After using it as a base, you can apply makeup right away without any pilling or breakdown. ▷ Scent ●●●◐○ It has that unique Caudalie fragrance, which isn't overpowering. Personally, I love it, but some might not be fans. ▷ Absorption ●●●●● It doesn't sit on the surface but immediately sinks in, leaving your skin feeling fresh the next morning. A little goes a long way. After using it for a week, thanks to the patented resveratrol, hyaluronic acid, and collagen ingredients, my skin texture improved and somehow felt increasingly supple. After toning, I apply a thin layer of this, followed by my usual cream or emulsion. The result? A moisturized and refreshed feeling!
ConsWhile I was slightly disappointed that the ingredients aren't 100% clean, I was relieved to see it's free of parabens, phenoxyethanol, mineral oil, and PEG ingredients.

The packaging is sleek, and for a product with lifting properties, it's surprisingly refreshing while still offering great hydration. Although I had to reapply a few times due to the changing seasons, it's not bad considering it's a serum. I love how it goes from moisturizing to silky smooth, and with a scent to match, it feels like a skincare version of a powder compact overall!
ConsThe fragrance is somewhat reminiscent of a powder compact... While it's not particularly unpleasant, I found the lingering scent a bit disappointing.
TipIt can be used alone in summer, but for other seasons, those with combination skin that tends to get oily should definitely follow up with a skin emulsion, essence, and cream.

I love how it doesn't feel sticky after application, leaving a fresh and powdery finish. It instantly hydrates the skin, and when layered, it creates a perfect base for makeup!
ConsThe scent might be polarizing. It's hard to describe... it's unlike any fragrance I've encountered before.
TipIt's great to apply this thoroughly while massaging around the fine lines near the eyes and neck wrinkles!

Lightweight feel I thought it might be heavy and sticky since it's a serum, but I was pleasantly surprised by its fluid texture and lightweight feel. Since I apply cream afterward, serums that are too heavy tend to feel sticky. However, this one didn't compromise on hydration - my skin felt moisturized and seemed to absorb it well. 2. Natural scent It has a woody, slightly herbal scent that I can't quite place, but I found it inoffensive. 3. Pump dispenser I really liked the packaging. The pump is incredibly smooth, making it very user-friendly.
Cons1. Difficult to gauge effectiveness Due to the short usage period, I couldn't visibly notice the serum's effects. It felt similar to using a hydrating serum. 2. Price point The regular price is just over 80,000 won. I'm not sure if it's due to expensive ingredients or brand premium, but I question whether it's worth the investment. There are many more affordable Korean skincare products with good ingredients available.

It's hydrating and keeps my skin moisturized for a long time, even without applying cream. I also love that it feels non-sticky when applied not just to the face, but also to the neck. Suitable for Sensitive Skin: 5/5 My skin easily develops blemishes and redness when I use just any skincare product. However, this serum caused no irritation at all. It's a gentle product that didn't cause redness or tingling. Daily Serum: 3/5 Being a hydrating serum, it absorbs quickly, making it satisfying for both night and morning care routines. Ingredients: 5/5 I appreciate that it contains 97% plant-derived ingredients and doesn't include animal-derived parabens, phenoxyethanol, mineral oils, or PEGs. It's reassuring to use a product with such thoughtful ingredients. Eco-Friendly Brand: 5/5 While I love the product's feel, hydration, and effectiveness, what impresses me most is the brand's admirable ethos. It's my first time trying this brand, and I've learned that they've planted 7,529,086 trees since 2012 and plan to plant 8,000,000 trees worldwide in 2021. It feels like both my skin and conscience will benefit from this product.
ConsFragrance: 2/5 While I'm not particularly sensitive to fragrances, the scent is somewhat perfume-like and not to my taste. However, fragrance perception varies from person to person, so give it a try yourself! Price: 2/5 The price is quite steep for the amount you get. It's hard to justify over $80 for such a small serum. While I'd consider repurchasing, the price gives me pause.
TipHighly recommended for daily use during seasonal transitions!

