But after applying this serum every night, it's become incredibly soft, and I've seen a significant improvement in my skin texture! Reduced Tightness After Cleansing - While I'm not entirely sure if it's related to this product, since I started using it, not only has my skin texture improved, but the tightness after cleansing has also disappeared! Absorbs Well - Despite its water-like consistency, it doesn't dry too quickly and applies smoothly. I liked that it absorbs rapidly, allowing me to apply other products soon after.
ConsWater-like Texture - While it absorbs well, the product tends to drip when applied to the skin, which can be a bit inconvenient. Gradual Results - After daily use, I didn't notice any dramatically immediate effects, but I believe consistent use will yield results over time.
TipAfter using toner to refine my skin texture, I apply this serum followed by a hydrating serum. This complete hydration routine leaves my skin incredibly soft and wonderful the next morning!

Due to my sensitive skin, I was a bit anxious about using it for two days in a row. However, I was relieved to find that it didn't cause any blemishes, allowing me to continue using it with peace of mind. Seeing that it didn't cause any issues for my skin, I realized it must be a gentle product. 2. It absorbs well. The formula is fluid, and I applied it to my forehead, cheeks, nose, and chin, spreading it from the inside out and then gently patting it in. I appreciated that it provides an exfoliating effect without causing physical irritation to the skin. 3. When I wake up in the morning, my skin feels soft and smooth. For someone with sensitive skin like me, it's great to be able to remove dead skin cells without rubbing, allowing for exfoliation without causing redness.
ConsI haven't found any downsides yet. If I had to mention something, it's that the fluid formula might run out quickly!
TipI applied it quite generously! After applying this product, I was concerned about potential skin irritation, so I used a product containing 'allantoin' to help soothe my skin.

I used to find regular exfoliation a hassle, but skipping it was noticeably affecting my skin. Irritation: I used it every evening for 10 days (except for two days) and experienced no irritation! Initially, I was worried that continuous use of an exfoliating product might cause irritation, but apart from a slight sting when it touched acne scars, there was no redness, itching, or other discomfort. Skin texture: While there weren't any visible effects after 10 days of use, I feel like the results are gradually appearing. The most noticeable difference is in the morning. At first, I didn't realize it, but now I love that silky-smooth feeling when I wash my face in the morning! Though the improvement in skin texture isn't visibly dramatic, I can definitely feel the difference.
ConsScent: It's almost fragrance-free. There's a very subtle scent, but it's not noticeable and seems to come from the raw ingredients. If I had to describe it, it's kind of... acidic? Not sour, but more like 'Oh, is this acidic?' To be honest, it's not a bad smell, but I had to fill the cons section, so I put it here. Texture and absorption: The consistency is quite runny. Looking at the texture, you'd think it would absorb like water, but it actually clings to the skin as it's absorbed! You could say it's pleasantly tacky, or less favorably, sticky. It's a matter of personal preference, but since I'm not a fan of stickiness, I neutralized it with an emulsion and cream on top. Sebum and acne: I had a slight hope that daily gentle exfoliation might reduce acne, since dead skin cells can contribute to breakouts. But of course, this product isn't specifically formulated for sebum control or acne. It's best to think of it as a product for refining skin texture.
TipWhile daily use seems fine, depending on your skin type, you might want to take a day off occasionally or mix it with other creams and emulsions to dilute the concentration. If you're worried about irritation, it's better to use it at night rather than during the day! When going out, it's a good idea to apply sunscreen. The photo shows how much I used in a week. It looks like the product will last quite a while!

ConsThe formula is quite runny and drips easily The design is... a bit outdated, so I used it without much expectation But I was very satisfied with how it performed
TipIt's perfect to use when your skin texture becomes rough Daily use might be too much, but using it about 3 times a week is enough to achieve glowing skin

If I don't exfoliate regularly, my makeup doesn't apply smoothly, and even after washing, my skin feels rough rather than smooth. 🌈Surface Improvement As I mentioned, if I skip exfoliation even for a short while, my skin becomes rough and feels covered in sebum. But after using this, I definitely started to feel a smoothness! When I apply it at night and wash my face in the morning, my skin feels silky smooth and soft - it's truly a game-changer! This alone makes it worth trying for those with similar skin types or concerns. 🌈Makeup Application Despite managing my oily skin, makeup often didn't sit well, especially around my nose. Even sunscreen wouldn't absorb properly, making me reluctant to apply anything. I was barely getting by with masks and creams, but with this product, sunscreen and cushion foundation now glide on smoothly! Before, products seemed to just sit on top of my skin, but now I fully understand what it means for skin to 'drink up' makeup. 🌈Convenience I used to rely on Skinfood's Black Sugar scrub and another exfoliator, which were effective but time-consuming and cumbersome, leading to irregular use. This product, however, is incredibly easy - just apply after washing your face at night. It's the least stressful exfoliating product I've ever used!
Cons🔥Texture: Liquid (Unscented) The completely liquid texture makes it a bit challenging to apply as it runs down quickly. You need to use the dropper to quickly apply it to your skin and let it absorb. Having used mostly gel-like textures before, it took some time to get used to. However, once applied, it absorbs well! Unlike gel formulas that need to be worked into the skin, this one doesn't require that extra step. 🔥Skin Reaction: Slight Tingling Even though I don't have sensitive skin, it stung quite a bit when I first applied it. My face didn't turn red or break out, but there was a tingling sensation all over. After a few days, my skin seemed to adjust and it didn't sting as much. However, when my skin is tired or in poor condition, I still feel that tingling. It's probably due to the exfoliating nature of the product, but if you dislike this sensation, you might want to avoid it. The instructions even mention using it every other day if you have thin skin, so I guess this is normal for this type of product.
TipI used it in the evening after cleansing, wiping my face with a toner pad or cotton pad soaked in toner, then applying the serum. After letting the serum absorb, I applied my usual emulsion or cream. You probably don't need to use an exfoliating toner before the serum though. I did at first because the instructions said so, but it felt more irritating, so I stopped midway through. The effects seemed the same without it. You could probably just apply the serum and go to sleep, but I applied moisturizer because my skin felt dry.

Every night after cleansing, I apply toner followed by this product. The finish feels nice and firm, but it's a bit drying on its own, so I layer a thin coat of cream on top. Every morning when I wash my face, I can feel how soft my skin has become.
ConsI had a small blemish and a slight wound on my chin, and this product stung a bit when applied there. But that's my fault for not using a patch... Another potential downside, though I'm not sure if it counts as one, is that because it's quite runny, it tends to drip down if you don't apply it quickly. Other than that, I can't think of any real drawbacks.
TipIf you apply toner, then this product, followed by a cream or emulsion, your skin becomes incredibly soft.
