Watery texture that becomes plump when applied - Initially, when pumped out, it's less runny than my usual toner but applies lightly, which I like. After fully applying, it feels plump and slightly tacky, which seems perfect for use right now. 2. Fragrance - I'm not a fan of strongly scented cosmetics, and this one has no noticeable scent to me, which I appreciate. 3. No blemishes - I have super sensitive skin that gets itchy, bumpy, and experiences intense burning sensations when products don't suit me. However, this one feels gentle without irritation or blemishes. I've been using it every morning and evening since receiving it! 4. Stays hydrating after application - My combination dehydrated skin gets worse in winter, but this product keeps my skin from drying out even after some time has passed since application.
Cons1. Feeling of sitting on the skin - If there's even a slight buildup of dead skin cells or if the skin isn't properly prepped, you can immediately feel it not absorbing and just sitting on top of the skin. 2. Price - I was excited thinking, 'It's great that it doesn't irritate my skin! I'd repurchase it!' But then I saw the price, and it's more expensive than I expected.
TipProper skin prep is essential before use! After prepping your skin, apply two layers for a hydrated, glowing complexion.

I'm not sure if it's just my imagination, but my complexion seemed brighter! Then, when that time of the month came, I got some blemishes. I'm not sure if it's because this product doesn't suit me, so I'm continuing to use it. My skin isn't extremely sensitive, so I'll need to keep observing. After washing my face, I applied this product first. It takes a bit of time to absorb, so while waiting to apply other creams, I fell asleep. I didn't feel extremely dry. There was a slight feeling of dryness, but it wasn't bad! The pump format makes it easy to use, and although the texture is a bit runny and slightly stretchy, it's not bothersome. The design is simple and elegant.
Cons* The texture is like runny mucus. * It takes some time to absorb. * Opaque container makes it difficult to check how much product is left. * Looking at the regular price, I'm seriously wondering if I can afford to buy it again. Because the texture is somewhat runny, it doesn't absorb immediately and feels like it's sitting on the skin at first. But after patting it in and waiting a bit, it absorbs and feels moisturizing. I wish the container was even slightly transparent...
TipUsing just this serum-type product provides a lot of hydration, so those with oily skin might find it sufficient to layer just this. However, during this changing season, it might be better to apply a cream on top.

As someone with super sensitive skin, it's usually challenging to find cosmetics that don't cause a tingling sensation upon first use. Thankfully, there are more gentle products available these days, which is fantastic. I'm pleased to report that this Diponē serum caused absolutely no irritation. The texture, concentration, and overall feel are quite similar to the Tory* serum I typically use. The scent is nearly fragrance-free, with just a hint of mushroom aroma. This subtle scent, combined with the serum's texture, really emphasizes the mushroom extract as a key ingredient. I appreciate the eco-friendly packaging and container - it puts my mind at ease. The minimalist yet sophisticated design of the product makes me want to fill my vanity with the entire Diponē line! The pump dispenser is also very convenient to use.
ConsWhen first applied, the serum seemed to sit on top of the skin without absorbing, which made me worry it might cause pilling if used before makeup. Fortunately, after gently patting it in several times, it did absorb, leaving the skin feeling hydrated. While I love the minimalist design of the container, it's a bit disappointing that I can't easily check how much product is left.
TipDid you know that simply applying skincare products without proper technique can reduce their absorption? After applying your skincare, take the time to gently pat it into your skin. You'll notice that the serum absorbs as you continue patting. This product would work wonderfully on its own or layered with other products - that's how I've been using it!

The rich, viscous texture of the ampoule forms a protective barrier, making it an excellent choice for maintaining hydration during seasonal changes or dry winter months. Above all, the fact that it's a vegan product is a key point that instills trust in its quality.
ConsThe product doesn't absorb immediately into the skin, leaving a sticky feeling on the surface. It seems more suitable for nighttime use rather than daytime application.

The application is phenomenal - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️! The feeling when you pump and apply it is incredibly pleasant. It has a water-light texture, yet it glides on so smoothly. Absorption is great - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. While it feels as light as water, it has a unique texture that feels slightly viscous and weighty when you spread it. You can feel the firmness in the texture itself, and it seems to absorb instantly. You'll notice your skin feeling plump right after application. Depending on your skin condition, some might feel it sits on top, but for my skin, it absorbs well. The difference between using and not using this product is significant. Hydration is top-notch - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. It doesn't immediately cling to the skin, so patting it in after spreading gives a feeling of building a protective barrier. I received this product when my skin was experiencing blemishes and deep dryness due to temperature fluctuations between day and night during seasonal changes, and it brought my skin condition back to normal. I don't prefer heavy makeup and usually only wear sunscreen, so I prioritize skin condition, texture, glow, and firmness. This product seems to perfectly deliver on all those aspects. As I have super sensitive skin and often get small blemishes when using nourishing or firming creams, I've been sticking to baby lines except for eye creams. Now in my 30s, I felt I should pay attention to anti-aging too, but finding the right product was challenging. This product, despite not being a cream, feels nourishing as well.
ConsThe weight itself isn't heavy, but since it's in an opaque container, it's hard to gauge how much you've used. Depending on skin type, those with oily skin might find it doesn't absorb completely.
TipYou can really experience the product's true value if you use it right after toner. After that, if you layer on your other skincare, you'll wake up with skin that looks like you've had a great night's sleep with a face mask on, even without actually using one. The absorption and texture aren't uncomfortable, so I apply it on my neck too.

