It does a great job of addressing dryness, maintaining moisture for a long time. It's like a protective veil for the skin, leaving a radiant glow. It seems well-suited for dry skin types, with a hydrating, plump finish that's not too heavy or too light - just right.
ConsThere wasn't anything I was particularly disappointed with, but the scent may be divisive, so I would consider that a minor downside. ㅎㅎ

Rather than being lightweight and focused on hydration, it was more of a nourishing ampoule, so it seemed like it could be used in the winter without dryness. In terms of usage, the quick absorption and smooth application were good points. The ginseng scent was also impressive, not feeling too artificial, though it may have mixed reviews. Other than that, the packaging was convenient, and the quick absorption made it easy to use. It seemed like a good product for a multi-step skincare routine!
ConsThe price was quite high, so the cost-effectiveness was disappointing. And if you have sensitive skin, the ingredients could be a concern.

Although the outer skin needs to be protected with a cream, I've realized that an absorbent ampoule is crucial for skin condition as I've gotten older. Since the effects of anti-aging products can't be verified in a short time, I evaluated this product based on whether it irritates my sensitive skin, how well it absorbs, and the texture and fragrance. The fragrance and color were pleasant - it had a rich, high-end herbal scent that I personally enjoyed, and the thick, yellow texture looked suitable as a gift. My sensitive skin felt comfortable using this product, without any redness or heat that often occurs with heavily nourishing cosmetics. It absorbed well, leaving a dewy glow without any greasy residue. The packaging also looked premium, befitting the product's price point. The ampoule didn't interfere with my subsequent makeup application. Overall, as a woman in her mid-30s, I feel this is a high-quality, nourishing ampoule that replenishes and strengthens the skin. I continue to use it morning and night, and plan to purchase it for my parents as well. Thank you for the opportunity to try this great product.
ConsAt first, I was unsure of how to open the lid, and almost broke it trying to pry it open from the top. But then I realized you have to twist the lid sideways, and the opening pops up. Be careful with that! I personally enjoyed the fragrance, but I can see how it might be a love-it-or-hate-it kind of thing for some people.
TipApply this ampoule after using a refreshing water-based toner. It absorbs really well, so be sure to follow up with a cream to properly fortify the skin barrier, especially during the winter season.

This product has just the right amount of oil, so it was great to use during the seasonal changes:) But it's not too lightweight either, which was even better~~ In my experience, it seems to have about a 6:4 ratio of oil to moisture!! It might feel a bit heavy in the peak of summer, but as the weather has gotten cooler and my skin has become drier, it's been great to use. Smooth application The texture is like a rich moisturizer, so when applied to the skin, it absorbs without any residue!! It seems to get absorbed well without needing a lot of patting, so it was really convenient to use in the busy mornings. Packaging There's no separate plastic lid - you just twist the top part of the jar to pump out the product, which made it easy to use~!! And for serums or essences, some come in glass bottles, but this is in a plastic container, so it's not heavy, which I liked.
ConsPersonally, I was satisfied using this product, so there's not really any major downside, but those sensitive to scents might find the fragrance irritating! It has a faint ginseng candy-like aroma.
TipThose with dry skin might be able to use this year-round, and even those with oily skin could potentially use it in the summer, as long as they adjust the amount. This seems like a great product to use during the seasonal changes and in the winter.

It spreads on well without being sticky, and it absorbs quickly, so it's likely good for dry skin types too. I didn't feel particularly dry even after just applying it and going to sleep. ✔️ I'm not sure about the ingredients, but it worked well for my extremely sensitive skin. Even a little bit of a mismatch usually causes irritation or my skin flipping out the next day, but instead, I noticed a slight glow. ✔️ The push-open lid is better for hygiene, and it's convenient that you don't have to close a separate lid.
Cons✔️️ It has a strong herbal medicine smell when applied. Younger users may have mixed opinions about this.
TipI'm not sure about the face, but I felt like it improved the wrinkles on my neck. Also, if you apply it twice before bed, your skin will have a glow the next day.

(This is a common scent in such cosmetic products) I checked the ingredients, and there was no separate 'fragrance' listed, but red ginseng water and red ginseng extract were included. ✔️Moisture, Hydration: It was great for my extremely dry skin. The texture and application feel like a 70:30 water-to-oil ratio. It's not overly watery, but has a solid, nourishing feel. As a serum, it's light and firm, not heavy. During the fall and winter seasons, I usually add an extra serum or essence with moderate oil content to my routine for extra inner hydration, and this was perfect for that purpose. ✔️Absorption: It absorbs quickly and leaves a dewy finish. With more water than oil, it doesn't feel slippery or sit on top of the skin, but absorbs well. ✔️Packaging: It has a pump-style dispenser that rises when twisted. It has a premium feel.
Cons✔️Absorption: However, after absorption, there is a slightly sticky, tacky finish, rather than a smooth one. Since many people tend to apply an emulsion or cream over a serum, as long as it doesn't sit on top and feel unabsorbed, this may not be a major inconvenience. ✔️Price: The price may be a barrier for repurchasing... It's good, but too expensive for me. However, the premium feel makes it a good gift option.
TipHighly recommended for dry skin types!!

As this is a functional anti-aging skincare product, it's understandable that dramatic effects may not be easily noticeable within the 2-week trial period. However, one of the positives I noticed was that 🩵 the moisturizing was good. The texture was less sticky compared to its formulation, and it was on par with the hyaluronic acid-focused ampoule in terms of hydration. My face did not feel taut after application. Additionally, while I was initially concerned about the 🤎 fragrance, it was not as strong as I had anticipated, and it gave me a pleasant 'ginseng candy' scent upon application, which I didn't mind. As for the anti-aging benefits, I will need to observe the results over a longer period, but for now, I am satisfied with the product.
ConsIt would have been better if the packaging allowed for easy visibility of the remaining product.
TipIf you have any anti-aging devices or machines at home, such as those for skincare, I believe using them in conjunction with this product would enhance the results more quickly.

It's the perfect product to use in the winter.
ConsAs everyone has mentioned, the fragrance is a bit off-putting... It's kind of like the smell of my grandmother's old cosmetics, you know? So I don't really reach for it during the day.

After using this ampoule, I changed my routine to toner twice, then the ampoule, and cream once, and the morning dryness has significantly improved. I guess I should have been using this type of ampoule for my age.
ConsWhile I don't have an aversion to the ginseng scent, it is quite noticeable.
