While it seemed a bit watery, it absorbed into my skin better than expected, leaving it supple and moisturized. It's not super concentrated, but it applies smoothly and absorbs well without feeling heavy. My skin stays hydrated for a long time, even without using a lot of other products. I'll definitely repurchase when I run out.
ConsThere's nothing disappointing at all! Since it's not in a dropper format, I can just dispense it directly onto my skin, which is much more convenient and better.

Thanks to the opening promotion discount, I was able to purchase it. It absorbs lightly and doesn't feel sticky, so it seems fine to apply multiple layers.
ConsThe downside is that it feels a bit pricey to buy at full price. It's a good product, but please offer deals more often as I feel like I'll use it up quickly.

That's why it feels like it cools and calms you down. The scent is also not too strong, just a pleasant feeling. ✔️Good spreadability and absorption My skin is on the drier side, and I applied this serum first after cleansing. Since it has a watery texture, it gets absorbed quickly, leaving a smooth and soft feel. It doesn't linger on the surface like a moisturizer, but it also addresses the inner dryness. It seems to be effective in tackling dryness. ✔️Skin tone improvement The period was too short to see significant whitening or blemish improvement effects, but I'm not sure if I noticed much of a change. If the skin looks brighter, then it must be working, but I'm not sure if I'm a slow responder. However, since it's a serum and not a whitening product, the fact that it contains whitening ingredients is actually a plus.
Cons✔️The price is a bit high considering the amount used. As a whitening product, I don't have high expectations, but it does seem to be a good serum for tackling dryness. However, I wouldn't say it's the only product I need to use.

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.ProsFirst, let's highlight the best aspects: 1. Excellent absorption and smooth application The toner absorbs quickly and doesn't feel sticky even right after application! The application is incredibly smooth and moisturizing, making the absorption even faster. This means that when you apply a cream on top, it doesn't feel heavy or suffocating. 2. Pleasant fragrance Personally, I prefer unscented cosmetics, but this serum has a refreshing mint scent from the 'Marine Therapy' product name, which I really enjoy. It puts me in a good mood every time I use it.🥰 3. Improved skin tone While my skin tone didn't dramatically brighten up in the one week I've used it, I did notice my slightly uneven and dull complexion becoming more uniform. The product also claims to improve wrinkles, but I haven't seen those effects yet.
ConsBased on the short usage period, the main downside is that the serum's primary function as a whitening product means it didn't have a significant effect on hydrating my skin. However, when I apply a cream on top, it still performs its basic moisturizing role well. And as I mentioned earlier, the wrinkle improvement is still unclear to me. I'll need to use it for over a month to better judge the brightening effects. Other than that, there's no irritation on my skin, the application is great, and the moisture level is just right, so I don't have any other complaints. ㅎㅎ +I'll come back with an additional review after a month of use.

The scent is not one that would be offensive to anyone, and the texture is comfortable for everyone to apply. The pump dispenses just the right amount. As for the most important function of fading blemishes, I've only used it for about 10 days so far, so I'll need to use it more to know for sure, but I do feel like the blemishes have faded to some degree.
ConsThe price-to-volume ratio is disappointing (I received it for free as a Hwahae Trial Reviewer, but if I were to buy it directly, I would compare it to Isoi). Since I haven't used it enough yet, I can't say for certain about the effectiveness.

When squeezed onto the back of the hand, it has a slightly runny consistency. This seems to contribute to its excellent absorption, and it doesn't leave a sticky feeling after application! However, it doesn't feel completely dry either, with a subtle lingering sensation. The packaging is a pump dispenser, which is a nice advantage over regular serums as it allows for more hygienic use. It's also more convenient to use compared to products with a dropper.
ConsWhile I only used the product for a short period, I didn't notice significant effects. However, for a whitening ampoule, it was relatively moisturizing.

Rather than feeling like my burned face became whiter, it seems the complexion became brighter. After washing my face, I feel like my face looks a bit clearer. If the price is reasonable, I'd like to use it consistently. Since it doesn't disappear as quickly as I thought, I'll try applying more and add a review later! I applied it consistently in the evenings, and sometimes in the mornings and evenings, using 2 pumps per application. 1. Spreadability It has a non-sticky, moisture-rich spreadability. It flows more easily than aloe gel! 2. Absorption It absorbs quickly. It doesn't leave any residue or stick to my hair. 3. Moisturizing I'm not sure if the moisturizing is exceptional. I always applied 2 pumps because I wanted to apply a generous amount. If it wasn't enough, I'd add more. Perhaps due to the quick absorption, my skin doesn't feel constantly damp. However, the next morning, my skin was not dry and felt soft. 4. Skin Type I'm not even sure about my own skin type. It used to be oily, but at some point, it became less oily and clearer. These days, with the transition to spring and summer, I sometimes feel dryness. I suspect it might be combination skin.
ConsThe absorption is fast, but there's a slightly sticky feeling before it fully dries. It's like a weak glue-like sensation... That was a bit disappointing. But it goes away soon, so it's not a major flaw. I checked the price, and that's the disappointing part! For dry skin types, it might be drying! Of course, you wouldn't use it alone, but a moisturizer would be necessary.
TipIf you apply a moisturizer over the serum before it's fully absorbed, the coolness and moisture feel great. Pumping it onto your forehead is more convenient than the palm of your hand. It's best to avoid using it when your skin is sensitive, like after exfoliating. Occasionally, there's a very faint stinging sensation that lasts about 3 minutes. That kind of... tingling feeling was present at times.

It's a bit disappointing that I had to review the product after using it for only 1 week, right after it arrived. However, it's a type that can be used without any aversion, and while it's whitening, it's also quite moisturizing, which is good. It absorbs well and has good spreadability, so it's not sticky at all!
ConsThe whitening effect is a bit disappointing. Since I only used it for a week, there isn't a dramatic effect, but I do feel like my skin is gradually getting lighter. It seems to be the right timing for that. It's a product that can be used without any issues.
TipRather than having high expectations for the whitening effect, if you approach it as a moisturizing serum that also has a whitening effect, you'll be very satisfied with this product. I wanted to attach a photo, but it's difficult to judge objectively due to the difference in morning and evening lighting, or natural vs. artificial lighting, after just one week of use.
