  Pros

  When I first used this product, I hadn't tried many others and didn't know much about cosmetic ingredients. The texture felt incredibly light and absorbed well, unlike other products I was familiar with. I mistakenly thought this product was improving my skin. If there are any positives, it's the lightweight texture and smooth application that can fool novice users. The scent gives the impression of being skin-friendly without being overpowering, and the packaging is luxurious. It has almost all the elements to create a placebo effect for users.

  Cons

  Ingredients: It's mostly composed of dimethicone and other silicone-based ingredients, which explains why it feels light and non-sticky. Many of the other ingredients aren't great either. Value for money: Even for a department store brand, this seems particularly poor. Based on ingredient quality and effectiveness alone, I'd give it a 0.5 (acknowledging the 0.5 for the placebo effect). However, I'm giving it 1 star because the packaging is attractive, the texture and scent are well-designed, and I personally didn't experience any blemishes.

  Tip

  You can confidently skip this product

  Pros

  The scent, brand image, and overall feel when applied are just perfect. The packaging somehow inspires confidence and has a subtle, elegant beauty.

  Cons

  There's no extraordinary effect beyond the pleasant sensation. It's moisturizing. I tend to stick to one brand, so when I was in the US, I used only Estée Lauder for all my cosmetics as it wasn't too expensive there. I just realized now that this product has brightening properties.

  Pros

  1. The fragrance is lovely. It lifts my mood while applying makeup. 2. I used this when I had acne-prone, oily skin. Now my skin is dehydrated, normal, and showing signs of aging. I think this product might be discontinued now? 3. It makes my skin texture silky smooth and seems to minimize pores. Makeup applies beautifully over it.

  Cons

  1. The effects are only good while using it. Once I stopped, that silky smooth skin was nowhere to be found.

  Tip

  1. This is a joy for those with oily skin and pore concerns. 2. Keep in mind that 'pore-smoothing' essentially means it's filling in pores, so thorough cleansing is absolutely crucial.

  Pros

  I'm not sure if it's because of this, but before that, my acne scars were really severe!!! But after using this, they disappeared as if erased by an eraser. Of course, going to bed early also helped, but first of all, the fragrance is amazing and I feel so much better after using this ❤️

  Cons

  The disappointing thing is that I used the sample, and even though I want to repurchase, the price is holding me back...

  Pros

  - The fragrance is nice - Due to the pearly particles, the overall skin appears brighter and has a radiant glow

  Cons

  - The skin appears brighter due to the pearly particles, but it doesn't actually make the skin itself brighter - The price is expensive (around 170,000 won) - When applying makeup or cream, it cakes up like dirt - The ingredients are the worst
