Despite long-term use, its effect on blemishes around the under-eye and cheekbone area is disappointingly minimal. It might be better to just visit a dermatologist for a quick laser treatment. Personally, the scent, possibly due to the geranium ingredient, is bothersome. I'd prefer the natural smell of the ingredients, even if it's not great. Also, all vitamin C serums tend to pill when you apply cream on top. I'd only recommend using it for nighttime skincare routines where pilling doesn't matter.

It dries quickly. Being an Amazon bestseller gives it an exciting appeal.

Recommended to purchase when it's 50% off on Amazon
(Regular price is $35 for 2oz, discounted price is $17)

Lately, cheaper alternatives seem to be appearing on Amazon
Reasonable for its price range, but not exceptional

Contains beneficial ingredients like Vitamin C, E, and MSM
Absorbs well
Proven effectiveness as Amazon's #1 bestselling serum

When I first applied it, it was so tingling that it was really hard to get used to

I haven't noticed any major effects yet, but I think my blemishes might have decreased a bit?

Use it only at night. Since it contains vitamin C, using it during the day might cause dark pigmentation on your skin.

There's no noticeable long-lasting effect that you can see with your own eyes... It feels a bit lacking when it comes to brightening.

Well, it does have some effect compared to Korean products. It does brighten the skin a bit.

If it feels dry, try layering an emulsion or cream on top to improve the feeling. Alternatively, sleeping with a humidifier on full blast can help alleviate the dryness.

It feels very dry once it dries down. If you don't like that, you can apply another moisturizing product on top. It's a bit pricey to purchase directly from overseas.

My blemishes and acne on the sides of my cheeks have improved a bit after using this product. There weren't any particular side effects, which is great. It has a runny texture, but it absorbs within 5 seconds of application. I was looking for a product rich in vitamin C and bought this popular overseas item - I'm extremely satisfied. Definitely repurchasing. As you consistently apply it, you'll notice your skin peeling. Don't forcibly remove this; keep using it, and you'll see new skin forming underneath. The pigmented areas peel off as the skin regenerates. If you persist, you'll see results. You need to apply it consistently with patience.

I bought it because it's affordable and has many reviews, but when I apply it, my skin feels dry and it seems like my skin is peeling off slightly. I'm not sure if it's actually exfoliating or not, but it feels like the outer layer of my skin is coming off a bit

It absorbs well, but I feel like it's making my skin sensitive and dry

So far, I haven't found any drawbacks. It absorbs well.

When you apply this, dryness disappears and your skin becomes moisturized. The next day, your complexion looks brighter.

I didn't notice any remarkable effects. The bottle is quite small, and I used it up in just a month.

I appreciated that it didn't cause any blemishes. If I had to pick one thing, it would be its gentle feel on the skin.

Not recommended for those who dislike tangy scents. I'm not particularly fond of it, but I'm still using it for now.

I've only applied it three times, so I'm not entirely sure yet, but it doesn't seem to have any major drawbacks. If I notice any brightening effects, I'll come back to update my review.

It's a bit disappointing that the improvement in freckles isn't as noticeable as I had hoped. I'm expecting that with consistent application, it might show better results.

I usually have a lot of blemishes, so I'm hesitant to switch products even when they're highly recommended. But my husband bought this for me because of the good reviews, and I've been using it. I'm pleased that it doesn't cause any blemishes at all. Since it's summer, my daughter's face has been getting more freckles, so I've been diligently applying this to her skin. It's working well!

The international shipping costs are quite high. Some serums aren't available for direct purchase on Amazon, so you need to use a forwarding service, which takes about 3 weeks for delivery. However, you can buy their creams directly from Amazon, which usually arrive in about 7 days.

The lightweight, fluid texture makes it perfect for year-round use. I typically use one bottle for 3-4 months, and by the time I finish it, there's a noticeable difference in my skin. It leaves my complexion hydrated, visibly reduces dark spots, and even helps with pore management (though results may vary). It's an organic product with great ingredients, and the price is reasonable too.

I stumbled upon this brand as a gift, and now I've switched to their retinol, vitamin cream, and eye cream. I even emailed them asking if they'd consider selling in Korea!
