The product shows promising initial results for treating small blemishes, but its long-term effectiveness and value for money are questionable. It may be best suited for those needing quick, short-term solutions for skin concerns.

At first, the results were impressive, but over time, the effectiveness seemed to diminish. I'm not sure if that's normal or if it's due to my skin changing from stress. For those seeking immediate results on small blemishes, I highly recommend it! However, I was disappointed to see how quickly the product amount visibly decreased after just a few uses (indicating a small quantity). It's not the most cost-effective option out there.

I was skeptical due to all the advertising, but after seeing many people experience positive results, I decided to give it a try. Amazingly, those stubborn little blemishes that nothing else could remove started to gradually disappear within 2-3 days of application! While I'm not sure about its effect on skin texture, it's incredibly effective for those pesky small bumps.

Here's a personal tip I discovered while using the Bankor Bakuchiol Serum: make sure your skin is well-hydrated before applying the serum!

After cleansing, I use a toner or hydrating essence to prep my skin. When my skin is slightly damp, I apply the Bakuchiol serum. This method helps the serum spread more smoothly and absorb better. Since it's a fast-absorbing product, applying it to very dry skin might make it feel like it's sitting on top, so I recommend hydrating your skin first.

For areas with more prominent acne marks, I apply a small additional amount and let it absorb. I've been using this method consistently in my evening routine, and I've noticed the marks fading more quickly. After applying it all over, I just dab a bit extra on the marked areas!

One more thing! When using it in the morning, always pair it with sunscreen. While Bakuchiol is gentler than retinol, it's still involved in skin regeneration, which can make your skin more sensitive to sunlight, so sun protection is crucial.

By adding these few steps, you'll likely see even better results from the product!

The first thing I noticed was that the price feels a bit high for the amount you get. While the texture is smooth and spreads well, you need to use a fair amount each time, so it seems to run out faster than expected. Using it morning and evening daily means one bottle doesn't last very long, which might make the cost of repurchasing feel a bit burdensome.

I started using the Bankor Bakuchiol Serum on June 13th, and I'm truly satisfied with the results so far. Let's start with how it applies - the texture is incredibly smooth and causes no irritation when it touches the skin, making it perfect for someone with sensitive skin like me. Even on days when my skin was particularly sensitive or when I had blemishes, it went on gently without any stinging or redness, which made a great first impression. After application, it absorbs lightly into the skin without any stickiness, blending seamlessly with other skincare products when layering without any pilling.

The absorption is also excellent. Initially, it feels slightly moist when dispensed onto your hand, but once spread on the face, it absorbs quickly, leaving the skin feeling hydrated and comfortable. I've used it both morning and night, and it's especially great for daily use in the morning before makeup as it's not heavy at all.

What I'm most satisfied with after consistent use is the gradual fading of acne marks. Noticeably red spots started to soften after a week or two, and my overall complexion seemed more even, allowing me to see the effects firsthand. Of course, it's not a miracle product that changes everything overnight, but the natural, gradual changes made me confident in continuing to use it.

I think this product could work for any skin type. It provides sufficient hydration for dry skin without being too heavy for oily skin, making it a versatile option that should suit most people well. I especially recommend this serum for those concerned with blemishes or skin marks like myself.

The amount is just too small, unfortunately. I've been using it for about a month, and I feel like I've already gone through half the bottle.

It's so hydrating! Glides on smoothly! I noticed my dark spots gradually fading!

저녁루틴으로 마지막 크림이나 로션대신 바르면 다음날 피부 겁나 좋아요.

솔직히 미백,주름개선 쪽으로는 1도 효과 못봤어요

쓴지 2개월 정도 됬는데 한달 동안은 별 효과 없어서 실망했는데 꾸준히 써주니깐 이마에 있는 좁쌀들이 정신차려보니 다 사라져있음, 끈적하지도 않아서 끈적한거 질색이다 하면 추천추천

After application, it feels excessively oily on the skin. The rich texture seems to be causing more blemishes rather than helping.

I bought this during the June Olive Young sale, and with all the buzz around it, I had high hopes. Many reviews claimed it was effective for either uneven texture or small bumps, but unfortunately, I didn't see results for either. Given the hefty price tag, I really wished it had worked. It's disappointing that it didn't live up to the hype.

