Bean Essence
I have acne-prone skin and was cautious about introducing new products into my routine. However, Mixsoon Bean Essence has been a pleasant surprise.

Sensitive Skin - Be Careful
So I tried this product earlier this week and, no lie, I'm going to urgent care tomorrow because I've broken out in dermatitis/hives on several places on my body, including a huge patch on my lower face. And apparently this is a common complaint with this product likely because of the ferments or soybean in it. I'm freaked out because I've been using Asian skincare since 2018 and never had a reaction like this. I even patch tested and nothing happened. I don't know that I've ever tried anything with soybean but I'm thoroughly traumatized.
Surprisingly good!!
Received as part of a gift by Ulta and immediately purchased a bottle! Love that its multi use. I alternate between using it as an exfoliant and an essence, leaves my skin glowing!
Formula change?
Purchased many times for the glow this gives my sensitive skin. This last bottle smells like soured milk. Not putting that stink on my face. Returning
Not for sensitive skin
I had high hopes for this one, everyone is raving about it that I didn't even test it first, I have used it for few days and my skin is having a very bad reaction that I couldn't wear makeup for the past few days, my bores gotten bigger with red blotches, I tried going back to old skin routine but my skin is not responding, my face feels very dry, tight and tender to touch, I can't even tolerate the touch if my pillow case on my face.
Won't buy again
I don't understand the hype over serums like this. It doesn't do anything it says it does such as improving skin texture. So far I haven't seen any benefits from this serum and feel like its a waste of money. My skin is soft but no different than using my usual lotion.
