As I have dry and sensitive skin, I can't use just any product, but this one fits me really well without any trouble, so I've been using it for more than 6 bottles! Other lightweight serums tend to become dry after absorption, but this product is lightweight and absorbs well, yet stays moisturized without dryness, so I'm really enjoying using it! My dehydration has improved a lot, and I haven't had any trouble, so I plan to keep using it. I recommend it for sensitive skin as well.
ConsI use a generous amount at once, so I go through a bottle quickly.
TipIt's best to use it as a step between toner and lotion!

Also, using it before makeup helps refine the skin texture and makes the skin look really beautiful. The product is gentle, so it seems to suit all skin types well. It's not overly oily, so I'd recommend it for oily skin too. However, the moisturizing power may be a bit weak, so it might be difficult to use it alone during seasonal changes/winter.
Cons▪ Moisturizing Power: While it feels moisturizing at first, the dryness doesn't completely go away. The moisturizing effect doesn't last long, so I've been using a moisturizer after this serum.

May be slightly lacking for dry skin types, but could work well for oily skin or in the summer. - Ingredients are very gentle and mild. The transparent glass packaging is great as you can see the product level at a glance. It seems like I'll be able to use it up completely. The pump dispenser makes it easy to control the amount and convenient to use. It's marketed as a whitening and anti-aging product, but I'm not sure about the anti-aging effects. It seems to have a mild whitening effect though.
Cons- I've heard that products with carrot often have an unpleasant scent. I'm not sure if that's just how carrot products normally smell, but the pungent aroma is a no-go! That's why I had high expectations, but it has a green tea-like smell instead. At least the scent fades quickly.
TipSince the texture is runny, you'll need to apply it quickly after pumping to prevent it from dripping.

The scent is a mix of 🪵 woody and 🥕 carrot, which is quite subtle. Even those sensitive to scents can use this product as the scent is very light. As someone who uses ampoules frequently, I think the texture of this product is the most ideal(?) - not too runny and not too thick, just right. The spreadability is also good. It absorbs quickly and leaves a refreshing finish. What I liked: 1. It applies well! At first I didn't realize, but the finish is so good that there's no issue with makeup caking. Those who do light skincare before makeup will find this sufficient on its own 🫶 2. The skin looks transparent, like it's full of vitamins It's hard to describe, but after using this, my skin looks transparent, like I've been taking good care of it or visiting a dermatologist regularly. There's a luminous, glowing effect that's quite visible.
ConsDry skin types may find this a bit drying to use on its own in the winter. Also, the amount in the bottle is a bit less than expected. Other than that, I didn't notice any obvious downsides!! The price being a bit high is also a con, though.

And it has 8-fold hyaluronic acid An essential ingredient for someone like me who has dry skin The application is also smooth It gives a glowing effect and is absorbed well over time, leaving a glossy finish Unlike other serums, it doesn't have an immediate sinking-in feeling That's why it gives a glowing complexion Even when using just the serum, there is no dryness
ConsThe scent is not great ㅠ It smells like a water-based ointment I was worried it might have an odd carrot oil-like smell since it contains carrot, but in my opinion, it smells like a water-based ointment
TipIt would be good to use on its own, but since the autumn wind is scary, slather on a generous amount of a nourishing cream or a moisturizing cream

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🥕 Product Introduction ✔︎ Made with bamboo water instead of purified water, it soothes the skin and balances the oil-moisture balance. ✔︎ Carrot seed oil and carrot extract nourish the skin, making it healthy and radiant. ✔︎ 8-layer hyaluronic acid deeply penetrates rough and tired skin, creating a dewy, moisturized complexion. 🥕 User Review As described, the product is made with bamboo water instead of purified water, which soothes the skin and balances the oil-moisture balance. When I pumped and applied it to my skin, there was a fragrant aroma, perhaps of Bulgarian or bamboo water. The formula is moist but has a certain viscosity, so it doesn't drip off the skin. After use, I felt a lasting moisturized sensation, and the next day my makeup seemed to sit better on my skin.
ConsI thought the fragrance was fine, but it may be divisive as many products these days are unscented.
TipAfter cleansing in the morning and evening, use a toner to refine your skin texture, then apply a serum. Once the serum has fully absorbed, follow up with a moisturizer. Those with dry skin should be able to achieve a nourished, dewy complexion this way!

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☆ Skin Type: Dry (Seasonal Redness and Stubborn Acne) ☆ Usage Period: 2 weeks ☆ Usage Method: Apply toner and then immediately I first tried applying it right after cleansing and toning my skin. The texture was like a moisturizing serum, but I could feel a slight oiliness. Unlike other moisturizing serums, this one contains oil, so it felt like a thin coating was left on the skin after application. The application was smooth and comfortable, and it absorbed quickly, penetrating deep into the skin. From the 3rd day, I felt my skin surface became smoother. The best part was that I could apply it without any trouble. ■ Overall Evaluation■ Texture: ☆☆☆☆ Absorption: ☆☆☆☆☆ Moisture: ☆☆☆ Oiliness: ☆☆ Hydration: ☆☆☆ I've heard that carrot seed oil is good for dry skin, and I'm grateful for the Hwahae Trial Reviewer experience.
ConsCompared to a moisturizing serum containing carrot seed oil, 《the longevity seemed to be lacking.》 Immediately after application, the oily ingredients made it feel moisturizing, but the longevity was similar to other moisturizing serums. ◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇ It was disappointing that I had to apply it about 2 times to really feel the moisturizing effect.
TipIt would be good to layer the product 2 times after applying the toner. Mixing it with a moisturizer or an oil-based cream would also be a good idea. Mixing a small amount with a matte foundation can give a nice glow to the skin.

In reality, it's not overpowering or bothersome at all. I personally think it might be because the bamboo water is used instead of regular water, blending with the bamboo fragrance. I was a bit worried that the serum-like transparent formula might feel heavy, but it absorbed well without any issues. For the first 3 days or so, I only used it once a day just in case, but the formula worked well, so I've been using it morning and night since then. It helps with dryness and I haven't had any major issues, so unless something changes, I plan to continue using it.
ConsI usually only lightly apply my basic skincare at night, but if the temperature drops a bit more, I think using this product alone might be a bit difficult.

However, this serum didn't cause any major troubles. As a vegan serum, it seems to be a gentle formula. ☑️Fragrance With the main ingredients being bamboo and carrot, the serum has a slight herbal scent, similar to woody notes. The fragrance gives a refreshing, healthy feeling. ☑️Price vs. Volume The retail price is 35,000 won for 50g, which feels a bit expensive considering the volume. ☑️Lastly, the packaging is very luxurious and beautiful, making me reluctant to throw away the empty bottle. The carrot-shaped grip tag that came with the serum is also super cute!!!!
Cons-The texture, while not heavy, may feel a bit drying for dry skin types. It could be recommended as a summer serum for oily or combination skin. -The fragrance may be polarizing and not suit everyone's preferences.

I was quite worried that it might be too oily, but I don't feel that way, and it absorbs quite well! I feel like my skin is getting brighter, so I'm using it consistently for now. And this cute grip tok..🧡🥕 It's so adorable.
ConsNo matter how much I look, it's not available. I wish they would just stock it at Olive Young.
