Retinol is usually used only in the evening, so even a small amount lasts quite a long time. I've used both high-concentration retinol and retinal, and the Medicube retinol has a subtle fragrance and a light texture that doesn't flow like water, more like a serum-like ampoule. It applies smoothly without any stickiness, and the moisturized feeling lasts until morning.
Cons
There were no notable reasons for not recommending it. The price-to-quantity ratio was a bit disappointing.
Tip
I gradually increased the use of other products from 0.1 to 0.3 to allow my skin to adapt well, so I had no issues. However, for those using it for the first time, even though it is low-irritation, it is recommended to start with a small amount and gradually increase as your skin adapts.

I highly recommend this to extremely dry-skinned individuals. Even a very small amount spreads smoothly across the entire face and provides excellent moisturization.
Cons
The amount in the tube seems to be little, so it looks like I'll use it up quickly. ㅠ

The effects are so great! I've been using it lately and the bumps have been greatly reduced, and my skin just feels generally better overall? I will definitely repurchase it 100%.
Cons
The price is a bit expensive... But considering the effectiveness, I think I'll repurchase it. I bought it for around 40,000 won.
Tip
For normal skin (not sensitive), there were absolutely no side effects!

The product is effective in reducing acne scars and improving skin texture. I was afraid to start using retinol, so I only used it on the left side of my face for a month, and the redness has significantly decreased. I thought it would be ineffective since it's gentle, but my skin has overall improved, and I'm eager to try other potent retinol products as well.
Cons
It's moisturizing, but it can feel slightly oily. In the summer, I skip the moisturizer and use it alone.
Tip
The gentle retinol can be applied to the entire face. My skin has improved overall, and it has effectively addressed my concerns such as acne, pores, and elasticity. It's recommended to skip using it about 2 times a week to give your skin a break.

The product was great for beginners using retinol as it was non-irritating to apply. It had good spreadability and moisturizing properties. The packaging was hygienic.
Cons
Unfortunately, it did not help with my concerns about wrinkles, blemishes, and dark spots.

This is my first time using retinol, and I definitely feel like my skin's elasticity has improved.
Cons
The downside is that the price is quite expensive, and it may not be easy to purchase unless it's on sale.

A non-irritating retinol product I switched from Primera's Vita-tanol, and it doesn't feel as strong as Vita-tanol. After applying and sleeping, there's a distinctive brightening effect in the morning. It's suitable for beginners to use, but there is a drying sensation. Since it's not a high concentration, it can be used daily. Increasing the volume would be a good idea.
Cons
These days, there are many affordable and good retinol products available, so the price is a bit disappointing.

Since it was a gift, I didn't know the price and applied it evenly all over my face. But it seems quite expensive compared to the amount. It might be better to apply it only to the targeted areas. There is a slight stickiness, and when I look in the morning, it seems like the skin is peeling off. But I think it's the old skin shedding to make way for the new skin, just like when I used Strivectin.
Cons
The amount is too little 😢 Even with a discount, it's still expensive, and without a discount, it's even more expensive. The 30ml size is not enough to cover the entire face.

The concentration was higher than other products, which I liked. I was looking for something a bit stronger! Also, it has a fluid, watery texture that spreads well without being sticky. I didn't experience any irritation, and it left my skin feeling plump and bouncy.
Cons
The price is quite high, which is probably due to the high concentration. But compared to other products, it's still worth it, so I think I'll continue using it regularly. This seems to be the only successful product from Medicube.

It was great that I could use it with low irritation even on sensitive skin.
Cons
Except for the price being a bit evil, there's really nothing disappointing.
