The absorption is extremely fast, and you can immediately notice the improved moisturization when you wake up the next day! * Spreadability - A small amount spreads very well. * Lifting - The effect is not immediately noticeable, but you can feel the tightening sensation after some time. * Fragrance - The fragrance is just right, not too strong and not odorless either. It has a mild herbal scent that won't be a major turn-off for most people.
ConsThose who are expecting a noticeable lifting effect in a short period of time should lower their expectations.

This is a great product for sensitive skin like mine, and it's perfect for adding extra hydration during the dry, transitional weather seasons.
ConsI'm not sure I found anything I disliked. Maybe the ingredients? Just 20 characters.
TipIf it feels too lightweight, you can add an extra layer of cream.

The container is one-piece, so you don't have to worry about losing the cap. And the feature I liked most was that you can twist the top to lock/unlock it! So even if you put it in your pouch, you don't have to worry about it leaking.
ConsSince I've only been using it for less than 2 weeks, I'm not sure about the full effects yet. But it doesn't seem like the effects are as noticeable as the price would suggest. Using this alone as a final step feels a bit lacking in moisture, so I end up applying a moisturizing gel afterwards to finish my routine. The scent is one I haven't encountered before, so people may have mixed opinions on it.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsHere is the review from the Hwahae Trial Reviewer! ✔️ The formula itself is quite thin. I thought the lifting serum would have a bit more viscosity, but when I first pumped it, I was surprised by how thin it was. That's probably why it absorbs so quickly! ✔️ Since it absorbs so fast, I can apply my makeup right after using it in the morning without any issues like pilling or anything. ✔️ Once it's absorbed, the finish is so nice! It has a plump, bouncy feel when it first goes on, but after a little while, the surface of my skin feels silky smooth. ✔️ I'm only writing this review after using it for a week, so I haven't seen dramatic lifting effects yet, but I do want to keep using it consistently.
Cons✔️ I was expecting a berry scent since it's made with patented grape ingredients, but when I first smelled it, it was a mix of berry and a slight plastic-y note that caught me off guard. However, the lingering scent after application, if you can even call it that, is a subtle, sophisticated fragrance! You just have to get past the initial scent when you first apply it. Overall, everything else was great, but that initial scent was a bit disappointing, so I'm taking off one star.

After application, it doesn't feel sticky and leaves a wonderfully soft and refreshed sensation! It instantly moisturizes, and when layered, it helps makeup apply beautifully!
ConsThe fragrance might be divisive! It's hard to describe, but it's a scent I've never encountered before...
TipMassaging it gently into the fine lines around the eyes and neck area can be beneficial!

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros*Skin Type: Combination/Trouble Skin I was curious about the product that I needed for wrinkle care at my age, and I was glad to try it out! As a brand that I've always been satisfied with, from Caudalie's lip products to cosmetics, I had high expectations. First of all, the container has a pump-type lid that can be opened and closed by turning it, which is more convenient to use than a dropper. Although the formula was opaque, it didn't feel too heavy and absorbed well!! Even the best cosmetics aren't good if they don't absorb well. It absorbed well, and even when I layered it twice, there was no pilling or heavy, stuffy feeling, and it felt moisturizing. It didn't cause any slipping or oiliness before makeup, and my makeup didn't break down either. Yet, it didn't leave my skin feeling dry. After using it for a week, I couldn't see much improvement in wrinkles, but my skin felt smoother when cleansing in the morning, and I think I saw some gradual improvement in skin texture and complexion.
ConsWhen I first smelled it, I thought there might be some like or dislike, but for me, it was neither. I was able to use it without any issues. It has a neutral herbal+woody scent. It's a fairly versatile serum that can be used by any skin type, but the price seems a bit high. It would be great if they could have more frequent discount events!
TipIt absorbed well and wasn't heavy, so when I layered it twice, it felt even more moisturizing and nice~I also applied it to the neck area for wrinkle improvement. There's also the Vinoperfect Radiance Serum, so I tried using the two in succession for a whitening and wrinkle care effect, and it worked well👍

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsFirst, the Caudalie brand has been something I've really wanted to try for a long time as it's famous for being great for antioxidants with its main ingredient being grape vine extract! 1. Spreadability It's a thin lotion formula, but I was able to apply it multiple times without any issues, and even when applying it before makeup, my foundation didn't slide at all, so it was great to use in the mornings. 2. Absorption In addition to the first point, this was another part I really liked. It absorbs really well, so I was able to apply it multiple times without any problems, and the finish was refreshing, so in the hot summer I would just finish with the serum and go to sleep. It has a good amount of moisture as well, so it was great for my dry skin in the summer.
Cons1. Fragrance Rather than a downside, it was just surprising that the fragrance was different than I expected. Since the image of 'grape' is strong, I thought it would have a refreshing scent, but the woody scent from the 'grape vine' was more prominent, and there was also a slight herbal/grassy fragrance that was stronger. It wasn't overpowering by my standards, so it wasn't bad when using it. 2. Moisture Since my skin is extremely dry, lately as we move into fall, using it alone without a moisturizer feels a bit drying. I think this part can be addressed by applying a serum and then following up with a cream or oil!

