First, the vitamin C ingredient seems to help brighten the dull skin tone. Within a few days of use, my skin looked clearer and had a healthier glow. The stick type is hygienic as it doesn't get on my hands, and it's convenient to apply anytime, anywhere. The smooth application blends well into the skin, leaving a moisturized and refreshed finish without feeling heavy or sticky. I focused on using it on the dry areas around my eyes, laugh lines, and forehead, and over time, my skin felt firmer and more elastic. There is no strong vitamin C scent, just a subtle fragrance, making it easy to use. It's efficient as it can address wrinkles and brightening simultaneously, and the compact size is great for carrying in my pouch for touch-ups. I plan to continue using it as I believe it will also help reduce my blemishes.
ConsYour skin type may produce excess oil, leading to a shiny or greasy appearance.

It's easy to carry around, and my dark circles seem to be lightening.
ConsThere is a slight oily feeling, so it seems a bit greasy. The price is a bit higher than expected, which is disappointing.
TipThe yellow color is from the vitamins, so you can apply it to the T-zone and under the eyes.

Just open the lid and swipe it on like a lipstick. The application is slightly matte, but it still applies smoothly and evenly. It also contains vitamins, so it's likely better for the skin! I haven't noticed any wrinkle improvement effects yet, though.
ConsThe amount is small. After using it for 2 weeks, I think about half is left. Towards the end, it doesn't come out as easily when I twist the bottom. It has a slight oily feel, so I'm not sure if it would be suitable for those with oily skin.
TipWhen I applied it to the crow's feet, glabella, sides of the nose, and forehead wrinkle areas after my entire skincare routine, the dry areas were significantly reduced in the morning.

From my experience using various vitamin products from brands like Goodal, Missha, Nature Republic, and iHerb, the key point with vitamin products is that they aren't too irritating for me and the prices are reasonable enough to use consistently! In that sense, Missha and iHerb products have good value-for-money👍 *I want to generally brighten my complexion *I also want to provide overall moisture ➡️ Recommend Missha/iHerb vitamin ampoules *I'm worried the overall formula might be too irritating, so I just want to apply it locally on my blemish areas to test it out *I want to try introducing vitamins to see if they suit me. I'll give it a try to see how I adapt *I'll just apply it on my neck wrinkles ➡️ Recommend Missha vitamin stick
ConsIt feels a bit oily to use in the morning? I understand the whitening, but I'm not sure about the firming effects. (This is something I'll have to see after using it for a week...)

Cons🙁 Since it's a night-type product, it may clog pores if applied to the pore area! Use it only on dry areas! 🙁 It has an oily texture, so it can't be used before or after makeup. Apply it only on bare skin! 🙁 The finish is a bit slippery.

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.ProsI recently received this product when my skin was feeling dry, with my eye area and forehead feeling stiff, and the laugh lines around my mask seeming more pronounced. As expected from the packaging, box, product design, and name, it has a very lemony, refreshing scent. While some may not like the artificial fragrance, I personally really enjoyed it. The outer part is a tone & elasticity balm, and the yellow inner part is a spot balm. Being a balm-type, it applied smoothly and evenly. It gave a subtle glow while seamlessly coating any rough patches. While commuting in the cold wind, my skin felt less stiff. I also liked that the packaging doesn't get messy on the hands when using it.
ConsOne downside is that while it does give a coated feeling, it feels more like just the surface is being wrapped rather than fully filling in. And with the added moisture from wearing a mask, my face ended up feeling a bit oily. So after using it for a day or two, I only applied it at night after that. It's stated that it can be used throughout the day, but that seems a bit excessive. Also, the ingredients are noted as potentially irritating for sensitive skin, so I was hesitant to apply it too liberally.
TipIt's better to apply this at night before bed rather than in the morning before going to work.

The application is much more moisturizing than other multipurpose balms I've used. After applying, it leaves a slightly dewy finish~ On these dry days, it feels great to apply a little on my dry cheeks^^
ConsIt's moisturizing, but has a bit of a shiny finish, so it might be a bit burdensome to reapply frequently when you're out and about🤣 But if you use it at home and just apply a little when you're out, it's fine~!

The stick format is convenient and doesn't get on my hands when applying, which I liked. Especially since I'm cautious about ingredients in cosmetics due to my sensitive skin, the fact that it's free of fragrances and harmful substances was great. I didn't experience any breakouts or irritation after using it. While the oily texture may not be suitable for year-round use for oily skin types, I think it would be great for dry areas in the winter. As for whitening or blemish improvement effects, I'll need to use it for a month or two to see the results.
Cons💙Cons - The amount is small and the price is high - There is a slight oiliness that may not be ideal for oily skin - My skin felt a bit shiny
Tip⭐To avoid the shininess, I applied only a small amount before bedtime and wiped it off with a pad in the morning. I think it would work better for dry skin types rather than oily.

ConsThe amount is a lot but it wears down quickly It's moisturizing but when you sleep, a lot of oil comes up and you have to remove it with a cleanser Not recommended for oily skin I wanted to apply it only to the under-eye area or dark spots, but the application area is a bit large, so you can't touch it up precisely
TipIt seems like it would be great to apply to dry areas like the under-eye region^^

Ever since I won the Hwahae trial, this is the cosmetic I've been using the most diligently. First of all, the pigmentation and blemish care was the one I liked the most. Recently, I started using a white mask, and dark spots began to appear around my eyes. I used to apply a prescription-strength dark spot cream, but I had to use it only at night and the price range was a bit high, so there were some limitations. But with this product, I can just swipe it on anytime, day or night, and it's been great. While the results aren't dramatic, the dark spots do seem to have diminished a bit. I think it would be good to use it preventatively as well to stop any new spots from forming. It also helps improve skin tone and elasticity, so there's no reason not to use it. Since I have a rather dark complexion, I've been using functional products with whitening ingredients. And since I'm quite lazy sometimes, I even forget to apply lotion, but this is easy to apply and it takes care of the hydration too. The product name is Vita C, so the citrusy scent is quite refreshing. The scent is not overpowering, just a subtle, pleasant fragrance.
ConsBeing a stick-type balm product, it does feel a bit greasy and takes some time to absorb into the skin.
