Despite having sensitive skin, I didn't experience any tingling or blemishes. The texture is moisturizing with a stretchy consistency (see attached photo), so even though it's a functional serum, it didn't feel drying. To be honest, I'm not sure about its pore-improving effects... I didn't have high expectations from a cosmetic product anyway. However, the bumpy texture in my T-zone noticeably smoothed out, making my overall skin texture look really good! Perhaps because of this, my makeup also applied better! I'm using it well, thinking of it as a hydrating texture-improving serum. I wouldn't recommend it to those expecting significant pore-improvement effects (this is just my personal opinion).
ConsThe pore-improving effect was quite disappointing. There weren't any particular blemishes, but it's more moisturizing than expected, so it might feel a bit heavy in the peak of summer.

The texture is very dense and thick when you pump it out. I think it will be good to apply in the winter. There is absolutely no pulling sensation, and when I apply a generous amount in the evening and go to sleep, it absorbs well by the next morning when I do my makeup. The plump texture is maintained until I wake up the next day! After about two days of use, my skin has a subtle glow, if I may say so. I felt my skin becoming more supple! There were no breakouts at all, and it seems like a gentle product.
ConsIf your skin is very oily or it's summertime, you may feel a bit stuffy. The Hwahae pore zone is said to reduce pores after 3 days of use, but I'm not sure since this Hwahae pore zone is a real stress for me. I think I'll have to use it more to know if it's effective. An adjustment period is needed. For me, it stung a bit on the first day, but was fine after that. Since it contains retinol, there was some peeling. Around 3-4 days after using it, the peeling became more noticeable, but then it was fine.

It seems to be usable throughout the four seasons, except for oily skin. The absorption is also good, giving a feeling of filling moisture without feeling heavy. Although the period of use has not been long yet, the pore effect needs to be used a little more, but the ingredients are good and it is easy to use without any problems!
ConsThe feeling is quite sticky even after application, giving a slightly tacky sensation. I found this to be a nourishing experience, but it could also feel a bit constricting. Therefore, I think it works better for me to use this in the evenings.~^^
TipIn the evening, finishing with a light moisturizing cream after use resulted in less of a sticky feeling.

It's not too heavy or oily like some other ampoules or serums that I tend to avoid. It has a good balance of moisture and viscosity, so it doesn't just immediately dry out after application, which can happen with some very watery products. It absorbed well without being too slow. I haven't used it for very long yet, so I haven't seen visible results, but I'll continue using it and provide an update later.
ConsIt seems that the slightly viscous finish may feel sticky and stuffy for those sensitive to stickiness. When applied with the hands, there is a slight web-like drag, so it's good to keep that in mind.
TipThis product has a creamy, yet lightweight texture that helps combat dryness. When applied over a hydrating cream, it can provide extra moisture for dry skin types during the winter. I use Laneige's Retinol eye cream around the eye area, and this product on the rest of my face, including the cheeks and nose.

Spreadability: It's not overly runny but has a nice, thick consistency, making it particularly suitable for use in the winter. 2. Absorption: While the thick texture meant I didn't feel an immediate absorption, it didn't quickly evaporate either. The long-lasting, plump sensation suggests good moisturizing properties. 3. As someone with skin that tends towards dryness and is sensitive to many products, I experienced no breakouts or irritation from using this item.
ConsDuring the summer, the rich, creamy texture may feel heavy and cloying for those with oily skin types.
