This packaging wins the best Sulwhasoo award in my humble option.  It is a tall golden goddess with its base having a double plastic layer ~ so you can see the reflection of the name of the serum on that golden inner layer.  Truly a stunning piece.   It has a pump applicator and the texture is more like a watery gel ~ it isn’t as thick as the Essential Serum.  Oh and the scent!  It is heavenly ~ a real robust ginseng scent so if you dislike ginseng, you will not like this scent at all.  But for hanbang lovers, this is a treat.
As I spread the serum out, I can see those Ginsenisphere beads in the serum and they melt away into my skin.  It’s like an oil but not oily and the serum actually gets watery as it absorbs into my skin. The difference is amazing. 
My skin is REALLY supple and soft, very hydrated and smooth.  I don’t feel a protective barrier but really a hydrated barrier instead ~ my skin is so plumped up and that smooth silky skin texture stays around for a while.  I feel that my skin has better elasticity while using this serum and the sensation is cooling and refreshing.

Nothing!! I cant find anything wrong with it 

I received 4 of the 𝙏𝙧𝙖𝙥𝙬𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙧 𝙈𝙤𝙧𝙚 𝙇𝙞𝙠𝙚 𝙀𝙨𝙨𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙚 & 4 carrier oils ~ 𝘾𝙤𝙤𝙤𝙡𝙮, 𝙂𝙧𝙚𝙚𝙣𝙚𝙧𝙮, 𝙂𝙤𝙡𝙙𝙚𝙣 & 𝘽𝙧𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙍𝙤𝙨𝙮.  Let’s talk about the 𝙏𝙧𝙖𝙥𝙬𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙧 𝙈𝙤𝙧𝙚 𝙇𝙞𝙠𝙚 𝙀𝙨𝙨𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙚 first ~ this is a watery essence that contains skin repairing & soothing 𝘤𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘢, skin brightening 𝘯𝘪𝘢𝘤𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘮𝘪𝘥𝘦, amino acid anti-wrinkle 𝘢𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘰𝘪𝘴𝘦, skin barrier strengthening 𝘤𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘮𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘴 & a 𝟽 𝘩𝘺𝘢𝘭𝘶𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘢𝘤𝘪𝘥 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘹 to really keep the skin hydrated.  I love the packaging here, it is simple, yet very cool looking.  This can be used by itself as hydrating, skin soothing & repairing mist, but Isfrom added these little 5mL oils that you will add to each bottle of the Trapwater.  Each one of these oils target different concerns & their carrier base is nourishing 𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘦 𝘣𝘳𝘢𝘯 𝘰𝘪𝘭⁣

❄️𝗖𝗼𝗼𝗼𝗹𝘆: I choose this aqua colored oil as my first one to try as it is the moisturizing & cooling oil.  It has a light texture, very refreshing & hydrating with no sticky or greasy residue.  In fact, adding 5 mL of oil to a 90 mL base of a hydrating watery essence is genius!  ⁣

As an oily skinned person, I always dampen my skin with a watery toner before applying a facial oil, as I feel it helps it absorb better & not leave a greasy footprint on my skin.   Coooly has Moroccan 𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘬𝘭𝘺 𝘱𝘦𝘢𝘳 𝘤𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘴 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘥 𝘰𝘪𝘭 to help moisturize, soften, sooth  &  protect your skin against dryness and irritates caused by pollution.  This also has 𝘭𝘢𝘷𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳 &  𝘦𝘶𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘺𝘱𝘵𝘶𝘴, which has a cooling effect as well as   healing benefits.  Coooly is great for oily/blemish prone skin as it has  anti-blemish, antimicrobial 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘮,  anti-inflammatory, anti-blemish & anti-oxidant 𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘤 & anti-inflammatory 𝘩𝘰𝘭𝘺 𝘣𝘢𝘴𝘪𝘭⁣

Some folks hate tea tree scents. Also getting harder to find

This is an ultra moisturizing product and that is due to this lotion containing 70% birch sap and sodium lactate, along with sodium hyaluronate and glycerin.

This has a tea tree scent to it and I looked at the ingredients list again and sure enough, tea tree is included in this product ~ as the last ingredient, but the scent is there!  It disappears quickly enough, but I got really excited about this lotion because of the tea tree.   Oil-free (more on that later), massive water bomb, absorbs quickly, satin finish PLUS anti-bacterial and blemish fighting?  Deal me in!  I’ve been using this lotion during the day for several weeks now and I really love how smooth my skin feels after I apply this ~ it  has a nice slip to it that makes you feel like it has some oils in it, but there isn’t.   This is very lightweight and the increase in my oil&#47;water levels on my skin were both 66% on average ~ yep, I told you it was a water bomb!  But it is balanced so there is no greasy or oily feeling.  Two thumbs up and this is one moisturizer that I think everyone can use.

Oil Free?  But it has … lemon peel oil and tea tree oil… Look, I think that this is oil free in the sense that it doesn’t contain oils like jojoba, shea butter, almond, sunflower, safflower, olive and so on.  I use essential oils all the time and I don’t considered them in the same way as jojoba oil.   Since these two are the last in the ingredient list, I don’t think it is going to affect your skin that much in terms of oil and in fact, tea tree and lemon oils act as astringents.  So, technically, yes, there are oils.  But they are not the heavy oils that can cause oily skin to turn into a grease bucket.

This is expensive and the scent could be too strong for some folks

This is the light version of the concentration ginseng cream. The texture is described as a weightless gel-cream which I would say is more of a cream than a gel.  It has a light texture, but it feels rich as well.  It also has that lovely ginseng scent as the eye cream.  It absorbs quickly into my skin and despite being rich, it dries down to a nice semi matte finish without any greasiness or stickiness.   I used this during the day when it was over 90 degrees here in the Boston area and didn’t feel like it was clogging or too heavy. It really helped make my skin look smooth and feel so soft.  The long term benefits on this cream is that it will help firm and tone up your skin.

As part of the concentrated ginseng line, this eye cream doesnt disappoint. This has a lovely ginseng herbal scent which I love.  Seriously all skincare products should smell like this.  I use this eye cream at night time right now, as it is so moisturizing that I want its benefits to be really promoted ~ as we sleep, our bodies are busy healing and rejuvenating itself and that is why I use more anti-aging skincare products at night. 
This eye cream does absorb nicely into my skin ~ it is thick, but it doesn’t leave a greasy residue and it is not tacky.  I also don’t use a lot, as it is so nourishing and moisturizing.  My fine lines and wrinkles around my eyes look a lot more softer, less deep and not crepey when I use this.  I think to really get the full benefits of this eye cream, I need to start using it during the day time and see if it really helps even more with firming and lifting.  This eye cream will last a long time, so the price is worth it.
