Pros
There was no irritation or breakouts. The watery, clear formula absorbs very quickly after application. It feels like a toner, not greasy or sticky, and applies with a refreshing sensation - I really liked it.
Cons
The amount is too little for the price... And I'm not sure about the effectiveness. I don't notice any brightening or fading of blemishes - it's just like a thin serum you apply after toner. It seems like a dud 😭

Pros
The whitening function is amazing. Since whitening products tend to be a bit irritating, I apply this ampoule and do a mask pack when my skin condition is relatively good. After removing the mask pack, wow, my skin is so radiant. The boundary where I didn't apply it is so noticeable. The watery texture absorbs quickly, and then I can follow up with a skincare routine or another mask pack.
Cons
But hey, what's wrong with you...why are you doing this to me? After using it once, the cystic acne that had been dormant for 2 months suddenly flared up within 24 hours. Small, non-oozing blisters also popped up. Red blotches appeared. People said I looked like I had chickenpox. My dermatologist strictly prohibited me from using any mask packs for now because of the skin inflammation. I'm a big mask pack fan and just bought 50 of them the other day... That doctor also told me to forget about using any whitening cosmetics. But that mask pack was a whitening one... My skin has been looking a bit better lately, so I stocked up on color cosmetics during the holiday to go out, and then she brought up the makeup issue and scolded me, saying I'm not in my right mind. Stress. Breakouts. I'm currently recovering with an 'Aura Casia' vibe from hell and wandering around the gates of hell every night... Secondary stress. Breakouts + Odor
Tip
I've been using it on my elbows and knees for pigmentation. Tertiary stress. Breakouts + Odor + Money wasted I want to upload a photo of my messed-up skin, but it's too extreme, so I can't. Quaternary stress. Breakouts + Odor + Money wasted + Sadness

Pros
I received the Eonisi Sample Set of 3 and this ampoule is said to be effective for whitening, and after using it consistently, I think it's good!! It didn't feel irritating or dry, and it felt good absorbing enough moisture!! For those with sensitive or dry skin, it would be even better to mix and use it!
Cons
The price is too expensive, and the volume seems a bit small ㅠㅠ Other than that, there's nothing else really.
Tip
If you layer the two by mixing them, your skin texture will improve, and when you wake up the next day, your skin will be super soft!! I highly recommend it!

Pros
A must-have product to apply after exfoliating! It absorbs lightly and well, so it's great to use as a base before applying other creams.
Cons
I felt like it had absolutely no moisturizing power, so I had to slather on a thick moisturizing cream or lotion.
Tip
Apply after exfoliating!

Pros
I've been using the product for a while and would like to share my review. I have a dry and sensitive skin type that tends to break out in pimples during seasonal changes or when exposed to cold winds. My original skin tone is 21, but I got severely sunburned last summer and my original skin tone has not fully returned, so I applied the product generously and used it overnight. The formula is refreshing and absorbs quickly. As this is a whitening product, I only used it in the past. After using it, my complexion seems to have brightened slightly, and even though I have many sensitive skin products that don't agree with me, my skin didn't react negatively, so the ingredients seem to be of good quality.
Cons
The only downside is that since it's an ampoule, it may be slightly drying, so you should finish with a cream or oil.
Tip
I just used it regularly, but then I mixed in some vitamin C powder and found that my makeup applied better in the morning.

Pros
I was amazed to feel my skin become incredibly soft just a few days after using it. Although I didn't have high expectations for the exfoliating effects, I experienced a very significant result and didn't need to do any additional peeling during the time I used the ampoule. My skin tone also brightened, and the freckles appeared lighter. It's incredibly moisturizing and absorbs quickly, without any stickiness. While it added an extra step to my skincare routine, it was a wonderful product that was not at all burdensome.
Cons
There's really nothing disappointing about this product. If I had to nitpick, it would be the price and the volume. It would be great if it came in a larger size.
Tip
I used the 99 ampoule from Onnishop layered with this one a lot, and my makeup applied beautifully. In the beginning, I struggled with a cold, so I was blowing my nose frequently, but there was never any issue with the makeup creasing or sliding around on that area, which really surprised me.

