However, unlike some other users, I didn't notice any significant results.
ConsThe scent is not to my liking. When I apply it after cleansing, it reminds me of spoiled grapes... It's just not my style. Plus, it's quite expensive!

The oil and moisture balance is just right, so you can effectively care for your skin with just a small amount. I used to struggle with deep dryness, but I didn't experience any of that while using this product.
ConsI think it's quite expensive for the amount you get, and above all, I really dislike its distinctive scent. It's hard to describe, but there's this strange, musty smell... It's an odd situation where I'm put off by the fragrance. The product itself is good, but I just can't get past the scent.

Even the gentlest whitening products make my skin turn red, itch, and have other unpleasant reactions, but this product doesn't cause any of that.
ConsThe smell is really unpleasant. After applying this, over time the stale sweat-like odor starts to rise up, making me feel stuffy.
TipFor those with truly sensitive skin or who tend to say 'my skin is sensitive, it has to be sensitive', try mixing in a couple drops of this lotion into the one you normally use.

It doesn't immediately sink into the skin, but it absorbs quickly, so the application feels nice. When applied to the face, it doesn't drip down, allowing you to spread it evenly and let it absorb well. Moisturizing power: I have an oily skin type, but even when I apply it at night, my skin doesn't feel tight the next morning. In fact, my skin feels plump and bouncy the next day. Brightening: I have a somewhat dull complexion, but after using this, I noticed my face looked brighter the very next morning. The brightening effect was noticeable from the first and second day of use.
ConsFragrance: There were no breakouts. It's currently summer and rainy season, and since I have an oily skin type, it feels slightly stuffy, but it's still comfortable. However, the fragrance! I don't like products with artificial fragrances. This has a slightly artificial scent, which I disliked from the start. I like products with natural, subtle fragrances, but this one has a somewhat headache-inducing scent. I'm not sure if I'll get used to the fragrance, but I'll continue using it to compare before and after. Price: 30ml for 89,000 won, hmm... If I really think the product is effective for my skin, I might purchase it, but there are so many great domestic skincare products these days... I'll use it for a few months and if I like it, I'll consider buying it again.
TipSince I have an oily skin type, I feel it's a bit heavy, especially during the rainy season like now. I try to use lightweight products, such as a light serum, lotion, or gel.

To be honest, I've only heard of the Caudalie brand name before, but I've never actually used their products. They're not a derma brand like Avène or Bioderma, but they're also not a major department store import brand like Lancôme or L'Occitane - they occupy a somewhat ambiguous position, so I didn't really think about trying them out. I just knew they were famous for their mists. To be frank, I just found out about the price range, and it's more expensive than I expected!! So I probably wouldn't have bought and tried this product on my own. But now that I have this opportunity to try it out by chance... it's different somehow. I didn't have high expectations for this 'whitening ampoule' or anything. Even after using the famous Arbutin whitening ampoule, I didn't really feel much of an effect, but this one... it just seems to suit my skin. I'm starting to understand why people use whitening ampoules. First of all, it doesn't make my skin unnaturally white. I don't have much experience with other products to compare, but I'd say my skin looks brighter, more luminous. It's like my complexion used to be a light coffee color, and now it's been diluted with a bit of milk, if that makes sense. I've only been using it for about a week, but at this rate, I think I'll end up buying this with my own money! The price is a bit high, but around this time of year, this seems like a great product for managing freckles and complexion.
ConsThe main drawbacks I can point out are the scent and the price. Scent is subjective, but to me, it has a strange, masculine skin-care type of fragrance that I'm not a big fan of. It reminds me a bit of Biotherm's moisturizer scent... just that strong, heavy fragrance typical of imported cosmetics that doesn't really suit my preferences. And the price... it's not exactly what I'd call affordable. The product comes in a glass bottle with a dropper, which is a bit inconvenient. The glass makes it unnecessarily heavy, and the dropper doesn't dispense the product very smoothly. I think it would be great if they could put some more thought into the packaging redesign.
TipAs a tip, I like to apply a generous amount of my favorite serum or ampoule once a week, and then follow it up with a modeling pack. It really helps the product absorb well and gives a nice, nourishing feel. I'd definitely recommend trying that out!

