I have really sensitive skin with severe flakiness, but after using this product consistently, the flakes on my cheeks have reduced significantly! Hwahae
ConsIt's fine to do two layers, but if you apply more after that, I think the makeup will start to cake. 🥲 If you want to do more layering later, it would be better to fully absorb it first before applying.

And I often have reddish skin. It has an amazing soothing effect. At first, when I pumped it, a thick and dense amount came out, and I thought 'Oh no, will this really suit me?' but that was just a needless worry. It truly absorbs deeply and moisturizes my skin so well, leaving me with the best feeling. Seeing my irritated skin getting soothed so nicely, I was so moved. 🥺 And I'm really grateful that blemishes go down quickly too. Since it's made with only gentle ingredients that even children can use, I also apply it to my elementary school-aged sibling, and the improvement in their skin's appearance is clearly visible. I highly recommend it, for real.
ConsThere isn't any, really there isn't. It's really great.
TipI plan to purchase the entire VT Glucanum line. I tried one essence and ended up trusting this company. The line consists of toner, essence, and cream, and I strongly recommend the 3-piece set to those who don't use the toner and cream I'm currently using.

A single pump can spread evenly across the entire face, leaving a refreshing finish without any stickiness! The absorption is quite fast, despite the viscous formulation! After the toner step, it quickly moisturizes the skin👍🏻 The Glucamannan Essence contains white fungus extract and beta-glucan. In my case, as a combination skin type, the T-zone area is adequately oily, and this level of moisturization is sufficient even in the winter😁 It seems suitable for most skin types, except for those with severe dryness. The pump packaging allows for clean and easy application~
ConsIn my case, I felt that the moisturizing power was adequate, but those who want a very strong moisturizing power may find it slightly lacking. In other areas, I didn't particularly notice any issues. Overall, I think it is a product that performs averagely.
TipAs mentioned earlier, if you feel that your skin lacks moisture, it would be a good idea to supplement it with a product with excellent moisturizing properties in the toner or cream step.

As I get older, my skin has become more sensitive and delicate, causing me a lot of concern. While looking for a moisturizing essence to balance my oil and moisture levels, I came across this product!! The fact that it also has a soothing effect is perfect for my sensitive skin!!! I've used VT Cosmetics before, as they're quite renowned, and I trusted the brand. The product not only provided great moisture, but also had a nice, comfortable application that felt refreshing. The soothing effect helped calm my skin, which had become sensitive to the cold winds and heaters in the winter. It adequately replenished the moisture, so I highly recommend it! The application was not just smoothly spreadable, but also had a slightly slippery, unique feel to it. It's similar to the smooth, gliding application of hyaluronic acid-based products, but without the heavy, slick sensation. Instead, it applies seamlessly and absorbs beautifully into the skin. The essence really adheres to the skin, allowing for comfortable, non-irritating application. It's a great product!
ConsThe skin irritation test, the skin irritation test was completed, and I was able to use the area more comfortably. Especially when applied, it felt like a coating was applied to the skin, and the skin had a shimmering moisture as shown in the photo. The skin became moist and supple, which was great!!! It can also be used for infants and babies, and it is fragrance-free, so it should be fine for those sensitive to fragrances!!!
TipIn my case, I use the following order in the morning: Glucamune toner -> essence -> cream. In the evening, I use Glucamune toner -> Ridlshot -> essence -> mask. The Ridlshot helps with the absorption of the next step, so it's great to use it during nighttime skincare. If I don't properly moisturize, I tend to get itchy. When I go out in the cold weather and come back to a warm indoor environment, my skin can get flushed or dry. In those cases, using a moisturizing and soothing product straight from the refrigerator is great - it really helps replenish the moisture and calm the skin quickly. I highly recommend this for the summer as well, as it can provide lightweight, gentle, and refreshing hydration without making the skin feel stuffy.

