While the 8% AHA might cause a bit of tingling, it applies smoothly and delivers great results

체스트넛 아하 8% 클리어 에센스

I've heard that AHA is a chemical exfoliant, so you shouldn't use it too frequently. Maybe that's why I find myself hesitating to reach for it...

It glides on like water, feels silky smooth, and seems to absorb well. I've heard that your skin feels incredibly soft the next day after applying it. I really liked that there wasn't any noticeable irritation.

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem very effective for removing dead skin cells, which is a bit disappointing.

Great for hydration boost. As someone who prefers fragrance-free cosmetics, I really appreciated that this product is unscented.

Being a mild and lightweight product, it's less effective on small blemishes compared to other exfoliating ingredients. If you're not a fan of water-like textures, you might find it uncomfortable to apply.

It's gentle and perfect for light skin texture management. The water-like formula makes it easy to apply, just like a toner.

While I use it daily, I must admit that for exfoliation, using a physical peeling gel is definitely more effective.

I usually worry about dead skin cells and skin texture. This AHA 8% essence is more effective at exfoliating than other essences. I thought it might sting when applied, but it's as gentle as a regular water-based essence with no irritation.

I don't feel like it's particularly effective at removing dead skin cells

I like that it seems to exfoliate without causing any irritation

The texture is too watery, like a toner, and the pump is inconvenient to use.

It's easy to use for quick skincare. The price is affordable, so the value for money is decent.

So far, I haven't found any downsides, and I think it would be excellent for acne-prone skin

I've been using this great product religiously once a week lately

While it can be used morning or night, my current golden tip is to use it every morning after an exfoliating toner, as I alternate between brightening and retinol products each evening. With daily use, I'm not sure if it's dissolving dead skin cells or removing them, but after applying two essences to finish my skincare routine, only the areas where I applied this product have a glow. It makes me wonder if I should be applying it all over...

The fact that it's safe for daily use suggests it's mild, but even after several days of use, the color doesn't fade. I expected the pump to dispense smoothly, but it shoots out abruptly, which startled me. The spring inside seems to be the issue - it would be better if it were a bit looser.

This could be helpful for those with issues on their forehead, chin, and nose bridge. I bought it because it's said to be safe for daily use. You can focus on using it on the nose tip where blackheads often reside, and on the forehead and chin where whiteheads tend to settle. The ingredients aren't too harsh, so I applied it daily. No blemishes occurred. I ordered thinking it was 50ml, but received 100ml. It's thinner than expected and absorbs so quickly it's almost suspicious. Reapplying wasn't an issue, but those with super sensitive skin should be cautious.

It doesn't provide much in terms of hydration. Since it absorbs so quickly, you need to apply the next product in your routine right away.

This product seems worth recommending! It feels gentle enough for daily use without any issues. It has a slightly viscous, watery toner texture. When applied, there's minimal tingling sensation (just a tiny bit noticeable). The pump dispenser is a plus. In the morning after cleansing, you can really feel your skin texture improving. It also absorbs well into the skin.

It's not very effective for blemishes! I'd recommend purchasing this if your goal is to improve skin texture or remove dead skin cells.

I saw improvements in my skin texture. Despite the high concentration of AHA, there was hardly any irritation. It has a water-like consistency, so it absorbs well into the skin.
