At first, I couldn't really feel my skin brightening, but I guess it's because I saw it every day (haha). It has become quite a bit whiter!! The scent is a refreshing lemon fragrance, which I liked 👍🏻 Overall, it wasn't bad, so I recommend it!!
ConsThis can vary from person to person, but the aftertaste was fine. In the winter, I had a bit of dryness, so I usually mixed the soothing gel and serum and applied them. But when I applied just the serum once, it felt a bit dry! So I applied the soothing gel on top again, and it became moisturized as usual.
TipApplying the soothing gel and this serum together works even better.

Whitening functional certification, completed skin irritation test product 2. Good cost-effectiveness for a whitening functional product 3. The texture spreads on smoothly and absorbs quickly 4. With whitening products, they can sometimes turn cakey, but after using this for about a week, I haven't experienced that, so it seems to be a low-irritation product~~!
Cons🌈Downsides 1. I've only been using it for about a week, so I'm not sure if the whitening improvement is noticeable, and I haven't really felt any immediate effects. 2. If I use it alone without any other essence, my skin feels very dry...ㅠㅠ No matter how much I layer it, the surface feels plump, but the inner layers still feel tight and pulled... I'll have to finish the whole bottle and leave another review!

ConsHowever, it's too lightweight and doesn't effectively address dryness, so I don't reach for it often. Even when using it before makeup, the makeup doesn't apply well.

ConsHmm, while it did help organize my skin texture, it didn't really do much in terms of calming or addressing any dryness issues.

The freckles and dark spots that I had neglected due to acne have started to really bother me. After watching Depa's video, I immediately purchased the product. 🍔Usage Experience It has a somewhat sticky and dense texture. When I pat it with my hands, it feels slightly tacky and like the skin is sticking to my fingers. Personally, I don't particularly enjoy this feeling. ㅠㅠ But it is fun to play with. ㅎㅎ... Anyway, it has the typical dense and thick texture of a vitamin C product! 🍗Effects 1️⃣ It seems to be effective on recent (important) scars. My relatively recent acne scars have faded a bit! ㅎ But I'm not sure about the older ones. ㅠ 2️⃣ Laser is the answer for freckles. The slight fading I saw was probably just my hopeful expectations. Of course, it's impossible to see significant results in just a month, but I also don't have the confidence to use it for years, so I'll go for laser treatment. ㅜㅜ 3️⃣ It improves skin tone! ㅎ My complexion does seem brighter! ㅎ My dad even asked me recently why my skin has become so clear. ㅎㅎ I really feel like my skin has improved every time I look in the mirror!
Cons1️⃣ The sticky and dense texture ㅜㅜ is quite bothersome... It makes my skin feel stuffy and hot. 2️⃣ Although it's dense, both the inside and outside feel dry. ㅠㅠ So I first have to replenish moisture, then apply this product, and then add a moisturizer again. It feels like I'm overloading my skin. ㅠㅠ 3️⃣ Due to the reasons above, I get a pimple or two whenever I use it consecutively. ㅠㅠ I'm currently applying it every 2-3 days.
TipIt works well on dull areas. Like the elbows, back of the neck, and knees. ㅎㅎ

