  Pros

  After using it for a week, the most satisfying aspect was that my skin tone became noticeably more even. My skin, which had previously appeared a bit dull, gradually became clearer, and the color difference between my face and neck area decreased significantly. Additionally, this product was exceptionally effective in controlling oil. During the summer when my sebum production increased, the shine on my face was significantly reduced, allowing me to maintain a fresh feeling throughout the day. The emulsion formula was lightweight yet moisturizing, lasting for a long time without any stickiness, making it comfortable to use on my body as well. When using it morning and night, it was absorbed without any irritation, keeping my skin in a stable state all day long.

  Cons

  First, the formulation felt a bit lightweight, so it may lack sufficient moisturizing power during the winter or in dry environments. Especially for those with dry skin, it seems to be less moisturizing when used on the body compared to the face, so additional moisturizers may be needed. Additionally, due to the characteristics of the niacinamide ingredient, a slight stinging or redness may occur during initial use, which could be a concern for those with sensitive skin. Of course, this reaction gradually subsides over time, but the initial subtle irritation may be bothersome. Lastly, the product volume is not very large, so it may be a bit insufficient for using on the face and entire body. In particular, it felt like it would be used up quickly when used solely for the body, which was a bit disappointing.

  Tip

  One of the tips I learned from using this emulsion for a week is that if you apply it to both your face and body, it's best to apply it immediately after showering while your skin is still moist. This maximizes the moisturizing effect. Also, when applying it to your body, it's better to apply small amounts repeatedly rather than covering a large area all at once. This increases the absorption rate and allows you to maintain a moisturized feeling without stickiness. When using it on your face, first tone your skin, then apply this emulsion, and finally, lightly apply a moisturizing cream on top. This allows you to enjoy the benefits of both moisturization and oil control. If your skin is sensitive, I recommend starting with a small amount on a localized area and gradually increasing the application range. This helps your skin adapt and prevents unexpected issues.
