From the moment I first used this product, I was blown away by the scent! The fragrance is so lovely - natural and aromatic. I can confidently declare it the best-smelling product I've used in my 2n years of skincare. Another great aspect is how it feels on the skin. It initially applies rich but absorbs well, leaving a fresh finish. As someone with combination dehydrated skin, I highly recommend this. For those looking to switch from heavy creams or emulsions to lighter hydrating gels or moisturizers this summer, this product perfectly delivers that desired balance of hydration and freshness. The gentle ingredients didn't trigger any blemishes either!
ConsThere was some pilling if you apply other creams before it fully absorbs. Make sure to pat it in thoroughly before applying makeup!
TipIt works great as a standalone moisturizer after toner for oily summer skin, replacing your usual cream or emulsion.

However, this time I applied the [Better Me Ampoule Serum] after just two layers of the water essence. I also used face oil around my eyes and U-zone. Usually, after a toner mask, I don't feel much deep dryness. Perhaps because of this, I didn't notice the [Better Me Ampoule Serum] making my skin feel more or less hydrated than usual. It's difficult to gauge the brightening effects after just a week of use, so I'll post an additional review once I've finished the product. Pros: While it feels slightly sticky, it absorbs quickly. After absorption, there's no uncomfortable feeling of hair sticking to your face. Some sticky products can leave a film-like feeling, causing tightness not from oil-moisture imbalance but from the product itself. The [Better Me Ampoule Serum] doesn't have this effect - it just leaves your skin feeling moisturized. It doesn't feel overly rich either. For me, it provided overall hydration without causing any blemishes or irritation.
ConsIt's just an average product. I didn't feel like this was a must-have or that I absolutely needed to use this specific product. While it was gentle and good for me, that's very individual, and nowadays many other products are formulated with gentle ingredients too. Also, because it's sticky, it seems best suited for nighttime use only. I didn't even attempt to use it before makeup in the morning, as I had a feeling it might cause pilling. Just a hunch that makeup would not sit well over it...
