It's a set of 5 bottles that can be used for 5 weeks, conveniently packaged so you can take one bottle with you when traveling. I've tried vitamin C powder before, but I had to mix it separately, which I often forgot or skipped when I was short on time. This one is all-in-one, so it's much more convenient to use. Pumping and mixing feels fresh and fun, like doing a little experiment! After shaking it up, the powder mixes in and gives it a slightly yellow tint. The gradient bottle makes the vitamin C powder look like sand and the serum like waves, giving it a beachy vibe. When I first pumped it, the scent was amazing~ It reminds me of a stem cell cosmetic, maybe AAPE? It's hard to describe exactly, but it's like honey with something else added. My mom doesn't like the scent though! And I've never seen a product absorb so quickly! It disappears so fast that you might wonder if you even applied it. As someone with combination dehydrated skin, I love how it's not too oily and absorbs lightly! However, if you have dry skin, you'll definitely need to follow up with a moisturizer.
ConsBut the amount inside the bottle is less than expected. It's only about half full - I wish they had filled it completely! While many companies are becoming more environmentally conscious these days, it's disappointing to see so much waste with the cap and coated paper packaging. The texture is quite runny, which makes it a bit inconvenient to apply as it drips easily. I've been using it for about a week now out of the 5-week supply. My skin tends to be on the darker side, so dark spots aren't very noticeable, but I can see a slight improvement in evening out my skin tone. As for wrinkle improvement, I can't see any visible effects yet. Also, the price of this product is quite high, making it less accessible - you really need to splurge to buy it. Lastly, I was disappointed to see that it contains about three potentially harmful ingredients like fragrance and PEG.

It doesn't feel like it's sitting on top of the skin. - For my oily skin, the hydration level was fine, but my mom with dry skin felt it wasn't quite enough. You'll definitely need to follow up with a cream or emulsion. - It didn't cause any blemishes on my sensitive skin. - While many people don't like the scent, I found it pleasantly subtle. - I love that it comes in a 5-week package with one bottle per week.
Cons- It's disappointing that PEG is high up in the ingredients list. Fragrance is also somewhere in the middle. - I've only used it for 6 days, so I can't speak to its brightening effects yet. I guess that's why it's a 5-week package? - The pump... I don't mind pressing it multiple times, but does it only gush out for me? I have to dispense it onto my palm because it flows out so much. - Honestly, it's quite pricey. With so many good, affordable serums out there these days, I probably wouldn't buy this at this price point.
TipIt's decent for use in the middle of your skincare routine. I think it would be better suited for summer or fall rather than winter use.

I switched from my usual toner (Isoi Rose Toner) to this, as it claims to have brightening and blemish-improving effects (though I hadn't noticed those with my previous toner). First impression: The packaging is clean and simple. However, the serum bottle is smaller than expected... I wondered how I'd use up a whole bottle in a week, but then realized it might not be enough. The container is plastic, which seems travel-friendly. Texture: Very runny. I pumped some onto the back of my hand expecting a thicker serum, but ended up applying it all over my hand. It's like a toner with just a hint of viscosity. Even runnier than the B.plane Ampoule, which is already quite fluid. Scent: Just... average. Not strong. Feeling: Despite having quite a few blemishes and pimples on my skin lately, it didn't sting or hurt. What hurt was watching the expensive product drip away... Effects: Being the first use, no noticeable effects yet. [Photo 1: Acne on cheeks (worse than shown)] Day 2: Stayed in, so I took my time before washing up and applying. Effects: Still can't tell. Skin issues: None. Pimples are ripening nicely. Thoughts: I said the scent wasn't strong yesterday, but I really noticed it this morning. It's not great... Smells like freshly made plastic mixed with a weird, artificial lemon or orange scent. Thankfully, the scent fades quickly. They claim it doesn't oxidize quickly, but as someone with oily-combination skin, I didn't find it particularly moisturizing or long-lasting. Since it's supposed to help with deep hydration, I'll try using it without the ampoule tomorrow. Day 3: Applied three times - morning, afternoon, and before bed - as I went out late for dinner. Effects: Still uncertain. Skin issues: No change from yesterday. Thoughts: I deliberately applied the ampoule later, and my skin felt dry. Of course, it's fine when followed by a moisturizer or emulsion... but it seems insufficient on its own for hydration (even with mist). Day 4: Nothing special. I applied some leftover Dr. Jart+ Cicacream, which still doesn't suit me. Fortunately, it didn't cause any issues the next day (Day 5). Day 5: Changed my mist as it had been open for 12 months (switched to Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Mist). Due to moving on the 17th, I'll likely switch to COSRX blue pads after that. Nothing noteworthy otherwise. Day 6: Now I understand why it's one bottle per week. There's white residue (?) on the bottle's surface and bottom, as shown in the photos. I assume it's the initial powder. Mixing didn't help it dissolve or disappear. [Photos 2, 3: Surface residue (worse than shown)] Day 7: Used up everything I could. Opened a new bottle in the evening, and the texture was definitely more hydrating. It seems to oxidize faster over time. [Photo 4: Acne on cheeks (with redness)] Summary: Unlike the Isoi Blemish Serum, there's no alcohol evaporation feeling, but it absorbs quickly and feels fresh. However, I'm unsure about its effectiveness, and it seems to get thinner over time. It didn't irritate acne or wounds, but it did sting on a paper cut. It didn't sting on popped pimples. Honestly, I can't tell much difference in blemishes or skin tone. [Photos 4, 5: Packaging on delivery day] (I'll add more after using it for another week since I've only used it for one week so far)
ConsIt's extremely runny. When squeezed onto the back of my hand, it drips off, only nourishing my hand. As mentioned above, the scent is really unpleasant when applied while feeling dizzy. Also, it seems overpriced.
TipThe best application method seems to be squeezing it into your palm and immediately pressing it onto your skin.

Usually, dual-functional products (whitening/anti-wrinkle) tend to sit on the skin, but there's zero worry about that here. ⭐️Fresh finish I didn't feel any greasy residue at all, and it leaves the skin feeling soft and firm! While it's fresh, it's not lacking in hydration - it absorbs with a nice balance of moisture and firmness. ⭐️Luxurious packaging Literally, the packaging is so luxurious that I felt good from the moment I started unwrapping it!
Cons🧷Too runny consistency While it absorbs well and isn't greasy, which is great, the constantly dripping consistency was a bit inconvenient!

Cons- It's very watery, so it drips if you pump it directly onto your face Making it thicker would require additives, so maybe it's better to just pump carefully - I feel like it's working for me, so if I had to nitpick, I'd say I wish I could use it longer than a week to properly evaluate - It's about twice the price of my previous vitamin serum For a product that doesn't dramatically change things but needs consistent daily use, I can't help but consider the value for money
Tip• Toner - Intensive Vit C Ampoule Serum - Cream (Cream is definitely needed, this product alone feels too tight as a final step) • It drips if you squeeze it directly onto your fingers I pumped it once directly onto my forehead, spread it quickly, then repeated the process