Although I haven't noticed major effects yet since I've only been using it for a short time, I'll continue using it consistently. ⚡Whitening It contains grape vine shoot extract, which is said to be more effective in brightening than vitamin C. It's supposed to help even out the overall skin tone. I think with continued use, it will help create a clearer complexion. ⚡Texture The color is milky, not too thick or watery like a serum. It's of a nice, medium consistency that applies smoothly and comfortably. There's a slight tacky feeling right after application, but it dries down to a supple finish. I've been using it in the summer and it doesn't feel heavy or overbearing.
Cons🔥Fragrance I prefer fragrance-free cosmetics, so the added fragrance is a bit disappointing. It has a strong, feminine perfume-like scent. The smell, while pleasant, is quite potent and lingers for a long time. 🔥Citric Acid I generally avoid products with citric acid, as it can be irritating for sensitive skin. But since the Caudalie serum is so well-known, I decided to try it out. Luckily, the citric acid content doesn't seem to be too high, and I haven't experienced any irritation so far.
Tip🌈Be sure to apply an extra layer on areas with freckles or acne scars.

I really liked the fact that the duo sets were heavily discounted, making it a great deal. I had forgotten about this product for a while, but then I won a trial review on Hwahae, so I decided to use it again. This product is known to be helpful in reducing dark spots, as it is a cosmetic with skin-lightening functional certification. It seems like a great product to use in the summer. The thin, smooth texture glides on easily. After using the toner, I just need to squeeze out a bit of the serum and gently pat it all over my face. This leaves my skin looking radiant and intensely hydrated. During humid seasons like now when excess sebum is a concern, I find it best to use lightweight skincare products. So I just use this serum along with a facial mist for my daytime routine. I have sensitive skin that tends to break out easily when using incompatible products, but I was able to use this serum without any trouble or irritation. While I'm used to fragrance-free products, the initial scent of this serum was quite strong for me. And when I was patting it in, there was a slightly fermented smell as well. But by the third use, I got accustomed to the fragrance. My skin is thin and translucent, so blemishes and imperfections show up easily. But according to the clinical testing results, using this Vinoperfect Radiance Serum can reduce dark spots by 63% after just one bottle. So I'm hopeful about the effects. I'm satisfied with the product, but the price point is a bit of a burden. That's why I used to stock up on it during duty-free sales in the past, and I think that's a good strategy going forward as well.
ConsThe initial scent was quite strong for me. And when I was patting it in, there was a slightly fermented smell as well.

This alone would be sufficient for the summer with its complex ingredients! The brightening effect is quite noticeable right after application, but it doesn't last long. Applying it consistently would be a good idea.
ConsThe scent is... a bit strange. At first, it's a mix of wild flower and mugwort, then suddenly the lingering aroma smells like human saliva.ㅠㅠ Having a saliva-like scent on my face is really unpleasant. I can only use it when I'm not meeting my boyfriend (...ㅠㅠㅠㅋㅋ큐ㅠㅠ) To be honest, the scent is so powerfully and exceptionally weird that it's worth taking off two stars, but the product itself is not bad.

It has good spreadability and absorbs quickly, leaving behind a slightly moisturizing film that gets absorbed gradually. It feels lightweight rather than heavy when applied, so it's great to use in the summer!😄
ConsTo be honest, the scent is really unpleasant ㅜㅜ It has a kind of woody, musty smell that is just too strong. And even though it's a whitening product, 30ml for this price seems way too expensive to me ㅠ

Even though I haven't used it for a long time, I've already seen results. I plan to purchase it again and use it consistently. As someone with oily, troubled skin, I find that serums can easily cause breakouts if not used properly. However, this product hasn't caused any new blemishes so far. It also seems to have a calming effect on my skin after I've popped pimples, reducing the redness. The dark spot reduction hasn't been very noticeable yet, especially on my freckles, but my overall skin tone does appear brighter. I think with continued use, the effects will become more apparent. I'd recommend this to anyone with a similar skin type as mine. Out of all the serums I've tried so far, this is the best one. My skin looks clearer and the overall tone has improved! The serum doesn't absorb immediately after application. You need to massage it in and gently pat it to help it sink in. But once it's absorbed, it doesn't leave a greasy or oily residue.
ConsThe fragrance of this product is quite unpleasant. It has a fruity stem-like scent at first, but over time, it develops into a rather pungent odor. Using a cream with a fragrance after this serum helps to mask the unpleasant smell a bit.
