  Pros

  🙂Spreadability This product spreads a bit more like a lotion compared to the 0.1 version. 🙂Moisture Even without applying a moisturizer, my oily skin did not feel dry after using this product as a serum.

  Cons

  Let me compare this to the 0.1 product from the same brand. 😩Irritation The higher concentration definitely caused some irritation. This was the first time I experienced irritation from a skincare product. At first, the skin around my eyelids felt extremely stinging. When I applied sunscreen, that area would sting, so I couldn't apply it properly. So I avoided that area and applied it elsewhere, but then a burning sensation started spreading across my whole face, to the point where I couldn't use any other products. I had to stop using it. After discontinuing use, my skin went back to normal, but when I tried it again, it became stinging and flaky, so I had to stop using it again. 😕Breakouts One of the things I liked most about the 0.1 product was that it really helped reduce my usual breakouts and bumps, with noticeable effects. But I didn't see the same great results with this product, even though the only difference is the concentration. I find that quite puzzling and surprising.

  Tip

  I'd recommend that people with sensitive skin avoid this product. Even though I'm not that sensitive or delicate, I just couldn't seem to tolerate it. I'd suggest starting with the 0.1 version first.

  Pros

  The device was neat and clean, and the opening method was like applying ointment, which felt more hygienic. The texture was also good.

  Cons

  It says to use it 2-3 times a week when first using it, and I've been doing that, but yesterday the area under my eyes felt irritated... I only used a tiny bit. And it says the standard is to review it after 2-3 weeks of use, and that's also on the event page, but I feel the review period is a bit short.

  Tip

  It's important to start with a small amount and gradually increase the amount, and using it every other day would be a good idea.

  Pros

  The texture was slightly thick, but the spreadability was good. As it's a refrigerated product, it felt refreshing when applied, which was great! Even with my sensitive skin, I didn't experience any breakouts or troubles.

  Cons

  The tube packaging was a bit inconvenient to open and close. You really need to be careful with the amount you use. Even when I only applied a small amount every other day, my mouth area and cheeks started peeling, and the eye area felt irritated the next day.

  Tip

  Quantity control is essential! Apply less than you think you need!
