Its texture is perfect for daily application - it doesn't run, yet provides a hydrating feel that absorbs quickly into the skin, leaving you with a moisturized and glowing complexion. It's especially great for summer when you're carefully choosing products to address pore concerns. For me, it's a no-brainer choice.
ConsI have super sensitive skin that's prone to blemishes, but I'm using the IOPE Retinol Super Bounce Serum with great satisfaction and no irritation.

I had a bad experience with another brand's retinol cream. I started with a rice-grain-sized amount, gradually increased it when I thought I was used to it, and ended up with peeling skin. That made me wary of retinol for a while. But the idea of retinol kept coming back to me. So I decided to give it another try with this product, which is said to be less irritating. And wow, it's fantastic! No skin irritation (except for the expected tingling on cuts or peeled areas). You can use it morning or night, even twice a day, without any issues. I had a deep blemish (or was it inflammation?) on my chin near the corner of my mouth that kept flaring up and spreading for almost a month. After using this, it finally calmed down. I haven't been using it long enough to see effects on wrinkles or pores, but I feel like my skin barrier has become stronger. I bought it mainly for the skin barrier improvement mentioned in the product details, so I'm satisfied. The lid is plastic, and the container holding the product feels like ceramic - nice touch! I'd recommend this to retinol beginners, those with sensitive skin, and anyone who wants to apply their skincare without overthinking it!
ConsNothing negative to report. Those looking for retinol's powerful effects on pore tightening, wrinkle improvement, and elasticity might find it a bit lacking.
TipDon't use this after exfoliating (scrubs, etc.)! (Important) Make sure to hydrate well before and after the retinol step -> This reduces irritation and increases effectiveness Also, if you're using this during the day, don't forget to apply sunscreen when going out. If you misuse retinol and your skin peels, remove all active products, minimize your skincare routine, and use (ointment) + Bepanthen to seal in moisture. Then pray for quick healing.

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.ProsThis gentle serum has a low retinol concentration, making it perfect for daily use, both morning and night, without any worries. It's a pleasure to apply and you can really feel the pore-tightening effects and skin texture improvement. I highly recommend it. When you're hesitant about using high-concentration retinol consistently or when your skin isn't at its best, the IOPE Super Bounce Serum is an excellent alternative. For a mild product, it's truly unparalleled.
ConsWhile it's labeled as having 0.0 irritation and I, with my sensitive skin, didn't experience any issues, individual results may vary. Those with extremely sensitive skin should still exercise caution.
TipRemember, when using any skincare product in the morning, it's crucial to pair it with a sunscreen that has both SPF and PA ratings. This helps prevent irritation and hyperpigmentation.

I always noticed my skin getting lighter when using retinol Apparently, you can apply it in the morning too
ConsUsually there's no irritation, but When my skin isn't in great condition, the area around my mouth always gets irritated
TipBe careful and avoid the area around your mouth

It's such a scary product, but I saw it being recommended on YouTube! However, it's really gentle - you can use it in the morning (sunscreen is a must) and definitely at night. Even after just one application, I felt like my pores and skin tone were a bit more refined. Since it seemed like a product worth continuing to use, I ordered another one when I saw it was discounted on Olive Young. As a mom of two, it's not easy to go to the dermatologist, and even though I have home devices, I don't have the time to use them. But I think just applying this consistently will give me good results.
ConsThe price is exorbitant compared to the value, but it is a product I want to use for the rest of my life.
TipTake advantage of the Hwahae sale... Recently, when I ordered a 30ml bottle, they gave me 4 samples of 10ml, plus a retinol face mask, a bag, and all sorts of other things, so I was like "what's going on here?" and immediately ordered one more bottle. So for the same price as the 30ml, I got a 70ml bottle. I've stocked up during the sale and these are products I'll use for life. Haha

It contains 1% retinol, so the concentration is high, yet my skin was not irritated at all, which was great. This low-irritation retinol can be used without concern even for sensitive skin, so I would recommend it to those new to retinol. 😊
ConsThe product had a nice glide, so I thought it would be refreshing, but to my surprise, it ended up feeling a bit oily. For those with oily skin, the shiny appearance may be a concern. While I didn't experience any breakouts, the areas with visible pores did feel slightly congested.
TipAfter cleansing, I apply a moisturizing toner to prep my skin. Then, I use this serum! My skin is slightly oily, so I've been using a Japanese oil-absorbing powder. *The Japanese powder I use is one that can be applied even after sleeping.

After going through the adaptation period (day 1, day 3, day 5), I am using it daily without any issues. You don't need to use a large amount, and it's sufficient to apply it thinly to the areas of concern or across the entire face. It is moisturizing, non-irritating, odorless, and non-greasy. This product clearly demonstrates why Amore Pacific is the leader in retinol.
ConsPerhaps the price may be slightly burdensome for some, but otherwise there are no notable shortcomings.
TipAs someone who has experienced all the side effects of retinol sensitivity, an adaptation period is essential! If your skin is sensitive or this is your first use, try using a small amount only at night. On day 1 (with retinol), apply 2-3 times your usual moisturizing routine until days 2-4. You may find the light at the end of the tunnel.

I trusted this product because it's made by IOPE, a brand that has been researching retinol for over 30 years. I was particularly impressed by their proprietary 'prescription retinol' which helps reduce irritation while enhancing absorption. The moment I applied it, I loved how it gently adhered to my skin and absorbed quickly. After using it consistently for a few days, I felt my skin become much firmer. Every time I cleansed my face, I could definitely feel that my skin texture had become softer and smoother. It absorbs with a fresh feeling, without any heaviness or stuffiness, so I've been using it comfortably both morning and evening. This serum is especially great because it's a 'zero-irritation retinol serum' that can be used during the day, minimizing irritation. It seems perfect for retinol beginners or those with sensitive skin. I felt even more confident knowing it had passed dermatological tests, sensitive skin tests, and hypoallergenic tests. I highly recommend this to anyone looking to improve skin elasticity and texture in one go!
ConsThere's nothing particularly bad to say. When it comes to retinol, IOPE is the go-to. It's gentle and great.
