I finally got around to opening the package and trying this product after being swamped with work. Better late than never for this review! It's pleasantly hydrating for my skin. I really like it! For winter, I'd recommend following up with a cream for extra moisture. The packaging is quite attractive too.

Some of the capsules don't seem to dissolve or break open easily. A bit of gentle massage usually does the trick. If that doesn't work, applying a cream afterwards typically helps dissolve any remaining bits. If you still see undissolved capsules, just keep massaging!

First off, it's unscented!! Absolutely no fragrance at all. I loved that so much! The elasticity is fantastic! I generously applied it everywhere - around the eyes, nasolabial folds, forehead, and neck. When pumping it out, I thought it might be too thin for a serum to provide elasticity, but a small amount spreads evenly over the skin. The result? Amazing glow and insane firmness! As someone in their late 20s feeling my skin starting to sag, I've been getting weekly facial massages and switched all my skincare to collagen-based products. Honestly, this product gives better elasticity and glow than those. After it absorbs, your skin feels tightly held together. It also contains niacinamide, which is great for my blemish-prone skin! Unlike my usual niacinamide serum that pills under sunscreen, this one doesn't at all. I can use it morning and night, even under sunscreen!

1. Packaging: Initially, opening the lid was a struggle. I think they were going for a capsule look, but I was confused - pulling, twisting, back and forth, trying everything! It's easier now after repeated use. 2. Capsules: They claim to have encapsulated effective ingredients for healthy skin in transparent micro-capsules. There are indeed many transparent particles! However, they don't break easily. You're supposed to pat it in for better absorption, but no matter how much I pat, the particles don't disappear. It feels like I need to burst these capsules to truly strengthen my skin barrier. By the time I'm done, it feels like I've given myself a facial massage!

The elasticity and glow are above average. Try applying it up to your neck for wrinkle care! I've been using a full-face eye cream on my neck for a year, but didn't see much effect. Thanks to The Hwahae Testers, I could use this product generously. I'm planning to buy one specifically for neck care. You know how important it is to manage neck wrinkles as we age!

1. Gentle ingredients Even with my sensitive skin, I didn't experience any redness when applying it. 2. Excellent absorption It doesn't feel sticky or uncomfortable, and it absorbs well into the skin. 3. Perfect for super sensitive skin!! I think this is really great for people with sensitive skin to use.

To be honest, there aren't any real drawbacks. If I had to pick something, maybe the price is a bit high...? But considering the performance for this price point, I'm satisfied!

This is a review from The Hwahae Testers! I have dry skin and was struggling with blemishes. 💖 Moisturizing It felt more hydrating compared to other serums. 💖 Not heavy Unlike some serums that feel heavy and suffocating due to excess oil, the Skin2H serum left my skin feeling clean and refreshed. 💖 Hygienic The lid makes it hygienic. 💖 Easy-to-apply texture The consistency is just right - not too runny, with a slight viscosity that makes it easy to apply. 🧡 No breakouts I was worried about blemishes, but I didn't experience any while using this serum! However, I'm giving this an orange heart because I'm currently on medication from my dermatologist, so it's a bit ambiguous... haha

💔 The lid can be annoying While the lid is convenient for hygiene, it can be a hassle to open, and when dust accumulates on it, it's uncomfortable to touch my skin! So I ended up just loosely placing the lid on top instead of tightly closing it. Other than that, I didn't notice any major drawbacks. ** Update: I developed some blemishes while using it, but they subsided when I stopped using the product. Be cautious as it may cause breakouts depending on your skin type.

I received the Skin2H Cera Infusion EX Intensive Capsule Serum on December 2nd and have been using it every evening and morning from December 2nd to December 10th after my skincare routine. As winter approaches, bringing cold and dry weather, skin hydration becomes crucial. I was fortunate to receive this serum at just the right time, and I've been using it with great pleasure. To sum it up in one sentence: there's a noticeable difference in my skin before and after applying the serum! Those flaky, dead skin cell-like patches have disappeared too. Appearance: Despite being called a capsule serum, I was surprised to see the actual container shaped like a pill capsule! It's so adorable it could pass for a toy. The pump dispenser releases just the right amount with each press. I accidentally dropped it on my vanity, but it didn't break or dent, proving its durability. Ingredients: As someone with sensitive skin, I always consult the Hwahae app. Searching this product on Hwahae shows its ingredients are very skin-friendly! Zero out of 20 caution ingredients and zero allergy-triggering ingredients! Texture: As you can see in the photo, when squeezed onto the hand, it has a flowing, hydrating consistency. It absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy feeling, just a moisturized sensation. True to its name, it contains capsules, though it's hard to tell if they actually burst. If I'm in a hurry and apply it carelessly, I can sometimes feel the capsule beads on my face. But it's packed with hydration! Non-greasy: Usually, serums can leave a shiny, almost oily finish, but this product just leaves my skin feeling fresh and hydrated! Skin barrier: The packaging mentions patented ingredients that strengthen the skin barrier, along with Lactobacillus ferment lysate, which helps cultivate healthy skin. I can definitely feel my skin barrier becoming stronger! Quantity: Compared to other serums I've used, the amount seems quite generous and adequate.

As mentioned earlier, it's hard to tell whether the capsules actually burst or not.

Applying this serum after my regular skincare routine makes my skin feel even more hydrated!

