You have to apply it directly onto your skin and massage it in right away, which I loved because it forces you to give yourself a face massage without setting aside extra time. It feels like water droplets on your skin, and I appreciated that the scent wasn't overpowering. Using it once a week was perfect too! I don't think I could manage using this every single day though.
ConsAfter using the whole bottle and constantly rolling it on my skin, I'm not sure if my skin became desensitized, but the feeling was rather dull and I didn't like it. I was worried if it was harming my skin, and sure enough, right after applying it, red blemishes appeared all over my face. It stung and felt strange. Also, having to constantly remove and replace the roller was inconvenient.

Rinse off after 10 minutes. Then apply the Omega. Texture: Thin liquid (5ml) applied all at once. Absorption: The thin liquid absorbs well with massage-like application. Skin feels hydrated. The 5ml quantity is surprisingly generous. However, the instructions recommend using the entire amount in one application for best results. (There must be a reason for this!) After application, you may feel a slight tingling sensation and tightness. It's a shame to wash off this precious liquid after just 10 minutes, but I rinsed thoroughly with water only. Finish with the Omega (feels like an essence). The ingredients are excellent. It's a functional cosmetic for antioxidation, brightening, wrinkle improvement, and firmness. What's impressive is the lack of harsh chemicals - it really feels like an honest skincare brand that prioritizes nature and skin health. I'm usually cautious with functional products due to my sensitive skin, but I experienced no blemishes at all. Rather than relying on harsh chemicals to forcefully penetrate the skin, this product seems to focus on research using quality ingredients and technology to benefit the skin. Don't expect dramatic results - this is a product designed for gradual improvement with consistent use. I've noticed subtle improvements in skin elasticity and fine lines. I wanted to show before/after photos, but after only 2 weeks of use, the changes aren't visually apparent yet. I've observed improvements in skin clarity, brightening, and firmness.
ConsThis product is suitable for all skin types. While individual results may vary, the fact that my sensitive skin tolerated it well suggests it doesn't contain irritating or harsh ingredients. The price point is on the higher side. However, I'd choose this product with its pure, natural herbal ingredients and advanced technology over mass-market brands that advertise 'functional' products full of chemicals. The Alpha solution does sting a bit when applied. I'm curious about the reason for this. After rinsing, there's no stinging or irritation.
TipSince the product is liquid and generous in quantity, use the applicator to apply it directly to the skin in small amounts to prevent it from dripping. After applying both Alpha and Omega, I felt a slight dryness, so I added a layer of chemical-free moisturizer. After applying Omega, I didn't feel the need to add other products, but I did apply some of the same chemical-free line around my eyes and mouth. I'm unsure about this part - whether it's necessary to apply additional products or not.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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.ProsThe lightweight, water-like texture absorbs well into the skin. It's pleasantly hydrating, making it perfect for the current weather. With the sun getting stronger, I've been more conscious about my skin lately. While the regular price of 153,000 won for the Alpha+Omega set might seem expensive for cosmetics, it feels like an affordable investment in your skin compared to dermatologist treatments. The Alpha set includes one 5ml full-size product and three refills, enough for 4 weeks. You only need to use it once a week. Checking the website, I noticed it contains fat-dissolving ingredients, suggesting it's not your average product. The massage helps with blood circulation too. While I'm not sure about the specific ingredients, my interpretation is that it absorbs, cleanses, exfoliates, and promotes new cell growth. It seems similar to a Fraxel treatment concept, but without the intense pain associated with the procedure. This could be great for those hesitant about getting treatments. It should work well for most skin types.
ConsAlthough the brand claims it's non-irritating, quite a few Hwahae Testers, including myself, experienced some skin irritation. When applying Alpha, I noticed redness and a tingling sensation, which was disappointing. It also felt a bit drying during the waiting period. If these symptoms persist, it might not be suitable for my skin. I'll need to use it a bit longer to be sure. It's hard to tell if these are positive effects or signs that it doesn't suit my skin. Higher-nutrition products with stronger effects can sometimes cause irritation. Another downside is that the application process is a bit complex and cumbersome. But then again, beauty requires some time investment, right?
