I have noticed that with this gel, if you have sensitive skin, that you should space applications out. I have tried using this as a daily gel, which made my skin very dry and sore. However, using it for 1-3 days and then having a matching 1-3 days for recovery gives my skin a rest and lets it repair better. Works well for helping skin texture, however will continue use to see if it works better Show more

It has given me one of my worst acne breakouts ever. DO NOT USE if you are oily/acne-prone skin. It's a very heavy formula, that's not easy to wash off your face even when rinsing it thoroughly. So it always ends up building up inside your pores creating more gunk. Plus, I don't think it's even good at removing waterproof make-up, any micellar water or cleansing oil can do a better job.

Honestly, I do like this. However it’s not the best balm I’ve used. It really does leave a film on your face, which doesn’t work for all skin types, it just happens to work for mine. A little too expensive, definitely get the beauty of joseon one instead.
