First off, the vitamin C content seems to help brighten my dull complexion. Within just a few days of use, my skin looked clearer and had a healthy glow. The stick format is hygienic as it doesn't get on your hands, and it's super convenient to reapply anytime, anywhere. It glides on smoothly, adhering well to the skin and absorbing nicely without feeling heavy or sticky - leaving a fresh finish. I focused on using it on areas prone to dryness like around my eyes, nasolabial folds, and forehead. Over time, I felt my skin becoming firmer and more elastic. There's no strong vitamin C scent, just a subtle fragrance that's not overwhelming. It's efficient for targeting both wrinkles and brightening simultaneously. The small size is perfect for popping in my purse for touch-ups throughout the day. I plan to keep using it consistently as I think it'll help fade blemishes with continued use.
ConsDepending on your skin type, it might feel a bit rich and potentially lead to some shine.

It contains vitamin C, so I'm using it to help brighten my dull under-eye area and areas with pigmentation. It's very moisturizing, and the lemon scent makes me feel refreshed. Unlike regular vitamin ampoules, you can use this during the day, which is super convenient!
ConsSince I'm so satisfied with the purple stick, this one feels more like a snack in comparison.
TipIf you're a fan of the blemish-targeting ampoule, try using this stick during the day.

As someone with dry skin, I actually appreciated this barrier-like sensation - Glides on smoothly without any stiffness - Didn't cause any blemishes
ConsAs mentioned above, it leaves a slight coating feeling after application, which might be a bit heavy for those with oily skin

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.ProsThe stick format is super convenient! Just twist it up like a lipstick and you're good to go. While it has a slightly matte feel when applied, it still goes on smoothly and feels nice and firm. Plus, it contains vitamin, which must be great for the skin! Haven't seen any wrinkle-reducing effects yet, though.
ConsThe amount is a bit on the small side. After two weeks of use, I've got about half left. I suspect it might be tricky to get the product out when you reach the end. There's a slight oiliness to it, so I'm not sure if it's suitable for those with oily skin.
TipI applied it as the final step in my skincare routine to my smile lines, between my brows, sides of my nose, and forehead wrinkles. In the morning, I noticed those typically dry areas seemed much less parched!

Oily skin types should be cautious though, as the rich formula might cause blemishes! I loved the lemon scent and was satisfied while applying it. It absorbs quickly and spreads easily, making application a breeze.
ConsFirst off, I'm disappointed by how little product you get. Since it's a balm, it melts with body heat and disappears so quickly after each use... It's gone before you know it!

I tend to get extremely dry skin during seasonal changes. In weather like this, it can feel a bit icky and bothersome to apply moisturizer with your hands after some time has passed. But with this, you can just glide it on easily - so convenient! While I can't say it's completely non-sticky since it's a balm type, it does spread evenly without excessive stickiness. The refreshing lemon scent puts me in a good mood every time I apply it!
ConsWhen applied thickly, I noticed tiny bumps appearing slightly! If you have combination or oily skin, it might be best to use it sparingly, focusing on dry areas. I keep mine by the bedside and just dab it lightly on areas that feel tight.

You just glide it on, no mess on your hands, and it's perfect for targeting specific areas. The subtle lemon-vitamin scent is delightful and uplifting. Despite being packed with nourishing ingredients, I was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't overly rich - it strikes just the right balance of nutrition for the skin. Even with my blemish-prone and super sensitive skin, this product worked wonderfully for me.
ConsGiven the nature of this product, it's challenging to see immediate, dramatic results. While not a major drawback, I feel you'd need to consistently use at least two or three tubes before noticing significant changes.

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.ProsThis is my first time trying a stick-type balm, and I'm impressed! It glides on smoothly without any tugging, almost like it's gently skating across my skin. You can roll it in circles or swipe it quickly - both ways work great for easy application. The product claims to have brightening effects, and after diligently applying it to my under-eye area, C-zone, and areas with dark spots and freckles, I feel like they've become slightly less noticeable. While they haven't completely disappeared, there's definitely an improvement! The name itself includes 'vitamin', and it really feels like I'm feeding my skin a hearty dose of vitamins. The scent is citrusy, reminiscent of lemons, which lifts my mood every time I apply it. With the changing seasons, my skin has suddenly become extremely dry, but this product leaves it feeling hydrated and applies beautifully.
ConsI couldn't find any downsides, but I hope this product gains more popularity!
TipI especially recommend this stick-type product for people like me who have combination skin - oily in the T-zone (nose, forehead, and chin) but dry on the cheeks. It's great because you can easily target and care for just the dry areas.

But after seeing the Vitamin C Ampoule Balm, I realized that being able to manage blemishes during the day definitely has a calming effect, especially on days when I'm not wearing makeup. The stick format means you don't have to worry about it when carrying it around - that's definitely a plus for this product! Despite containing vitamin C or ascorbic acid, it hasn't caused any particular issues for my skin so far. I mainly use liquid or cream skincare products, so I found it helpful to use this balm texture as the final step. Unfortunately, after about a week of use, I couldn't see any noticeable fading of blemishes or other issues, so it's hard to draw a definitive conclusion about its effectiveness. But I plan to keep using it consistently! Overall, even though I haven't seen any dramatic effects yet, I'm very satisfied with how it feels - the smooth finish and subtle citrus scent are lovely. This is usually one of the main reasons I continue using a skincare product, and it's why I plan to keep using the Vitamin C Ampoule Balm!
Cons📎 The balm texture is trickier to handle than liquid/cream formulations The balm formula in a stick container definitely makes it convenient to use not just after cleansing, but also when you're out. However, because I have extremely sensitive skin and try to avoid friction, I don't apply the stick directly to my skin. Instead, I rub it on my fingers first, then pat it gently onto my skin. So in my case, I can't fully take advantage of the benefits of the stick and balm format, which is a bit disappointing.
TipFor sensitive skin, rub the product on your fingers first, then gently pat it onto your skin for absorption!

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.ProsThe stick format makes it super convenient and easy to apply! Since it doesn't get on your hands, it's great to keep by your bedside for nighttime use or for quick application when you're in a rush in the morning. (Just note, it leaves quite a shiny finish... very glowy!) When you open the cap, there's a pleasant, subtle citrusy scent of lemon/yuzu. If you have oily skin, it might be best to focus on areas with dark spots or areas of concern!
ConsWhile it's easy to apply, it doesn't feel like it absorbs very well. It's more like it's coating the skin! Although it says it can be used morning and night, it's not suitable for use under makeup. Foundation doesn't absorb and tends to pill. Also, the amount seems a bit small for covering the entire face.
TipAfter applying, gently massaging it with the warmth of your hands seems to help it absorb a bit better.
