The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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.ProsFirst and foremost, I'd like to express my gratitude to Hwahae and Pycore for selecting me as one of The Hwahae Testers! Texture - I absolutely love the texture! As someone who doesn't enjoy products that are too rich or sticky, I'm pleased to say this one absorbs into the skin smoothly. After application, a few gentle pats are all it takes for the product to sink in without any stickiness. Hydration - This is actually one of my top priorities! With winter upon us, those of us with super sensitive dry skin need to be extra cautious about dryness. Just as the product claims, the hydration is truly exceptional! Unlike some products that feel moist upon application but lack a refreshing finish, this one provides the perfect balance of hydration without any stickiness. Deep Hydration - Similar to the hydration point, for someone with dry skin like me, this winter weather is a constant battle for deep moisture. You know that feeling when your skin feels soft on the surface but somehow tight underneath? I'm sure those with dry skin can relate. That's why I usually apply toner twice, followed by emulsion, serum, and moisturizer. However, with the Blue Biome Repair Serum, I found that just the serum was enough if I wasn't planning to be outside for long. The deep hydration is surprisingly good! Packaging - The product comes in a dropper bottle rather than a squeeze tube or pump. While I initially found it a bit inconvenient, I grew to appreciate it. It's not only hygienic but also gives the feeling of using a special product.
ConsIn terms of the product's functionality, I don't have any major complaints. The only slight drawback might be that it feels a bit pricey for the amount you get. However, when you look at the ingredients, it becomes more understandable!
TipGiven it's winter, I apply a thick layer of toner twice before using the serum. For my nighttime routine, I soak a cotton pad generously with toner, leave it on for 10 minutes, then follow up with the Blue Biome serum. It leaves my skin feeling so hydrated!

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 hydration is great and it absorbs well, which made me realize the particles must be small. My skin happened to be acting up at the time, so I only added this product to my basic skincare routine. I was really pleased to feel my skin improving! My deep dryness improved significantly, and since my skin's issues seemed to stem from an imbalance in oil and moisture, adding this product seemed to replenish the hydration. As a result, my blemishes noticeably reduced and my skin texture improved too.
ConsThe scent wasn't bothersome, and it actually helped clear up my blemishes, so there's no reason not to recommend it. Oh, except the price is a bit... Well, these days there are so many cosmetics with good effectiveness and reasonable prices... If it weren't for that, everything else about it is great.
TipYou might find the pumping mechanism a bit unusual when you try it, and it could be difficult to control the amount if you apply it directly to your face. That's why I just pump once to get the product out, then squeeze it all onto my palm and pat it on. It's the most comfortable method!

As a skincare enthusiast, I've always been disappointed by the high water content in most liquid skincare products. However, I was thrilled with this product's ingredients list, which doesn't rely heavily on purified water! Despite its thin consistency, it provides excellent hydration! There's a slight oily film, which might be particularly beneficial for those with dry skin. I noticed an improvement in my skin texture. Even with my super sensitive skin, it didn't cause any blemishes and suited me well.
ConsWhen I applied this product before my holy grail La*** B5+ balm, it caused the balm to dissolve... I'm not sure why this happens. Could it be an ingredient conflict? Another downside is the high price point. While it's understandable given the quality ingredients, I didn't feel the effects justified the cost. I might need to use it consistently to see more results, especially regarding pore changes.
TipAt first, I was confused about how to open the product! Just keep turning it to the right to open.

There's no noticeable scent. I typically layer 2-3 light serums, and this one provides just the right amount of hydration for those who prefer this method. It works well in a layering routine.
ConsI didn't experience any blemishes. The opaque packaging makes it difficult to see how much product is left, which is slightly disappointing. However, the hygienic design where the dropper button pops up when you open the cap is a nice feature.

