Even when I used a cotton pad to absorb it, there was no oily residue, which was great :) - Texture💦: The watery texture was slightly thin, which made it easy to apply all over the face :) - Fragrance🌸: Hmm... the fragrance is almost unscented, but there's a faint herbal scent like my mom's skincare + traditional medicine? But in my case, I liked it ㅎㅎ The fragrance wasn't too strong, so there was no burden even after applying it! - Packaging🍂: The opaque brown container made it easy to check the volume, and it looked neat. The amount that came out with one pump was more than I expected, which was good. 2-3 pumps were enough to cover my entire face. - Ingredients🌲: Since it contains ingredients good for dry skin, the moisturizing effect lasted for a long time after application ㅎㅎ Also, I actually felt that my redness decreased, and my skin texture became much smoother. With the inclusion of exosomes, energy, and peptides, my sensitive skin seemed to stabilize more quickly.
Cons- Price: The price range was a bit higher than I expected :) - Other than that, after using it for almost 2 weeks, there were no breakouts, and it was gentle, which was good!
Tip- I also used the serum and cream from the Biome Activate line that came as a sample. They also worked well for my sensitive skin, and using them together made the moisturizing effect last longer and made my skin feel even softer ㅎㅎ I'd like to purchase a full-size bottle of the skin booster and the serum/cream as well.

But this product has a runny formula, which I liked. ✔️ I thought the product would have a strong herbal scent since it's an oriental medicine product, but it actually has almost no fragrance. ✔️ Despite having a runny formula, it doesn't feel sticky and absorbs completely in one application. Runny formulas are usually quite sticky, and skin-type products have no stickiness but can feel drying, but this product has a formula, texture, and dryness that I'm really satisfied with. ✔️ During seasonal changes, my skin becomes sensitive and extremely dry, so I'm very particular about my skincare routine. But after using this product, my skincare steps have decreased.
Cons✔️ There's nothing disappointing about this product. When I first used it, the absorption was so good that I felt like I hadn't applied enough, so I ended up applying it multiple times, but that wasn't necessary!
Tip✔️ After cleansing, I apply it all over my face. I also use it as a soothing mask when my skin needs calming or feels very dry - it's the best! :-)

It's less watery than a runny type, but not as thin as a water-based product, with a slight viscosity, so I tried it as a cleansing toner and also absorbed it with my hands, and the cotton pad wasn't bad either, but I preferred absorbing it with my hands. - Fragrance I was worried about the fragrance because of the fermented ginseng ingredients, but there's no traditional herbal scent, and the product's own fragrance is not pronounced. - What I liked I like lightweight products, so I was just using a cleansing toner and an essence to address the inner dryness, but this toner alone was able to fully address the inner dryness. It's not a heavy, slippery product, and the absorption is quick, so it felt refreshing. It feels like it's just preparing the skin for the next skincare steps. If you, like me, struggle with inner dryness, and are wondering what toner to use as the first step in your skincare routine to address that, I'd recommend this.
ConsWhen I used it on my skin after peeling and it became a little sensitive, there was a stinging sensation and itchiness around my chin area. I think those with incompatible ingredients need to check carefully.
TipWhen I used it together with the serum and cream samples, the synergy seemed to work well. The serum and cream have a rich texture, so I thought they might not absorb well, but the toner provided a boosting effect, and by patting it in, my skin felt really plump (though it did have a slightly heavy feel). Doing this skincare routine, my makeup didn't slide off and it absorbed well. As I approached my late 20s, I've become more conscious of creams, and ended up using heavier products. The toner I was using before had a slight slipperiness even when I tried to absorb it well, but when I used it with this skin booster, there was no slipperiness when applying makeup.

As someone with oily/blemish-prone skin, I tend to be sensitive when trying new products, but the Prime Ginseng Skin Booster felt soothing like a toner when applied generously on a cotton pad or patted in with hands. I didn't experience any irritation or breakouts.
ConsThere's really nothing disappointing about this product. It faithfully fulfills the role of a 'skin booster'.
TipI also tried the high-concentration fermented serum and the highly moisturizing fermented cream samples as a 3-step routine in the evenings, and even though the fermented cream had a balm-like texture, it didn't cause any blemishes. Particularly, when I had some product left over, I would apply it to itchy areas on my arms or legs, and it helped soothe and relieve the dryness-induced itchiness without any issues.