First off, the case and the shimmering capsules inside are absolutely gorgeous! I expected a thicker consistency since it's a serum, but it was surprisingly fluid. The absorption and application are fantastic. When applied, it gives a subtle glow without any stickiness, leaving the skin feeling fresh. The scent is nearly undetectable, making it easy to use without any aversion. I didn't experience any blemishes during the first few days of use, suggesting it's quite gentle on the skin. As of March 3, 2022, I'm still using it and becoming more satisfied with each use. I've been applying it only in the mornings and it's lasted quite a while, though I'm nearly finished now. My skin feels firmer than before, and I've noticed a slight brightening effect. Still no blemishes, which indicates it's both gentle and effective. I'm definitely considering repurchasing once I run out!

For those with dry skin, using this alone without a cream might be a bit drying. I didn't find many downsides, but if I had to mention one, the lid is quite stiff. I've been leaving it slightly open instead of tightly closed.

It's not exactly a pro tip, but because of the capsules inside, make sure to blend it well. I noticed some capsule particles rolling around on my face after patting it on a few times, so I started applying it with quick, smooth strokes.

Here's what I liked about this product: 1. It has a lightweight texture, not a heavy one. 2. It provided deep hydration, even for my inner dryness (personal opinion). However, on extremely dry days, I did layer it with a cream. 3. Great ingredients! I loved that there were no warnings on the Hwahae app. 4. As someone sensitive to fragrances, I was thrilled it didn't have any strange scents. 5. It gives a glow. If you don't like the initial glow, just apply a bit more and it fades away. 6. Unlike most ampoules that come with droppers, this one has a convenient pump dispenser.

The lid opens by lifting upwards and it has a pump dispenser. 1. The volume seems a bit lacking. 2. As other reviewers mentioned, sometimes the capsules float around, so I had to pat or spread it more. 3. It didn't cause any blemishes on my skin, so I'm using it without issues. 4. The regular price is around $40, which seems high. I'd probably only repurchase during a sale.

My skin type is dry with slight redness. My redness has improved significantly. For those struggling with redness, try changing your routine. If you usually go toner -> emulsion/ampoule -> cream, try a redness-reducing ampoule -> toner instead. This advice is for those with dry skin types.

• Provides excellent hydration • Delivers noticeable soothing effects (redness and irritation are calmed overnight) • Fragrance-free, preventing headaches • Effectively addresses deep dryness • Sturdy pump ensures a pleasant application experience • Transparent bottle allows easy monitoring of product level • Gentle enough for super sensitive skin

• Leaves a slightly sticky finish (though this is common for many serums) • Cap can be difficult to open, requiring extra force • Price point seems a bit high for the value • Active ingredient capsules don't break easily (once applied makeup without realizing unbroken capsules were visible, leading to teasing about 'fish eggs' on my face)

• Tip: Applying a smaller amount seems to help the capsules break more effectively • For those who dislike the sticky texture, following up with the Dive In Cream can help reduce the tacky feeling

I have combination dehydrated skin. During this season when cold winds blow and it gets dry, no amount of moisturizing effort lasts more than a couple of hours. I also have mild atopic symptoms, with redness from the cold wind and stiff, tingling skin around my nose. This is my one-week usage review after receiving the product on December 2nd. Overall rating: ★★★★★ Highly recommended for those with severe deep dryness! *- Scent: Almost fragrance-free *- Application and absorption: It applies smoothly and moistly with a slight viscosity, which is nice as it doesn't run like water. It absorbs quickly into the skin without sitting on top, which is great. Excellent for evening out skin texture. *- Moisturizing power and longevity: In my morning skincare routine before going out, I applied a thin layer twice, followed by a moisturizer and sunscreen. The hydration lasts quite well. I think the good absorption helps the moisturizing effect to last longer. My skin is generally dry, but in winter, the skin around my cheeks, nose, and mouth gets particularly tight and itchy. So I'm always touching my face. Even after morning skincare, the cold wind outside quickly strips away the moisture, causing skin tightness and itching, so I always reapply moisturizer within 2-3 hours. But after changing to this serum, the tightness and itching reduced after about two days. I'm not constantly touching my face anymore!!! It's amazing. Now, after a week, I don't even think about reapplying moisturizer until late afternoon. The absorption and hydration power is truly outstanding. I think I've found an essence that really suits my skin, so I checked the price to stock up, and it's quite expensive. No wonder it absorbs so well and makes my skin so soft - I'll have to use it sparingly~~~♡♡

The full-size product is quite pricey ㅠ ㅜ Being in the 40,000 won range makes me want to use it sparingly. I wish they would have sales more often~~~^—^;;

I apply a thin layer of essence twice, pat it in to absorb, and then use a mask. Compared to using a mask alone, this method keeps my skin moisturized longer and really helps with skin texture refinement, keeping it soft all day long.

Despite having dry skin, I found it hydrating even when I applied only the serum without toner. When I use toner and then the serum before bed, I wake up feeling wonderfully moisturized. The product design is truly beautiful and luxurious. The serum itself is transparent with a pearlescent shimmer, giving it an elegant and pretty appearance. I also appreciate the hygienic aspect, which allows for clean and tidy maintenance. The intense hydration is absolutely fantastic. Even my extremely dry-skinned mom says her skin feels so moisturized after applying toner and then this serum!

As it's a functional product, you naturally expect to see results. However, since my skin is already quite clear, it's difficult to notice significant changes in just a week. So I plan to continue using it long-term. I tend to develop forehead wrinkles due to my habit of furrowing my brow, and I haven't seen improvements in that area yet, so I'll need to keep using it. It's a bit challenging to open the bottle. There's a chance it could be due to a new toner I'm using, or hormonal changes, but after using this product, I noticed some small bumps on my forehead and even a few blemishes. While I haven't established a direct correlation yet, it's worth mentioning that this occurred.
