I was drawn to this product because of its relatively short ingredient list, with fermented extracts as the main component, and the absence of harmful ingredients. Another appealing factor was the potential to streamline my routine by reducing toner and essence steps. I chose it because fermented essence products generally work well for me, but the best part was being able to try the sample first before committing to the full-size product. Rich, oily, RICH! I have combination skin with a dry U-zone, especially during seasonal changes. Lately, my skin has become sensitive due to sudden blemishes after using certain products. I wanted to simplify my skincare routine and soothe my skin, which is why I was interested in using Isamu. Given my skin's recent sensitivity, I tried the sample before using the full-size product. The essence toner was indeed very watery as described, and the scent, presumably from the main ingredients, was pleasant even upon first use after cleansing. However, despite being called an essence, it fell short in addressing deep dryness or improving skin texture, even with multiple layers. Moreover, it feels excessively oily. My skin feels dry underneath but greasy on the surface, making for an unpleasant user experience and discouraging layering. Oddly, it feels relatively matte at first, but the oiliness quickly becomes apparent. My hands feel so greasy after application that I need to wash them before moving on to the next step. The cream from the same line also had more oil than hydration, which didn't work well for me either. The sample was tiny, but I had to stop using it after developing small bumps. While it didn't suit me due to the excess oil rather than hydration, it might work for those with dry skin if applied after thoroughly hydrating the skin. Make sure to test the sample before using the full-size product! - nb****Oily SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinRecommendedMar 19, 2025
I stumbled upon a sample of this product and it's absolutely amazing! My skin had transitioned from oily to extremely dry, so I was using skincare for oily skin. However, after cleansing, I experienced flaking and irritation. While searching for a solution for my extremely dry skin, I tried this product. Not only did it eliminate dead skin cells after cleansing, but it also hydrated my formerly parched skin, making it feel supple. I'm so glad I tried the sample! After finishing it, I purchased the full-size product and I'm currently using it. It's working wonders for me! After some time, I notice oil coming to the surface. Perhaps my skin is transitioning from extremely dry to oily? I think my skin might be acting a bit strange. - gu********Oily SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsDark CirclesRednessRecommendedMar 9, 2025
This product absorbs exceptionally well and has an excellent texture when applied. There's absolutely nothing to dislike about it. However, I wouldn't recommend it for those with dry skin types. - yo******Dehydrated SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsInner DrynessEnlarged PoresRecommendedFeb 10, 2025
This might be the best first-step essence I've ever used! It absorbs well, and I've noticed a significant improvement in my skin condition since I started using it. My complexion even seems to have brightened a shade! I think it would have been fine if it came in a slightly smaller size. I've found that using this essence as the first step, then following up with another essence creates a nice synergy for my skin. - wk****Oily SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsDark CirclesRecommendedJan 26, 2025
I love the moisturizing feel. It's a shame it's not more well-known! I wish they had sales more often. The price is a bit steep, which is unfortunate. - de*****Combination SkinWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresRednessRecommendedSep 26, 2024
Among all the essences I've tried, this one has the best balance of oil and moisture. It feels like a clear, nourishing essence (not heavy or sticky-slippery). In the evening, I layer it three times, and even without applying cream afterwards, my face doesn't feel dry at all. It feels like it's deeply absorbed into the skin! Perfect for those with deep dryness or combination dehydrated skin! It's truly amazing. I'm on my third bottle now. The next day, my skin texture feels incredibly soft. Despite its watery consistency, it doesn't feel like a simple toner but rather a nourishing essence. After purchasing it on Wadiz, I asked when it would be restocked. I waited eagerly for so long! But now I see it's being sold on Naver Smart Store. I'll wait for the Wadiz funding campaign (I wish they had opened it before I finished my bottle...) Apply it first after cleansing and pat it in several times. In the evening, layer it at least twice! Highly recommended - dm*******Combination SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinSebum/BlackheadsEnlarged PoresRecommendedAug 7, 2024
My skin has become really dry lately, with a lot of uneven texture and dead skin cells appearing. But after using this, my skin texture has improved so much! When my skin gets rough, I find that a rich, dense formula that holds moisture in works much better than tea tree or lightweight products. I highly recommend this for combination dehydrated skin and dry skin types! There's nothing bad to say! I'm so satisfied that I've been recommending it to everyone around me. I definitely plan to repurchase. - ct********Dry SkinInner DrynessRednessDead Skin CellsRecommendedJul 4, 2024
First off, I'm absolutely in love with the packaging! The glass bottle gives it such a luxurious feel, and even the box seems eco-friendly. As for the texture, it's perfectly balanced - not too thick, not too runny. This makes it ideal for layering multiple times. After application, I can definitely see my skin texture becoming more refined. And the subtle Inner Glow that emerges? Simply delightful! While it worked well for my dry skin, those with oily complexions might find it a bit rich. I'd recommend using this more during the winter months. - cy****Combination SkinRecommendedJun 13, 2024
First off, my skin has been in such a state lately that it feels like nothing I apply is being absorbed. However, yesterday and today, I used this as a first step to absorb excess oil, then soaked a cotton pad and left it on areas showing signs of seborrheic dermatitis before applying makeup. Even after hours, there was hardly any pilling, which alone is a huge happiness for me! Also, I placed it on the areas with dermatitis and didn't feel any irritation, so it seems gentle. The redness has significantly faded, and it's definitely hydrating and soothing due to its watery texture. I haven't been using it for long, so I'm satisfied for now. I'll need to use it a bit more to be sure! I also tried it with a cream I received as a sample, and when I mixed the two together, it gave me a dolphin-like glow? My skin looks really good. It works well mixed with other creams too! - ni******Dehydrated SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresDead Skin CellsRecommendedMar 28, 2024Reviewed by The Hwahae Testers

You can feel the deep moisture filling in, making your skin feel plump. It finishes with a dewy yet fresh feel. It seems to have a positive effect on rough skin. • Texture It has a milky, watery consistency with a slight thickness, but it flows smoothly. • Scent The fragrance is very subtle. It's barely noticeable, making it suitable for those with super sensitive skin. There are some ingredients that might not agree with sensitive skin, so do a patch test before applying it to your face. Its excellent moisture retention makes it suitable for use all year round. The hydration is so sufficient that you might not even need to use a toner.
