It's perfect for those with extremely oily skin. When applied in moderation, the absorption and texture feel just right. I also appreciate its unscented formula, which doesn't irritate. This product really helped calm my skin when I was dealing with excessive sebum production and acne breakouts. Having sensitive skin, I often struggle to find suitable cosmetics, but this one is gentle enough to work well for me. Highly recommended for those with very oily skin!
ConsSince developing combination dehydrated skin, I'm not sure if this product is the cause, but my skin became so dry that I can no longer use it. This product lacks both hydration and oil content for standalone use (except in summer). It feels more like a toner. After prolonged use, I noticed extreme tightness and dryness in areas other than my T-zone. Desperate to make it work, I tried layering it with other products, but it seemed to only clog my pores without providing any real benefits to my skin. Strongly discouraged for those with combination dehydrated skin!
TipThis might be suitable for occasional use when your skin is feeling sensitive, excessively oily, or temporarily dry during travel. However, it's a bit lacking as a daily skincare product.

I'm on my third bottle, and it's so gentle, not harsh at all! Usually, products for blemishes are quite strong, but this one is wonderfully mild for a blemish-specific product. The tea tree scent is clean and fresh, and it effectively removes dirt when used with a cotton pad. It's fantastic! Highly recommended!
ConsIt doesn't dramatically reduce blemishes, but it does gradually and steadily diminish them over time.

As someone with super sensitive skin and frequent blemishes, I love that it doesn't cause any irritation and feels like it absorbs instantly! It's like I'm finally free from alcohol and oil-based products!
ConsFor concealing blemishes... I'm not sure if it's this product or something else, but it's a bit disappointing. While Papa Recipe products are generally trustworthy, it seems a bit unrealistic to expect miraculous results in one go. Also, while it absorbs quickly and doesn't irritate, the hydration level is somewhat lacking, unfortunately.
TipUsing it with a toner doubles the benefits!

Though it's called an emulsion, it's more like a transparent gel type. It's reasonably priced and doesn't contain any harmful ingredients, making it a gentle option I use regularly. After applying, my skin feels smooth and refreshed.
ConsThe downside is that it's slightly lacking in hydration. Perhaps because it's completely oil-free, it might be fine for oily skin types, but for those with dry skin, it could be quite insufficient (as an emulsion). The gel-like texture gives a slight evaporating sensation, and you need to keep patting it in until it's fully absorbed. As for the scent, it's almost fragrance-free.

It's so convenient! As someone with sensitive and oily skin, I find it really suitable because it's so gentle.
ConsWhile there's nothing particularly disappointing, I just wish the product came in a slightly larger size.

I've been using Papa Recipe's Trouble line for 5 years now. Though I've tried switching to other skin emulsions that claim to be good for acne, I always end up coming back to Papa Recipe's. It's moisturizing without being too sticky and feels gentle on the skin. The scent is also pleasant and not overwhelming. I think it's a great product for its price!
ConsIn winter, this alone isn't enough to combat dryness. You'll definitely need a moisturizing cream or another type of cream on top!
TipIf you store it in a cool place and apply it, it has a cooling effect that seems to help soothe the skin.

ConsThe scent isn't unpleasant, but there's a slight hint of soju. It's not bad though.

I have super sensitive skin, so I usually have to be careful with emulsions, but this one was fine.
ConsHowever, I applied it together with an essence. That makes it even more hydrating.

My skin is super sensitive and usually tingles when I apply products, but this emulsion didn't cause any irritation at all! The ingredients must be really good.
ConsHowever, since I have sensitive and extremely dry skin, I absolutely can't use this alone. It's way too drying! It feels more like an essence? Anyway, don't buy this expecting it to be a typical emulsion.

Having blemish-prone skin, I used to change my entire skincare routine if something seemed even slightly ineffective, but I've been using this product consistently. It has a clear texture with a slight viscosity.
ConsThere's nothing particularly bad, but there's a slight scent. Also, occasionally I felt a tingling sensation. However, it didn't worsen my blemishes.
