Pros
The Clarins Double Serum Summer Edition has separate moisture and oil layers, so you just need to shake it before use. I bought it out of curiosity to match the price at the store, but I didn't know I would be this satisfied. This is the perfect basic skincare for spring and summer, with a well-balanced oil-water ratio. Before shaking, it's like a toner, but after mixing the oil and water layers, it becomes slightly thicker, with a texture between a toner and an essence. It absorbs quite well, and when you rub it between your palms and press it into your face, the lovely scent is so soothing... Using it alone can lower your stress levels. I think I'll repurchase it once I finish this bottle. It can be used regardless of skin type, and for combination to normal skin, this alone should be enough in the summer. But for very dry skin, it might not be sufficient.
Cons
On days when my skin feels particularly oily, I only used it on my neck.

Pros
This serum really moisturizes the skin and makes it bouncy and plump when used!! 💙💦 It resolves dryness and after using this product, the dryness was greatly improved!! It doesn't pill under makeup and helps makeup apply more smoothly and moisturized. The serum spreads gently on the skin and absorbs well. The skin texture becomes much softer and the skin condition greatly improves!! My skin is very sensitive and products often irritate or cause breakouts, but I didn't experience any issues like that after using this product!
Cons
I don't think there was anything particularly disappointing about using this serum!
Tip
This serum is great on its own, but when used together with the matching cream from the same line, it creates an even greater synergy and my skin condition improved even more!!

The serum was great as it is a water-based formula, absorbing quickly without any greasiness!

None!!! This is a serum that can be used comfortably regardless of the season.

Pros
This is the product I love the most these days. After cleansing, when I apply it, the feeling of it seeping into my skin is incredibly good. The finish is also refreshing and non-sticky. The scent is also super nice. I think I'll keep using it for a while.
Cons
The price range is a bit disappointing.. Other than that, there's no downside.

Pros
1. My all-time favorite hydrating essence I've tried various hydrating serums, essences, and ampoules, but they would only feel moisturized when applied and then feel like the moisture was escaping over time. However, the Clarins hydrating essence has amazing lasting power.:) It has a light, watery-like, skin-like texture, but the moisture doesn't evaporate and deeply penetrates into the skin. 2. The lightweight and fine particles feel great on the skin without any heaviness.
Cons
1. The price point can be a concern 2. It needs to be shaken before use (but this is not a major inconvenience)

Pros
This is a good moisturizing serum to use. It has oil mixed in, so the moisture lasts longer. The fine particles absorb well, and the blue color gives a refreshing, moisturized feeling. Personally, I like this better than the double serum. Using the lifting serum at night and this one during the day works great for me.
Cons
After using it for a while, there's a defect where the pump doesn't dispense evenly and it sprays out to the side. Even just pumping it once covers the whole face, so the amount doesn't seem to go down much. 😅 It's said to have a lot of harmful ingredients (but only 2 besides the dye and fragrance).
Tip
Be sure to shake it before using. I apply it by putting it on both hands, then alternating between my right and left hands to spread it on my face (after cupping my face with both hands and crossing over once more). Since it's a mix of water and oil, it has a different weight than other products.

Pros
It gives a moisturizing feeling and is absorbed very lightly. As I have oily skin, I dislike an oily sensation, so this product was great to use without any burden.
Cons
These days, there are many 'clean' cosmetics, but this one has fragrance ingredients, which is a bit disappointing.

Pros
I found this serum after using various ones due to severe dehydration. It absorbs quickly, resolves dryness fast, and does not cause my makeup to budge at all - I love it so much!! I bought the 50ml size and used almost all of it, and wanted to buy another one, but they said the 50ml was a limited edition, so I got the 30ml instead!!
Cons
The price though.... And I usually need to use two pumps, so it runs out quickly!! In the winter, it's too lightweight, so I also apply a richer moisturizer.