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThis serum seems to suit the cool, refreshing weather we're having now. It's not sticky, but it's not overly drying either - it's just the right consistency. When applied, it's quickly absorbed and doesn't cause any issues with layering other products. On days when you don't feel like doing a full routine, this serum alone can keep your skin from feeling dry. However, in the winter, this might not be enough on its own. But overall, after trying it, I think it's hard to find a more balanced, basic serum type that's not too much or too little.
ConsSince it's a pump-style formula, it's easy to use, but the texture is a bit thin, so it can splatter around the opening when dispensing. That means you have to be careful to wipe the area around the opening. And the biggest downside is the fragrance - I really don't like it. It's not the typical fragrance you find in recent skincare products. The scent seems to dissipate quickly, but every time I apply it, I think 'this just doesn't work for me.' I feel like the fragrance doesn't blend well with other skin care products I use.

No trouble at all even with sensitive skin 2. Good spreadability and absorption 3. Light texture but appropriately bouncy 4. Makeup adheres well with no sliding 5. Twist-lock function to prevent leakage 1. No trouble at all even with sensitive skin My skin has become very sensitive lately, so I was worried about trying a new cosmetic product. Fortunately, I was able to use it without any issues. However, this may vary depending on individual skin types, so I would recommend checking the ingredients carefully, especially for those with highly sensitive skin. 2. Good spreadability and absorption The texture is watery, but it has an appropriate bounciness without stickiness. It absorbs well into the skin when applied. For oily skin types, a light single layer should be sufficient. 3. Light texture but appropriately bouncy *Highly recommended for those who dislike heavy textures!* *Dry skin types can try layering twice* The product feels more nourishing than the lightweight texture suggests. After patting and allowing absorption, a single layer lasts around 2 hours (for dry areas) before the bounciness fades, leaving a slightly moisturized finish. As a combination skin type, I felt it was slightly lacking, but layering it again helps the bouncy effect last longer. So dry skin types can benefit from this layering technique. 4. Makeup adheres well with no sliding *Oily skin types can use this alone before makeup, Dry skin types can layer it twice to thoroughly absorb before applying makeup* Dry skin types often find that their makeup doesn't last long when the base is not hydrated enough. This product's texture is particularly suitable for applying before makeup, as it creates a bouncy, long-lasting base. Lightly applied, the makeup adheres well without sliding. You can also set it with powder for a long-lasting, dewy makeup look.
Cons🤍 Downsides 1. The price is too expensive The product performance was extremely appealing to me, but I don't think I can justify the cost to purchase it... 2. The fragrance may be divisive At first, I felt the fragrance had an artificial, expensive cosmetic scent. But surprisingly, after using it a few times, I started to perceive it as more of a floral, herbal scent. I personally enjoy floral scents, but those who prefer unscented products may not appreciate it.
TipFor dry skin types, layering the product twice and thoroughly patting it in before applying makeup helps the makeup adhere well. If you also set it with powder, you can achieve a dewy, long-lasting makeup look that maintains moisture for quite a while.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros💙Texture and Formulation: Highly recommended in terms of the actual usage experience!!!!! It has a thin, opaque texture that doesn't drip, just the right viscosity! But it gets absorbed quickly and has zero stickiness. I really love it. And since I have oily skin, I really dislike greasy or slippery feels, but this just feels moisturized after absorption. It's like something has filled up my skin? But the surface is still smooth? Among all the serums and creams I've tried so far, this is my favorite. 💙Moisturizing: This really gives a sense of fullness! I have oily skin, so I'm not sure how those with dry skin would feel, but I think it's good for oily skin with some dryness, and even for just oily skin in general. 💙Pump Bottle + Twisting Cap: This may seem like a small thing, but the pump bottle is great for clean application. And while there's no full cover cap, the product cap itself clicks firmly into place when twisted, so I don't have to worry about leaks when traveling.
Cons🖤Price!!!!! I was really shocked when I saw the price. Over 80,000 won? But the volume is only 30ml, so it might be difficult to use generously. 🖤Wrinkle Improvement: I haven't noticed any significant improvement in wrinkles yet! I have some horizontal neck wrinkles, and I've been applying it consistently for over a week, but no visible effects so far. 🖤Fragrance (May be an issue for some) I personally don't mind it, as long as it's not an artificial, cheap-smelling fragrance. But this has a rather mysterious scent. It's not a natural smell, but it's not a heavy cosmetic fragrance either... It's a bit of a new experience.
