Review: Outstanding. Consistent repurchase even though expensive. - I use this as moisturizer sometimes, I simply believe in it. I have tried sulwhasoo other products, this is how i found this product - using a handful of trial sizes, and this one kept me intruiged. I think it may be expensive, but I try and buy it on sale. The quality is great, I trust Koreans for the ingredients being top. I don't ever have it be sticky, the texture is like a weightless fluid, you don't see it.
Review: This is a good product. - I was hesitant to buy this product as skin-care enthusiast that a, has skin-care budget limits and b, dry, eczema-prone skin. Some of the paid reviewers claimed that this is a layer in addition to your moisturizer. While some might thrive with 8 step routines, I prefer to have a few items that actually work and meet the needs of my skin. Sulwhasoo allows for both approaches. Let’s get this straight: This is for all intents and purposes a lightweight moisturizer/lotion that only requires a few pumps. At my current rate, the emulsion will likely last me most of the summer, making it outstanding value for money. Adding extra occlusive layers might work for you, but to me that feels like overkill as the emulsion already has an almost oil-like texture that absorbs nicely. Overall, the product gives my skin a subtle glow during the day with some SPF. At night, my skin feels nourished and moisturized. The fragrance is perfectly fine for my skin and disappears within seconds when applied.
