It wasn't too oily, and as a dry-skinned person, it didn't feel bad when I applied it. Of course, I had to use other products along with it. I'm very interested in retinol, and since I started with a low concentration and gradually increased it, there was no redness, stinging, or peeling at all (applied every other day). It seems to have an excellent effect on fine wrinkles, and I feel it has been very helpful, so I think I will continue using it consistently.
ConsWell, I'm not really sure what the shortcomings are, but I recommend it.
TipI felt that the Hwahae serum and Hwahae Trial Reviewers complement each other well.

I've heard that Amore retinol is well-known, and I'm glad I was able to try it at an affordable price.
ConsRather than being disappointing... I've been using 0.1 retinol consistently, but when I used 0.3 on the eye area, I did feel some irritation. Those with thin skin should use it cautiously.

I've been mixing it with a moisturizer and applying it.
ConsApplying too much can cause severe irritation and is not good for the skin.

It works really well for me since I have very oily skin, so I've been using it for a long time. When a lot of dead skin cells build up, I apply it and it seems to calm things down by the next day.
ConsDue to the characteristics of retinol, some people may not be compatible with it, but it suits me well and I have no regrets.

I've only used it a few times so far, but I can already tell it's effective, so I went ahead and bought another one. In fact, I'm currently recovering from a slight retinol burn on my cheeks. As the dead skin is peeling off, my skin is becoming smoother, so I plan to focus on hydration to fully recover, and then try it again, being more careful. It seems to be triggering a rapid recovery of my skin, rather than causing breakouts, so I believe it's an effective product.
ConsAccording to the instructions, it is important to start with a smaller amount and try it for a day or two, then gradually increase the amount. Of course, it should only be used at night! In the morning, cleansing with a mild cleansing product and foaming face wash is essential. If you only wash with water, the effects will remain until the daytime, causing severe UV irritation.
TipYou must be very careful with dosage! Even though my skin is dry and acne-prone, I've never had a major reaction from using cosmetics, so I carelessly applied a generous amount without checking the instructions first. This resulted in a retinol burn on my cheeks. I became complacent when using the Daiso retinol product without issue, but now I'm in the recovery process, though my skin does feel incredibly smooth. In the beginning, be sure to use it only once every few days! I recommend those with sensitive skin start with a lower concentration.

I expect my skin will improve.
ConsThe formulation is like an ointment, so it's a bit disappointing that there's a salty residue left after use. As it's a new product, the amount may be full, so that could be the reason.
