This has been one of the best things I found for my skin. Helps so much with my irritated skin from retinol! So much improvement in skin texture and pores looks smooth.
Love the natural mugwort smell, very herbal. (Double fermented)
Texture is very light and watery, absorbs easily into the skin.
Will be in rotation with Missha 5x essence.
Texture is very watery, absorbs easily into the skin and during the summer I don't even need a moisturizer (I live in a tropical country and my skin is normal). I really liked it!
The scent is good. My sister used it when her cheeks were really pink due to rosacea and it visibly helped (did not solve the problem, it's just an essence..)
