  Pros

  As someone with acne-prone skin, I developed whiteheads after using a tea tree moisturizer for my pustules. I bought this product hoping for a solution. While it doesn't make existing whiteheads disappear, it prevents new ones from forming after extracting the stubborn ones. I apply this serum after toner and before moisturizer, and it works wonders! I've been to dermatologists before, but they only extracted without preventing new blemishes. Since finding this serum, I haven't had new breakouts - now I'm just left with some scars.

  Cons

  This serum is definitely thinner compared to others. It runs easily and feels light after application. As someone with combination dehydrated skin who can't use products that clog pores or leave an oily residue, I found it suitable. However, those looking for a richer texture might be disappointed. Due to its lightweight nature, I sometimes applied it 2-3 times depending on my skin's condition. It's a bit pricey for how quickly you go through it. I switched to a more substantial toner from the same Hepblue line and reduced my serum usage to make it more cost-effective.

  Tip

  I used to use the entire Hepblue salmon line - toner, serum, and cream. The cream didn't suit me, and the toner was too light for winter. Now my routine is: La Roche-Posay Effaclar H Toner, Salmon Serum, and Hanyul Yuja Sleeping Mask. There's debate about whether to extract whiteheads or not. In my experience, whether it's a whitehead or a pustule, it's caused by sebum trapped under the skin, so extraction was necessary for me. After extracting, I mix Ecnon cream (for pustules, not whiteheads) with Madecassol powder and apply it to bare skin. Then I do my skincare routine and reapply the mixture thickly. The next day, there's still a mark, but it's not red and has subsided significantly. It's a slow process, but after repeating this method, all my spread-out whiteheads disappeared, and even the small bumps on the surface vanished after 3 months! If you're struggling with combination dehydrated skin and get whiteheads from even slightly pore-clogging products, give this method a try!
