It has a nice, thick consistency, so you only need a small amount to target areas where pores are a concern. I dabbed it on generously, and it absorbs quite smoothly.
ConsI've been using it for over a month now, but I haven't really noticed any significant effects. Considering the price, it's completely ineffective. In fact, I think that famous product from the mung bean line works better! I don't plan on repurchasing this.

The texture is incredibly rich and I can feel it tightening my pores. While it may not actually shrink pores, I think it's great for maintaining them and preventing them from getting larger.
ConsIt seems to focus more on pores than on addressing blemishes. I don't think it's particularly helpful for blemishes or pigmentation issues.
TipRecommendedI apply it in the evening after using a sheet mask before going to bed.

ConsRecommendedHowever, I couldn't really tell if it had any effect on my pores... And the price is a bit steep for long-term use.

ConsRecommendedSince I have naturally large pores, I'm not sure if it actually has any effect on them.

I'm definitely going to keep using it.
ConsRecommendedSince it contains retinol, if you apply it in the morning, you absolutely have to wear sunscreen even when staying at home, which is a bit of a hassle.

When I use it at night, I can feel how smooth my skin is in the morning just by touching it with my palm.
ConsRecommendedThere's nothing I dislike about it! I really hope they don't discontinue this product.

My pores have become incredibly smooth, and for some reason, even those pesky little blemishes seem to vanish along with them. I have dry skin, but this not only provides hydration, but also strengthens my skin barrier, probably due to its excellent ingredients!
ConsThe quantity... Please, I beg you, make it just a bit larger... This price for this amount is heartbreaking. No matter how good the ingredients are... Couldn't you increase the volume a little? Or is that too much to ask?
TipRecommendedUsing this after exfoliating dead skin cells helps it absorb better, making it even more effective!

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsSkin type: Combination dehydrated skin, mixed Oily T-zone with widespread small blemishes across the face. Regular dead skin cell removal needed. Cheeks tend to be dry, causing foundation to separate. Skin concerns: Blemishes, pores, blackheads, dead skin cells Prone to small bumps with slight oil imbalance. Constant small blemishes, occasional inflamed ones. Larger pores on butterfly zone and nose. Redness present. Preferred texture: Light, non-sticky formulas with high hydration and low oil content. I was able to test this serum and cream for under $3 through a welcome deal. While the sample size was smaller than expected, not allowing for a full effectiveness test, I still wanted to share my experience. Moisture balance ★★★★★ Despite my blemish-prone skin that reacts to even slight oiliness, this product didn't cause issues. It felt perfectly balanced when applied after blackhead removal on my nose. Pores and texture ★★★☆☆ To be honest, I didn't notice any significant pore reduction or texture improvement from this product alone. Sebum control ★★★☆☆ Using this product didn't seem to reduce oil production on my nose. However, this could be due to inconsistent use. Quick take: A decent pore serum for oily skin types Repurchase intention: No
Cons- Minimal pore-reducing effect There wasn't an immediate visible impact. However, it may have helped prevent my nose pores from enlarging.