TipAfter cleansing, squeeze out the entire contents of one Alpha packet onto your hands and apply it to your face. Massage it in, gently patting to help absorption. It takes about 10 minutes to apply, plus another 10 minutes of waiting for further absorption. After 10 minutes, rinse with water (soap is fine too). Then apply Omega (which has an essence-like texture), and if you have dry cheeks, follow up with a cream. Ideally, it's best not to use any other products with this routine.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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.ProsThis is a review from The Hwahae Testers. The Vimini product includes a 4-week supply of Alpha Ampoule and Omega Essence Cream, designed to be used together for 4 weeks as a basic regimen. They recommend using both products together for synergistic effects. The slightly complex usage instructions come with a helpful guide. I really appreciated how the elegantly packaged box was completely sealed, protecting the product from external temperatures and stimuli, ensuring freshness. Based on the 28-day skin regeneration cycle, 4 weeks is the standard usage period, so it's difficult to fully assess the dramatic effects or pros and cons after just 2 weeks of use. What I liked most about the Vimini products was their unique formulation and composition compared to existing products, along with simple yet high-quality ingredients and fragrance-free formula. The first week's 5ml Vimini Alpha comes in a pump bottle for easy use. The subsequent ampoules are weekly refills, giving a fresh feeling with each new opening. The water-like texture felt like doing a 7-skin routine. Instead of using cotton pads, I had to continuously massage it into my skin for absorption. It absorbed faster than expected and felt like it was building up layers on my skin. Even in the short 10-minute waiting period, I felt a slight tightening of the skin, and it also gave a unique sensation similar to when skin becomes soft and plump after soaking in bath water. After massaging and waiting 10 minutes, then rinsing with water, my skin felt incredibly smooth, like a peeled egg. The second week of use felt similar, so it's been a continuous repetition. Up to the second week, rather than noticing significant changes, I've observed that my skin has become smoother with a bit more radiance and vitality after using the product. Moisture retention also seems better than before using the product. They say using Vimini Alpha once a week can maintain youthful skin, so I'm looking forward to seeing the results after 4 weeks. See you in 4 weeks to check on my skin condition!
ConsEvery time I applied and reapplied Vimini Alpha, massaging it in, it stung, especially on my forehead, cheeks, nasolabial folds, and jawline. The 5ml amount seemed more than expected, and I had to massage to the point where my arms ached. While I got the hang of it by the second week, shortening the application time, I still couldn't shake off the feeling that it was cumbersome. I wish it came in a capsule form that could be lightly massaged in after initial absorption. During the 10-minute wait after massaging the product in, my skin felt tight and constricted. Rather than a lifting sensation, I oddly felt like my skin was becoming dry. This was a bit confusing for my very dry skin, so I'll need to keep using it to make a proper assessment. There was a lingering sticky feeling even after cleansing, so it would be helpful if the instructions provided more details on the cleansing process. After rinsing with water only, my skin felt slightly tight, similar to how it feels after using a foaming cleanser with scrub particles. Again, I'm unsure if this is a lifting effect or dryness. When I immediately used Vimini Omega afterwards, it also stung, itched, and caused redness. Oddly, I didn't notice any particularly irritating ingredients in the list, with aloe being the only potentially sensitizing one I could think of. But I've never experienced this kind of stinging with other aloe-containing products, so I'm not sure if it's due to the whitening ingredients. This is another issue I'll need to monitor over the 4-week period, but even if it's just a skin adaptation phase, the stinging and itching are a bit concerning.