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsFirst, my skin is sensitive and dry! I've tried many functional products, but they didn't work well for my sensitive skin. Even the similar Goodal Citron Serum didn't suit me. So I was hesitant to try any more whitening products, but then I saw on YouTube that the Nature Republic Blemish Serum is very gentle, so I wanted to give it a try! But I was worried it might not work for me either, until I found the Hwahae Trial Reviewer reviews and was selected to test it. I've been using it for 11 days and here's my review. <Pros> Irritation: Even as someone with extremely sensitive skin, I didn't experience any irritation or breakouts when using it morning and night! 👍🏻 Texture: It has a refreshing texture that absorbs quickly. After applying, my skin feels plump and smooth. Skin Texture Improvement: While my pores or uneven texture didn't dramatically improve, my skin did feel smoother when cleansing or doing skincare. Volume: It's a large-sized product, so those who like it can use it for a long time.
ConsWhitening Effect: Since I've only used it for 11 days, my freckles or blemishes haven't faded yet, and my skin tone hasn't seen a dramatic change. I think I need to use it for longer. Dryness: Vitamin serums can sometimes cause dryness after absorption. This product also felt plump when first applied, but that plumpness didn't seem to effectively address any underlying dryness. Scent: Compared to the Goodal serum, this has a more artificial, tangy scent that I'm not as fond of. But it's not so strong that it prevents me from using the product.
TipSince I have dry skin, I found that using this serum with a toner and then a lotion or cream worked better for me. The dryness was more manageable when I added a propolis serum as an extra step. For those with dry skin, I'd recommend using this with a soothing serum or something to help address dryness.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros👀 Skin type - dry, sensitive 🌹 Texture It is a gel-type formula that has a certain viscosity and does not flow like water. 🌹 Application and feel It is not heavy and absorbs quickly. When applied, it feels a bit sticky, but after absorption, it feels rather drying. When my skin was very dry and flaky, and I used this product, the flaky areas felt irritated. It's best to avoid this product on days when your skin is highly sensitive. 🌹 Fragrance While I prefer fragrance-free, this product has a subtle, refreshing lemon scent typical of vitamin C serums. However, the fragrance is not overpowering or headache-inducing. 🌹 Brightening My skin type is not prone to many breakouts, but it is sensitive to external stimuli and easily becomes reddened. I can't say my skin has noticeably brightened, but during the time I used this product, the redness on my cheeks subsided quickly. Overall, my skin tone feels more radiant rather than significantly brighter. 🌹 Pump dispenser As someone very interested in brightening, I've tried many products, and I find the pump dispenser to be the most hygienic and convenient to use.
Cons🥀 Hydration improvement The event page states that this product improves hydration, but as a dry-skinned person, I didn't really feel it addressing my dehydration issues. In fact, after using this product, my skin felt drier, so I had to quickly apply another moisturizing ampoule. 🥀 Vitamin C oxidation The product I was using previously came in a brown glass bottle that doesn't allow much light penetration, and I was decanting it into a small brown container to prevent oxidation. This product, however, is in a yellow transparent plastic container, so it gets exposed to the fluorescent lights at home. I'm not sure if that's okay or not... If you notice any strange smell or change in the formula while using this, it's best to stop immediately. :<
TipIt's best to avoid using this product on days when your skin is highly sensitive. I'd recommend using it in the evening rather than in the morning. Also, if you notice any changes in the fragrance or formula while using it, it's a good idea to stop using it immediately. :)

It contains fragrance, and the scent is pleasant once applied. This product did not cause any breakouts or irritation, which I really appreciated. I get stressed out if I apply it even slightly wrong and it causes issues.
ConsI have quite dry skin, so most products tend to make my skin feel dry when I apply them. This one is the same - it dries out quickly after application.
TipI apply a moisturizing cream and serum first, and then use this product. I haven't noticed any significant improvements or changes in my skin yet, but it applies nicely overall. I'll provide an additional review after using it for a longer period.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsI used to have a very dark and dull complexion, so I was extremely interested in whitening/brightening skincare products. However, when I looked at the features of whitening/brightening products, it was difficult to see dramatic effects. Most of the whitening/brightening products I came across were either very expensive or didn't even show the slightest effect. But then I discovered this product! To summarize: 1. Radiance - Instead of feeling like my skin is suddenly becoming very white, my skin gradually looks brighter and clearer! If you're as desperate as I was, I highly recommend this. 2. Mild fragrance - Even though I'm not usually sensitive to fragrances, I've never felt that the scent was strange or unpleasant when applying this product. Other products would have an overpowering floral or metallic smell, but this one doesn't have that. 3. Moisturizing - I was drawn to the whitening/brightening benefits, but the moisturizing quality is also not bad. It's just right for everyday use. The texture is not too thick or runny, it's just perfect.
ConsAs for the downsides, here are a few points: 1. Not dramatic - As you may know, it's best not to expect dramatic effects from this or any other functional skincare product. 2. Not recommended for very dry skin - Even though this product is moisturizing, it didn't work well for my very dry skin type. I would apply multiple products before bed, but my face still felt tight. The effects also seemed to be slower for me. 3. Use with caution for sensitive skin - Since my skin tends to become sensitive when it's dry, this product felt a bit irritating and itchy when I used it during those times. The discomfort didn't go away quickly either. However, on other days it was fine. So I'd recommend considering your skin type carefully before using this product.
TipSince my face is very dry, I tried this method: After cleansing my face thoroughly, I would use a toner or exfoliator, then apply this product. After that, I would use a device like a water filler to help the product absorb fully. Once it dried, I would add extra moisturizer. Doing these steps together seemed to work better for me than just using the product alone. It's a bit of a hassle, but my skin was so dull that I wanted to do whatever it took. I hope you all can achieve that glowing, healthy skin too!
