My winter/spring products felt a bit heavy, so I wanted to try a lightweight serum with good hydration. Luckily, I got selected for The Hwahae Testers to try this product! I've been using it for about 5 days. My skin type: As mentioned, I have combination dehydrated skin that gets extremely oily in summer. I'm also acne-prone with super sensitive skin. So I'm very careful about which cosmetics I use. Texture/Application/Hydration: The texture is perfect for summer - a light emulsion-like consistency. Despite being called a serum, it's white and slightly runny, so it doesn't feel heavy at all. It applies smoothly without feeling sticky or suffocating. It absorbs quickly, so there's no pilling when I apply foundation. Despite its fluid texture, it's still hydrating. I found I could skip my emulsion and just use toner and this serum (speaking as someone with very oily skin). It seems ideal for summer! If you're not sensitive, this could be great for oily skin types looking for a hydrating yet lightweight product. After using this, I noticed a significant reduction in oiliness. Usually, even with just toner-serum-light emulsion, I'd wake up super greasy. But after using this, my skin was much less oily. Even after applying makeup, it didn't get greasier. If only the ingredients were better, I would have made this my holy grail! Sebum control: I was really impressed by how noticeably it reduced my sebum and oiliness! Quantity: It seems quite generous for a serum. Compared to other ampoules that run out quickly, this one should last longer. Dispenser: The pump works well, dispensing just the right amount without waste. Conclusion: While the presence of potential irritants is disappointing for sensitive skin, it worked well for controlling sebum and balancing oil and moisture. However, it's not quite my holy grail product.
ConsThe fragrance is quite divisive, and the product contains some potential allergens, albeit in small amounts. Those with sensitive skin should consider this carefully before purchasing. While I didn't experience any blemishes, I did feel some itchiness, so I won't be repurchasing.
TipI've been using it morning and night in this routine: toner - Mikaol serum - emulsion. For those with oily skin who aren't sensitive, you might be able to use just this serum instead of an emulsion in the height of summer.
