The lightweight feel makes it perfect for hot, humid summers with zero discomfort. The main ingredient, bifida ferment lysate, primarily works to strengthen the skin barrier, boost immunity, and enhance vitality. When applied, there's a slight tangy scent typical of fermented ingredients, but it doesn't linger. Personally, I prefer products like this that maintain the natural scent of ingredients rather than masking it with excessive fragrances.
ConsUpon application, I experienced a stinging sensation, followed by redness and swelling, particularly around the nose and butterfly zone. After a two-day break, I tried mixing a small amount with my moisturizer as the final step in my skincare routine, which slightly reduced the irritation. I'd caution those with super sensitive skin to use this product with care.

[50s / Dry skin] She's been using the brown bottle serum, and I found out this product works even better when used together, so she started using it right away on the day we received it. <Experience> - Texture ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ It's surprisingly thin. When you use the dropper to apply it to your face, it runs a bit. However, it's not too light - it has a slight viscosity? She's very satisfied with that. It's perfect for summer use without feeling heavy. - Scent ⭐️⭐️ The scent wasn't as pleasant as expected. Both my mom and I are sensitive to fragrances, and this one wasn't particularly enjoyable, which was a bit disappointing. - Absorption ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ She's happy that it absorbs quickly, feels moisturizing, and isn't too sticky.
ConsIf I had to point out a downside, it would be the scent. My mom doesn't have redness or blemishes (she occasionally gets a small pimple when using heavy products), so she couldn't really comment on its soothing effects. However, when I tried it (20s / Dry + Sensitive skin), it stung a little. Fortunately, it didn't cause any breakouts.
TipIt worked better when used in the evening, and it seems to be more effective when used with the brown bottle serum from the same line.

As someone who generously applies serum, I found the 20ml bottle quite generous. After two weeks of use, I noticed it's great for hydration and soothing, making it suitable for sensitive and dry skin. It even helped calm some sudden breakouts. Applying it in the evening followed by a rich night cream left my skin feeling silky smooth the next morning. Though I don't wear much makeup, I did notice an improvement in my skin texture.
ConsBeing sensitive-skinned, I experienced a tingling sensation for about 10 minutes after application during the first week. Upon checking the ingredients, I realized they weren't as gentle as I'd hoped. The moisturizing components seemed a bit irritating for me. After a week, the tingling subsided, but I still felt a slight warmth. The fragrance was also challenging for me. It had a somewhat medicinal scent, but with an artificial twist - initially even reminiscent of rubber. However, as scent perception can vary, I did get used to it after a few days. The button-style dropper was inconvenient, making it difficult to apply evenly on the face and control the amount. This might be frustrating for those who like to use product generously.
TipFor enhanced hydration, try layering this serum before your regular one. Follow up with a rich, nourishing cream for an extra boost - perfect for those with very dry skin. However, it's not recommended for oily skin types.
