I've tried many famous niacinamide serums, but they didn't suit me well. This one, however, is different. It's incredibly hydrating and has a delightfully bouncy texture. Right after cleansing, I apply it generously, and it instantly quenches any deep dryness. Unlike irritating products that can cause stinging or a burning sensation around the nose, this one doesn't do that at all (which happened with previous niacinamide products that didn't suit me). Highly recommended!
ConsJust one minor issue: I noticed small, hard white particles coming out of the container tip. It seems that residue from previous uses accumulates and hardens at the tip, then comes out during the next application.
TipApply this serum immediately after washing your face. If you still feel dry, follow up with a moisturizer.

It's so light and watery that you can apply it as the first step in your skincare routine. Although it contains niacinamide, it's almost like a hyaluronic acid formula - you wouldn't even know unless someone told you. The pump bottle makes it easy to use, and it comes with a cap for the nozzle, making it convenient and not too bulky for travel. Despite being called a serum, its texture is more like a toner. Since both dry and oily skin types need hydration, this is a great lightweight product for all skin types to use in their basic skincare routine.
ConsI'm not sure if it's just me, but after using this product at night, I notice that the nozzle becomes white and crusty by the next day or evening when I try to use it again. At first, I didn't realize and just pumped it out, which resulted in white particles mixing with the product. It's a bit annoying that you have to clean the nozzle after each use.
TipRather than being a moisturizing product, this is more for adding hydration to the skin. It's best to apply a product with more oils either during or after using this one. For those with dry skin, mixing it with a richer product will help it spread more smoothly.

At first, it felt unusual, but knowing they've excluded artificial thickeners actually put my mind at ease. After all, I believe it's far better to apply a serum packed with effective ingredients rather than one with artificially enhanced viscosity. Without thickeners, it's less sticky and absorbs quickly into the skin. High concentration yet gentle: After being selected as one of The Hwahae Testers, I learned that niacinamide helps with blemishes, brightening, and improving skin barrier. While the officially recognized concentration for whitening effects is 2-5%, this ingredient is known to be relatively safe, which is why many products, like this one, contain higher concentrations. I was initially worried about potential irritation or side effects since I hadn't properly used a niacinamide product before, but I experienced no such issues at all.
ConsIf I had to nitpick, the hydration level is slightly lacking. It's not a big deal since I'll be applying a moisturizer afterward anyway. Update: After using it for a few days, I noticed some crystallization around the opening. When applying, it feels like a tiny grain of salt is being spread on my face each time.
