Pros
I wanted to try this spicule product since it's similar to the trendy **shot that's all the rage these days! As soon as I applied it, I could really feel a tingling sensation! The texture is like thick nasal mucus that doesn't flow easily! I feel like my pores might have shrunk a bit...? But I think I'll need to use up the whole bottle to know the effects more accurately.
Cons
The dropper... doesn't work well. You have to press it really hard and use it carefully for a lot to come out. After applying, a huge blemish popped up. The amount feels too small...
Tip
You can probably just apply it to the areas where pore care is needed! Be sure to test on a small area first before use, as it causes a tingling sensation.

Pros
I'm sorry, but it's quite difficult for me to point out any positive aspects.
Cons
First of all, I was taken aback as this was my first time using such a tingling product. I'm not sure which ingredient is responsible, but if it's supposed to tingle due to micro-needles or something similar, I think they should have clearly disclosed this upfront. It was extremely uncomfortable on my skin, and although I was surprised, I persevered and used it for a few days. While I can't definitively blame this product, my skin, which is usually clear and blemish-free, started developing blemishes. I've since discontinued use. Additionally, I'm not sure if the proper amount of product is actually in the bottle, as the dropper barely picks up any product. After opening a new bottle and using it once or twice, I found it incredibly difficult to draw up the contents with the dropper. It was so strange that I contacted Hwahae for support, but they asked for additional information like videos. Since I wasn't planning to use the product anymore anyway, I didn't bother requesting a replacement and simply stopped using it altogether.

Pros
My skin type is oily with a lack of hydration. I've often seen the Mediheal brand at Olive Young, but I had never tried it before. What I noticed while using this product is that it absorbs quickly and isn't sticky, which I really liked. The texture itself is neither too heavy nor too light, making it easy to apply.
Cons
I have relatively large pores, so I had some expectations when I tried this serum, but I couldn't really find any advantages for me. When I first applied it to my face, it stung intensely all over, like I had applied a Riddle Shot product, and there was irritation. For the first few days, there were no changes to my skin, but as time passed, small whiteheads started appearing here and there. If I had to point out a positive, I did have a large blemish on my chin before using this product, and after applying it for about a week, I could feel that the blemish had subsided significantly. However, I'm not sure if it went down because of the time that had passed or because of this product.
Tip
This is not a product I would recommend to people with super sensitive skin.

Pros
- The non-runny formula made it easy to apply - It seems to have slightly reduced the pores around my nose - Good ingredients - Fragrance-free
Cons
- Although it was said to be suitable for sensitive skin, while it was fine on my nose, it stung when applied to my T-zone. I thought I'd get used to it after a few days, but for two weeks, it irritated my skin every time I applied it, aggravating existing blemishes and making them redder. I don't recommend this for those with sensitive, blemish-prone skin like mine. - Since it's not a runny formula, how about a pump container instead of a dropper?
Tip
I don't use nose packs, so I tend to have some excess sebum. I think it would be effective to remove sebum with a nose pack and then finish with this serum kept cool in the fridge.

Pros
I loved that the serum package was plastic instead of glass, making it lightweight. The dropper was hygienic and allowed me to control the amount as desired. I thought it might be too thick, but when applied, it was more hydrating than expected.
Cons
The heavy, bitter herbal scent was hard for me to tolerate as I'm sensitive to fragrances. At first, it seemed okay on my skin, but after about 10 seconds, I felt an intense stinging sensation everywhere I had applied it, so I had to wash it off immediately. It seems this product doesn't suit my super sensitive skin.

Pros
Pores: After using it diligently morning and night for a week, I didn't see any dramatic reduction in pore size. However! Compared to other pore-minimizing products, this one was better. Discomfort: It's practically non-existent. There's a slight burning sensation, but that's it. This was actually my favorite part about it. Other pore-minimizing products can be so painful they bring tears to my eyes. Super sensitive skin: Since my skin isn't in the best condition, I was worried about irritation or breakouts from harsh ingredients. But thanks to the madecassoside, perhaps? I was able to apply it without issues. Absorbs well: It absorbs similarly to other serums. The texture isn't too thick, so it's easy to apply lightly. Scent: It was fine. The cosmetic fragrance isn't overpowering.
Cons
While irritation is minimal, applying moisturizer over the serum causes a burning sensation again. The irritation can cause a slight redness on the skin.

