil and moisture, they may not feel their skin improving. Healthy skin probably doesn't need to spend this much on this product. Personally, I think redness doesn't always mean sensitive skin, so those with redness may not see effects from this. Since this has a balance of oil and moisture, I'd recommend a gel or water-based type for those with redness, not a cream. I'm saying this because I think many people don't know this.

Sensitive skin people are complete fools if they don't use it. I'm very interested in cosmetics, and no matter how good they are, I never repurchase them. However, I repurchased this product because my skin condition was so different when I used it and didn't use it. The photo is of my skin before I repurchased it. During the time I used this serum and cream line, my skin never flipped over, and even when I received external stimulation, it appeared very weakly and quickly improved. At first, I thought it was just mild and well-balanced in terms of oil and moisture, but after using it for about a month, I realized, "Hmm, these days, my reddish trouble isn't coming out." It's moisturizing without being sticky, and the absorption is good, so even if I rub my face on the pillow and sleep, my skin doesn't feel rough the next day. When my skin is prone to accumulating dead skin and becoming sensitive, making my complexion uneven and dull, using this product surprisingly alleviates it. I bought it because it's a sensitive anti-aging product, and it's a shame I didn't know this before. Using it with a cream is more effective, and if you're going to use just one, I recommend the serum. If you're going to buy a cream, choose a rich one for combination or dry skin, and a defensive one for oily skin. I repurchased both the serum and the cream! My sensitive skin often experiences redness, enlarged pores, dry cheeks, and an imbalance of oil and moisture, which I've repeatedly tried to suppress. I realized that this repeated cycle accelerates skin aging. When I used expensive premium brand cosmetics, the oiliness was too much, and it irritated my combination skin, but I'm so happy I found a cosmetic that suits my sensitive skin and anti-aging needs! After using it, my makeup doesn't slide off, and it's well-absorbed. My skin has become stronger and is the best at protecting against external stimuli. My dry and sensitive friend also said her skin became more moisturized and clear. If other basic products that tempt me come out, I'll buy them, but I'll keep buying this product when it's on sale. The moisturizing effect is not greasy, so I can use a small amount in the summer and enough in the winter, and I can use it problem-free all year round. For sensitive people, it's also helpful to apply hair products only to the areas that don't touch the face skin and change pillow covers frequently!

+ 3 days later, the redness is completely gone, and only the marks are faintly left.

The quantity is really low... And if you apply too much, it can cause skin troubles.

My skin was really sensitive due to folliculitis, but when I applied it, it completely calmed down!!

There were no particular downsides, but if you're going to apply it with the cream, I think you should thoroughly absorb the serum and move on to the next step of care!

This serum has antioxidant properties and the formulation is moderately thin, not too heavy. It has an opaque texture and a slight oily feel, so it can provide moisturizing care. It is primarily used during the evening skincare routine. It has been very helpful in improving skin complexion.

The Hwahae Trial Reviewer said that if I applied it, the redness would disappear, but that was a lie!!!! It absorbs slowly and has an oily feel, so as an oily-skinned person, the user experience is terrible.

Expensive but not very effective. Disappointing. No good points.

It seems to have a thicker consistency and be heavier, so I'm a bit worried about how it will work when my face is in a frenzy... It's a somewhat scary formulation, almost to the point of being doubtful. It feels more substantial than creams in the same line. Oily skin types may not be able to use it...?
The biggest downside is probably the price.

Using the Bioderma Defensive Cream together when your face feels hot and painful can help speed up recovery.

There's not really any downside, but as a derma product, the price-to-volume ratio is a bit high. Please have sales more often~~🥲
I received a sample of the cream from the same line, but that one was just so-so.

It was such a huge perk that sensitive skin can use anti-aging products without worry! As my skin continues to be sensitive despite aging, I've always wanted to use anti-aging products but couldn't choose them with peace of mind. It feels like I've found the perfect product to meet that need.
The product makes my skin texture smooth, so it's great to use before makeup as well. There's no greasy or overly rich feeling at all - it just absorbs nicely and has the right amount of moisture and oil.
While the antioxidant effects aren't dramatically visible overnight, it's a product I'd like to use consistently.🥰

So far, I don't think there have been any disappointing aspects while using it.

I was able to use it right away without a patch test, and fortunately, there was no trouble or irritation at all.

I used the product that had improved texture care and radiance care when used for a long time, and it helped improve deep-seated dryness. It was a great product to use as the first step in my morning and evening skincare routine.

It absorbs quickly and doesn't feel sticky, which I really like. As someone with sensitive, dry skin, this seems like a product I would definitely enjoy.

It doesn't suit my skin. I feel like it's not absorbing well, and it's too oily, so it doesn't seem to agree with my skin.

At first, it seemed to work really well, but after that... it's a shame.

As with most products, long-term use is important for antioxidant products, so a week's worth of use didn't result in any dramatic changes in pores or wrinkles.
And these days, there are many affordable antioxidant products with simple ingredient lists, so unless your skin is particularly sensitive, you may not feel the need to choose this specific product.

It takes a bit of time to absorb. If you apply sunscreen before it's fully absorbed, it can get displaced later and you'll have to reapply it after the absorption is complete.

The scent has a subtle hint of xylitol candy. You need to smell it closely to detect the level, and the raw material scent is not unpleasant. There is little oiliness, and the fluid texture allows you to apply a generous amount without feeling burdened.

Since I had previously used retinoid products for antioxidant purposes, this product was incredibly gentle and easy to use in comparison. The more functional ingredients a product has, the more pros and cons it tends to have, but this product doesn't seem to have any particularly inconvenient aspects.
I've experienced stinging sensations or severe dryness after using other antioxidant products, but this product doesn't have those drawbacks, making it easy to use.

I have both vertical and horizontal pores, but I didn't really feel a significant pore-tightening effect. However, it was certainly effective in improving skin texture.
After about 3-4 days, I noticed my skin felt smoother and more refined in the mornings.

In dry seasons like winter and spring, I think it would be better to use this product along with a slightly richer basic skincare product. In humid and oily seasons like summer, this product and a light gel cream might be sufficient.
