There's not really anything to complain about... If I had to mention one thing, the dropper occasionally doesn't work well.

It's so affordable, incredibly gentle, and applies beautifully. Plus, it doesn't cause any blemishes!

시카-뮤신 진정 세럼

When I had skin issues in summer, I applied this and used a matte cushion on top.
At night, I applied it generously.
Now in October, I use it well both day and night.
I'm not sure about the ingredients, but it didn't seem to work well when used with brightening products.

I didn't experience any issues.
Some people might find the absorption rate inconvenient, though.

Absorbs well: It feels moisturizing, firm, and pleasant.
Absorption rate: Ideal for dry seasons, takes about 10 minutes to fully absorb. Even after that, it leaves a slightly tacky feeling when touched.
Hydration: Excellent!
Usage period: Since mid-April 2024
Recommended skin type: Dry skin prone to blemishes
Purchase price: 1+1 deal for 15,476 won (5,000 won off for first-time buyers)

I won this in an April event and have been using it when I have blemishes or dry skin. After a summer water activity that upset my skin, I applied this and saw immediate results. I've been using it consistently since then, which is why I decided to purchase it. Now in October, as the seasons change and my skin gets dry and problematic, applying this helps manage it well. I highly recommend it and will definitely repurchase!

When you want to layer it, mix with toner for a thinner application
Remember, too much nourishment can lead to blemishes

Naturally, due to its high density, layering too much can make it sticky
(I'd rather not use it if it contained chemicals just for better absorption)

★Glass container★
Despite its thin consistency, it feels substantial
Leaves skin feeling firm and supple after application

After application, it feels a bit sticky. Also, if you apply cream immediately after, it doesn't absorb well.

As I have dry skin, this product deeply moisturized my skin, leaving it hydrated from within.

I'm using this in conjunction with my beauty devices. The synergy is great!

Being a serum, it does leave a rather substantial feel after application. It's certainly not lightweight, so it might not suit those with oily, acne-prone skin.

If you're looking for a more refreshing, soothing serum, you might want to pass on this one!

As someone with combination dehydrated skin prone to blemishes, I'm quite satisfied!

The initial feel when applied is wonderfully watery, and it absorbs well.
The scent is a strong herbal aroma that might be polarizing. As a nature lover, I personally adore it.

After about two weeks of use, I've noticed an overall improvement in my skin texture, feeling much softer.

If I had to nitpick, I'd say the price is a bit steep for the amount you get. It's not something you can use generously without worrying about running out quickly.

First off, it's wonderfully hydrating and seems to have a soothing effect on the skin. Being a mucin serum, I've noticed significant improvement in my skin texture - it's really helped smooth out those rough patches.

After toning, I apply just a tiny bit of this cica-mucin soothing serum before bed, and I wake up with a glowing complexion in the morning.

Surprisingly, there's nothing to complain about. It suited my skin so well that even I can hardly believe it.

I absolutely loved how moisturizing it felt. My skin is sensitive and prone to blemishes, but this product revived my troubled complexion overnight. It was so effective that I wondered if it was magic. It definitely calmed my skin 100%. It's so hydrating that I've even stopped using my moisturizer before makeup.

When I first used it, I did experience some blemishes, possibly because my skin was adjusting to a new product. However, my skin eventually calmed down.

I was pleasantly surprised by how effective it was, even better than I expected. It absorbs well and quickly, and it's not sticky at all, which I actually prefer.

It's most effective when used with the toner from the same calming line. When applied in the evening, my skin feels soothed by the next morning, and when used in the morning, it creates an excellent base for makeup.

As I'm somewhat sensitive to scents, the herbal aroma gives me a feeling of using a natural product, but I find myself holding my breath a bit each time I apply it.

It absorbs well and has a calming effect, making it perfect for hydrating sensitive skin. The dropper-type applicator allows for easy dispensing of the right amount, and it seems to create a good base for makeup.

If you apply this serum after your basic skincare routine and before makeup, your makeup will adhere well without pilling.

Based on my experience, I wouldn't recommend this product for those with oily skin.

As a soothing serum, it really calms the skin when applied and leaves it incredibly hydrated. I applied it generously and didn't experience any dryness. After using this serum and applying makeup, my skin felt firm and the makeup adhered beautifully!

For best results, apply a drop each on your forehead and cheeks, then gently pat it in to help it absorb.

There are no downsides. Seriously, none. If I had to nitpick, I'd say it's a bit pricey, but that's stretching it.

As someone with sensitive skin, I was worried about using skincare products, but wow! This serum is the best I've ever used. Here's why:
1. Non-irritating: Absolutely no tingling sensation.
2. Great for blemishes: My forehead was prone to breakouts, but this serum really helped calm them down.
3. Improves skin: It enhances skin texture and absorbs well. Patting it in for maximum absorption works wonders.
4. Beautiful color: It has a lovely pink hue.

After using it for over 3 months:
It's fantastic for soothing skin (reduces redness and keeps blemishes at bay) and improving skin texture. This is truly my holy grail serum!
