It feels like I've applied an ultra-thin layer of primer. I tried it with a matte foundation, and despite its texture, it really enhanced the matte finish, which I loved. The skin looked so flawless that for the first time in ages, I felt confident wearing base makeup under my mask! When I applied it at night, I could definitely feel it smoothing out my skin texture. The consistency is closer to an oil, but it absorbs completely, giving the impression that the skin is drinking it in. It also provides hydration, making it great for dry skin types. It offers just the right level of moisture to create the perfect canvas for makeup. I got to try this as part of The Hwahae Testers, and I'm absolutely planning to purchase it!
ConsSince it contains Vitamin C, it's essential to patch test if you have sensitive skin! Vitamin C can be naturally irritating and may cause a tingling sensation. Even for the same person, you might experience irritation you didn't notice before if your skin is in poor condition! The fragrance is a subtle pine scent, at least to my nose! It's not overpowering, rather it's quite faint, which I actually liked, but it might be a matter of personal preference.
TipIn your skincare routine before makeup, dispense a full dropper and apply it following your skin's texture. Then, when you apply your base makeup, the silky-smooth feeling on your skin is no joke! It's amazing!

The dropper bottle is hygienic. 2. The fragrance is pleasant (though this could be a drawback for those who dislike scented products). 3. It absorbs incredibly lightly. Particularly suitable for oily skin types. No oiliness at all. Absorbs well and quickly.
Cons1. Immediately after application, I felt a burning and tingling sensation on my face. I thought it might improve, so I continued using it for a few more days, but red blemishes appeared. 2. Not very hydrating for dry skin. Even after applying three layers, there was no rich feeling at all. 3. The texture is too watery and runs off easily. If applied directly to the face, it all drips down to the chin, making it difficult to apply properly. You have to dispense it onto your hands first, but in that case, a regular essence bottle would be better. 4. This might just be the product I received, but there were red stains on the upper part of the dropper. Even though it was a new product, it made me feel uneasy (see the first photo). 5. The price is quite expensive. For me, it wasn't hydrating enough, so I had to apply a separate essence. Overall, it had too many drawbacks, which was disappointing.

First off, I have combination dehydrated skin. Usually, a few hours after applying regular creams or serums, my face feels like it's cracking, yet somehow still exploding with oil... That's the kind of skin I have. Hydration: It's decent. Compared to other serums, I can't say it's significantly better. However, I really loved that it wasn't sticky at all. Absorption: The absorption is incredible. While I haven't tried a ton of serums, I can confidently say this is one of the fastest-absorbing ones. It clings to the skin in less than 20 seconds, with almost no stickiness. Texture: It has a water-like consistency. Personally, that's why I liked it even more. Scent: It has a somewhat fresh scent, which some might find a bit tart. While I'm not particularly sensitive, the scent is strong and could be hit or miss for some people. Makeup: I had to go to school, so I didn't apply foundation or cushion, just regular sunscreen. It adhered well without any stickiness, which was great! Glow: It gives a subtle glow!! My skin has some blemishes, so it might look a bit oily to some, but it definitely adds a nice glow!
ConsThe scent is too strong and could be polarizing! It's quite tart. Unfortunately, it caused some blemishes for me... I already had some acne, but it also felt irritating.