Pros
!!Hwahae Trial Reviewer Winner!! This product is truly, truly gentle, everyone!!! Whenever I change my skincare or use a new product, my skin gets irritated, itchy, red, and just goes completely haywire, even breaking out. But this product has none of that! As soon as I apply it, it sinks in so gently and smoothly!! And since it has whitening functionality, my skin definitely gets brighter. I've noticed my skin looking more radiant about 3 days after using it haha
Cons
The only downside is that it's a very runny liquid type, so while it absorbs into the skin right away, that also means it might be a bit weak when it comes to moisturizing the skin!
Tip
If you apply it in multiple layers, you can really feel your skin becoming much more radiant^^

Pros
Here's my review of the Hwahae Trial Reviewer! The product has a thick, gel-like transparent texture. This is my first time using an ampoule, and I'm really pleased that the scent is not too strong and that it absorbs quickly without leaving a sticky residue. It also seems to have decent moisturizing properties. My skin doesn't feel tight, and even though it's been about 2 months since I last exfoliated, using the ampoule has helped gently remove some dead skin, leaving my complexion feeling soft and smooth (though not as much as a dedicated exfoliator). I'm still unsure about the brightening effects.
Cons
The usage instructions don't specify whether it's okay to mix the ampoule with other skincare products, or how much the appropriate amount is to use. I'm not sure if I'm applying it correctly. The price is also a bit of a concern for me..I accidentally spilled and wasted one bottle, so I hope others don't make the same mistake as me.
Tip
I find that using the dropper, I only need about half a pipette's worth each time. Mixing it into my other base products helps distribute it evenly across my face.

Pros
Texture and absorbency: It applies well after cleansing. The transparent, flowing texture absorbs quickly after application. Effects: I usually don't feel the effects of using ampoules, so I didn't even feel the need to use them. But this was the first ampoule I felt actually worked!! Of course, it's natural that blemish traces fade over time, but since my skin recovery is usually slow, blemish traces normally last me over a month. But can you see this? The difference in lighting makes my skin tone look different, but the clear thing is that the blemish traces have faded. (The difference in my lips is because I have severe lip puffiness in the morning and evening ㅠㅜ) And my skin was bumpy, but after using this, my skin became smooth. I'm a bit surprised that the effects showed up this quickly. The lightweight texture means I don't feel any burden when applying it in the morning.
Cons
Hydration: The lightweight texture is very suitable for oily T-zones, but it feels quite lacking in hydration for dry cheek areas. You'll need to apply a hydrating product on top of this. Price: I love this so much that when I went to repurchase after finishing it, I was disappointed to find the price is not cheap. The price is a bit burdensome... I haven't fully used up a bottle yet, so it's hard to judge if this price is reasonable for the effects, but so far, the price is pretty much the only downside.
Tip
I use a toner pack and then apply the ampoule. That makes my complexion look brighter. I lightly apply the ampoule and then a small amount of the AHC eye cream to add more hydration to my skin, which works much better.

Pros
*Hwahae Trial Reviewer Review* I used it morning and night from the basic stage, and used 2 bottles within a week. 1. Even though I have sensitive skin, it did not cause any itchiness or troubles. 2. I generally don't prefer rich formulas, but this water-type formula has no stickiness. 3. The water-type formula is quickly absorbed into the skin, so I could apply about 7 skin layers or 3 ampoules. 4. It's difficult to say this product alone is responsible, but I was told my skin tone looked brighter at the esthetician I visit.
Cons
The point mentioned in 2 may be disappointing for some. Those who were expecting a rich, ampoule-like formula may be disappointed as it has a very skin-like texture. It's difficult to directly drop it on the face using the dropper, so I had to apply it like a skin toner. A single application feels too light, so you have to layer it several times to get the ampoule-like effect.
Tip
It gets absorbed quickly, so I could apply it 7 skin layers or about 3-4 ampoules, which I found to be just right for me.
