Pleasant Scent

Not Oily

Easy to Apply

Lightweight

Subtle Scent

Easily Absorbed

It's quite expensive, and the ingredients aren't great. Plus, it causes a tingling sensation on my face when I apply it, which is uncomfortable.

It seems great for brightening up my hands. I have darker skin on my hands, but applying this makes them look lighter and more even-toned.

바이탈 비타 12 시너지 세럼

Even after carefully wiping the cap, product still gets on it when closed.

It was easy to use and I liked the price. The packaging was nice too.

If you have dry skin, you might find the hydration from this alone insufficient. Make sure to follow up with a moisturizing cream after applying this product to replenish your skin's moisture. Otherwise, you'll likely feel dry.

This serum applies richer and with more substance than the toner from the same line. It's definitely great for hydration, and since it's a vitamin product, I feel like my skin has become more translucent with consistent use. Given the price point for serums, I'd recommend purchasing it when it's on sale for a better deal.

There's nothing I dislike about this product. The only minor drawback might be that the quantity is a bit small for the price. However, considering that vitamin C skincare products are generally expensive, I think it's still reasonably priced. It used to be sold in stores, but now it's only available on TONYMOLY's online shop. When it was in stores, they often had great sales, and I could buy it at a nice discount... I miss those days!

A few years ago, I had severe acne that left me with significant scarring. I tried everything - even underwent Fraxel laser treatment twice and used countless creams and serums promising skin regeneration, but nothing seemed to work. I was about to give up when I learned about vitamin C's benefits for scars. By chance, I spotted this product at a TONYMOLY shop and decided to give it a try. I didn't expect much, but within days, my scars started to fade, and my complexion improved so noticeably that even others commented on it. I was heartbroken when it was discontinued (such an amazing product!), but I'm thrilled to have found it's back for sale online. I recently repurchased it and couldn't be happier. Another great thing about this product is its gentleness. Vitamin C can be harsh for those with sensitive skin, and I've tried other brands that left my skin tingling and irritated. However, this line is incredibly gentle on the skin, which is a huge plus.

🧡For those with dry skin, using this vitamin serum along with your regular skin and cream in the summer can provide a refreshing, balanced routine.
For those with oily skin, this can be a great option even in the winter.🧡

1. Lack of Moisture and Hydration
-As mentioned in the recommendation type, this would be severely lacking in moisture and hydration for dry skin types, making it unsuitable for me to use in the winter. Layering it three times might work, but that would be a waste of product. This would be better suited for dry skin types in the summer, when it can provide a refreshing feel.

2. Pump Issues
-Even with about a third of the product remaining, the pump started becoming difficult to use. While it still dispenses when manually pressed, it's an inconvenience. Improvement in this area would be appreciated.

3. Lack of Distinct Features
-While this is a vitamin serum and provides some benefits with long-term use, it doesn't have any particularly strong or distinctive features compared to other popular essences. It's a fairly standard essence.

💙Subjective Recommendation Type: Neutral, Dry, Combination (Dry in Summer!)💙

1. Good Fragrance
-The serum seems to have a refreshing, citrusy scent, likely due to the vitamins it contains. Those who enjoy citrus fragrances will probably love it, and it's a scent that most people won't dislike.

2. Fresh Texture
-When pumped, the texture feels slightly more viscous than an essence, but it absorbs smoothly without any stickiness after application, leaving a refreshing feel. This would be a great option for those with oily skin.

3. Brightens Complexion with Consistent Use
-I'm usually skeptical of vitamin skincare products, but after consistently using this as a gift, I noticed my complexion looking more refined. Dramatic effects shouldn't be expected, and for that, professional clinic treatments would be more appropriate. Considering the volume, functionality, efficacy, and price, I think this is a decent product.

(I wish there was a 3.5-star rating option! It's not quite a 4-star, but I'd like to give it around 3.5 stars.)

I wouldn't recommend it for winter use... It's way too lightweight 😢 It might be good for oily skin types, but for someone like me with dehydrated oily skin or dry skin, I think it would feel extremely drying.

The scent was pleasantly refreshing, as described by the 'vitamin serum' name. It applied lightly and absorbed quickly. It's a cream formula, not a water-based one, and it doesn't slide off when applied before makeup, which is great!

This Vita line has a toner, serum, cream, and eye cream. There is no separate lotion. For oily to normal skin types, you can skip the lotion after the toner and just apply this serum. For dry skin,

In late fall when it's dry, I now apply one layer and then apply another layer after 5 minutes. 
Since it's a serum-type with little oil content, I also need to apply a cream when it's dry.

The moisturizing cream+ radiance serum is quite hydrating, even in the spring, summer, and fall seasons, without the need for a separate moisturizing cream.
The formula is similar to mixing an essence and a moisturizing cream. 
When applied, the skin becomes brighter and more hydrated, which is why I like using this product.

After application, the thin film-like layer makes me feel like the next step of my routine doesn't absorb well. I think makeup would not apply smoothly over this, so it might be difficult to use in the morning.

The texture is like a watery moisturizer. I like that it doesn't have much oil. When applied, my face feels slightly refreshed and it spreads well. It absorbs quickly and is well-absorbed. After absorption, it feels like a thin film is left on the face, lightly tightening the skin.

For those who want a richer finish, I suggest applying the toner, this product, and then a cream on top as an additional layer.

I used it by pumping it two or three times, but it seems the moisturizing power is a bit weak, which is disappointing. I like that it absorbs quickly, but the dewy finish only lasts about 10% and then it becomes a bit dry and powdery.

The texture is thick and opaque, like a jelly. It absorbs well into the skin and pairs nicely with the toner from the same line.
As it's part of the vitamin line, it has a subtle tangy scent that is not overbearing.
I'd recommend this to anyone looking to use a vitamin-based skincare routine.

I first use the Vita peeling pads, and then apply the skin and serum like this!

There's nothing really bad about it...Just buy it when it's on sale!!I use it quite often.

Applying the Vita skin and serum like this in the summer seems like a good idea.
The scent is nice, and it doesn't seem too oily. It seems to brighten my skin! After applying, it feels so smooth and soft. The application is really nice and smooth too.
