Pros
First of all, it was effective in moisturizing and I definitely saw whitening effects. The freckles seem to have faded a bit.
Cons
While it did help with brightening and evening out the skin tone, some small bumps appeared. So I couldn't use it consistently, and I think I'll need to use it occasionally for periods of time when I need the brightening effect.

Pros
I used it for about a week and noticed a whitening effect! When I woke up, my skin looked brighter overall. With consistent use, the effect was maintained! It had a slightly oily feel, so I used 1 pump in the morning and 2 pumps in the evening.<
Cons
It didn't absorb as quickly as a watery essence due to the oily feel.

Pros
I bought the entire tomato line because I heard it was good for whitening. When I applied it, my face immediately looked brighter, which I really liked! However, the brightness didn't last very long.
Cons
As for what I was disappointed about, well, there's not much really. The only thing is that the size is a bit small..? It runs out too quickly.

Pros
At first, I received a lot of samples and used them, and I felt that my face was getting brighter, so I bought the full-size product. I'm not sure if there was a huge effect, but I felt that my skin tone was getting brighter as I used it consistently! I was worried about breakouts, but I didn't have any issues with that!
Cons
When using the essence alone, there is a slightly drying feeling, so it's better to apply it after a good hydrating and moisturizing step.

Pros
There was a slight improvement in skin tone (it may have been just my imagination, but at least my face didn't look dull) and the appropriate moisture level without being too greasy, which I found quite nice.
Cons
However, when using it as an essence in the fall or winter, it feels a bit lightweight and I feel like it lacks a bit of moisture.

Pros
I have a lot of oil in my T-zone and am slightly sensitive! The watery essence had amazing glide, which I really liked since I hate anything sticky. And since the whitening ingredients are in it, I used it almost daily, and I think that's why my skin looks a bit brighter - my cheeks used to be a bit red, but now the skin tone seems more even. I bought it around August and still haven't used it up yet, so I guess I didn't use it too liberally. I would definitely repurchase this.♡
Cons
The price is a bit steep considering the volume.ㅋㅋㅋ I'd be hesitant to buy it unless it's on sale. And since it's a pump bottle, you have to turn it upside down towards the end to get the last bits out.

Pros
I'm using my second bottle now. My skin is oily in the summer and dry in the winter, but this product works well for me even in the summer. After about 3 months of use, my skin seems to have brightened, so the whitening function seems to be working well. They say that whitening products with effects that show up before 3 months usually have strong ingredients. The product has little to no scent, and I plan to repurchase it.
Cons
I have combination skin, so it tends to be a bit dry in the winter. As the weather is getting colder, my skin is starting to feel a bit tight and dry.

Pros
In the morning, after applying a moisturizer and doing my makeup, I felt it was too heavy, so I used an essence instead of the moisturizer. The makeup absorbs well and leaves my skin feeling hydrated, plus it has whitening properties, so my skin tone has become brighter and a lot of my blemishes have faded. It's amazing!
Cons
The price is a bit steep, but I think it's worth it! When it comes to caring for my skin, I believe it's worth the investment.
Tip
When I apply it before doing my makeup, it keeps my skin feeling hydrated and nourished all day long!!

Pros
This is the first time I've used a whitening product. I didn't have high expectations, but my skin did get a bit brighter. Rather than becoming completely white, my skin tone has become more luminous. But I actually prefer this. Even though I have oily skin, I didn't feel like there was excess oil, and I haven't had any breakouts yet.
Cons
First of all, there's an issue with the packaging. When I pump it, it comes out with a squeaky sound and splatters everywhere. And in terms of application, it doesn't have a smooth, soft feel after applying. It's more like a sticky, tacky, or dense texture. It's a different sensation from just oiliness, and it's hard for me to describe. Personally, I don't particularly like this type of formula.
Tip
I see, thanks for the tip. I'll try cupping my hand when pumping the product to prevent it from splattering everywhere.

Pros
The whitening effect is great. It seems to suit my dry skin well.
Cons
It has a rich feel, so I only use it on my T-zone during the summer. It feels a bit heavy for summer use.
