I recommend it for all skin types. After using it consistently for about a year, I can definitely say it's different from regular hydrating toners. It has helped improve my skin texture.
ConsWhen you first use it, the fermented scent might take some getting used to!

There's a noticeable difference in my skin's texture when I use it versus when I don't. My complexion becomes smoother and brighter.
ConsThe price might seem wicked, but considering I don't use much at a time and one bottle lasts over three months, I'd say it's a worthwhile investment.

ConsWhen layering it multiple times during application, I find that despite its large size, it only lasts about a month, which makes it a bit pricey.
TipAfter using toner, I apply this product three times with my hands instead of using a cotton pad.

After application, your skin feels smooth. One 230ml bottle lasts for ages. It has a brightening effect that improves your complexion.
ConsI managed to use up the whole bottle, but it's quite pricey, so I bought it duty-free. Initially, I experienced some itching and redness when using it (which went away with continued use). Since I have dry skin, I need to follow up with a hydrating cream. If you're new to fermented skincare, make sure to patch test for compatibility. And the smell... at first, I thought it smelled like saliva (though you get used to it and don't notice it after a while)!

I've tried other products in a similar price range, but this one seems to be the best at refining skin texture.
ConsFirst off, the price is wicked. Also, being a fermented product, the scent might be polarizing for some people.

Even after trying other products, I always come back to this one. The scent isn't overpowering, and it really improves my skin texture.
ConsThe price is quite steep, which makes it a bit of a burden on the wallet.
TipIt absorbs well when applied with a cotton pad.

Since it's a water-based formula, it absorbs well and doesn't pill when I apply other products on top. I used to occasionally get small bumps on my skin, but since I've been using Pitera for two years now, it hasn't happened even once! I've tried other brands claiming to be alternatives or similar products, but nothing comes close. Pitera is simply the answer for me.
ConsThe packaging... The glass bottle is too large and heavy. Because of this, when I try to dispense it into my hand, it tends to spill a bit down the sides of the bottle.
TipInstead of dispensing it into your hand, it's more convenient to apply it directly to your face! This also reduces the amount that slips through your fingers.

I had good experiences with affordable fermented essences before, so I decided to try the original version. I've been using it only in the evenings, and after just a week, my skin age diagnosis showed improvement in texture. I was so thrilled that I bought the essence too on the same day! My skin texture has improved, and I noticed an immediate enhancement in my complexion. As a result, my morning makeup seems to apply much better now.
ConsThe lingering scent is not to my liking. Other than that, the price is great! Since I'm happy with the toner, I find myself buying the essence and cream as well.
TipI switched to using this with Olive Young cotton pads.

It's also completely fragrance-free. With its water-like texture, it's incredibly lightweight. If fermented skincare suits your face, I think all skin types could use this product. The main benefit is improved skin texture. You might not notice it when applying, but when you wake up, your skin is noticeably softer.
ConsThe downside is that these are the only good points. Considering its high price, it doesn't offer many advantages. I received it as a gift, but if I had to buy it myself, I wouldn't. I'd stick to my usual Korean fermented skincare products. Unlike my regular fermented essence, this one doesn't have any skin-soothing effects.
TipThe essence is so light that you can easily layer a rich cream on top without feeling burdened. Make sure to moisturize well.
