As someone with super sensitive skin, I exclusively use the Avène line, and this one isn't bad at all.
ConsIf you use it when your skin is already irritated, it might make things worse. It's best to use this when your blemishes have subsided and your skin has calmed down a bit. While one pump of the dropper is enough for the whole face and it absorbs well, it feels sticky. No matter how much I try to make it absorb (using both beauty devices and hands), it pills when I apply other products on top.
TipIf you're using the Avène line, I recommend using it at night in this order: mist - Eau Thermale emulsion - serum. That seems to work well!

It's not just mildly watery, but also moisturizing. It has a similar viscosity to a snail toner, but even though it has some thickness when applied, it absorbs well without any stickiness or oiliness, leaving a supple finish. It thoroughly hydrates the skin, so it seems suitable for any skin type. I used it on days when my skin condition was poor, and there was no irritation at all. I could even apply a cream right after without any tightness. Among the products I've tried, this seems to be the only one where I don't feel any tightness even when using the serum alone.
ConsIt has a floral, fragrant scent, which I didn't mind since I'm not very sensitive to fragrances, but those sensitive to scents should take note. Also, if you apply it before makeup, it may cause slight pilling. Compared to other products, the cost-effectiveness is a bit lower.
TipDue to the pilling, I would recommend using it as a night care product.

Usage: Has a slightly sticky feel.
ConsThe usage experience is quite disappointing... 🥺 As this is part of Avène's Hydrance line, I had very high expectations for the product performance. However, the texture itself is too sticky and slow to absorb. As a result, anything I apply on top, be it a gel cream, moisturizer, or sunscreen, just ends up sliding off. It's really difficult to use during the day. Even when I try to use it at night, the other skincare products I want to layer on top still get pushed away.
TipI would only recommend using this as a nighttime skincare product...

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.Pros✔Brand: Avène is a French brand known for its acne skincare and mists ✔Texture: The texture is quite dense, so it seems like it can be used for a long time. It's not a watery serum, but a thick, viscous serum ✔Moisture: The thick texture provides long-lasting moisture to the skin. ✔Recommended for: Dry and dull skin / Skin lacking radiance / Skin with blemishes / Rough skin ✔Recommendation: If you want a slightly refreshing summer serum that still provides moisture, this is recommended ✔Irritation: There was no irritation on my face ✔Effects: Contains hyaluronic acid, niacinamide (vitamin B3), whitening function, blemish improvement effect If your face is dull and dry, this serum immediately resolves the dryness. It gives a plumping sensation deep within the skin. Even as an oily-skinned person, I used this serum with satisfaction and would consider repurchasing it.
Cons✔Price: The full-size product is 38,000 won at Olive Young, so it is not an inexpensive serum ✔Makeup pilling: If you apply makeup right after using the serum, the makeup can pill. It's better to use this at night before bed rather than before applying makeup.
