It gives a noticeable brightening effect.
ConsCons: The packaging is disappointing. It's probably the worst bottle design for an essence. Without a dropper, tapping the bottle wastes product and causes splashing everywhere. There's no dramatic effect on removing blemishes.
TipWhen used with a spot treatment cream, it makes the complexion look brighter.

It arrived in just about a day. When I first opened it, I was amazed by the size of the sample - it's quite generous! After using it for a day or two, I could visibly see my skin becoming brighter. Since it mentioned wrinkle improvement, I applied it to my smile lines before bed, and wow - my skin felt firmer! Looking at it from the outside, it gave a lovely glow. I also loved that it seemed to care for areas with blemishes when applied there! 🔴 Recommended for acne-prone skin 🔴 Recommended for those with many wrinkles 🔴 Recommended for those wanting to brighten their complexion If you fall into these three categories, I highly suggest giving it a try! When I have some extra money, I plan to buy another product from this brand. It was great on neck wrinkles too - no pilling at all! You should definitely give it a go!
ConsThere wasn't really anything I disliked about it. The product is great, and the shipping was fast. Um... it might be a bit sticky, so if you're not a fan of that texture, it might not be for you!
TipKeep it in the fridge or a cool place. Apply it in the evening when you're feeling hot, followed by an emulsion. The next morning, your skin will be transformed to feel as soft as a baby's!

As someone sensitive to fragrances, I appreciated that the scent wasn't overpowering. I used it by dispensing one drop at a time from a dropper bottle. It absorbed well into my skin, and I felt like it helped maintain skin elasticity effectively.
ConsDue to its thick consistency, it's a bit challenging to get the essence out of the bottle. To manage the amount better, I transferred it to a dropper bottle. When using it with a hydrating cream, even three drops didn't cause any tingling. However, with a moisturizing cream, more than two drops led to a slight burning sensation, so I stuck to using just one drop to avoid irritation.

Here's my honest assessment: Age: Just turned 40 Skin concerns: Elasticity, pores, fine lines, uneven skin texture ■ Cools down skin and reduces heat ■ Over time, provides a firming effect without deep dryness ■ Instantly calms redness ■ Immediately improves the appearance of fine lines ■ Absorbs completely within 3 minutes ■ Enhances and maintains hydration ■ No conflicts or blemishes when used with other cosmetics Conclusion: Long-term effects need to be observed with continued use
Cons□ Didn't see the expected effects on pore tightening or lifting around the mouth corners □ The runny texture requires waiting time to dry □ Product tends to splatter when dispensed □ A pump dispenser would be a better packaging option
TipTry using it twice or even three times! I'm sharing some photos. If you experience pilling, skip it and stick to hydrating products that absorb well. I applied it three times, then layered essence, cream, sunscreen, and base before going out. You'll notice the 'forehead glow' in the last photo. It would have been even better if it could tighten the fine lines around the forehead and eyes more effectively. There's room for improvement. As for pores, I can't tell yet. I'll keep using it and write an update if I notice any lifting around the mouth corners!

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsTexture: I used this after applying an exfoliating toner with a pad and letting it absorb. When I applied it to my face, it had a firm, elastic feel, which makes sense as it's focused on pores and skin elasticity. After application, my skin felt really tight and firm! I used it daily for two weeks, and I feel like my pores have slightly tightened. This might vary from person to person though. Consistency: It has a slightly runny texture, kind of like nasal mucus (?) But it doesn't feel heavy at all, and it absorbs well into the skin! Scent: The fragrance is quite neutral - I don't think it would be polarizing.
ConsAfter absorption, my skin felt a bit dry! (For reference, my skin type is extremely dry + super sensitive + prone to atopic dermatitis!) Also, the seal around the cap opening was really hard to remove. Only half of it came off, so I'm using it as is, but I wish it was easier to open completely!
TipFor makeup prep, I lightly layer it twice, then apply an emulsion before putting on makeup. It creates a nice, firm base for makeup to adhere to!

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros✔️ Skin type: Extremely dry + sensitive ✔️ Application: Runny texture ✔️ Absorption: Absorbs well despite runny texture (for extremely dry skin) ✔️ Hydration: Fills skin with elasticity ✅️ I used this product as the first step right after cleansing! The runny texture absorbs well into the skin without feeling heavy, making it perfect for the initial skincare step. You can use this product with peace of mind as it's free from seven ingredients: methylparaben, ethylparaben, propylparaben, isopropylparaben, butylparaben, isobutylparaben, and phenoxyethanol. Perhaps that's why I didn't experience any irritation or blemishes during use! I really appreciated that. Also, with 94% golden silkworm extract, it made my skin look radiant and nourished! My complexion appeared more firm and supple.
ConsGiven my extremely dry skin, I'd recommend using this as an additional first step, but not replacing other steps in your routine. Otherwise, the hydration might be insufficient.
TipTo address any lack of hydration, try soaking a cotton pad with the product and leaving it on like a mask before applying makeup. This method helped my skin look even cleaner and more flawless!

After using it for a week, I noticed my skin felt firmer than usual the next day, and my skin texture became noticeably smoother. It's fragrance-free with a slightly viscous texture that feels rich when applied, but it absorbs well, allowing me to quickly move on to other skincare products!
ConsI think it would have been more convenient to use if it came in a pump bottle. It can be a bit drying when used alone.

However, I did feel a certain plumping effect, as if my skin became more firm and bouncy. The product's texture is liquid but doesn't run, and it feels slightly tacky at first before being completely absorbed. There's almost no residue left on the skin. As for the scent, you won't notice it unless you put your nose right up to it.
ConsThe hydration isn't particularly impressive, so I'd recommend it more for summer use. It's a bit tricky to use on its own.
TipIt might work well when mixed with other products. While it doesn't have any standout features, it's not a bad product either. If you're curious about it, it might be worth giving it a try!

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsAs someone with super sensitive skin, I'm always cautious when choosing cosmetics. No matter how functional a product claims to be, I always check the ingredients first. Even if it's highly recommended, if the ingredients aren't gentle or don't suit me, it's out. This product, however, has ingredients I like, and my skin felt comfortable using it. It's a lightweight essence type that absorbs well without feeling sticky, leaving my skin feeling fresh. I also enjoyed the subtle fragrance. After gently cleansing with toner, I applied this product and used a beauty device instead of my hands to help it absorb. I noticed my skin felt a bit firmer. I finished with my usual moisturizer. I think it would also work well as a first step instead of toner, like using the First Shot Active Essence.
ConsWhile it's not exactly a downside, the fact that it's not a pump dispenser and you have to shake it out might take some getting used to, especially if you're accustomed to the convenience of pumps. On the bright side, you'll probably be able to use every last drop by shaking it out.
TipTry using a beauty device rather than your hands to help the product absorb better.

Cons* It doesn't provide a moisturizing feel, so it's difficult to use alone and needs to be finished with a hydrating product * Occasionally, there's a brief warming sensation after application
