Pros
It's nice. Since it says to shake the Essentials Skin on the second floor, it seems there is an oil layer.
Cons
The volume is a bit disappointing considering the price, but it's been discontinued.

Pros
The fragrance is pleasant, and the whitening effect is very noticeable.
Cons
The moisturizing power is quite weak, so it's better to apply it twice or use it with another skin care product.

Pros
I purchased the Jeju Living set as a package. The packaging is refreshing and the scent is decent.
Cons
After using it for a week, I had an allergic reaction on my skin. At first, I didn't know it was because of this product, but I found out after visiting a dermatologist. My face became itchy and broke out. The doctor asked if I had recently changed my skincare, and that's when I realized this was the problem. I'm not sure exactly which ingredient caused the allergy, but the doctor said that functional whitening ingredients often trigger allergic reactions in sensitive skin. Now I've switched back to the product I was using in Seoul. By the way, I use OM and it's really great~

Pros
It's moisturizing and unremarkable. Continuous use seems to have helped with dark spots and brightening. The fragrant scent is also nice.
Cons
I don't think there were any particular issues. It's a product I've been using for several years now.
Tip
I use it by applying it and wiping it off with cotton pads, just like cleansing.

Pros
Please note that the before-use photo is quite blurry. The blemishes are well-captured in the red color;; Before using, my pores, freckles, wrinkles, and blemishes were all in poor condition. Using this product along with the Etude House moisturizer, my skin has become much healthier. I have dry and sensitive skin, and in the past I mainly used oily lotions or creams, which led to the development of milia-like bumps. Being dry-skinned, I've always had wrinkles😭 But when I was younger, I didn't have issues like acne or blemishes. After having two kids (due to hormones and playing at the playground), my freckles exploded and my blemishes flared up, possibly from the strong sunlight or improper sunscreen use, causing my pores to enlarge. So I ended up visiting a dermatologist, and my skin became hypersensitive. After trying various products, using this toner and the Etude House collagen moisturizer has helped reduce my freckles (though they haven't disappeared completely) and prevented the milia-like bumps. To shrink my enlarged pores, I've been using a rice bran cleansing oil + 1 or 2 mild cleansers (either a low-pH cleanser or a powder exfoliator like Angel powder) and 'refrigerated' sheet masks! Then I let a mini fan blow on my face. This has helped a lot!!!!! For the sheet masks, since I have dry and sensitive skin, I didn't use expensive or specialized products, just the Innisfree Real Squeeze fig and coconut ones that I kept in the fridge. p.s. If your skin feels tight after the mask, apply an extra layer of moisturizer.
Cons
The price and ingredients are a bit disappointing, and while the whitening (functional) aspect is an advantage, it's also a disadvantage. So it's easy to use when your face is damaged. Please skip it if you've developed blemishes from misusing sunscreen or foundation. Your skin needs to rest. It's better to use a refreshing coconut sheet mask instead.
Tip
Since it's a toner formula, it's great for applying to areas with buildup of dead skin cells after showering or parts of the body where you want whitening effects. It's easy to apply and non-sticky, which is nice.

Pros
It was really good that I applied it diligently for about a week. But the dark circles disappeared. In addition to removing the dark circles, it also helped with wrinkle improvement and whitening. When I applied it, my skin became firm and there was no more skin tightness.
Cons
There was nothing particularly bad. I may not have used it for a long time.
Tip
On the day I bought this, my skin had white flakes and debris coming out, and it was a mess. But when I bought and applied Bepanten (pharmacy purchase), it had a skin regeneration effect. The Bepanten formula is almost solid, so thick that when you apply it and sleep overnight, and then pat it and cleanse it in the morning, the trouble completely disappears.

Pros
The scent was refreshing and pleasant. I also liked that I didn't need to apply lotion.
Cons
The sticky feeling was a bit too much. It did get better after about 2 minutes, but it still felt a bit strange when applying it.

Pros
At first, there is a slippery feeling, but when applied, it feels moisturizing and absorbs well. The formulation was good.
Cons
I've used 2-3 bottles, but I don't think there were any benefits in terms of whitening or helping with acne. I'm not sure what the problem is, but when my acne gets worse, it feels like it gets even worse.

Pros
It's generally good! I bought the whole line of the same essence because I liked it so much, and I'm using it as a toner and layering it for extra moisture. It has a watery texture, so it feels moisturizing without being too special in terms of effects. The scent is refreshing, which I enjoy.
Cons
I didn't really notice any major downsides. The only thing is that since it has a certain texture, you need to be careful to wipe the opening well to avoid it getting messy.