TipAfter using Vimini Alpha, I experienced stinging and skin dryness, so I applied a bit more Vimini Omega. Initially, it stung, itched, and caused redness, but after some time, it gradually calmed down, and I felt moisture building up with a noticeable glow on my skin. The texture of Vimini Omega is also close to a flowing essence, absorbing immediately upon application. I increased the amount used, and after a few hours, I couldn't feel any dryness, suggesting it helps with hydration. If Vimini Alpha caused irritation due to its whitening ingredients, using it together with Vimini Omega seems beneficial for me, as it provides some hydration and soothing effects, albeit taking a bit of time. In my case, I prefer using this combination rather than other hydrating products. When massaging and absorbing the 5ml of Vimini Alpha, its water-like texture caused it to drip and even get into my mouth during the first use. For the second application, I found a better method: I stood in front of a large bathroom mirror, tilted my face upwards, pumped the product close to my face, and held my palms perpendicular to my face to prevent dripping. This worked much better!

It's a dual-functional product for brightening and anti-wrinkle effects. While the full results will be clear after 4 weeks of use, it's convenient that the entire skincare routine consists of just ampoules and cream.
ConsWhen using the product, I experienced slight tingling and redness, especially around areas with blemishes or thin skin like the eye area. There was also a bit of itching. Since I used it during summer, I feel the oil and moisture balance might be insufficient for winter use.

This is based on using the Alpha product once a week, for a total of two applications. I was told that using an entire Alpha ampoule at once yields the best results, and I was initially worried about how long it would take to apply. However, it absorbs well, so application was quicker than expected! As it's absorbed, there's a tightening sensation on the skin, making it feel like my pores are shrinking and wrinkles are smoothing out. My complexion has brightened a bit, though not dramatically. I think it might become even brighter after 4 weeks of use. It reminds me of the ampoules used in professional facials, so I'm really looking forward to seeing the results!
ConsThe watery consistency makes it slightly inconvenient to apply. I experienced a slight tingling sensation during application. After using the Alpha product and washing my face, the tingling intensified when applying the Beta product. I have super sensitive skin, and since this product contains natural ingredients, I suspect that's causing the tingling. But I guess we have to endure a bit for beauty, right?

The luxurious product design had me buzzing with excitement! I was thrilled about the pure, natural ingredients like ginseng, angelica, green tea, mushroom, and ginkgo. It's a 4-time use product, but I've only used it twice so far, so I'm not sure about all the benefits yet.
ConsI have extremely sensitive dry skin. My T-zone is generally fine, but the U-zone, especially my cheeks, is super sensitive and prone to blemishes with sudden temperature changes or depending on my condition. I was relieved that the Vimini ampoule contained no chemical ingredients, but my sensitive cheek area still felt a stinging sensation. I figured it was because my skin is more sensitive than most people's. (Out of curiosity, I asked my mom, who has resilient skin, to try it, and she didn't feel any irritation at all...) For the Vimini Omega, which contains functional ingredients, I only applied it to my T-zone - forehead, nose, and chin - avoiding the U-zone. Fortunately, that worked out fine. The ampoule has a water-like consistency but comes in a syringe-type container, which made it very inconvenient to use. It was difficult to control the amount, and sometimes it would spray everywhere. I even spent about 3 minutes berating myself, wondering if it was just my lack of skill. The amount for one use is more than I expected, and trying to keep it on for the full 10 minutes made my skin feel tight, so I washed it off after 8 minutes. I wish they would either change the ampoule formulation or the container design. It would be better if they reduced the amount per use so it could last 8 weeks instead of 4, and made it possible to apply the Omega or cream directly after the ampoule without having to rinse it off. This would make the routine less cumbersome.
