I first bought it after being convinced by a younger friend who was really into skincare. The retinol works wonders for me, and I've seen great results for wrinkles and anti-aging! It has a sticky, rich texture that feels like it's strengthening my skin barrier. I'm on my Nth bottle now. When it's on sale, the price is quite reasonable too!
ConsThe packaging is really, really disappointing. I've mentioned this in several reviews, but if you lay it down, the product leaks! Such a shame for such an amazing product. Please make the container more sturdy!
TipApply it by gently patting onto areas where you're concerned about wrinkles! It's a total steal when you buy it during the official website sales.

Thanks to the retinol, I've seen significant improvements in reducing wrinkles and boosting skin elasticity. As I have combination skin, I use this as part of my weekly routine. After my sebum control treatment, I follow up the next evening with a night care regimen combining this retinol honey serum and the C5 Super Boost Moisturizer. I've noticed my skin starting to develop a beautiful glow! Using it alongside my sebum management routine has been great for tackling blackheads too. I started using it three times a week initially, and by the third week, I increased the frequency to four times a week. It's recommended to gradually increase usage like this! For those serious about skincare, I highly recommend trying a retinol serum!
ConsThose with dry skin might find it lacks a bit of oiliness. Even though I have combination skin, I apply this retinol serum along with a vitamin C moisturizer. If you're using your regular cream, it might be good to pair it with one that contains vitamin C!
TipResearch has shown that the combination of retinol and vitamin C is particularly effective. That's why I use this serum together with Paula's Choice Vitamin C5 Moisturizer. It truly gives my face a radiant glow - it's a golden combination that I highly recommend!

The spreadability was also good. It improved the appearance of wrinkles.
ConsIt causes breakouts. I sometimes avoid using it when my skin is sensitive.

I don't buy an eye cream separately and just apply this serum to the eye area and laugh lines~ While I'm not sure about deep wrinkles, I can feel that at least the fine lines and expression lines are being smoothed out~
ConsThe price is a bit steep..? Sometimes when I apply it all over my face, it can feel a bit stinging depending on my skin condition (occasionally)

ConsI'm not sure if I should say the packaging is too inefficient.. The stickiness that remains after application could be unappealing ㅠ.ㅠ
TipAfter your evening cleansing routine, just applying the skin toner followed by this product is sufficient^^

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsI used to just apply basic products (toner, lotion, etc.) when I ran out of the product after using it for a while, because it was a hassle to buy more. But then I noticed that my crow's feet and under-eye wrinkles were becoming more pronounced. So I ended up repurchasing it a month later. When I started using it again, the wrinkles visibly faded within just a few days!
ConsThe product volume is quite small. Even if I pump it only twice before bed, it seems to run out within one or two months. And I really dislike the new packaging. It oozes out every time I pump it, which I hate, so I switched to a different retinol product from Paula's Choice. But I think this product is still more effective. Please, just change the packaging!
TipBefore applying the cream, I massage it into the under-eye area, laugh lines, and neck lines, and let it absorb. Then I generously apply the cream on top. My skin looks radiant the next day!

It has no fragrance and is quickly absorbed. If applied consistently, it seems like it will help improve wrinkles.
ConsThe texture has a slightly honey-like, hair essence-like feel. It's fortunate that after absorption, there's no issue.
TipUse just a bean-sized amount.
