In summer it's oily, but during seasonal changes and winter, I'm prone to tiny bumps due to dryness. My skin produces excess oil with the slightest bit of greasiness, but cracks immediately without it. While it's a 5-week kit and I wish I had more time to use it before reviewing, I'm pleased that it didn't cause any major blemishes on my super sensitive skin. That alone is a huge plus, given how reactive my skin usually is. For my combination dehydrated skin, it felt comfortably matte in summer, but those with dry skin might find it a bit drying in fall or winter. However, it felt comfortable on my combination dehydrated skin. The tiny bumps seemed to subside quickly. The visible vitamin powder particles were somehow reassuring. It's great that this brightening product can be used during daytime outings too!
ConsThose with dry skin types might feel some dryness, and while it's a brightening product, I didn't notice any significant whitening effect. Other than that, I didn't find any drawbacks.
TipAfter applying this, following up with a hydrating cream or emulsion provided just the right balance.

My skin tends to be quite sensitive, so I usually stick to gentle, moisturizing products as brightening ones can sometimes cause reactions. Surprisingly, this product hasn't triggered any noticeable blemishes or redness yet. (I did get about 3 small pimples, but I don't think they're related to the product.) The packaging is very luxurious, with the vitamin powder and ampoule separated. This gives a placebo effect that it might be more effective than regular brightening products. It also seems more hygienic. Each bottle is meant to last 7 days, but the amount is more generous than expected. Using three pumps total for morning and evening application during the ampoule step left plenty of product. By days 5-7, I could apply it liberally and still have enough.
ConsThe fragrance is quite strong. I usually use products with little to no scent, so this might have felt more intense to me. Personally, it reminded me of my mother's cosmetics - a bit overpowering. While not nauseating, and I got used to it after a week, the artificial scent isn't particularly pleasant. The hydration is disappointingly weak... I switched from my Torriden serum to this for ten days for the Hwahae Testers event. The weather suddenly became drier, which might have amplified the effect, but the moisturizing power feels very inadequate. It seems to absorb quickly at first, but doesn't seem to relieve deep dryness. This might be the biggest drawback. While the main purpose is brightening rather than moisturizing, it's not an inexpensive product. If you have dry skin, I strongly recommend testing it thoroughly before purchasing. Perhaps due to the short usage period, I didn't notice any significant brightening effects. I usually rinse with rice water as the final step of my evening cleanse, and I feel that might actually be more effective.
TipI used it in this order: toner (Docto-x) - serum - moisturizer. For those with dry skin, I highly recommend using a slightly more hydrating and rich moisturizer!

With cosmetics, I often worry about contamination and expiration dates, but this product allows me to mix in the vitamin right when I need it, and each bottle lasts exactly a week. It gave me peace of mind and I loved it! I only used it in the evenings, but the amount was generous enough to apply liberally on both my face and neck. Another great thing was that it wasn't sticky at all. Even after multiple applications, it absorbed well without any stickiness, and I didn't experience any blemishes. As for the brightening effect, which is the most important aspect, it hasn't been dramatic after just a week, but I can see gradual improvements. Overall, my complexion seems to have a brighter appearance.
ConsI'm not sure if it's okay to use during the day, so I've only been applying it in the evenings. It would be helpful if the instructions were more detailed.

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 as one of The Hwahae Testers: 1. It absorbs quickly and feels light without being sticky. When I used vitamin ampoules from other brands, they were so sticky I didn't want to use them often. But this Longi ampoule has a thin consistency that absorbs well, and the finish is so light it's a pleasure to apply! 2. No blemishes! While everyone's skin is different, I personally didn't experience any adverse reactions or breakouts from using this product. 3. If you're someone who enjoys skincare products with pleasant fragrances, I think you'll be satisfied with the scent of this one! 4. The set comes with 5 bottles, and it's recommended to use up each bottle within 7 days. This encourages consistent and generous application.
ConsTo really gauge the effectiveness, I'd need to use all 5 bottles for over a month. Since I've only used one bottle so far, I'm not sure if I can see any significant results yet. Personally, it just feels like a very average product at this point.

First off, I love that the container is divided into weekly portions and comes with vitamin C capsules to mix in. Usually, you have to worry about refrigeration and using it up quickly, but this takes care of that. I have combination and sensitive skin, so my biggest concern when using vitamin C serums is potential irritation. After two weeks of use, I haven't experienced any major blemishes, which is a good sign. The effects were most noticeable at the beginning - my complexion became much clearer and my blemishes, though subtly, seemed to fade. It absorbs exceptionally well. They say one bottle is a week's supply, but even applying it to my neck and using it 2-3 times, it lasts over a week.
ConsPersonally, I'm not a fan of strong scents, so the fragrance was uncomfortable for me. Also, the texture is quite thin, making it inconvenient to dispense and apply with hands.
TipIt works well when used with a hydrating serum during seasonal changes.