Even with my sensitive skin, I didn't experience any blemishes or acne breakouts. Those who are sensitive to fragrances will appreciate that it's unscented. The packaging seems to have been updated, giving it a much younger image compared to the previous version. It's simple, sleek, and beautifully designed without any sharp edges.
ConsMany people, including myself, might question the significant price difference from the previous product. It would be helpful if they included an explanation for this in the product details. When applying the product to my face, it had a slippery texture which wasn't to my liking. This made me feel like it might not absorb well into the skin. After application, there's a slightly sticky residue left on the skin. Fortunately, I could mitigate this by applying cream afterwards. While it claims to provide lifting and pore-tightening effects after just one use, I couldn't really notice these results, though I did feel a slight increase in skin hydration. The effects weren't dramatic, and I'm not sure I would purchase it at this price point. It's a decent product overall. While there are some aspects that could be improved, there's nothing particularly bad about it. It's worth noting that this product might work exceptionally well for certain skin types and individuals!

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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.ProsAs someone with extremely sensitive skin, I've had many products - even those labeled hypoallergenic - cause reactions. So I cautiously patch-tested this on my arm for a day. When that went well, I nervously applied it to my face after cleansing. I was relieved to find no itching or blemishes! That's a testament to how gentle and non-irritating this product is. Given my sensitive and very dry skin, I was pleasantly surprised by how hydrating it is! I didn't expect much moisture from a non-cream product, but it's like a hydration booster. I used to always need my heavy-duty moisturizer, but with this, I feel less dry even without it. While it may not be enough on its own, paired with most creams it seems to fill all my hydration needs. Oh, and it's fragrance-free, which I personally prefer for skincare. No scent-related preferences to worry about! I'm definitely considering purchasing this again!
ConsIf I had to nitpick, there's one aspect that's both a pro and a con. When applied, it feels like it's coating the skin. This makes your skin feel smoother and protected, which is nice. However, if you don't let it absorb properly before applying your next product, it can cause that product to sit on top of the skin for a bit before sinking in. As long as you give it time to absorb well before moving on to your next step, it shouldn't be an issue!
TipYou know those days when you want to give your skin a complete break? Maybe once a week, when you just want to cleanse and not apply anything? In winter, going bare-faced can be too drying, but using a cream feels too heavy. On those days, I think this product alone would be perfect. It maintains adequate hydration, and once absorbed, it feels like you're wearing nothing at all. It's ideal for those 'skin rest days' when you want to keep things minimal but effective.

It doesn't seem likely to spoil, and although it's plastic, it appears to be good at blocking external light. I wanted to try a product with 100% single ingredient. The fact that it passed sensitivity and skin irritation tests gave me confidence. When I tested it on the inside of my arm, it was great to use without causing any blemishes.
ConsThe viscosity is good for use during seasonal changes like now, but it might feel a bit heavy during summer. Even on my combination skin, I need to make sure it absorbs thoroughly.
TipAlthough the instructions said to use this viscous product as the first step in skincare, I felt it absorbed better when applied after toner for better hydration. However, I didn't notice any difference in effectiveness whether used as the first step or not.

It's great for starting your skincare routine, replacing toner, and keeping dry skin much more hydrated than regular water-based toners. Despite its texture, it absorbs quickly, leaving a plump feeling on the face that gives a sense of deep hydration. I'd like to keep using it consistently.
ConsWhen I first applied it, I was slightly disappointed with how it spread. While I liked the viscous texture similar to a toner-essence, it felt like a gel-like formula that might not absorb well. It's fine to apply when your skin is in good condition, but when your skin isn't at its best, it might just sit on the surface.

I'm quite satisfied overall with its impressive hydrating power. Here are the pros I've noticed after using it for a few days: ✓ Ingredients The serum's single-ingredient composition is a major plus. For those of us with super sensitive skin, products with numerous ingredients can be a real struggle. No worries here though! I didn't experience any blemishes while using it, which made it a comfortable choice. ✓ Fragrance-free I prefer products with minimal scent, and this one hits the mark. It's neither artificially fragranced nor overly chemical-smelling - just right. ✓ Hydration This is where it really shines. My skin had been feeling particularly parched due to the cooler weather, but this product addressed that issue perfectly. The texture is like a viscous nasal discharge (in a good way!), but it doesn't feel heavy or suffocating when applied. It absorbs well considering its consistency, leaving a lasting moisture without feeling oily. While I can't speak to its effects on skin elasticity or pore care yet, as I haven't been using it long, I do notice my skin texture feels softer. Given its excellent hydrating properties, I'm hopeful that with continued use, we might see additional benefits.
Cons⚠ Absorption While I mentioned earlier that it absorbs well for its texture... it's not exactly a quick-absorbing product. After application, there's a lingering stickiness, almost like it's sitting on top of the skin. I suspect it might cause pilling if you apply makeup over it. ⚠ Value for money I haven't seen any dramatic effects, which makes the price tag a bit hard to swallow. It doesn't feel like the best value for money. That said, I might consider repurchasing if it goes on sale!
TipThis product works great as a night treatment after cleansing!
