This serum seems to penetrate deep into the skin. My sister and I have completely opposite skin types, but we both found it to be an excellent product shortly after using it. I'm not sure about its brightening effects. The price is a bit disappointing. - Hwahae UserDry SkinSensitive SkinMar 26, 2017
The lightweight formula is easy to apply, and it definitely seems to have a brightening effect. I have skin that tans easily in the sun, but after using this, I could use a foundation one shade lighter. It also seems to reduce the accumulation of tan over time. The price is a real killer! Since my skin darkens again if I stop using it, I feel like I need to keep applying it consistently. But the cost is just too much of a burden. It's said that whitening products should be applied first in your skincare routine. Use it right after your toner, before any other essences or serums. - Hwahae UserDry SkinSensitive SkinAtopic SkinMar 10, 2017
After using about one bottle, you can really see your skin becoming more translucent. People around me even commented that I looked paler, to the point where it was a bit scary and I stopped using it for a while. Dryness? I don't expect it to be moisturizing. It just absorbs into the skin like water. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinJul 27, 2016
First off, I absolutely adored the fragrance of this product. It's not overpowering, but rather a subtle and pleasant scent that lifts your mood. The texture is lightweight and absorbs effortlessly, leaving your skin feeling hydrated. With consistent use, I noticed an improvement in both my skin texture and complexion. The price point is on the higher side, which is a drawback. Also, it might not provide enough hydration during the fall and winter months when skin tends to be drier. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinJun 10, 2016
It really brightens the skin! The absorption is excellent. I applied it to my boyfriend with darker skin, and after about two weeks, I noticed blemishes appearing on his face. As his complexion became brighter, the hidden spots became visible. He doesn't usually use skincare products, so maybe that's why the effects were more noticeable. Either way, I was amazed by the results! Since it's a brightening line, I guess dryness is unavoidable. I used it with other products from the same line, but overall, it felt quite drying. Maybe it's better suited for summer use? It seemed to work even better when used with the toner and emulsion from the same line. Later, when I only used the essence, the effects felt a bit weaker. - Hwahae UserDry SkinSensitive SkinFeb 22, 2016
My complexion seems brighter. It's not sticky and absorbs well into the skin. Considering the price, I feel the effectiveness is lacking. I can't notice any changes. I'm not sure if I'll repurchase. 
la******Normal SkinAcne SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsJan 18, 2016The elegant and luxurious packaging is the one and only positive aspect. The brightening effect is significantly inferior compared to other serums. I thought it was just drying when applied alone, but it turns out it contains two types of alcohol (ethanol and denatured alcohol). I regret using it frequently when I was younger, assuming it was good simply because it was expensive. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinDec 27, 2015
It absorbs well and leaves my skin feeling nicely hydrated. It seems a bit on the pricey side. Being a Japanese product, I'm concerned about potential radiation. - Hwahae UserDry SkinAcne SkinDec 13, 2015
It feels moisturizing and seems to provide good hydration. Although it's a Japanese product which makes me a bit uneasy, overall it seems pretty good. It feels a bit expensive. Being a Japanese product, I'm also quite concerned about radiation. - jh******Combination SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinOct 26, 2015
The brightening effect is excellent. It absorbs without any stickiness. Effective for improving acne scars and reducing redness. The plastic container is lightweight, making it convenient to carry around as a portable option. The scent is a bit off-putting... reminds me of men's cologne? The price is somewhat on the expensive side.
