I have sensitive, problem-prone skin, which is a bit of a drawback. Other than that, I stored it in the fridge and used it well last summer.
ConsHowever, the scent doesn't quite suit it. It doesn't seem to have a corn fragrance as expected.
TipRecommendedYou can apply it after your toner. A downside is that while it does apply with a nice bouncy texture, it wasn't very effective on areas with adult acne since I have sensitive skin. On the plus side, the quantity is quite generous, and I'm grateful for the thoughtful touch of including a handwritten note.

The texture is transparent and slightly viscous, like nasal mucus, but not too thick. When you smell it, there's a slightly unique scent. I think they mentioned it's the natural fragrance of the ingredients. Among products claiming to be effective for pores, I haven't seen much results from many, but while this one doesn't have dramatic effects, I feel like my pores are less noticeable when I wake up in the morning after applying it. I know it's difficult for cosmetics to actually shrink pores, so I'm satisfied with this level of effectiveness. After using it all up, you can just replace the refill to keep using it!
ConsRecommendedThe ampoule opening is designed to dispense product when you turn the bottle one way and retract when you turn it the other way. If you don't clean it thoroughly after use, it gets messy with product residue all over it.

It contains thickening agents, so there's a slight residue initially. However, this disappears once you pat it into the skin for better absorption. ▶Scent: No added fragrances, so you only smell the natural scent of the ingredients. ▶Packaging: A transparent cylindrical plastic outer container houses an opaque yellow inner cylinder. This design makes it difficult to see how much product is left. It has a pump dispenser, which is very hygienic. ▶Review: This type of packaging with an inner and outer container seems to be trendy lately. Usually, serums come in this packaging, so I was surprised to see an ampoule like this. The texture is less viscous, closer to a serum-emulsion hybrid. The ingredients are genuinely gentle and high-quality, which piqued my interest as someone with super sensitive skin. For oily skin, I wouldn't recommend it for summer (if you prefer light, hydration-focused skincare, you might find the initial residue uncomfortable and need a fan to help it absorb). If you do use it, maybe just pair it with a toner. However, I think it'll be more appealing in fall and winter. It's marketed as a pore and oil-moisture balance care product, and I did notice less oil production where I applied it. However, I experienced some blemishes on my chin, so I've been avoiding that area when using it.
ConsRecommendedIt seems this product may cause blemishes depending on your skin type. Please use with caution.

It's a product that targets pores and brightening, and it really seems to work for me. At first, I thought it was a bit pricey, but I've noticed it goes on sale quite often. Above all, the more I use it, the more I love it. Even though I still have some left, I'm already planning to repurchase!
ConsThe texture feels slightly sticky when applied to the skin. It's like absorbing the remaining essence after using a sheet mask.
TipRecommendedI used this together with the Scinic First Essence, and it seems to create a much better synergy.

Cons- There's a slightly sticky feeling. I'm not sure if it's just my imagination or if it doesn't seal out air well, but it seems to get stickier over time. Due to the stickiness, it doesn't seem to absorb well, and I've found myself reaching for it less often.

I diligently used up the entire bottle!
ConsRecommendedThere wasn't anything particularly disappointing. If I had to nitpick, I suppose I felt like I used it up rather quickly, maybe because I was a bit heavy-handed with it.

As someone with sensitive skin prone to contact dermatitis-like reactions, I find this product seems to suit even super sensitive skin well. 2. I have combination dehydrated skin, and usually when I use products with a very light texture, they evaporate quickly leaving my skin dry. However, this product absorbs well while keeping my skin hydrated without feeling sticky, which I love. 3. I even applied it to my boyfriend, and he said it felt moisturizing and gentle on his skin. 4. I didn't notice my complexion brightening after just a couple of uses, but after consistently applying it twice daily, morning and night, I could see my skin gradually becoming more radiant. 5. The packaging is hygienic as it's not a screw-top lid, but rather a pump dispenser that activates when you twist it.
Cons1. It's so good that I wish it came in a larger size. 2. I would appreciate if they added a bit more brightening ingredients to enhance its skin-evening effects.
TipRecommendedFor best results, apply a brightening essence or toner before using this product. It really helps create that coveted 'Inner Glow' makeup look.

It's definitely a product I want to recommend to everyone around me.
ConsThere's nothing particularly bad about it. You can feel that it's a low-irritation product, so anyone can use it.
TipRecommendedIt's especially good to apply at night, and if you use it before makeup, it gives your skin a nice boost.

When applied, it gives a firm and tightening sensation.
ConsThose with oily, acne-prone skin might want to avoid this. It could potentially cause blemishes to flare up.
TipRecommendedFor best results, exfoliate and clean your pores before application. It feels like it firmly fills in the pores.

While many reviews mention disliking the scent, I found it had a subtle, warm aroma reminiscent of traditional root vegetables.
ConsRecommendedAs someone with oily skin, I felt it was too rich for me. While it does make your skin feel firmer, I wouldn't recommend it for those with oily complexions.