I only use the Bancohr Bakuchiol Serum at night. I've found that consistent use during times when the skin is less prone to irritation leads to cumulative benefits. My routine involves applying a thin layer of this serum after toning, waiting about 5 minutes, then following up with a hydrating cream. This method leaves my skin feeling incredibly soft the next morning. I don't use it during the day, focusing instead on intensive nighttime care, which works best for me. For those with super sensitive skin, using it every other day can provide benefits without causing irritation.

While the ingredients are excellent and non-irritating, the packaging and brand image are a bit too simple and don't really stand out. Compared to the trendy, aesthetically pleasing products out there, it feels a bit plain. Also, the dropper-type bottle can be tricky to use as the liquid is quite thin and tends to drip if you tilt it even slightly. It's not the most user-friendly application. Lastly, considering it's a firming serum with a somewhat premium price tag, you might hesitate to repurchase if you don't see dramatic results quickly.

The Bancohr Bakuchiol Serum is a real game-changer, featuring bakuchiol, the famous retinol alternative. Its biggest advantage is the ability to boost skin elasticity without irritation. I couldn't use retinol because it kept making my skin red and flaky, but this serum was genuinely gentle and worked wonders for me. When applied, you can feel it refining your skin texture, and after consistent use for a few days, my complexion became noticeably smoother. The fragrance isn't overwhelming, and it absorbs well, making it perfect for nighttime use. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a gentle firming serum.

This product works hard to clear up minor skin issues quickly. While it's great for small blemishes, those with more severe acne might need something stronger. The lightweight formula absorbs well, but some might find the texture takes getting used to.

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to have much effect on larger, inflamed blemishes.
The absorption can be a bit slippery, which might be hit or miss for some users.

It really works wonders! Just two days after applying, my tiny blemishes started to fade. By day five, they had completely vanished.
The texture isn't sticky at all, making it a pleasure to apply.

This serum works hard to maintain your skin's oil and moisture balance, making it an ideal choice for those struggling with deep dryness or combination dehydrated skin. Its lightweight texture absorbs well, leaving your complexion hydrated without feeling sticky. While it may be a bit rich for those with very oily skin, it's a game-changer for dry and combination skin types. Not only does it provide intense hydration, but it also helps in reducing the appearance of small blemishes. Despite its many benefits, the only drawback is the quantity provided for the price point. Nevertheless, the quality of this serum makes it a worthwhile investment for your skincare routine.

The only downside is that the amount you get seems a bit small for the price. Apart from that, it's truly an excellent serum.

This serum strikes the perfect balance between oil and moisture! It's fantastic at combating deep dryness, feeling more like an ultra-lightweight moisturizer. As someone with dry skin, I didn't find it too rich, but those with oily skin might notice it a bit more. By boosting skin hydration, it even helped reduce my small blemishes. I'd highly recommend this for those with dry or combination dehydrated skin.

As someone with super sensitive skin prone to blemishes, I appreciate that this serum works hard to even out my complexion without causing irritation. It's become an essential part of my daily skincare routine, helping to balance my combination dehydrated skin. The cream texture provides a nice glow without feeling sticky or rich, making it perfect for layering under other products. While it's a bit pricey, a little goes a long way in addressing pigmentation issues and promoting an overall healthier-looking complexion.

The price point feels a bit high compared to the amount of product you get, which is slightly disappointing.

I've been using this famous blemish serum specifically for some pigmentation around my chin area. After trying various brands' blemish serums, I decided to give this one a shot since it had better reviews. Unlike other serums with a watery consistency, this one has a cream texture that absorbs well into the skin. Though I haven't been using it for long, I've noticed my pigmentation seems to have lightened a bit. It's hard to tell if it's due to this product or the previous one I was using, but I'm seeing positive results.

While the product seems to work well for some skin concerns, its effectiveness may vary depending on individual skin types and specific issues. It appears to be more successful in addressing texture and small blemishes rather than more stubborn acne scars.

I actually bought this because I heard it was effective for acne rather than just pores, but it didn't have much impact on acne scars.

After using it for a month, I noticed a significant reduction in the tiny bumps on my forehead! My skin texture also looks much improved.

It appears to enlarge pores and doesn't provide good hydration. When applied, my skin feels even tighter. It doesn't seem to be a very good serum.

There's not much to praise. Don't be fooled by Instagram ads. It seems to make pores look even larger.
