When applied, it makes my skin feel wonderfully moisturized. It seems to absorb well into the skin.
ConsRecommendedTo be honest, I didn't notice any dramatic brightening effect. It just feels hydrating and gives a healthy appearance to the skin.

ConsI don't have any particular complaints. If I had to nitpick, I wish it came in a larger size.
TipRecommendedAfter washing with warm water in the evening, pat on your basic skincare while your skin is still damp, then apply the essence. Excellent!

First Impression & Application: The texture was impressive from the start. Unlike typical vitamin C essences that can feel sticky or oily, this one was completely different. Its thin, fluid consistency absorbs well into the skin, with remarkably fast absorption. After application, there's a slight lifting sensation with minimal tightness, which isn't uncomfortable. Pairing it with a moisturizer works perfectly. Suitable for Morning Use: Some vitamin C products can cause tingling or irritation when applied in the morning, but this one caused no irritation even when used with retinol, possibly because it contains a vitamin C derivative rather than pure vitamin C. This makes it great for worry-free morning use. However, as with all vitamin C products, sunscreen is a must! Changes After 5 Days: Though it was a short period, I definitely felt my skin becoming firmer. My complexion seemed more supple with improved texture. While the brightening effect wasn't dramatically noticeable, there was a subtle glow.
ConsDrawbacks: The main disappointment was that it's difficult to see definitive results with just 5 days of use. Vitamin C products typically require consistent use to show real effects, so the short trial period was a bit limiting. Also, note that there's slight tightness after absorption, so it's best used in conjunction with a moisturizer.
TipRecommendedOverall Assessment: ✔️ Great application & absorption - Light texture for easy use ✔️ Suitable for morning use without irritation - Can be used with retinol ✔️ Slight improvement in skin elasticity - Likely more noticeable with continued use ❌ Short usage period is limiting - Long-term effects are unclear ❌ Slight tightness after absorption - Best used with a moisturizer If you're looking for a vitamin C essence and prefer a light texture, this is recommended! However, consistent use seems essential for best results.

My face is combination, with a dry T-zone but oily cheeks and forehead. This product isn't too sticky when applied, nor does it dry out quickly. It's just right, and I really like it.
ConsUsing it daily means the product runs out quickly, and the price becomes hard to manage.
TipRecommendedWith consistent use, you can definitely see results. It also feels like it's helping with anti-aging.
