Skin type: Sensitive, dehydrated, extremely oily (worse in fall/winter), acne scars + small bumps, prone to redness when irritated, large pores in T-zone I don't give 5 stars unless it's truly worth my money ❤️ The morning after using this, when I wash my face, my skin feels incredibly soft and supple... It's truly a game-changer. I'm on my fifth bottle of this serum. ❤️ Despite its high concentration, it caused no irritation even on my ultra-sensitive skin!! ❤️ Rather than directly treating acne, it significantly improves skin texture ❤️ It reduces post-acne hyperpigmentation! While it can't erase existing dark spots, any new blemishes that clear up while using this product leave little to no discoloration
Cons🖤 It's so expensive... I can only afford it during sales 🖤 It stings on freshly popped pimples or open wounds 🖤 Pore shrinking? Not sure. But they definitely don't get bigger. It seems to maintain pore size 🖤 Does it brighten skin? Nope. Does it darken skin? Also nope. It just maintains your natural complexion. As someone with a light skin tone, I don't notice any brightening effect. (This isn't necessarily a downside for me, just FYI for Hwahae users)
Tip🍯 Olive Young occasionally offers sets with a mini Paula's Choice BHA Liquid. That's the best time to buy! 🍯 The brand's official smart store and website often have sales too!!! Create an account to stay updated and stock up during discount periods 🍯 Don't toss the bottle when you think it's empty. Remove the stopper with plastic tweezers to use every last drop from the bottom

It's that effective!
ConsEven with my oily skin, I didn't find any major drawbacks. However, it does sting if it comes into contact with any cuts or scrapes.
TipI noticed an even greater synergistic effect when I used this alongside another brand's Vitamin C serum.

Even applying it just once before bed makes a noticeable difference the next day! I occasionally get adult acne, and when I feel my skin getting a bit red, I apply this before sleeping, and it calms down. That's when I use it. The scent is much better than The Ordinary's Niacinamide! At this level, there's no unpleasant smell.
ConsI'm not sure if it's because I only apply it when my skin is red, but those areas feel hot and slightly tingly! If you have thin or super sensitive skin, be careful (I have oily skin).

No blemishes appeared, and I can definitely feel my skin texture improving. I love it so much that I'll keep using it!
ConsIf you have super sensitive skin, you might need to take it slow at first. It tingled a bit when I started using it, so I gradually increased usage from twice a week to three times, then four. Now I don't feel any irritation at all.
TipSince it's said to work better when used with retinol, try applying it together with your retinol product at night!

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.ProsHere's my review after 6 months of use. Those pesky little bumps and inflamed blemishes that popped up after using a harsh shampoo? Completely vanished! My complexion has become clearer, and my skin texture is now silky smooth. I'm nearly on my 7th bottle, and I have to say, the results from using this product have been far more impressive than all the money I've spent on dermatologist visits and aesthetic treatments.
ConsThe scent isn't great, but that's actually a plus - it's fragrance-free, so you're just smelling the raw ingredients. Can't really apply it during the day due to pilling issues. Also, there might be a slight tingling sensation when you first start using it.

The scent is also quite pleasant.
ConsIt can be irritating when used on sensitive skin. There's a tingling sensation, so I mainly apply it to my T-zone.

I started using this product when I noticed vertical pores appearing. While I can't say my pores have visibly shrunk, I definitely feel that my skin texture has improved and looks more refined.
ConsI apply it directly to my forehead and cheeks using the dropper. Some days, I experience a slight tingling sensation. On those occasions, I mix about 3 drops with my moisturizer for a gentler application.

While it's not immediately noticeable after application, it definitely helps makeup adhere better when applied.
ConsThere's occasional slight tingling, and with daily use, it can cause some small bumps to appear.

There's a noticeable difference compared to not using it.
ConsIt doesn't solve deep dryness. There's always a tingling sensation when applying it. Ever since I started using it, I've had constant small blemishes. The situation wasn't too severe, so I just kept using it until it was finished... However, after squeezing the blemishes, it left scars. I won't repurchase because there are many other products that tighten pores without causing blemishes.

When I wake up in the morning, my skin is truly smooth and there's no redness. I didn't use it for a few days, but when I started again, I was shocked at how quickly the effects showed up!
ConsIt's not without irritation. I have sensitive skin prone to blemishes, and when it touches areas that are irritated or have active breakouts, it stings quite a bit.
