First of all, it overwhelms with its quantity, and although it was originally intended for spot treatment, given the military's characteristic of not allowing personal items to be used freely, and since my entire face was in a state of acne alert, it was fine for me to apply it all over. It gives a feeling of removing excess oil, and I think it's a product with a generally good balance, without any tightness and also good for soothing. I would often reapply it and rinse my face with water when I was sweating during the day, and it worked very well for me. It doesn't have any particularly outstanding features, but it's not lacking either, and it's a product that I'm generally satisfied with, without causing any problems.
ConsThe first thing you notice when you open the lid is the scent! I got used to it and didn't mind it, but it's strong enough that people around me can smell it right after application. They say it smells like alcohol swabs. When you apply it, it has a stinging, tingling sensation that's addictive, but I don't think it's a good thing for the skin. Sensitive people might consider this the biggest downside.

That's why I always rely on this product for soothing and astringent purposes. I've been using it consistently for about 4 bottles now. I almost always have it stocked up, like an essential item. When I have folliculitis or acne, I can apply it on a cotton pad and place it on the troubled area to disinfect it, and it provides a refreshing, calming sensation. I also use it as an astringent during seasonal changes when my face gets flushed. Sometimes after shaving, if I get irritation, applying this gives me a soothing, cooling feeling... It has a very strong disinfectant (?) smell, but even as a highly sensitive person, I haven't experienced any adverse reactions from using it for a long time. This is my holy grail product.
ConsFirst-time users may be taken aback by the smell... My family describes it as having a dental office-like odor. This is likely due to the camphor (from camphor tree) component, which creates a stinging, pungent scent. And since it's not a gentle toner but an astringent, it contains alcohol, so it may be irritating around the eye area.

Applying it briefly to the troubled area shows quick effects 2. Seems to have a cooling effect
Cons1. Quite irritating 2. Leaves a drying sensation after application 3. Overpowering alcohol smell 4. Minimal effect on closed comedones
TipThis product seems suitable for those with inflammatory or pustular breakouts, rather than those with just closed comedones. It may be too harsh to apply all over the face.

ConsAlthough I was afraid to use it because of the alcohol content, as expected.... At first, I liked it because it felt cool and calming. I tried it because I heard it helps prevent sebum from rising, but after two days, the closed comedones turned into inflamed ones.... Since then, I've just been keeping it aside.

ConsI was a bit hesitant to do it several times because it contained alcohol ingredients, just in case it might irritate my skin ㅠㅠ

It also helps reduce skin troubles, and the texture is light. The fragrance is not artificial, but has a slightly medicinal disinfectant scent, which may be divisive, but I personally found it pleasant as it does not have an artificial fragrance added.
ConsFor first-time users, it may feel irritating and cause eye discomfort, which is unfortunate.

The capacity is large, so it seems like it will last a long time But I still wish I had bought one more, I feel a bit regretful (But that's right, it's wise to just buy one safely, since cosmetics come in so many varieties and there are so many options to choose from) It really calms down quickly Before using this, all kinds of pimples, acne, and eczema kept popping up on my face Even though I haven't used it for a long time, it's not completely cleared up, but the redness has disappeared and Lately, whenever something feels like it's about to pop up on my skin or has already come up, making it itchy and making me keep touching my face without realizing it, that feeling has gone away - it's really amazing. Yesterday I went to bed at 4pm and thought my skin was ruined today, but after putting on makeup and going out, my skin has completely calmed down with this.
ConsThe alcohol smell was as strong as I had heard, and it stung when I applied it to my skin. But I actually liked that - the medicinal smell made me feel like it was really disinfecting and treating my skin, and the stinging sensation went away quickly, leaving me with a refreshing, clean feeling. Especially lately, my skin has been in chaos, with oozing and an unpleasant sticky feeling, but the sensation of it all just blowing away and my skin feeling soft and fluffy was really relieving. Many have said that dry, sensitive skin shouldn't use this, but even though my skin is dry and sensitive, the ingredients seem to work well for me.
TipSome have said that using this makes your skin dry, so it's good to layer other moisturizing products on top. I've tried that as well, since my skin is dry, but in my case, using this alone was actually more effective and long-lasting, and my skin felt so light and comfortable. If you're going to put on makeup right after using this, you'd need to add an oily product on top. But just for calming the skin at home, I think using this alone is the best. Though that may be because I have such a sensitive skin type and react sensitively to mixing products.

Wipe with cucumber and then press this on the acne-prone areas (I use it all over my face haha..) and let it absorb. Then use emulsion, so it's a three-step process. I did this for about two months and my acne has really improved, I'm so happy >_< It might have alcohol in it, but when I apply it, it tingles and the emulsion absorbs really well, which is great.
ConsIf you don't like the tingling, cooling sensation, you can skip it.. Oh right, I remember it stung a bit for the first two days or so. But after using it for a while, I got used to it and it just felt good.
TipI wrote it above.

But since I started using Seisso, my skin troubles have disappeared.
ConsWhen I apply it to my face, it feels like I'm putting disinfectant on. People who don't like that kind of sensation should probably avoid it.

Even though the toner doesn't have much effect, I give it to my friends. This is the 6th one I've given to my friends. But this time, I didn't give it to a friend and ordered it again myself haha. This is the first time I've reordered the toner because I really liked it ~ My skin is dry, but when I apply this, it doesn't feel tight or dry. If I'm too lazy to apply a moisturizer and essence, I just use this one haha. I'll order it again when I finish this bottle.
ConsIt seems to have alcohol in it, so it stung a bit ㅠㅠ My mom liked the refreshing feeling, but for me, I'd say it's a bit irritating. Other than that, everything else is good.
TipMy skin is dry! I always use two methods when applying this toner. The first is a toner pack! I soak a cotton pad and apply it all over my face!! The second is to apply it several times with a cotton pad! I usually do the second method. It's moisturizing and great, but there's individual difference, so be sure to test it before buying ~