TipIf you channel your inner Energizer Bunny when applying, the ampoule might spray or drip everywhere, so dispense it onto your hand and apply it quickly. If you don't apply it fast enough, your skin will feel tight.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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 received a package containing both Alpha and Omega as a set. What stood out was that Alpha was meant for weekly use, with a total of 4 applications. The single-use Alpha came in a syringe-like applicator, which was an innovative approach. Even after reading the instructions, I double-checked with the company due to the review period and used it twice in total. The process involves applying Alpha for about 5 minutes after cleansing, leaving it on for 10 minutes, then rinsing it off and applying Omega. In the first week, I was surprised by how quickly the product came out, despite its water-like consistency. I carefully applied it to different areas of my face, gently massaging it in. It took longer than expected to use all the product. The second week, I applied it more liberally across my entire face. While there weren't any noticeable effects on wrinkles or brightening, the unique application method was refreshing. I still have two more applications left and will update on the experience.
ConsDuring the first week, my skin felt irritated. I initially blamed it on over-touching my skin or a pre-existing wound. The next day, I noticed a scab-like spot on my forehead. My cheeks also felt warm, which I attributed to the massage. In the second week, despite applying the product more carefully, I still experienced stinging sensations around my forehead and right cheek. The following day, I was alarmed to find several clear, pus-filled scabs on my forehead. After cleansing, these areas became red and raised. Given that I've never had such reactions to skincare before, didn't wear makeup during use, and had no prior blemishes, I'm convinced this product is causing the irritation. While it doesn't seem to be spreading or infected, there's definitely some skin sensitivity occurring.
TipThe product isn't just water-like - it's literally water! When you press the back of the syringe, it comes out quickly. To avoid splashing, tilt your face slightly and apply it to different areas. Then use your other hand to spread and absorb it. It absorbs very quickly. During the 10-minute wait, your skin might feel tight and dry. If this feels like irritation to you, feel free to use a cleanser again when you wash it off.

It's almost unbelievable that this product is made solely with pure water and extracts. It feels almost too precious to wash off... haha! It really does drip down your face. The quantity is incredibly generous. I was able to apply it not just to my face, but also to my neck and the back of my hands. It's a colorless, odorless, and tasteless product (accidentally got some in my nose). I think those with super sensitive skin will really appreciate this. Interestingly, it seems to absorb better on my cheeks than on my thinner forehead skin. After the product is fully absorbed, there's a slight feeling of tightness. And because it comes in a syringe-like ampoule, it gives you that special treatment feeling. When rinsing it off with water, it feels slippery, surprisingly similar to washing off a sleeping pack!
ConsIt's a bit cumbersome to use... The consistency is so watery that it just runs down your face. I wonder why they chose the syringe-like packaging. Given the generous amount, it takes quite a while for the skin to absorb it all. And because I had to keep massaging and patting my face to help it absorb, my skin started to feel a bit irritated. It doesn't pill up like some products do, though.
TipIn my opinion, if this product were released as a sheet mask essence, it would be much more convenient to use and might absorb better.

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 initially applied for The Hwahae Testers because of the great ingredients. For Alpha, you're supposed to use it once a week, finish the whole bottle, and let it absorb for 10 minutes. The amount is so generous that it already takes about 10 minutes just to apply it. It's described as water-like, and it really does run down your face, so you need to apply it quickly. Right after application, I felt an intense tightening sensation. I'm not sure if it's temporary, but even the wrinkles around my eyes seemed reduced. The deep wrinkles around my eyes appeared less pronounced... though I'm not sure if that's real or just my imagination. Omega is meant to be applied daily, and for summer weather like now, both its texture and absorption are just perfect!
ConsI'm updating my review after two weeks of use. During the first week, when I applied Alpha, I felt a stinging sensation on my cheeks. After washing it off and applying Omega, I experienced tingling all over my face. The next day, when I applied Omega again, my face still stung a bit. The day after, I noticed three or four small blemishes, so I stopped using it on my entire face for 4 days, only applying Omega around my eyes. In the second week, I applied Alpha nervously, but there was no irritation. After 10 minutes, I washed it off and applied Omega, which stung less than the previous week. The next day, no small blemishes appeared. I wonder if it just needs an adjustment period...
TipWhen applying Alpha, you can apply it quickly if you watch TV and do it mindlessly! Since it runs down, make sure to apply plenty to your neck and then wash it off!
