I primarily use this in my evening skincare routine. The lightweight liquid formula absorbs quickly into the skin. As I have dry skin, I reinforce it with an oilier product at the emulsion cream stage, which keeps my skin from feeling parched. After application, it tends to leave a rather sticky residue, so I recommend using it only in the evening. Be careful not to get it in your eyes as it can cause a tingling sensation. I'm carefully applying it while avoiding the eye area. - ia******Oily SkinSebum/BlackheadsEnlarged PoresRecommendedMar 30, 2025
After using just 6 drops on each cheek every morning for a month, my skin became firmer and the excess oil I used to have has noticeably reduced. When you first apply the product to your skin, there's a scent similar to aged meat for about 10 seconds, so I hold my breath while applying it. - ma**********Combination SkinSensitive SkinRecommendedFeb 2, 2025
🔹 Price: Purchased for 11,650 won along with a niacinamide ampoule 🔹 Scent: Has a nutty aroma reminiscent of sesame oil or cooking oil 🔹 The texture feels slightly oily with a hint of tingling, so I applied it only to my cheeks, avoiding the T-zone. The formula isn't heavy and while it seems to sit on the skin at first, it absorbs quickly over time. 🔹 Pure Vitamin C: Using a slightly acidic toner or foam cleanser can enhance absorption. For maximum effectiveness, apply a moisturizer 5 minutes after the Vitamin C serum! 🔹 Important to note: Always apply sunscreen when going out, it may leave yellow stains on pillowcases, and should be used diligently within 2 months 🔹 When I first used it, I felt some irritation on my forehead and chin, and it seemed too oily. It was fine when I only applied it to my cheeks Ingredients that brighten the skin and make it appear smooth and translucent: - Brightening (Pure Vitamin C) For post-acne hyperpigmentation and freckles: - Whitening (Niacinamide) - ch*********Oily SkinAcne SkinSebum/BlackheadsInner DrynessEnlarged PoresRecommendedDec 29, 2024
After using a whole bottle for a few months, I noticed my complexion brightened a bit. Of course, for more noticeable results, you'd need to use it more consistently. Right now, it's just a subtle change that only I can see... I wouldn't recommend this for those with lots of blemishes or super sensitive skin due to potential irritation! Also, the short two-month shelf life is a downside, as you need to use it all up within that time... (I actually continued using it for a few months past the expiration date without any major issues) When applying in the morning, it's absolutely essential to follow up with sunscreen or UV protection! - tm*****Dehydrated SkinSensitive SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsDark CirclesInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresNov 19, 2024
The biggest advantage is its affordable price point. It also seems to have a high vitamin content. However... it's quite irritating. The next day, my face was covered in red spots. - rn********Oily SkinSebum/BlackheadsEnlarged PoresRecommendedOct 19, 2024
After applying the ampoule, I feel like my complexion looks a bit brighter than before! Above all, the price is so reasonable that I'll likely keep using it! While there's a slight tingling sensation on my skin and it has a faint egg-like scent, I'll probably continue using it due to its affordability and effectiveness! - ki**********Dry SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityRecommendedOct 7, 2024
There's a significant tingling sensation right after application. I've used other vitamin products and retinol before, but this one has a unique tingling feeling. I think it's better than products with no irritation and no effect... I'm using it right after my morning cleanse, and it absorbs well into the skin. Currently, I can't pinpoint exactly what's changed, but my skin condition has improved. Extracted milia scars heal faster, and my complexion has brightened. Especially when I wear makeup, my skin tone and texture look flawless. My forehead is smoother, and blackheads on my nose are disappearing... I'm not sure if this is the effect of vitamin C, retinol, or other products like melatonin cream or active serums - I've been applying so many things, it's hard to tell -_- Since vitamin C should be used within 2 months, I'm trying to quickly use up affordable products like Biom Activate, Dermafactory, Hyggee, and COSRX. I haven't noticed any significant effects on age spots or freckles. And the smell... It's really not a pleasant scent, even as a joke. It smells like rancid sesame oil mixed with processed meat. I'm not particularly sensitive to smells, but for those who are, this could be a major drawback. Don't forget your sunscreen! - ch********Dry SkinAcne SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsDark CirclesRecommendedOct 4, 2024
Noticeably improves blemishes, especially effective on freckles The high concentration can cause a slight tingling sensation, but it doesn't lead to redness or other issues, so I'm using it without major problems Highly recommend alternating this with retinol for day and night use! - fl*********Dry SkinAcne SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsDark CirclesInner DrynessEnlarged PoresRecommendedSep 16, 2024
I bought this product after hearing that vitamin C is great for skin brightening, and I've been using it since! Texture: It has a low-viscosity liquid feel, but it's still a bit sticky when applied. The color is a light yellow. The scent is similar to vitamin C tablets, and it lingers on your face after application. This might be a love-it-or-hate-it factor for some people. Effectiveness: While I didn't notice a dramatic brightening effect, I do feel like my complexion looks somewhat more radiant. That's why I'm continuing to use it consistently. Caution: I'd advise against using this when you have a lot of blemishes, as vitamin C can irritate the skin. Especially after extracting blemishes, it can really sting... I wish I hadn't learned that the hard way! The scent is more off-putting than I expected, so I'd only recommend this to those who don't mind strong fragrances. Since vitamin C is sensitive to light, prolonged exposure can cause the product to turn noticeably yellow. Be sure to store it in a dark place or in the refrigerator to maintain its effectiveness. - h6********Dry SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsDark CirclesEnlarged PoresRednessRecommendedAug 30, 2024
I was genuinely amazed to see my complexion brightening in real-time It oxidizes quickly, so if you don't use it within 2 months, it turns noticeably brown
