The main thing I noticed when I first received this product was the balance between whitening and moisture. Some whitening products tend to have a drying effect, so I paid attention to that aspect. The texture is more like a dry oil than a typical essence-type oil. At first, it felt a bit greasy, but it absorbed quickly within seconds, definitely giving a dry oil feel. After it absorbs, my skin feels a bit smoother, but it's not an incredibly dramatic effect. Those products that claim amazing results usually have a lot of chemical ingredients, so this level of dry oil feel is good enough for me. As for the whitening, I'll write a more detailed review towards the end, but so far I haven't noticed any visible effects yet. However, my skin tone does seem more evenly distributed, rather than looking overly bright white, and I like that. In the evenings, I apply this product in multiple layers, as a single layer feels too light, but applying it in 2-3 layers with some time in between gives a nice moisturizing effect. The fragrance is something that might be divisive - it has a very distinct passionfruit scent. I used to live in the tropics and this reminds me of when I would juice passionfruit and the seeds would crunch in my mouth, so I really believe this is the authentic scent. I'm quite convinced this is the real deal because of that. So I'm able to apply this right after cleansing in the evenings without any other products, and I'm definitely planning to repurchase this before spring comes.
ConsThe only potential downside is that the fragrance might be divisive - I personally love the authentic passionfruit scent, but it may not be everyone's cup of tea. And while it's not a thick, gloopy oil, it does have a slightly runny consistency, but that's not a major issue.
TipI apply this just in the evenings, a few layers 3-4 times, and I really enjoy it. After it absorbs, my skin feels nicely moisturized.