The texture is thin and runny, like a watery nasal discharge, so it spreads smoothly and has a sticky, spreadable quality. If applied incorrectly, it can sometimes cause skin irritation, but this product feels extremely gentle. It feels very moisturizing when applied, but after full absorption, there is a slightly drying sensation. I think it would be better suited for oily skin types rather than dry skin. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a lightweight, beneficial essence that can be easily applied.
ConsThere's nothing in particular, but if I had to pick one, it would be that the fragrance-free option is actually a bit disappointing.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsHere is a 7-day review of the product used from February 23 to March 1. My skin type is combination - dry and slightly oily. My skin concerns are uneven texture and redness! 💦Texture💦 The texture has some viscosity but is slightly lighter than a runny essence. It feels very moisturizing and is not as refreshing as a completely matte type, but rather lightly coats the skin without ever feeling dry. Personally, I find it great to use at night after cleansing before bed. For those who want a non-greasy base for makeup in the morning, this can be used alone without a cream. 💥Redness Improvement💥 As you can see in the before photo, I have very prominent redness in my skin, and even with makeup, the redness still shows through unless I apply it very thickly. After using this product, I noticed significant improvement in my skin redness! The after photo is with makeup, so it looks even better, but the actual redness has been greatly reduced, even if not completely eliminated. 💧Moisturization💦 I have a combination skin type - oily T-zone and dry cheeks. I felt this might be a bit rich for very oily skin types, and oily users may want to skip the cream step and just use this. As a dry-combination user, I found this to be a light, comfortable layer that I could then top with cream in my drier areas. It definitely helped control dryness well without causing excess oil the next day.
Cons🧐Pores🧐 It's not exactly a flaw, but... the pores have been mildly refined, but it feels ambiguous to consider this the effect of this product. My face didn't become dry or cause more pores to appear, but I didn't feel a dramatic improvement in the pores. 💦Texture💦 As mentioned earlier, the texture is a typical runny type with a thin oil layer, not an overly lightweight texture that those with oily skin may find unsuitable. Even though I typically use lightweight textures, the pores didn't worsen in this case.
TipIn summary, the lightweight ingredients make it a great finishing product for those with dry or slightly oily skin! (Those with dry skin may need to apply toner or additional moisturizer before using.) It provides good hydration, effectively reduces redness, and soothes the skin, so I'm very satisfied with this product! Also, applying it lightly before makeup helps the makeup apply very well!

The formula spreads and absorbs very easily, making it convenient to apply and quickly absorb into the skin. I initially used it morning and evening, but since my skin is dry, I found it a bit too lightweight, so I ended up using it only in the morning and afternoon. 💙Brightening effect I was really amazed at how much brighter my complexion looked. My skin has a pinkish tone and tends to look slightly ashy when tanned, but using this product along with sunscreen, my skin became so radiant and transparent, like after cleansing. 💙Ingredients I have quite sensitive skin, and I usually break out when I change my skincare products, but I didn't experience any irritation, breakouts, or itchiness while using this product. I'm glad I discovered this effective yet gentle product. I'll definitely reach for this again whenever my skin looks dull.
ConsThe limitation of the gel formula is unavoidable. While it effectively replenishes moisture, it falls short in terms of hydration. If you experience significant dryness, I would recommend using this product only in the morning or afternoon, and then switching to another highly moisturizing product in the evening.
TipIn the evening, it seems more effective to apply it, so if you apply it in the evening, it would be good to add a sleeping pack or something similar as a final layer.

I've been paying a lot of attention to moisturizing lately, and I was very pleased to try this product. I've been using the moisturizing toner, serum, lotion, and cream, and I tried replacing the serum with this product. Previously, I disliked the sticky and residual feeling of the products I used, as they absorbed quickly and felt moisturized, but the moisturizing effect didn't last. In comparison, this product's absorption and residual feeling weren't exactly my preferred style, but when I used the other products together, there was no uncomfortable stickiness or residue left behind. It seemed to absorb well. And I felt that the tightness was relieved more than before. I dislike strong fragrances, and this was a fragrance-free product, which I liked. It's a product that can be applied without burden to my young daughter, whose skin is similar in dryness, so I was pleased with it.
ConsPersonally, I prefer transparent containers with visible contents.
TipApplying the remaining residue on your hands to your bangs can help tidy them up nicely. It's not as greasy as hair products and is quite light, which is great.

Recommended skin types: dry👍, oily, combination, all skin types Spreadability ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absorption ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Low irritation ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Moisturizing ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Hydrating and soothing ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ It is a watery, transparent essence. It's not as runny as water and has a viscous texture, so when you first pump it, it stretches out when you touch it. When applied to the face, it doesn't absorb immediately, but when you roll it around, it absorbs smoothly and doesn't feel sticky. The fragrance is unscented, and it has a medicinal smell, but I actually like it😍👍👍👍 I have very dry skin, so it's dry all year round. In the winter, it feels light as a first step in my skincare routine. In the summer, when my skin gets dry from air conditioning, the refreshing feel allows me to use it well.
ConsThe Hwahae is lightweight for use in the winter. It is moisturized and feels soft. It would be good to use it together with oil products.
