To be honest, it's hard to expect cosmetics to completely eliminate dark spots, so I prefer products that improve overall skin texture and complexion. The Banobagi serum is colorless and fragrance-free, which gives it a refreshing feel. The ingredients also seem good, so I think it would be suitable even for blemish-prone skin. The texture is a moderately thick essence. It doesn't run like water, so I was worried it might be heavy, but after applying it, it absorbs without feeling sticky. This makes it suitable for both dry and oily skin types. After using it for about 10 days, while I can't say there were dramatic effects from the cosmetic alone, I do feel like my skin texture and complexion have become clearer.
ConsI don't have any particular complaints, but the amount is not very large, so I think I'll use it up quickly. I wish they would make it in a larger size...
TipI think it would be good to use a vitamin product along with this!

Texture: Viscous enough not to drip, about 3 drops from the dropper cover the entire face 2. Application: Initially feels slightly sticky, but absorbs without residue when spread well 3. Ingredients: Arbutin and Niacinamide, both help inhibit melanin production for brightening. Their high position on the ingredient list suggests significant concentrations. Propanediol minimizes irritation while moisturizing, making this serum optimized for brightening and hydration 4. Skin condition and changes after use: While Stievaa ointment shortens skin cell turnover to prevent photoaging, it can be irritating and incompatible with other potentially irritating ingredients. However, when used with the Alpha Radiance Glow Serum, I experienced no irritation. After using the serum, I noticed my uneven complexion became more uniform 5. Packaging: Unlike many serums with subpar droppers, this one effectively draws up the product and dispenses it well. The white packaging stands out beautifully on a vanity I thought Banobagi was just a famous plastic surgery clinic, but they also do a lot of dermatological procedures. Since this serum is developed by a dermatology clinic, I believe it can be trusted
ConsIf there's one slight disappointment, it's that the volume is a bit on the smaller side
TipRecommended for those who prioritize ingredients! It would also work well with pharmacy skincare products It's great to use alongside Bepanthen or D-panthenol, which are excellent for hydration

The feel is super lightweight, but you can really sense the hydration bursting where it's applied! There's absolutely no fragrance, which is great for those with sensitive noses. It seems they haven't added any fragrances, which can be harsh on the skin. I love how gentle the ingredients are!
ConsThe ingredients are extremely safe and gentle, making it the perfect serum for this chilly transitional season! So far, I haven't found anything to complain about!
TipI have combination dehydrated skin, and when I apply this serum after cleansing and toning, right before makeup, there's no pilling at all! It doesn't feel dry, helps my makeup go on smoothly, and because it's a hydrating serum, it doesn't make my skin oily over time. I really like it!

Texture: Doesn't run easily, has a slight viscosity 2. Absorption: Applies thinly and absorbs completely within 1 minute 3. Oiliness: Low enough shine that even combination dehydrated skin types can use it comfortably 4. Scent: Completely fragrance-free, ideal for those with scent sensitivities
Cons1. Quantity: Disappointingly small amount compared to face area 2. Hydration: While moisturizing, it has a fresh finish that makes you feel like you need to apply more (Consider seasonal dryness; in summer, this alone might be enough for combination dehydrated skin) 3. Container: The dropper feels somewhat stiff when dispensing

It's not runny like a nose drip, but it's not super thick either. I really dislike sticky formulas, and this one isn't sticky at all. It absorbs well and spreads easily, which I loved. * Scent: It's almost fragrance-free, which I appreciated. No off-putting smell! * Effects: It seems to improve my complexion somewhat, but I'll need to use it more to be sure. I have super sensitive skin, but this didn't cause any blemishes, so I feel confident using it regularly.
ConsThe volume is a bit small; it could come in a larger size. Since it has a dropper, it's slightly inconvenient to have to squeeze multiple times to get enough product out.
TipIt's a great size for traveling.

While I haven't seen any brightening effects yet, it seems to provide decent hydration. I think it could work well even during winter.
ConsThe amount of product seems a bit small. Although the price isn't exorbitant, it's not exactly budget-friendly either. So far, I'm not feeling a strong urge to purchase it.

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.ProsFirst off, I love that it has a non-runny snail mucin texture, which is perfect for dry skin - the consistency had me sold from the start! As a glow enthusiast, I was super excited about the 'glow' in its name. It's a gentle product without any pore-clogging ingredients, so it doesn't cause any blemishes. Even after applying toner and serum, I don't feel any dryness. The absorption is fantastic, and despite its snail mucin texture, it doesn't feel sticky or cause any pilling.
ConsThe dropper pump dispenser might feel a bit frustrating for some. If you're used to slathering on a generous amount of essence at once, you might find it quite overwhelming. I initially tried pumping it three times... The next day, I tried just one pump and found it was just right. Don't get greedy or frustrated - one pump is plenty!!!
TipWith its rich essence texture, it's more recommended for nighttime care rather than morning routines!

I had been complacent because of my fair skin, but now I'm paying the price! That's why I've become interested in brightening products. The slender bottle with a dropper makes it easy to use. It's fragrance-free, and the texture is firm enough not to drip but still glides on smoothly. The absorbs well is excellent. It's so hydrating that I felt I didn't need any other serums. I just layered the One Thing regenerating cream on top for moisture. I tried to use it mainly in the evening. When applying my skincare, I also put some on my forearms. To be honest, I'm concerned about some dark spots or age spots that have appeared there. I think it takes consistent use to see brightening results. I'll come back to leave another review after I've finished the whole bottle to check the effects.
ConsThere's nothing particularly bad to mention. Maybe that the volume is small, so it might run out quickly? But personally, I like that it's compact enough to fit nicely in my vanity drawer and allows for a clean application.

The texture isn't runny like other serums, but has a nice slight viscosity which I love! It absorbs well and doesn't leave any stickiness after application. It feels like it's coating the surface of my skin while deeply nourishing underneath - absolutely fantastic!
ConsIf you have extremely dry skin, you might find the finish a bit drying. Also, when you squeeze the dropper once, the amount seems slightly less than what you'd need for a full application.
