sm*******Dry SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsInner DrynessRecommendedMay 16, 2025A cost-effective Vitamin CE Ferulic Acid serum. The famous Sk-II product's CE Ferulic is way too expensive.. I used this product as an affordable alternative and it worked really well for me! It contains 20% pure Vitamin C as well, making it great for antioxidant and slow aging purposes. The finish is a bit sticky due to the high concentration of pure Vitamin C, but you have to sacrifice some stickiness for a lower concentration. So I just use it as is!!!!! This innovative concept helps delay my skin aging. Thank you. The finish may not be the best, but as mentioned above, it is due to the characteristics of the ingredients! When considering the skin, it can be endured. - ca*****Dehydrated SkinAcne SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityRecommendedMay 4, 2025
I'm currently using my nth bottle of this product. Among various vitamin C products, this is the one I've settled on. I believe antioxidant products are essential in your 30s, and I was specifically looking for one that combines pure vitamin C, ferulic acid, and vitamin E. Initially, I was hesitant because the brand name seemed a bit... well, small-time and childish, to be honest. However, the fact that it's manufactured by Kolmar Korea, and the ingredients and their concentrations are clearly listed, convinced me to make the purchase. In the end, I'm consistently using it because I'm satisfied with its absorption speed, how it applies, and the price. It's sold as 15ml, 1+1, but I essentially view it as paying for 30ml. Since vitamin C products need to be refrigerated after opening and used quickly within their shelf life, I think this packaging is quite suitable. I've tried many functional ampoules, but this one is the stickiest by far. Usually, when I finish my routine naturally with a cream, it absorbs into my hands without leaving a sticky residue. This one, however, always leaves my hands feeling sticky. Also, due to the nature of its ingredients, it has a very short shelf life, and storing it in the refrigerator is quite a hassle. I understand that vitamin C is known to be a tricky ingredient to work with. When you're unsure about a brand, it might be a good idea to check who the manufacturer is before making a purchase. - yi*******Dehydrated SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresDead Skin CellsRecommendedApr 23, 2025
Positive points: - I have dry skin, but when applied with the dropper, it glides on smoothly. - It absorbs quickly and leaves my skin feeling incredibly supple. - I've tried various vitamin products, but stubborn marks remained. However, with this innovative vitamin serum, those areas are starting to fade. The high concentration of pure vitamins seems to deliver rapid results. Room for improvement: - The quantity is small... But as with most high-quality, expensive cosmetics, I think the pure vitamin content at this price point is quite generous. - so********Normal SkinAcne SkinSebum/BlackheadsDark CirclesEnlarged PoresRecommendedApr 19, 2025
I bought this on a 1+1 deal from Naver and I've been using it ever since. I'm not sure if it's just me, but I use about 6 drops each time. I bought it in February and I'm still using it now in April, haha! It seemed a bit pricey for such a small bottle, so I've been using it sparingly, but it's genuinely good. Of course, being 20%, you really need to use it carefully. It does sting a bit, that's for sure... I also use The Ordinary and retinol. Fortunately, the retinol doesn't irritate me much, but The Ordinary really stings, so I have to alternate them carefully... haha. I apply this morning and night. They say you should apply Vitamin C in the morning too, so I'm trying not to skip a day. I'm diligently applying sunscreen and taking care of my skin, and I can definitely see my complexion has brightened! Before, my skin tone was uneven, I had dark circles, and my complexion was dull and dark. But these days, I can mix shade 10 and 15 concealers and it looks natural. Of course, I'm also using this with glutathione and niacinamide serums because I heard they're good. It's been two months since I started using it, and I plan to keep using it. I realized the importance of brightening after turning 25. I think anything rated over 4.6 on Hwahae is worth trying. There's nothing bad except for the stinging... but that's to be expected with 20%. If it didn't sting, it would probably be a fake Chinese product. Give it a try! Even if it stings, I recommend applying it right after toner or putting on a thin layer of another serum before using this. It's important to help it absorb into the skin quickly. And sunscreen... please apply it very carefully. If you don't apply it properly, the vitamin C could cause darkening. You really need to be careful in the morning, haha. Oh, and I also recommend looking into other brightening ingredients like glutathione or niacinamide to use together. It seems to be more effective when used in combination. And don't use as little as I do - use a bit more. Other people say they see their complexion brighten more noticeably when they apply it generously. - ai*******Dehydrated SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresDead Skin CellsRecommendedApr 11, 2025
It absorbs well and has excellent application. Suitable for all skin types. It might cause a tingling sensation when first used, so it's best to apply it over another product initially. - sh***Combination SkinRecommendedMar 22, 2025
I absolutely love this product! It's so gentle that I almost doubt if it really contains a high concentration of vitamin C. The skin feel is amazing. I wonder what kind of technology they use to achieve this. I definitely want to keep using it. I honestly can't think of anything negative to say. There are truly no downsides to this product. Always store your vitamin C products in the refrigerator. It prevents discoloration and feels refreshingly cool on the skin. I head straight to the fridge after cleansing my face! - sp************Dehydrated SkinAcne SkinAtopic SkinWrinkles/ElasticityRecommendedFeb 20, 2025
Recently, I've been noticing more blemishes and increased oiliness. After using Aestura cream for years, I decided to explore other skincare options. I heard that vitamin C serums help with brightening, blemishes, and anti-aging, so I bought this innovative, cost-effective serum. It's only been 3 days, but I've experienced zero irritation. I've been diligently applying it morning and night, even layering it twice. (It does sting a bit on fresh cuts, but it's tolerable.) Maybe it's just my imagination, but after using it the first night, my skin felt incredibly soft the next morning. My blemishes seemed calmer too? While it's too early to tell for sure, I'm really excited about the potential results! Refrigerator storage is a bit inconvenient, but I understand it's necessary given the ingredients. The sticky texture bothers me - I'm not sure if I'm just sensitive to textures, but I don't like how my hair sticks to my face. I don't think I'll be able to layer it twice. Apparently, some people get used to it though. On the first day with the vitamin C serum, I applied toner, then the serum, followed by a moisturizer. Since there was surprisingly little irritation, from the next morning, I started applying it right after washing my face. I read somewhere that vitamin C is hydrophilic, so it's best to leave your face slightly damp after cleansing before applying the serum. (Personally, I find it absorbs better when my skin is a bit moist, but be careful not to use too much water or it'll dilute the product.) In the morning, I finish with sunscreen. Apparently, it's more beneficial for antioxidant protection when applied in the morning rather than evening. Next, I plan to try retinol, and after that, I want to give The Hwahae Testers' recommended products a shot. - dc********Dry SkinSensitive SkinRecommendedFeb 14, 2025
I've seen great results with this, so I plan to stick with it unless something unexpected happens. After using so-called Vitamin C ampoules that didn't actually contain Vitamin C and only had niacin, using a real Vitamin C ampoule makes such a noticeable difference! It's quite irritating to my skin. It stings and causes blemishes, so I only use it occasionally when my skin is in good condition. - ll********Dehydrated SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresRednessRecommendedJan 15, 2025
It seems to tighten my pores and improve skin elasticity. I really like it! When my skin is in poor condition, it stings too much and becomes uncomfortable to apply. - ky*******Dry SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresJan 14, 2025
It seems to absorb well and have a nice texture. I think it would suit all skin types. On the third day of use, my face broke out badly. It stings! I mix it with an emulsion before applying.
