My skin is glowing and gradually becoming healthier - I can already feel the difference. After the treatment, people have been telling me that my skin looks so good. I haven't finished the whole bottle yet, so I haven't seen any effects on dark spots or freckles yet. Even though it's pure vitamin C, it's gentler than I expected. It only stings a little if I have a small wound on my face. I'll share more products I'm using as well.
ConsThe product flows like water, so I go through a bottle pretty quickly. It's quite strong. Since it's a watery formula, you need to gauge the amount yourself. It's such a great product that there are a lot of counterfeit Chinese versions, so be careful when purchasing. I bought mine from the official importer on Naver.
TipPlease apply it after sufficient toning. There are results showing that this helps the vitamin C absorption rate. After applying, gently pat it in for about 3 minutes to help it absorb.

I only apply it at night. It seems to be glowing a bit soon after application. I expect it will get even better the more I use it.
ConsMy skin is on the drier side, and I knew vitamin products can be drying and irritating, but I tried it just in case. Sure enough, as soon as I apply it, my cheeks start to feel hot and turn red. And the warmth lasts until bedtime. It was like that for a few days, but now it seems I've adapted to it a bit. So I think it's better to apply it after doing a face mask and when my skin is feeling cool. When I try to apply it with the dropper, it's so thin that it just drips and flies away on my face. So at first I didn't know any better and used 5-6 drops, which really hurt, so I immediately washed it off. Since then, I've only been using 2-3 drops. Normally when I apply a moisturizer at the end of my skincare routine, it leaves my skin feeling hydrated. But when I use this ampoule along with a moisturizer, I don't get that hydrated feeling... it feels dry. So I end up having to use a lot more moisturizer to make it feel okay. The price is on the higher side, so I was hoping for a more dramatic effect. I'm not sure if the cost is justified by the results, but since people say it's good, I guess it must be? I'll keep trying it and see.

I haven't even used half of it yet haha
ConsI think the biggest downside is that it's too runny ㅠㅠ Before I even press the dropper, it just flows out and gets everywhere - on my body, the floor, the vanity, etc.... (I might be wasting more by spilling it than actually applying it to my face...) And since it's a product that requires only a small amount, you shouldn't expect much in terms of moisturizing power :) Even after applying it, my skin feels dry and tight if I don't immediately follow up with a cream ㅠㅠ So you'll need to supplement the moisture with another product!
TipIf you use too much because the product doesn't seem effective or it feels drying, your skin will end up feeling hot and irritated 😊 Absolutely, absolutely, just dab on a small amount at a time ~~

I only bought it to try it once because it's too expensive, but now I don't think I can use anything else..
ConsIt's too watery in liquid form, so as soon as I drop it with the dropper, it just flows right down, so speed is of the essence
TipSince it's expensive, I won't be applying it every day. I'll only use the CE Ferulic on the days I use the derma roller to increase the absorption effect.

It absorbs smoothly without any slippery feeling.
ConsThe formula is watery, and the dropper hole is large, so if applied directly to the face, it will quickly run down. It's best to drop it onto the back of the hand or fingertips first, then apply to the face.
TipThis product has a high vitamin content, so those who are not used to using high-vitamin products may experience redness, itchiness, or irritation on the skin. It's best to start with a lower-concentration product and gradually increase the concentration. It absorbs quickly, so the skin may feel dry. Using a moisturizing serum along with this product is recommended, especially for dry skin types.

The manager said that the doctors really like this product, but if you apply too much, it can cause irritation and a burning sensation, so it's best to use only 1-2 drops on the affected area. People who use this product say they use it consistently. I looked up this product on the US Google due to concerns about side effects, and found that it's the most popular treatment product among the ladies at high-end US spas. I really love this product.
ConsThis product seems to be very popular, but the reviews about serious side effects in the US are quite alarming. If you've never had any issues with acne, blemishes, or skin irritation your whole life, this product might work well for you. But if you even get 1 pimple a year, I would not recommend trying it (it's not worth the risk!). Even if you did have some teenage acne or skin problems, if your body has gone through major hormonal changes like pregnancy or menopause, this product could still be a good match for you. However, people who are currently taking strong acne medications like Accutane and have clear skin, can still experience severe breakouts from using this product. The reviews indicate that people in their 40s and above tend to have the highest satisfaction with this product. The Naver reviews in Korea are heavily influenced by the brand's advertising, and it seems the US reviews are not much better. The reviews I read showed that it was mostly younger, single people in their 10s to 30s who experienced major skin flare-ups from using this. It was surprising to see so many people, who had never dealt with severe acne, blemishes, oiliness or redness before, express such anger and frustration over the issues this product caused them.
TipI've been wondering why this product works fine at the dermatologist's office, but causes such issues when used at home. Even at the dermatologist, I've had a couple instances where I got a pimple or two the same evening, but they would go away the next morning. I think that's likely due to the effects of this product. At the clinic, they provide additional treatments and care that seem to soothe my skin, but when I use it at home by myself, just applying it in the targeted areas is difficult because the liquid just gushes out. Unless I scoop it up with my palm and apply it with my fingertips, just putting the dropper on my face results in the product just flowing all over (it's not like a regular toner, it's more like running water). Apparently this product works really well for older users, like my parents' age group. But don't be fooled by the claims of powerful antioxidants and whitening benefits - it's just not worth the risk. I've cried tears looking at how messed up my skin got. There's a burning, stinging sensation as well. I've seen this product sold at dermatology clinics, but you absolutely must do a patch test before trying it. A hand test won't cut it - it goes straight to your pores. After I stopped using it, the bumps went away within 2 days and my skin went back to normal. This is a really scary product. And it costs 180,000 won! The Naver reviews seem to be heavily influenced by the brand's advertising. If you want to see more honest feedback, search for "Skinceuticals" on US Google and read the English reviews. There are a lot of horror stories. I was one of the "lucky" ones who didn't get as severely affected, but I've seen people who used 3-4 drops get acne bombs all over their face and neck.
