It absorbs quickly, which is great. Its ability to make your skin feel firm and supple makes it perfect for those with dry skin! It's an excellent choice for the first step of your evening skincare routine (when you're not using or don't have a toner).
ConsSince I enjoy applying products generously, I've noticed some pilling on days when I layer multiple products.
TipFor those who love to layer their skincare products, be mindful of potential pilling when using this in combination with other items. You might want to adjust the amount you use or wait a bit longer between applications to ensure optimal absorption.

I apply it in the order of toner, this serum, then cream before makeup. With other serums, my cheeks would feel dry in the evening, but with this one, the hydration stays locked in even after applying makeup. The best part is that it doesn't cause any blemishes on my face.
ConsPersonally, I prefer serums with dropper bottles. Since this has a runny consistency, it doesn't pair well with this type of container. It's hard to dispense the desired amount, and it often comes out in a big glob, making it difficult to apply evenly on the face and causing waste. If there's a chance for a redesign in the future, Real Barrier team, please consider switching to a dropper format.
TipIt's better to apply multiple thin layers rather than one thick layer for optimal results.

The hydration is off the charts, it absorbs well, and the next day my skin feels silky smooth. When my skin is feeling parched or lacking moisture, I slather this on generously for a couple of days, thinking of it as a hydration soak. It really perks up my skin's condition!
ConsThe price point is a bit high, so it's best to stock up during sales. Also, I wish they offered larger sizes.
TipIf you layer it three times, your skin becomes super hydrated with an amazing Inner Glow.

ConsVolume - Similar price range products like I.L.J. come in 100ml, and for a slightly cheaper option, there's T.N.M.L. Wonder. There are many other alternatives too. It's worth trying once, but for long-term use... It's best to try various similar products and consider your options

Many products with hyaluronic acid-like ingredients tend to leave a sticky residue after absorption, but this one doesn't feel heavy at all. It works well under makeup and absorbs beautifully even when layered multiple times, which is rare. It's truly a holy grail! While it's quite pricey at full cost, I stock up during the 1+1 sales at Olive Young.
ConsThe only downside is that the pump on the glass bottle can be a bit stiff, occasionally causing the serum to squirt in unexpected directions, which can be inconvenient.
