It applies smoothly and leaves my skin feeling sleek and refreshed after washing!
ConsThe scent... perhaps because it's rice wine-based, there's a bit of an alcohol smell. Every time I use it, the fragrance seems a bit strong.

As a male in my 20s with dry skin, I apply sunscreen and brightening moisturizer daily, along with BB cream when going out. I always do a double cleanse. I was in need of a cleansing oil when I won this, and after using it for a few days, here's my take: The cleansing effectiveness might not meet the expectations of typical consumers looking for a cleansing oil. However, as someone with dry skin, I found it quite suitable. Even after double cleansing, my skin didn't feel tight, which is great for a man who doesn't wear heavy makeup. It didn't leave any residue, and my skin felt somewhat moisturized after use. Summary: Recommended for: Dry, sensitive skin Application: Adequately rich without being too thick Finish: Non-sticky with decent hydration Skin improvement: Average Value for money: Average
ConsThe scent... While I'm sensitive to fragrances, this one is questionable even for those who aren't. It's hard to imagine who would enjoy it. There's an alcohol-like smell, perhaps due to the ingredients. Though an adjustment period might be necessary, the scent creates a high barrier to entry for this product. The mild cleansing power could be seen as both a pro and a con. However, I wonder if it's enough of a selling point for a cleansing oil. Honestly, considering the main consumer base is likely women, a cleansing milk might be more suitable. It may not work well for those with oily skin. That said, if you have dry, sensitive skin and dislike the sticky or tight feeling after using oils, this product might be a good fit. Summary: Not recommended for: Oily skin Skin issues or allergies: None observed Personal cons: 1. Scent 2. Low cleansing effectiveness

I have oily skin, so I focused on cleansing my point makeup and areas with excess sebum. While waterproof mascara took a bit longer to remove, it effectively cleaned off eyeliner and eyeshadow. Lip products came off easily too. Although it didn't necessarily remove sebum, I could visibly see my skin becoming more balanced, which was great. There was no eye irritation at all.
ConsI was taken aback by the scent - it smelled like rice makgeolli or alcohol? The fragrance was a bit off-putting. I was also disappointed to feel a slight residue left on my skin.
TipIt seems like a decent cleansing oil with good ingredients for everyday use. Personally, I think it would be even better if they improved the scent and the residue (though some might perceive this as hydration or moisturizing, depending on the individual).

Texture The formula is incredibly lightweight and fluid. When rolling it on damp skin, it doesn't feel thick or sticky, making the application process a breeze. (There's a slight downside to this, which I'll mention in the 'Cons' section below.) 2. Ingredients Given that cleansers come into direct contact with eyes and mouth, ingredient sensitivity is crucial. Fortunately, this product doesn't contain any particularly concerning ingredients and didn't cause any blemishes after use. 3. Cleansing Effectiveness I'd say it offers moderate cleansing power.
Cons1. Scent While I'm not usually sensitive to fragrances, this has an odd industrial alcohol-like smell. I wasn't expecting a rich rice wine aroma, but I think I would have preferred it to be completely unscented. 2. User Experience As mentioned in the pros, the fluid texture makes it easy to roll on, but it takes longer than other cleansers for the white emulsion to appear (it's almost tiring to keep rolling - you might find yourself wondering when the white residue will stop coming out). 3. Double Cleansing Needed There's a bit of residue left, so I end up following up with a foam cleanser. (To be fair, I do this with other products too, so it's not a major drawback. But if you're looking for a one-step cleanse, keep this in mind.)
TipTake your time with the emulsification process - more so than with other products!