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.ProsTexture and Feel: Highly recommended for its amazing feel! It has a thin, opaque consistency that doesn't run, absorbs quickly, and leaves zero stickiness. As someone with oily skin who hates greasy or slippery textures, this one just leaves a moisturized feeling after absorption. It's like something is filled inside the skin, but the surface feels smooth. It's the best serum or cream texture I've ever used! Hydration: It really gives a feeling of deep hydration! As someone with oily skin, I'm not sure how those with dry skin would feel, but it seems great for oily skin types with dehydration issues, and even for just oily skin in general. Pump Bottle + Twist-Lock Cap: This might seem minor, but the pump bottle is great for clean application. While it doesn't have a full outer cap, the product cap itself twists and locks firmly, making it perfect for travel without worrying about leaks.
ConsPrice: I was shocked by the price. Over 80,000 won...? And it's only 30ml, so it's hard to use generously. Wrinkle Improvement: So far, I haven't noticed any significant wrinkle improvement. I've been applying it consistently to the horizontal lines on my neck for over a week, but no visible effects yet. Scent (I'm okay with it, but others might not be): Personally, I'm fine with any scent as long as it's not a strong, cheap artificial smell. However, this has a unique fragrance. It's not a natural scent, definitely a cosmetic smell, but not light either... It's a bit of an unfamiliar scent.

It feels more deeply hydrating than when I just apply toner and cream.
ConsThere's nothing particularly disappointing about it... I'll need to use it a bit longer to know for sure.

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.ProsBasic info: 30ml, made in France, anti-wrinkle functional cosmetic Packaging: Sturdy glass container. Pump-style dispenser which is great for minimizing air exposure. Color and texture: Milky white, light emulsion consistency Application, hydration, and wrinkle improvement: Silky texture that feels soft and moisturizing. No stickiness at all. Extremely hydrating when applied, with a slight oiliness that seems good for moisturizing. Skin feels hydrated even minutes after absorption. Excellent moisturizing effect. Haven't noticed significant wrinkle improvement in less than a month of use, but it's been gentle on the skin Ingredients: Contains Palmitoyl Grape Vine Shoot Extract, which explains the grape illustration on the bottle. Seems to be the key ingredient. Love the smooth application, hydrating effect, and gentle ingredients (except for fragrance) true to its natural cosmetics claim. Overall, very satisfying!
ConsConcerned about the three fragrance-related potential allergens. Was the scent really necessary? Disappointing to see these fragrance ingredients. Scent: Personally not a fan of this unique, unidentifiable fragrance
TipThanks to its light consistency, a small pump goes a long way - you can cover quite a large area as it absorbs well!

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.ProsMy skin type is combination - oily on the outside, dry on the inside. The product has a light emulsion texture. I wish I could upload a video to show you, but photos are the only option. It's moisturizing without feeling greasy. While it doesn't give an overwhelming burst of hydration, it leaves the skin feeling comfortably hydrated. After application, there's a nice balance of moisture with a slight tightening effect - not from dryness, but a firming sensation. The packaging is hygienic with a lockable pump dispenser. I haven't quite used it for two full weeks due to holiday shipping delays, but I'm eager to continue using it. That's why I've given it 4 stars for now. Since it's an emulsion rather than a heavy cream, I think I'll reach for this more often than other lifting creams I have at home.
ConsI haven't found any downsides yet. If I notice any areas for improvement after further use, I'll update my review.

Since it's an anti-wrinkle product, I thought it might leave a residue, but not at all... It absorbs even better than most combination dehydrated skin products. Improves skin texture - It sinks in quickly with a light, moisturizing feel, so the effects were noticeable. My skin feels slightly softer? - I have to wear a mask all day, so I remove a lot of sebum, which can enlarge pores and make skin sag a bit if not cared for. Since using this, my skin always feels firm without any extra care. Wrinkle reduction - I have some neck wrinkles, but when I apply it upwards, they gradually fade. It's much better than those wrinkle balms... Absorbs easily - The application is amazing. It's moisturizing and absorbs well, but it doesn't evaporate instantly. Even a small amount spreads smoothly over the entire face and neck.
ConsScent - Personally, I don't dislike it, but it might be divisive. It smells like mugwort. Price - Well... this disappointing aspect needs no explanation... Amount used - Maybe because it's thin and soft, it seems to run out quickly. I received my Hwahae Testers package early, so I've been using it for just over a week since before Chuseok. I started using both day and night, then switched to just night, but I've already used half the bottle.
TipIt's fine to apply during the day due to its good absorption, but it's definitely better to apply at night when you're not using your facial muscles as much!