Pros
Skin type: Dry, severely dehydrated Skin concerns: Enlarged pores, blemishes (small bumps) Texture and application: While not entirely water-like, it absorbs quickly like water when applied. It feels adequately moisturizing without being oily and is very lightweight. Nearly fragrance-free: There's barely any scent except for a very subtle cica aroma. You'd hardly notice any fragrance unless you inhale deeply. This should be especially appealing to those sensitive to fragrances. Generous amount: With 40ml plus the included spicules, I've noticed it lasts much longer when used intermittently. Using it every 3-5 days, it should last for quite a while. Effectiveness: While I didn't notice daily changes in the mirror, comparing before and after photos showed that pores appeared less visible than expected. Particularly around the nose area, makeup application felt smoother.
Cons
Irritation level: Compared to the previously used Li*se product, the microneedles felt slightly larger, resulting in more noticeable tingling. After the first use, I decided to increase the interval between applications. Blemishes: Possibly due to an ingredient that doesn't agree with my skin, I experienced breakouts (pimples and small bumps) on my cheeks and around my mouth after using the product. Even after allowing my skin to calm down and trying again, I experienced the same reaction. Dropper: The dropper seemed faulty, requiring multiple attempts to draw up the product. Despite the generous amount, it was difficult to extract the contents. Hydration: As someone who experiences dryness even in summer, the light, water-like texture naturally couldn't provide enough hydration. Additional moisturizing skincare products are essential.
Tip
It's best to use this product in the evening as it can cause skin irritation. Limiting use to once or twice a week would be advisable. When residual irritation is felt on the skin, thorough cleansing followed by soothing skincare is recommended.

Pros
My skin type is challenging to manage with wide pores, oily skin, small blemishes, thin and sensitive skin, and loss of elasticity. While using this product, I didn't notice a dramatic reduction in pores, but I did see fewer blemishes than usual. It seems this pore serum had a positive effect on my blemishes. Perhaps with consistent use, I'll see my pores shrink too! The dropper made it easy to apply a single drop to my forehead and sides of my nose. The formula absorbed well without dripping, making it convenient to use. Since it's supposed to work on wrinkles as well as pores, I applied a small amount around my eyes and experienced no irritation.
Cons
As mentioned in the product warnings, it does sting the skin a bit... I've been using it morning and night after cleansing, but it stings every time. It seems I'm not adapting to it!

Pros
I'm writing this review after winning the Hwahae Testers event! Skin type: Combination dehydrated skin with blemishes, large pores, blackheads, cheek redness, and super sensitive skin. Scent: It seems unscented, or maybe there's a very subtle herbal aroma. Texture/Feel: The product has a translucent color with a slightly runny consistency. When applied, it doesn't feel sticky at all. Instead, it absorbs into the skin with a nice hydrating sensation! Due to the ingredients, there's a slight tingling when spreading it on the face, but it doesn't last long or cause irritation. Blemishes/Soothing: I'm not sure if it has improved my pores or had a soothing effect yet. I think I'll need to use it consistently for about a month to see results! It seems good for oily skin types as it provides moisture without feeling heavy. Packaging: The container seems quite small for the price, and the amount of product feels limited.
Cons
The tingling sensation in certain areas is tolerable for me, but some people might find it uncomfortable. It feels like tiny needles pricking the skin. I can't really tell if it's improving my pores after such a short time of use. A few pimples appeared on my chin area, which might be due to this product.

Pros
The texture is slightly sticky, but it's less slippery and seems to absorb quickly. I've only been using it for a week, so I'm not sure about major effects, but I've noticed the blackhead traces around my nose have slightly diminished.
Cons
My right cheek is a bit sensitive, so while it's fine on other areas, it stings a bit when applied there. They say it might tingle due to the absorption of active ingredients, but if you have super sensitive skin, please do a patch test first. (I experience similar stinging on my right cheek when using Lidalshot 100.)
Tip
There's no severe stinging, so I use it even on sensitive areas. However, I apply a hydrating ampoule or moisturizer afterwards, which makes it less tingly. The product description mentions it works well with a hydrating mask, so I tried that. It definitely feels less irritating, and because it absorbs well, my skin feels nice and firm.
