  Pros

  The next day, my skin texture became smoother and my complexion looked brighter.

  Cons

  The oily formula means that if you use it frequently, you may get small pimples.

  Tip

  If you apply a light moisturizing cream and gently pat it in, your skin will be less irritated.

  Pros

  ✔ Affordable price ✔ Whitening An effect that was never seen in cosmetics! The whitening effect that I thought could only be achieved by laser toning appeared even before I finished using the whole bottle ㅎㅎ From the second week, my complexion became slightly brighter, but I didn't use it consistently because it was a hassle, and the effect came back again ㅎㅎ When I started using this cosmetic again, my complexion brightened up quickly.

  Cons

  It might be a drawback that this product is a hassle to manage due to its characteristics But the effect is so good that I plan to keep using it, and I also bought the more popular retinol to compare ㅎㅎㅎ I'll give it a try~~ There are a lot of precautions Sunscreen is a must. Apply only in the evening. Refrigerate. 3-month usage period. If you apply it excessively, you may experience breakouts and skin sensitivity So everyone, please be careful when applying it ㅎㅎ

  Tip

  My skin has become very sensitive and I often get breakouts due to laser treatments I started by applying this product in small amounts, one drop on my forehead and one on my cheeks, after toning, for an adaptation period of about a week, and since there were no adverse reactions, from the second week, I applied it directly to my bare face, one drop on my forehead and one on my cheeks, before toning ㅎㅎ My mom seems to be applying it generously after the adaptation period, and since her skin is resilient, she doesn't seem to have any issues ㅎㅎ

  Pros

  1. I can clearly feel that my complexion becomes brighter when I wake up. 2. I can see that my skin texture has improved. 3. I applied too much, being greedy, and ended up causing skin irritation and breakouts. Contrary to my concerns, I'm generally satisfied with the product.

  Cons

  The smell... this indescribable unpleasant smell... if not for this, it would be an overall satisfactory product.

  Tip

  Mix and apply it in moderation! If you apply too much like I did, you'll end up with breakouts.
