It absorbs well and seems to even out my skin tone just right, which I love! I personally don't mind the scent, but it's definitely not a pleasant fragrance. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinDec 10, 2021
It absorbs well and makes the skin surface look hydrated, but I could feel deep dryness underneath... It's not particularly moisturizing, so why does my skin feel oily? The scent... It's not a distinctly identifiable smell, but when I sniff it, I think, 'Ah, is this the smell of inorganic sunscreen?' Yet I'm still using it. It's not a product I find myself reaching for often though. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinDec 1, 2021
I've been wanting to try this product for a while, so I grabbed it when it went on sale. Well... haha! First off, although it's called a serum, it's not that runny! I thought it would have a sun milk texture, but it's more like an emulsion! The brightening effect is definitely noticeable. Since I don't usually wear much makeup, it's perfect to just apply this one product for a light coverage! Of course, the effect fades over time. It's definitely hydrating, so it doesn't leave my skin feeling dry or patchy. Also, it doesn't seem to irritate my skin or cause any breakouts, so it feels like a gentle product. The smell is awful... It's like a mix of old soy milk, vitamin C powder, and ramen seasoning. Despite its many benefits, the scent overpowers everything! This oddly sticky smell... You did test this before releasing it, right? Also, it's oilier than I expected. It has more of a rich feel than a hydrating serum, which is a bit disappointing. - Hwahae UserDry SkinAtopy SkinSensitive SkinOct 17, 2021
I appreciate that the ingredients are gentle and free from harmful substances. It's great to use on its own as a brightening moisturizer when you're feeling lazy or don't want to put on makeup. First off, the scent is quite off-putting and lingers on your face after application. The texture is too runny, and when you spread it, there's a powdery feeling that doesn't make it feel like it absorbs well. Those who dislike a white cast might want to avoid this. Also, after a while, you start to feel some deep dryness. Make sure to shake the product vigorously several times before use. - Hwahae UserDry SkinSensitive SkinSep 8, 2021
It's packed with hydration and has a slight richness to it. My skin didn't experience any blemishes, and it absorbs well. The texture is quite watery, making it a bit tricky to control the amount. I was worried because everyone said the smell was overwhelming, but maybe it's been reformulated? It has a tangy lemon scent mixed with a medicinal smell, but it's not as off-putting as I expected. It's tolerable, and you get used to it pretty quickly. Don't apply it by putting it on your hands first - just apply it directly to your face. Remember to shake well before use. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinAug 31, 2021
I'm using this instead of sunscreen. It absorbs well and has great ingredients. The fragrance is really... I'm not usually sensitive to scents, but this one doesn't seem right. When I apply it and wear a mask, the smell is just overwhelming. Try mixing it with something else. The scent is so strong it makes me dizzy. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinAug 30, 2021
The ingredients are fantastic! There's no pilling when applying makeup, and any white cast transforms into a radiant glow when patted in. Overall, I'm very satisfied using this product! Even for someone like me with super sensitive skin and recurring folliculitis, I can use it without any irritation. However, it might be a bit drying in winter. Many others have mentioned the scent, and I have to agree. The fragrance is really, really awful. I hold my breath every time I apply it. The scent definitely needs improvement. Make sure to shake it well before use! As it can get dry over time, apply a hydrating base layer to keep your skin moisturized. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinAug 27, 2021
As someone with super sensitive skin, I appreciate that this product doesn't contain any harmful ingredients. It's gentle and doesn't cause any blemishes or irritation, which is fantastic for me. As others have mentioned, the smell is quite unpleasant. It's reminiscent of a mix between urine and sour milk, which is bothersome every time I apply it. I wish it were fragrance-free, aligning with the brand's natural image. For me, it feels a bit heavy on the skin, leaving my face feeling slightly suffocated after application. Also, rather than evening skin tone, it leaves a noticeable white cast - more pronounced than other products I've tried. I find it works better when mixed with a hydrating essence, adding more moisture to the skin. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinAug 26, 2021
First off, the ingredients are excellent. It provides a natural brightening effect. However, it doesn't give a glow on combination dehydrated skin. The scent is a major issue. I usually don't mind when reviews mention unpleasant smells, thinking natural scents are better than artificial fragrances. But wow, this is something else. It smells like musty old blankets from a dated guesthouse closet. Absolutely not recommended for those with sensitive noses. Also, despite shaking it vigorously, the formula remains thin and inconvenient to use. And being thin doesn't even make it absorb well. - Hwahae UserDry SkinSensitive SkinAug 11, 2021
The serum-like texture absorbs well. A few gentle pats and it sinks right in. I'm someone who's very meticulous about my skincare routine, and I love that this doesn't pill or slide around even with my thorough regimen. It's great that it stays put even when I put on a mask after application. The scent was an issue at first. Now I've gotten used to it and don't notice any smell, but it took a few weeks to adjust. To me, it smelled like strong soy milk or like crushed pills - a potent, powdery medicinal scent. If you have dry skin, make sure to build a very solid foundation with your skincare routine. When your oil and moisture balance is right and you don't have dead skin cells, this product works like a charm, absorbing well without pilling.
