When applied, it feels incredibly soft and hydrating, releasing a delightful floral scent with subtle, pleasant herbal notes. It absorbs quickly upon massaging, leaving no heavy residue or stickiness, but instead an immediate sense of deep hydration that banishes dryness. For dry autumn and winter days, an extra layer will easily combat the harsh weather. As an essence designed to revitalize your skin's natural health, you'll notice a deeper moisture level the next day, along with a more translucent glow and improved skin texture. It strengthens the skin barrier and provides anti-aging benefits, making your skin feel firmer while improving deep dryness and fine lines. With consistent use, it promises to gradually improve common concerns like fine wrinkles, skin texture, and dull complexion.
ConsThe high price point means it's not an easy purchase and requires some serious consideration.

The pump-type bottle made it convenient to use. The essence is brown in color! It applies smoothly to the skin and absorbs quickly without any pilling. I applied the First Care Activating Serum as the first step after cleansing! When applied to dry skin, it made my skin feel incredibly hydrated, significantly improved dryness, and seemed to strengthen the skin barrier, which I loved. Since lack of moisture and dryness can lead to premature aging, I appreciated that this essence is packed with hydration, potentially helping to prevent signs of aging. After applying the First Care Activating Serum, my skin felt so moisturized that it seemed to enhance the absorption of subsequent skincare products like toners and creams. I also noticed that after using this essence, my skin gradually appeared clearer and more translucent, which was wonderful! The texture is neither too heavy nor too light, making it suitable for use in all seasons without feeling burdensome on the skin or potentially causing blemishes. As someone with super sensitive skin prone to breakouts, I was pleased that this essence didn't cause any irritation. The added hydration also improved my makeup application!
ConsI didn't have any particular complaints while using the First Care Activating Serum!
TipIn addition to your face, applying it to your neck and behind your ears can keep those areas moisturized too, potentially slowing down signs of aging there as well!

I only added this essence to my regular skincare routine, and my skin condition improved noticeably.
ConsThe price... it's too expensive. There's nothing particularly special about it to justify the cost. It would be great if it were a bit more affordable.

It has a nice viscosity and a pleasantly bouncy texture that absorbs well into the skin. With prolonged use, it's great for deep hydration and really improves skin texture.
ConsWhile it's a bit on the pricier side, I've seen real results with this product, so I keep using it regularly.

It absorbs quickly while leaving my skin feeling hydrated. With continued use, I've noticed an improvement in my skin texture, and it's great for deep dryness too. This is a versatile product that works well for all skin types and makes for a solid staple in any skincare routine.
ConsWhile it's a good product, I'm unsure about repurchasing as I'm nearing the end of the bottle. There are many other products out there that are just as effective for deep dryness and improving skin texture...

It absorbs instantly, seemingly tackling deep dryness.
ConsAt first, the scent reminded me of herbal medicine or ginseng, which wasn't what I expected and made me hesitant. However, after keeping it in the bathroom, I don't notice the fragrance anymore.
TipIt's great to keep in the bathroom for immediate application after showering. My extremely dry skin has significantly improved in terms of hydration.

It absorbs well, leaving the skin plump and hydrated without any stickiness. The redesigned 6th generation product boasts a sophisticated look and extended shelf life, which is quite satisfying. It has a unique herbal scent, applies smoothly, and absorbs well into the skin. As a product I use regularly, I trust it and recommend it for its comfortable application without any sticky residue.
ConsThe main drawback of Sulwhasoo is that it's somewhat on the pricier side.
TipWhile exfoliating can leave my skin dry and tingling, applying this serum helps combat deep dryness and soothes my skin, which I found quite nice.

Its delightful fragrance, smooth application, and excellent absorption make it a standout product. The moment you apply it, you can feel your skin becoming wonderfully hydrated. It's particularly recommended for those dealing with deep dryness.
ConsIf I had to point out a drawback, it would be the steep price. Also, because it absorbs so well, you might find yourself using it up rather quickly.
