When my skin's not in good condition, I get eczema on my cheeks and around my eyes, redness on my cheeks, and some small bumps on my forehead. The product comes in a 50g size. Rating is out of 5 stars. Application: ★★★★★ It spreads smoothly and evenly when applied. It's easy to apply, but the feeling is a bit unique - it's like there's a film on your skin. After a while, it absorbs completely. Absorption: ★★★ The texture is slightly thick liquid but slippery, so it doesn't absorb super quickly. I usually apply toner-serum-hydrating cream-cream-barrier cream, but if I apply the hydrating cream right after the serum, they mix and the absorption decreases. You must let each layer absorb fully before moving to the next step. Scent: ★★★★★ It didn't bother me and had an interesting scent that was quite pleasant. I personally don't like products with strong fragrances, but this one smells like new clothes in a clothing store. Oiliness: ★★★★ Compared to what I used before, which was very hydrating with almost no oil, this one has a bit more oil content. There's hardly any oiliness when first applied, but when I wake up in the morning, there's a slight oily feeling. Because of this, I didn't feel like my skin lacked moisture in the morning. Complexion improvement: ★★★★★ My complexion tends to be dull. I've tried other brightening products before but didn't notice much difference. I thought they just didn't work for my skin, but after using this, I finally understand what a brightening effect is! Rather than a whitening effect, my face looks clearer! My complexion has brightened, giving me a more lively look. This product really worked for me!
ConsMoisturizing (Hydration): ★★ As I have dry skin, I prioritize hydration, and this aspect was really disappointing. When applied, the moisturizing power was ambiguous - neither here nor there - and I didn't feel like my skin was being deeply hydrated. When I use cosmetics that don't suit me, I get blemishes on my chin, and I got quite a few after using this product. (I usually get blemishes when using products with high oil content compared to hydration.)
TipMake sure to let the serum absorb completely before moving on to the next step in your skincare routine.

Skin type: I thought I had dry skin, but it seems I have combination dehydrated skin! (It's not severe, but recently my skin barrier has been compromised due to excessive oil cleansing and hormonal issues, resulting in more blemishes 😔) Texture: It's not quite as thin as water, but it's a very fluid consistency. Personally, I prefer lighter textures, so I found it absorbs well. Scent: If you smell the ampoule directly, there's a slight fragrance, but it's so subtle that you can't detect it when applying to the skin. Absorption: After applying and gently patting it in, it absorbs immediately, so the absorption rate is quite good. Stickiness: I really dislike products that feel sticky on the skin, but this one wasn't sticky at all! Oiliness: Sometimes if I apply products incorrectly, my skin can look greasy in the morning, but with this, my skin didn't feel heavy when I woke up. It's also suitable to use before makeup.
ConsHydration: It seems a bit lacking if your goal is to deeply hydrate. When my skin lacks moisture or becomes too oily, I tend to break out easily. If I didn't apply an appropriate moisturizer after this, I noticed some blemishes appearing.
TipI'm not sure if it truly deserves five stars since I haven't tried many skincare products, but I couldn't find any reason to deduct points, so I gave it five stars. The ampoule didn't cause any additional blemishes, and it absorbs well with a nice texture, making it a good lightweight ampoule to try! It's also suitable for combination dehydrated skin! + When using this ampoule, I typically used: 1. COSRX BHA Toner + Witch Factory Toner and Emulsion 2. COSRX Toner Pads + Jamyeongdang Moisturizer (I used this because I had it, but I don't recommend it due to its stickiness 😔) I used it more for refining skin texture, soothing, and light hydration rather than deep moisturizing. It claims to have brightening effects, and while it might be my imagination, I feel like my skin looks a bit brighter? I'll need to use it longer to be sure about this point. I've attached before and after photos of my skin. Overall, my skin looks more soothed, but I can't attribute this solely to the ampoule as I also changed my skincare routine a bit and used scar gel (Noscarna). I hope this review helps you decide whether to purchase it!
