Texture: The thin serum with vitamin capsules made it easy to massage into the skin. Value for money: With 100ml of serum for under 15,000 won, I can use it generously. Effectiveness: I noticed a real improvement in skin clarity, and areas with hyperpigmentation from scars have reduced. At night, I applied it three times without toner. For a vitamin serum, it wasn't overly sticky. While it left a slight film-like feeling, it absorbed quickly without feeling heavy. Texture: The capsules were quite large, and it felt a bit oily, which was slightly uncomfortable. Hydration: If I had to pick a flaw, it's not really meant to be a hydrating product. As mentioned in the pros, it doesn't seem to clog pores, and I didn't experience any blemishes. I wish there was a version with pre-ground capsules. This is an affordable serum with excellent results, perfect for generous nighttime application. I've already purchased two other serums from this line and plan to buy two more in the future. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinMay 31, 2020
It was really moisturizing and had a nice, rich texture that worked well for winter use. I didn't notice any brightening effect whatsoever, and when I used it while my skin was sensitive, I developed a rash. Also, it's quite rich, so those with oily skin might find it too heavy. - Hwahae UserDry SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinApr 10, 2018
*** This review is based on my participation in The Hwahae Testers program. *** My skin is dry and sensitive, with a thin texture that's prone to redness when using harsh products. I rarely get blemishes! After using this product, I've noticed three main benefits: 1. Instant Complexion Improvement Right after cleansing and applying this serum, I notice an immediate brightening effect on my skin tone. This glow persists even after completing my skincare routine. While the instant effect doesn't last all day, I believe consistent use could lead to overall brightening results! I've only been using it for two weeks, so I haven't experienced long-term brightening effects yet. I'll update my review after more extended use! 2. Rich, Intense Hydration This is a major selling point for those with dry skin like mine!! I typically do a 7-skin method, then apply serum before finishing my routine. Compared to other serums, the *VC Shot Serum* has a richer, more substantial texture. It completely eliminates deep dryness, and on busy mornings when I only have time for a 3-skin method plus this serum, my skin stays hydrated all day! Even when facing cold winds outside, which used to dry out my skin quickly despite a thorough skincare routine, this serum creates a protective layer that keeps my skin from drying out! I absolutely recommend this for those with dry skin!! 3. Gentle Vitamin C Formula Typically, vitamin C serums feel a bit tingling and irritating on my thin skin, so I've avoided them. With this product, I experienced slight tingling for the first 3-4 days and considered stopping use, but it quickly subsided. Now I'm using it comfortably without any irritation! 1. Potentially Too Rich for Oily Skin While it's perfectly hydrating and rich for my dry skin inside and out, I think it might be too heavy for those with oily skin. It really does feel like it creates a layer on the skin, which could feel uncomfortable or overwhelming for oily skin types. I highly recommend it for dry skin, but if you have oily skin, I suggest testing it first or using a very small amount. 2. Not Entirely 'Clean' Ingredients Fragrance... The lemon scent is lovely, but I wonder if it was necessary to add so much fragrance. When buying skincare, I prioritize 'hydration' and 'clean ingredients'. The *VC Shot Serum* contains three out of '20 caution ingredients', which worried me at first. Fortunately, it didn't cause irritation or redness on my sensitive skin! And I forgave the ingredients because of its amazing hydrating power! 3. Steep Price Tag This is what makes me hesitate about repurchasing... While I'm considering repurchasing due to its benefits, let's keep an eye out for sales! 1. Great for Use with Modeling Masks I love using modeling masks frequently, and adding this serum to the mix is fantastic!! It definitely enhances the brightening effect and prolongs the hydration after masking. 2. Neck Wrinkle Prevention I'm also using it on my neck to prevent wrinkles, as vitamin C serums are known to be effective for this area. - Hwahae UserDry SkinSensitive SkinApr 6, 2018
I never thought I'd see whitening effects from cosmetics without getting a professional treatment, but this product brightened my complexion from day one! I have yellow-toned 21 shade skin that sometimes looks dull, and I used to never go out bare-faced. But after using this, my complexion is unbelievably brighter, and I'm no longer self-conscious about going out without makeup. My only worry is that my skin might go back to how it was once I finish the product... that's my concern. The price!!!! I was truly shocked when I saw it (luckily I won it for free in a Hwahae event...). Based on its effectiveness, I'd definitely want to repurchase, but the price is way too burdensome, so I probably won't be able to. Also, I have dry skin and do a thorough skincare routine, so I like rich products like this. But for those who don't have dry skin, it might feel too sticky and heavy! I recommend it for those with dry skin!