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.ProsFirst off, I was delighted by how beautifully packaged it was when I received it. As someone with extremely dry skin, I found the hydration to be quite good, and it didn't feel like it was just sitting on top of my skin. I really appreciated that there was absolutely no sticky feeling - that's usually a deal-breaker for me, but this product was a pleasure to use. My skin is super sensitive, so I'm always very careful about what I put on my face. Despite my caution, I often end up with products that don't work for me. However, this one didn't cause any blemishes at all. Instead, it actually improved my skin texture and left my complexion looking more refined.
ConsWhile I initially thought the pump dispenser was a hygienic plus, I found it frustrating that the product wouldn't come out easily even after multiple pumps. Apart from that issue, everything else was great!

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.ProsWhen I first received this product, I thought there would be just one, but I was surprised to find five individually packaged units. The packaging is quite luxurious. It's my first time using Longi, and the main difference from traditional ampoules is that the powder and liquid are separate. You need to press the pump to mix them before use, which is a novel approach. The pump design ensures cleanliness, and it applies with a nice moisturizing feel. I didn't experience any blemishes, the absorption is good, and it provides decent hydration.
ConsFirst off, the pump isn't particularly user-friendly, and there's a bit of hassle in having to mix the powder and ampoule. Since I haven't used it for long, the brightening effects are minimal, and it doesn't really address deep dryness. Also, the price point is quite high, which makes me hesitant to use it liberally.

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.Pros{ The Hwahae Testers Review } After using this product for about four days, I noticed my cheeks felt incredibly smooth. You see, when I don't get enough sleep, I tend to get these itchy, bumpy things on my face (not acne though!). I've never really had acne issues before, so it's hard for me to say my skin was 'bad'. However, I do have super sensitive skin, so it's not always perfectly clear either. But with this product, I could visibly see the improvement in my cheeks, which really surprised me! I actually wanted to use it a bit longer before posting a review, but there's a deadline. If possible, I'll update with more information after using it for a longer period.
Cons1. The pump is absolutely terrible I just checked the price, and I can't believe how poor the pump is for this cost. At first, I thought it wasn't coming out because it was the initial use, but even after continuous pumping, only a tiny amount comes out. Sometimes it's inconsistent - a little comes out, sometimes the right amount. This really needs to be fixed! 2. I'd say the hydration is zero (I have extremely dry skin - I use thick, balm-like creams even in summer) Right after application, it feels okay, but once it absorbs, it's like there's a film on my skin that makes it feel even tighter. It's not the same tightness you feel after washing your face, but a different kind of tightness that requires me to apply all my usual products on top. 3. Since yesterday, I've noticed something on my forehead. I think it might be acne, and the fact that it's not going away makes me wonder if it's because of this product. Also, just now after washing my face, I noticed those little bumps I get when I don't sleep well. They're tiny inflammations that pop easily if you scratch them lightly with your nail - literally the size of eye boogers. I'll need to use this product a bit longer to determine if it's really the cause.
TipThis product has a very runny, water-like consistency, so rather than dispensing it into your hand, it's better to pump it directly onto your face. It's not a texture you can easily scoop out (especially given the pump issues). Don't let the length of the cons make you think the product is bad. Points 1 and 2 aren't major issues - you can keep pumping to get enough product, and you can supplement the lack of hydration with your existing products. Plus, this is a functional product, so you probably wouldn't buy it for hydration anyway. If point 3 turns out not to be an issue, my overall rating could completely flip (the smoothness of my cheeks was truly impressive). As a side note, I think using 3 pumps each on both cheeks and forehead is about right (though this is personal preference).

The amount is slightly generous for just twice-daily facial application over a week. It was perfect when I included my neck 4-5 times. It ran quickly when pumped onto the back of my hand. For the first 2-3 days, I carefully applied it to prevent dripping. After that, I pumped once on my forehead and once on each cheek, then absorbed it into the skin.
Cons• Hydration: Slightly disappointing The product claims to address deep dryness and provide rich hydration, but I felt a bit of dryness when using only this product after toner. I had to add an ampoule or cream. • Packaging As a first-time user, I struggled with the pump. Even after mixing the capsule and serum, pumping over 20 times yielded no product. Later, tiny amounts came out, insufficient for the whole face. After fumbling through the first use, I pumped vigorously and suddenly the serum gushed out. It worked fine afterwards. • Scent: Citrus aroma The fragrance wasn't strong but subtly present. I enjoy citrus scents, so it wasn't an issue for me. • Ingredients: Slightly disappointing I usually avoid products with 'PEG' ingredients, so this was a bit disappointing. • Price and packaging The price is quite high, making me hesitant about repurchasing after finishing this product. The packaging is beautiful, and the box design is sturdy and convenient for storage, but it seems excessive. I wonder if this contributes to the high price.
TipI used it in this order: Cleansing - Toner (Dokdo) - This product - Ampoule & Cream.
