Being colorless and odorless, it's reassuring that it can be used without irritation even on sensitive or blemish-prone skin. I use it for night care in spring and summer, and I'll explain why in the drawbacks section.
ConsIf you apply too much of this product, it tends to pill. It feels like crystals are forming... If you don't wipe the opening, crystals form there too. On the skin, if you apply too much, it suddenly starts to pill and turn white! So you can't be greedy with application, and it's absolutely not suitable before makeup. That's why I only apply it in the evening. Overall, while it's a mild and gentle product, I can't really feel any brightening effects on my complexion. I probably won't repurchase it.

I think it might be suitable for those with dry skin.
ConsI have oily skin, and after using this, my small blemishes seem to get worse. Now that I've stopped using it for 3 days, my skin is starting to calm down again.

With 21% niacinamide + 1% low molecular weight hyaluronic acid, this serum is designed for brightening, hydration, and excellent absorption. You don't even need to layer additional ampoules afterwards - it leaves your skin care routine feeling moisturized and firm. ✓ It's fragrance-free, a ray of hope for those who found the typical niacinamide scent overwhelming Many niacinamide products often have a somewhat unpleasant smell, but this one doesn't have that characteristic odor. It's practically fragrance-free, allowing for a comfortable skincare experience! Overall, this is an ideal cosmetic for those wanting to boost their hydration and brightening routine. It also helps simplify your skincare steps, so keep that in mind.
ConsBe cautious when applying to areas with acne or wounds as it may cause a stinging sensation! Just be careful when applying and you should be fine.

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.ProsI love how convenient it is to have niacinamide and hyaluronic acid combined in one product, instead of applying them separately. It has a slightly viscous, water-like texture that applies smoothly and absorbs well. After application, you can feel a light moisturizing effect. With consistent use, you can see your complexion brighten. I'm really impressed with how it absorbs, its effectiveness, and overall skin improvement - I think I'll be using this product for life!
ConsThere's nothing to dislike about this product. It's completely satisfying. I highly recommend everyone give it a try.
TipMy previous niacinamide product couldn't be used with Vitamin C, which was disappointing. However, this one can be applied 4-5 minutes after Vitamin C, allowing you to use both in your routine.

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.ProsI love that it contains niacinamide and hyaluronic acid, which helps with hydration, texture, and revitalizing the skin! It's great that once it's fully absorbed, there's no sticky feeling left behind. Plus, I didn't experience any blemishes from using it.
ConsIt's best not to expect extremely intense hydration from this product. While it claims to contain 21% niacinamide, well... it seems to improve skin texture, but the brightening effect and skin revitalization were quite subtle. Also, I found it odd that once it's fully absorbed, it feels like the liquid is solidifying on my face.
TipMake sure to clean the lid well after each use before storing! As you can see in the attached photo, powder residue from the ampoule tends to build up on the lid and around the container opening.

Texture: - Runny consistency, fragrance-free, and transparent - Non-sticky with a fresh finish 2. Ingredients: - I felt reassured as it didn't cause any blemishes, suggesting gentle ingredients 3. Hydration: - Absorbs well due to its lightweight formula - Moisturizing with decent lasting power
ConsThe lightweight formula that absorbs quickly left me wishing for a bit more hydration.
TipI layered it after toner, applied Dermafactory serum to build a hydrating base, followed by my usual ampoule, and finished with cream. This routine created a solid foundation, resulting in flawless makeup application!

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.ProsThis serum comes in a sleek, elegant bottle that gives off a very clean impression. After a few initial pumps, the product dispenses easily. The formula is extremely lightweight. Despite its watery consistency, I was pleasantly surprised to find that it absorbs well into the skin, leaving behind a clear, radiant glow. The fragrance-free formula is a big plus. Even though my skin has been quite sensitive lately due to the cold weather, I experienced no blemishes and sailed through the adjustment period without any issues. While it doesn't absorb super quickly, the finish is clean and smooth, making me overall very satisfied with this product.
ConsThe formula is so thin that it's challenging to pump directly onto the face. I usually pump onto my cheeks and forehead, but it would run down to my neck, forcing me to use my hands. I wish it had a slightly thicker consistency.
TipWhile I didn't experience any blemishes, I did feel a slight tingling sensation for the first two days (though this may vary depending on your skin type). For first-time users, I recommend pairing it with a soothing cream for added comfort.

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.ProsI was fortunate to become part of The Hwahae Testers and try this product. Initially, I was a bit worried as it was an unfamiliar brand, but the texture is light like water, similar to a toner. Using it alone might be too drying, so you'll likely need to follow up with a cream or emulsion. It's hydrating and absorbs quickly, making it perfect for those who dislike sticky products. The scent is completely neutral - you can't smell anything at all. I have acne-prone skin, but I didn't experience any breakouts. It seems like a great product for light hydration. After continued use, I'd say it's not recommended for acne-prone skin. It can be quite tingling on damaged or sensitive skin. It's probably best suited for those with clear skin looking for a hydration boost.
ConsIt stings a bit when you've popped a pimple or have wounds on your face... I wouldn't recommend applying it when your skin is very irritated or has open wounds.
TipThe texture is fluid like a toner, so it's great for layering multiple times. Following up with a cream or emulsion is a must.

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☆☆Here's a review from The Hwahae Testers☆☆ ○ User age and gender: Mid-30s male ○ Skin type: Dry and sensitive ● Product advantages: 1. Absorbs quickly. It's not even January yet, but with temperatures already dropping to -20°C, my skin is getting extremely dry. I was lucky to be selected for The Hwahae Testers program for Dermafactory's Niacin Hyaluron 21% Serum. I've been comparing it to my usual hydrating toner for about a week. Compared to my regular hydrating toner, this serum's quick absorption is a big plus. The product absorbs into the skin almost immediately, leaving just the right amount of moisture. This makes it super easy to follow up with emulsion and sunblock without any product interference. It's made my skincare routine so much more convenient! 2. Great value for money. I occasionally buy hydrating serums like this from Olive Young or online during winter. Usually, they're around 50ml for about 20,000 won. This product, however, offers 80ml for just 15,000 won at the lowest online price. Since we tend to use more product in winter, this kind of value is always welcome. 3. Seems to brighten the complexion? I've been using this product mainly after my morning cleanse, and I feel like my skin tone looks a bit brighter than usual. I've been using the same cleansing oil, foam cleanser, and sunblock as before, so this added glow really boosts my satisfaction with the product.
Cons1. The scent is a bit disappointing. The product info mentions a rose scent, but honestly... I could barely detect any fragrance at all. If you're buying this product specifically for its rose scent, you might be disappointed. 2. Despite being certified vegan, I felt a slight irritation after use. I have super sensitive skin, so I'm always careful about choosing products with non-irritating ingredients on Hwahae. However, I felt a slight burning sensation right after applying this serum post-cleansing. That said, this sensation disappeared quickly, and I didn't experience any blemishes, redness, or other side effects. It's hard to pinpoint the exact cause in just a week - it could be due to the recent cold weather or changes in my skincare routine. However, since the irritation was brief and didn't lead to any adverse reactions, I'd still consider buying this product if I were in the market for a new serum. The price point makes it a low-risk investment for testing, too.

When applied, it doesn't feel sticky at all, provides good hydration, and absorbs well into the skin. It noticeably helps with deep dryness, making it perfect for winter use. Being fragrance-free, it's really suitable for everyday use without any fuss.
ConsThere's nothing particularly disappointing about this product. The price is reasonable, and it works exceptionally well for my skin!
TipThis product is great for effortless use both in the morning and evening skincare routines.
