The vitamin C component seems to be keeping my skin healthy.
ConsWhen I first started using it, it stung a little, but I didn't have any skin issues. As I continued using it, it became fine.

Oil content - As it is an eye serum, it is quite oily. So I also applied it around the lip area with fine wrinkles. Spreadability - It spreads very smoothly and moisturizes wonderfully. When I wake up in the morning, I can clearly see my eye area brightening up. I love it so much!!! It must be the vitamin C. Brightening Cost-effectiveness - The price-to-volume ratio is quite disappointing. Everything else is great, but this is a letdown. It makes me hesitate to repurchase. That's why I deducted one star.
ConsIt has a heating sensation, so it feels hot and stingy when applied. Those with sensitive skin should take note.

ConsEven after a long time, the cream still leaves residue on the eyelashes. Using eye drops or tearing up causes intense stinging. As a result, I can't apply it in the morning and have to be very careful when using it at night. I'm not sure about the ingredients, but it was just too irritating.
TipThis cream is great for massaging around the eyes.

To get straight to the point, there are no dramatic effects. Well, that's the case with most skincare products, isn't it? It might help prevent some wrinkles from forming, as a preventative measure. As for the usage experience, there's an immediate warm, cozy feeling when you apply it. So I wondered if it would be okay to apply around the eyes, but I didn't feel any irritation. My eyes didn't sting at all. And it's not like there's an overwhelming sense of moisture, but there's a kind of thin film that forms on the skin, almost like silicone. It's not a transparent, moisturizing film, though. I've been using it for just over a week now, and haven't experienced any side effects. As for the effects, I'm not too sure yet. I haven't really noticed any particularly great effects from eye creams in the past. Some have even stung my eyes, but this one seems to be gentle on the eyes, which is good.
ConsI had great results with the Kiehl's Vitamin Essence in the past, so I had high expectations for this one as well. The Vitamin Essence had a stinging, warming sensation when applied, but my skin looked amazing the next day. So I was hoping for something similar, but... I guess my expectations were too high. Using it only around the eyes, how dramatic of an effect could I expect? Also, I think this might be difficult for those with sensitive skin to use. Even though I have a relatively thick skin type, I can still feel the warming sensation when I apply this.

Although I know this, I haven't been proactive about it, and recently the issue has become pressing, so I've started paying more attention to it. I received the new Vitamin C eye serum as a 'Hwahae Trial Reviewer' winner and have been using it. Usage period: July 28 - August 6, total of 10 days. Usage time: morning before makeup, night before bed (twice a day). ♡Texture and usage experience♡ I thought the eye serum would be a bit more watery, but when I pumped it onto the back of my hand, it felt like an eye cream. It's quite dense and bouncy, and the texture is soft, making it easy to apply. There's a slight oily feeling when applied, but it's not sticky at all. In fact, it doesn't feel drying at all, which I like. When I pat it around my eyes, I can feel a slight warming sensation, which makes it feel like a massage. The warmth goes away after absorption. The scent is not overpowering, but if you smell it up close, you can detect a refreshing citrus note, which is not unpleasant. ♤Packaging♤ The pump packaging is hygienic and allows me to dispense the right amount directly onto the eye area, which is convenient. ☆Effectiveness☆ After 10 days of use, I can say this: Normally, I'd think you need at least a month to see results, but compared to the eye creams and serums I've used before, this one seems to be performing quite well even after 10 days. Definitely, there's a tightening sensation around the eyes after application, which is different from just a pulling feeling. Even when I apply makeup in the morning, it doesn't slip or move around. And after about a week of consistent twice-daily use, I've noticed my prominent eye wrinkles have lightened up a bit. I think with continued use, the effects will become more noticeable.
ConsHmm... Even though the ophthalmologist said there is no irritation, I do feel a very slight stinging sensation around my eyes after some time has passed since applying the product. Am I the only one experiencing this? 😢 The irritation is not strong, just a mild, barely noticeable sensation.
TipThe instructions say to use this before applying essence, but because I feel that slight stinging sensation, I apply the essence first and then use this product. If you also experience that stinging feeling, I'd recommend applying more layers of the product.

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.ProsThis is a Hwahae Trial Reviewer review. I applied for this product because it was from Kiehl's, so I had a certain level of trust. Luckily, I was selected and got to try it out. The texture has a thick, creamy feel. It doesn't sink in smoothly like a light cream, but rather feels like I'm applying a thick, rich cream around my eyes. However, it still feels moisturizing and doesn't leave my undereye area feeling dry. Compared to the Eucerin and AHC eye creams I've used before, this one has the most substantial texture. I was worried that since it's so thick, it might cause milia around my eyes, but that didn't happen at all. It's advertised to be good for dark circles due to the vitamin ingredients, but I'm not sure about the effectiveness of that yet. I'll have to use up the whole jar to see the results. Overall, as long as it doesn't cause any issues around my eyes, I'm satisfied with this eye cream. It keeps my eye area moisturized even the next morning.
ConsThe vitamin ingredients might be the reason, but the area around my eyes feels a bit stinging when I apply it. That's why I only apply it to the undereye area, and it's fine that way. The eye area is a delicate part of the skin, so I think that's why it reacts that way. Also, when I do my eye makeup, even after using the Innisfree No-Sebum powder and applying eyeshadow, the eye cream causes the eyeshadow to clump up. Ultimately, the stinging sensation and the effect on my eye makeup make me think I shouldn't be applying it around the eye area. The outer corner of my eyes also feels irritated when I apply it there. And I think the original price of around 70,000 won is quite expensive.
TipSince it's so thick, I have to apply it with a bit of pressure. I found that applying it after my skin toner, when there's still some moisture left on my face, helps it spread more easily and smoothly.
