I've tried most of the PYK line and this is by far my favourite product. Don't rub this on, you really need to pat gently in into your skin as the very last skincare step and it seals in all the other products. I use this every night and on the days that I'm not wearing makeup or leaving the house (so not wearing SPF). It is insanely good. I have super sensitive skin, with rosacea flare ups, and it cools my skin down instantly. Super refreshing in the summer.
Ever since I started using this my skin is brighter and more even-toned. I also purchased the Moisture Ampoule, and while I enjoyed that, the two products perform the same function, and I much prefer the Balancing Gel tube for ease of application vs the pipette dropper in the Ampoule. If you have sensitive skin that easily feels overheated and flushed you legit have to try this.

I use this after using Cosrx toner and serum. It’s a strange, thick gel but easy to use; I pat it on rather than wipe. I use it at night and I wake up with smooth and fresh looking skin.

The PY gel, like some of the reviewers say has a weird sticky consistency. I thought I regretted it as soon as I squeezed out a small amount to put on my face! But I decided I'll give it a try then just wipe it off if it makes my face sticky or oily. After maybe 10minutes, the sticky feeling was gone and the gel was absorbed well and it was plump in the morning. I've been using it for a week at night and I really like it. The texture is something new to work with but I pat it in instead of rubbing, it works well. For reference, I have combo, acne-prone and I use tretinoin 5x/week. I love K-beauty and the service with B&S is fab. Thank you. :) X

Haven't used the Balancing Gel previously but I like it very much, no bad reaction. I use twice a day. Really pleased with results.

I’m not sure if like the texture, a little bit so sticky but after a few seconds skin look amazing. So I really like how this product work but not really like texture. I think I will need few more days to learn how to use this product. For sure is something different. I’m happy to check this one. I will give it a chance!

I was so confused when I used it first time from the sample. I have actually thought it’s a gel to wash your face with. When I started working it through on my face it didn’t showed any bubbles so I typed it on YouTube and start laughing .
When I used it in correct way as a finish product ...omg it gives my that glass look without any sticky or oily look. Just wow .
I got the essence toner and moisture cream from the same brand and I think I’ll stick with them for looong ❤️

i Love this product

I had high hopes for this gel. For some reason it does not spread on my face. It curls up, like curdled milk, and cannot be spread. Perhaps it’s a faulty batch or I am using it incorrectly because I love all PYK products. Any advice would be appreciated!

I have only used the Pyunkang Yul Balancing Gel a few times, however, so far I really like it. I use after I’ve applied the essence toner and nutrition cream and my skin has been feeling so much more comfortable- even glowing! I was really grateful to the tips on how to apply it. It does feel sticky on application but I love that my skin feels properly moisturised and not dry again after a few hours. Really happy with my purchase; I would definitely buy this again and would happily recommend to others particularly if dry, tight skin is an issue.

This gel feels like it’s not going to rub in initially but just keep smoothing in circles and it just disappears.
I love this gel, my skin feels so hydrated.

Not a big fan of the texture even after continual use (too sticky for me) - and the container unfortunately came apart at the end within a few weeks so I couldn't use without the gel leaking everywhere. Shame as I'm a fan of the other Pyungkang Yul products (serum, mist toner)

READ THIS BEFORE YOU FREAK OUT! Ok so I received this yesterday and I immediately put a little on my hand to feel the texture. I was scared. It is like honey/glue. I panicked! It is so sticky, thick and doesn't spread!
What to do??
At night I decided to give it a serious try and SO GLAD I DID! Ok so this is what you do. After your normal routine, you apply this gel but you don't rub it or spread it, you PAT IT on your face. Try not to apply too much or you might run out of it soon.
It will feel sticky and weird BUT IT'S OK! Just use it at night and go to sleep soon afterwards. That is what I did and I woke up with the best skin of my life! My skin was incredibly smooth, absolutely no texture, amazing... a velvety feel. It goes away slightly once you wash your face but it definitely does something because my pores and my complexion was way more even.
I am impressed and will definitely keep using it as a mask at night.

Just amazing. I love using this and after I use the nutrition cream. My makeup lasts longer and no primer needed.

This stuff! Tap (just tap, it is true!) it on your skin in the evening, in 10 minutes you’ll have the smoothest skin and in the morning you’ll wake up with smooth, plump and relaxed skin! Love it!

I love this gel! While it's sticky and it takes some time to get used to the texture, I love using it at night after some of my stronger serums and treatments. I would definitely recommend it as a way to both 'lock-in' your skincare products after applying them while soothing your skin at the same time.

This was okay for my skin but the texture of it was very unique and i do recommend! ❤
