I bought it because of the positive reviews and I was bitterly disappointed. Very mediocre hydration with no lasting effect, basically supermarket brand level. It’s not worth the money at all. The only good thing I can say is that at least it didn’t irritate me, because that has happened to me too with another highly advertised, expensive Korean essence.
I’ve concluded that many of these Korean products that get so much hype are actually overrated and can’t be compared to European brands, pharmaceutical or not.

The best product I have ever tried, I have perioral dermatitis which does not respond to anything. This is the only thing that soothes it within minutes. I have very sensitive to reactive skin and there are very few things it can tolerate. I highly recommend it

Very satisfied, it helps me moisturize my skin when it is irritated or dehydrated, always under a moisturizer or sunscreen.

I wouldn't call it essence, it's too watery. It's not for facial cleansing of course, it's for the first step of hydration after facial cleansing (with water in the morning or soap at night). It hydrates nicely, it's soothing and it reminds me a lot of the isntree toner which is very moisturizing. Overall, it's one of the most moisturizing products I've tried. It leaves a thin film, so I won't repurchase it, I'll prefer the isntree or mary and may ones which are creamy. But it's not bad.

I saw this particular product everywhere. I tried it personally and I can't say that it helped me. Initially, it makes the face smooth and you think it's moisturized, but the hydration doesn't last. In fact, when I stopped using it, I realized that it didn't help as a step in my routine, especially considering that I used serum and moisturizer afterwards. The price I found for it was good, especially for 100ml since you don't need a large amount, it spreads easily and absorbs easily. However, because I was curious about why it exacerbated my dry skin problem, I searched for reviews and many people mention that the astragalus membranaceus root extract doesn't help all skin types. I want to say that there are much more moisturizing and equally affordable toners available.

It is the second essence I have tried and I am very impressed! For an essence, it has a more watery texture and absorbs quickly. It has a gentle scent that leans towards sweet and earthy tones, I really like it! It does not cause irritation, on the contrary, it is very good at repairing the skin and acne. My acne has already improved in just 4 days! Apart from that, I can't say that it helps a lot with hydration, I mean it could be better. But other than that, as someone with combination acne-prone skin, I love it. It doesn't leave any greasy texture. It sticks a little for the first 3 minutes, but then it stops. I should add that it has very few ingredients, which is really wonderful! Without any hesitation, I will repurchase it, unless something comes up in the next few weeks! (If any problem arises, I will edit my review!)