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 best part about using this serum was its 'lightweight texture and matte finish.' [Skin Type] I have skin that feels dry all year round, and now that I'm pregnant, my skin has become even drier! [Texture] The Different C serum has a watery, lightweight texture. -> It's so light that I wondered if it would actually provide hydration. When testing, I noticed its quick absorption and matte finish, which made me think it would be perfect as the final step in a skincare routine. I'll explain why below :) [Nighttime Skincare Routine] Toner pad -> Mist (3 times) -> Protein or nourishing serum -> Different C serum The serum I usually use has a heavier texture and feels sticky, but finishing with the Different C serum maintained the hydration without any stickiness. Instead, it left my skin feeling matte, which meant I could sleep comfortably without dust or hair sticking to my face after my nighttime skincare routine :)
ConsI carefully looked for drawbacks while using it. I came up with two points: 1. Personally, I think this serum alone might not be enough to combat dryness in the dead of winter. After various tests, I found that because it absorbs so quickly and lightly into the skin, it left me feeling a bit dry. * However, even though it felt dry, there was no flaking or emphasis on dead skin cells. So, if you want to use this serum daily, I'd recommend either strengthening your base skincare routine or applying a moisturizing cream afterwards to make it suitable for daily use! 2. The price point is also a bit of a downside. So it's hard to say it's a good value for money product. However, during the time I've used it, my satisfaction outweighed any disappointments, which is why I'm likely to repurchase it. If this product were more widely known and used by many people, I think there would be a lot of customers who understand and appreciate the brand's value. But for the general public to try it widely, the price point might be a bit of a hurdle.
TipDaytime care: Toner pad -> Hydrating toner -> Different C serum -> Moisturizing cream * For daytime care, I apply cream at the end for a slightly dewy finish rather than a matte one, to prepare for makeup. Nighttime care: Toner pad -> Mist (3 times) -> Protein or nourishing serum -> Different C serum * For nighttime care, I prefer a matte finish, so I use a heavier serum first, then finish with the Different C serum. (Advantage) High satisfaction after care as dust and hair don't stick to the skin To maximize the serum's effects during use, depending on my skin condition, I also used a peppermint-based cooling mask and a protein mask alongside this serum.

There's definitely a noticeable difference between days I use it and days I don't. ▪︎The formula has a liquid consistency, and the serum comes with a dropper, making it easy to dispense cleanly for both storage and application. ▪︎What I'm most satisfied with is how it performs in this dry season. When applied before my moisturizer, it allows my skin to move more smoothly, reducing that tight feeling. It's as if this serum gives the effect of using a sheet mask - it definitely feels different from regular serums. I could really feel that it's packed with hydration.
ConsIt might not suit everyone's skin, so it's best to patch test before using it regularly.

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.ProsI'm 30 with sensitive, dehydrated skin and pore concerns. My forehead is prone to small bumps. After trying various dermatological treatments, I've learned my skin is dry and prone to clogged pores, so I focus on home care. This was my first time using Phycore products. When choosing skincare, my top priority is finding something moisturizing without being too rich. I was lucky enough to be selected as a Hwahae Tester, and I'm so impressed that I plan to buy other Phycore products! Despite its lightweight texture, which made me worry it might not be hydrating enough, this serum provides incredible moisture - it feels like I've applied a cream! I'm even more convinced by its claims to soothe and improve pores with consistent use. It's a truly hydrating serum that enhances the absorption of my moisturizer. I think it would be perfect for anyone like me with combination dehydrated skin prone to small bumps. I'm definitely going to purchase other products from Phycore's soothing and pore care line!
ConsThe price point might make some hesitate before purchasing.
TipAfter toning, I apply the Phycore essence, then follow with a soothing cream - it leaves my skin feeling so hydrated!

It's so moisturizing that I don't even need an emulsion after applying it over my toner - no deep dryness at all. When I use it before makeup, my foundation goes on beautifully that day!
ConsInitially, the product came without instructions, so I had to search online to figure out how to open it... The price point also feels a bit steep.
TipIt works great when you mix a few drops into a modeling mask.

As someone who experiences deep dryness, I'm satisfied. When I use it at night, my skin feels firm and plump even in the morning.
ConsIt's quite expensive... Apart from the high price, there's nothing else to complain about.
