ConsWhile it's clearly not oily, it feels too heavy and seems to dry out on the surface without absorbing. I've been mixing it with about 30% pure hyaluronic acid serum when using
TipMixing it with pure hyaluronic acid serum greatly improves its hydration

I apply it twice, and the finish feels moisturizing without being greasy. However, if you wait too long before the next step, it can feel a bit dry, so I quickly move on to the next product. I wish it locked in deep hydration a bit more effectively, as it seems slightly weak in that aspect. They claimed it helps with the absorption of subsequent products, but I didn't really notice that. Overall, it's a decent hydrating serum for the first step. I think it'll be suitable for summer use too, so I'll likely continue using it.
ConsIt seems slightly lacking in its ability to provide deep hydration, and the surface of the skin can feel a bit dry.
TipLayering it twice seems to work a bit better.

My complexion seems brighter and more radiant. 2. It significantly reduced the redness in my skin.
Cons2. The formula is quite runny, so if you're in a hurry, you need to wait a bit for it to dry after application.

It spreads easily, so a little goes a long way. With this amount, I think it'll last for ages. It absorbs quickly! It sinks right in, making it super convenient to use. It seems gentle! It feels like I'm applying a slightly moisturizing, viscous liquid-gel hybrid. There was absolutely no irritation.
ConsI honestly can't tell what effect this has at all. It absorbs extremely quickly and dries, but it doesn't seem to make my skin more hydrated. I also can't see how it enhances the effects of products applied on top, as many ads and YouTubers claim. I've started using it as the first step in my routine, followed by serums, since I've already bought it, but I'm not noticing any results.

That's when I use this product - I apply it lightly on its own or before my regular skincare routine! Absorption: This product absorbs quickly if you pat it on a few times after washing your face. It's very useful to apply before other skincare products. Hydration: It seems to provide more hydration than oil! So it was great for me since I'm looking for moisture. Moisturizing: Of course, it's unrealistic to expect long-lasting moisture from a pre-skincare product... Still, it does leave my skin feeling firmer after application. Non-sticky: It's not sticky at all. Should be great for summer use! Lightweight: Since it's applied before skincare, it feels like adding a light layer to the skin. Combats deep dryness: It doesn't feel like it's just sitting on top of the skin. It seems to penetrate and hydrate from within. Improves skin texture: I use it almost like a toner. It seems to help smooth out my skin texture a bit! Scent: It didn't bother me at all... I'm not particularly sensitive to fragrances.
ConsRunny texture: The consistency is almost like water! So it runs easily. But I guess that can't be helped. Quick drying: As it's a pre-skincare product, it seems to dry rather quickly! I'd recommend letting it absorb for a moment before applying your regular skincare products.

Initially, I noticed a slight improvement in skin brightness and texture! My skin felt healthier, and the next day it was super soft. At first, it seemed to calm my blemishes a bit, but it's not a miracle worker for acne. However, layering it 2-3 times seems to enhance its effectiveness. It appears to strengthen the skin barrier, but you need to apply it in 2-3 layers for the best results. Personally, I didn't experience any pilling when applying makeup over it (though I do tend to use heavier skincare). As a booster serum, it works particularly well when paired with other functional skincare products. I've used it with COSRX retinol cream and currently with another brand's vitamin ampoule. On its own, it's too light to replace an ampoule. I recommend using it with other ampoules or functional products at night. During the day, applying 2-3 layers of this serum followed by a moisturizer creates a solid skincare base. Overall: While not particularly effective for acne management, it seems quite beneficial for improving the skin barrier, brightness, and texture (after 2 weeks). I would repurchase. Great value for the generous amount.
ConsNo major issues, but the packaging could be improved. The large bottle with a squeeze top can get messy at the opening since the product is quite runny. It's not easy to dispense into your hand, so a dropper might work better - though a 500ml dropper bottle would be challenging to produce.
TipLayering multiple times really plumps up the skin. However, it doesn't completely eliminate deep dryness. I found using a cream skin product separately and then applying this serum tackled both deep hydration and skin firmness. As a booster serum, it definitely enhances the effects of functional skincare products when used together.

It's thinner than a viscous ampoule, allowing for quicker absorption on freshly cleansed skin. As a result, it feels like it absorbs more rapidly. •Despite being a functional cosmetic, it has a balanced ingredient list of 44 components - neither too many nor too few. (It's important to be cautious when there are numerous ingredients, as this increases skin exposure.) •The pump bottle design makes it very convenient to use. •For a thin serum, it's surprisingly hydrating. •It's great that it's fragrance-free.
Cons•It feels slightly sticky once it dries. •As the first step in skincare, it's easier to just apply essence, but since this is positioned as a toner, it feels a bit bothersome to have to apply an essence afterwards. •While 44 ingredients isn't excessive, those with super sensitive skin might find there are quite a few components to be wary of.
TipWhen applied right after cleansing, before towel-drying, it completely prevented any deep dryness, even on days when my skin felt particularly parched.

Recommended for those who like a clean finish. > Hydration: While not exceptional, it's not bad either. On very dry days, I needed to apply this serum twice for adequate hydration. > Quantity: When my skin feels dry, I tend to apply twice during my skincare routine. It's great that I can use it generously both morning and night without worrying about running out, thanks to the generous amount.
Cons> Effects: I'm not sure about the brightening effects or improvement in skin texture... Might need consistent use to see results. However, I'm satisfied enough that it didn't cause any blemishes! > Feel on skin: It can feel a bit dry if you apply too little. I found I needed to pump twice on each cheek (4 times total), twice on the forehead, and once on my hand, then massage it in to keep it from drying out before it absorbs. > Application method: Patting it in doesn't seem to work well - the serum dries up in the air before it can absorb. Massaging it in seems to give it more time to penetrate the skin.
TipDon't pat the product in! (The serum dries too quickly) After cleansing, pump a generous amount of serum onto your clean hands and gently massage it into your face.
