I love how it instantly replenishes my skin's hydration!

As others have mentioned, it's not lightweight but rather has a rich texture. Applying it to your neck might help with wrinkle improvement.

This serum is great for layering multiple times.

로즈마리 앤드 엑토인 유스세럼

While it's generally good and inoffensive, there's a noticeable scent, probably due to the rosemary oil. I'm not a fan of fragranced products in general, so I thought it would be helpful for everyone to know about this.

Skin type: Sensitive, Dry skin

First off, it's incredibly rich and nourishing, which makes sense for an anti-wrinkle product! As you can see in the photo, I dropped a single drop and lifted my hand - it truly doesn't drip down.

It seems perfect for winter use, and as someone with super sensitive skin, I experienced no irritation! Since it's a functional product, rather than using it frequently, it might be best to mix it with other serums or use it a set number of times per week.

I recommend applying a bit more than the suggested amount. While it feels great right after application, you'll notice your skin is even more hydrated come morning.

Personally, I prefer sweet scents, but the 'master' of our house (probably referring to a pet) usually can't stand it when I wear sweet fragrances. Interestingly, they didn't react to this one at all. Seems like they approve... Though the scent might be hit or miss for some people. Also, the price seems a bit high for the amount you get...

First off, I thought the bottle was just green, but when I received it, it was an even more luxurious shade of green, which I loved even more (being a green fanatic myself!). Having dry and sensitive skin, I always research product ingredients, and this little gem has some really skin-friendly components. I applied it after my evening cleanse and basic skincare routine. It's highly concentrated, so I initially planned to use just a drop or two, but it absorbed so well that I ended up patting in a bit more before bed. Come morning, my skin wasn't just hydrated - on days when I forgot my sunscreen, I noticed my skin was less irritated than usual. Given my profession, I typically need sunscreen year-round to prevent skin irritation, but since discovering this product, I worry less on those occasional days I forget my SPF. It seems to deeply hydrate and strengthen the skin barrier...

I did experience some blemishes, but I think it was because my skin was particularly sensitive at the time. If you have sensitive skin, stick to minimal skincare and lightweight products.

[ Male / Early 20s / Combination dehydrated skin ]

1. Authentic rosemary scent
As someone who grows rosemary, I was impressed by the fresh rosemary fragrance that hit me as soon as I applied the product. It genuinely felt like real rosemary was used abundantly. The scent was delightful, and I felt the product quality matched its aroma.

2. Hydration
Initially, I thought it might not absorb well, but within seconds of application, I could feel it sinking into my skin. I genuinely felt my skin becoming more hydrated.

3. Anti-counterfeit measures and tamper-evident seal
I appreciated the QR code on the packaging that verifies the product's authenticity when scanned. This made me feel secure about using a genuine product and added a touch of luxury to the experience.

4. Wrinkle improvement
The combination of moisturizing and anti-aging ingredients seemed to visibly reduce my fine lines. I noticed some improvement in my wrinkles.

Due to its lack of moisturizing power, I strongly recommend using it with other heavier formulations like ampoules or creams!

The fragrance was overwhelmingly strong, which was off-putting despite it being a pleasant scent. I also think it lacks sufficient moisturizing power for winter use. Furthermore, I didn't notice any particular soothing effects or improvements in wrinkles, unfortunately.

When I first applied it to my face, it had a slightly mucus-like texture, almost like... runny nose? It felt slippery at first, but I was pleasantly surprised by how quickly it absorbed. This made me feel it's an excellent serum for deep hydration.

Considering the price, 30ml seems like a small amount. Also, because the fragrance is strong, I wouldn't recommend it for those with sensitive noses.

My skin type: Combination dehydrated skin
Usage period: One week
Texture: Runny, like thin mucus
Moisture satisfaction: 70%
Scent: Strong rosemary fragrance

For my combination dehydrated skin, I'm quite satisfied with the hydration level! The texture is slightly runny, like thin mucus, but it absorbs well. That's probably why it spreads easily when applied! The scent is rosemary, which I found a bit strong. Because of that, I was a bit worried it might irritate my skin, so I didn't reach for it as often... That said, it's not an unpleasant smell, just a rosemary fragrance! The scent itself is nice.

After applying the serum, if you follow up with a highly moisturizing cream, it works great even in winter.

It felt less hydrating when used during extremely dry periods.

The texture seems less sticky compared to other serums. It has a strong fresh feeling. The scent isn't overpowering, making it feel less irritating to the skin. The best part is that it's gentle, so no blemishes appear! I often get blemishes when switching cosmetics, but I loved that I didn't experience any with this one.

There's nothing particularly disappointing, but the typical cosmetic scent? It was a bit bothersome!

I have dry skin that tends to show a lot of dead skin cells when I apply makeup!

* Subtle rosemary scent
- It's a familiar fragrance... something I've smelled before! 
If you dislike cosmetic scents, you might not be a fan.

* Runny texture
- It has a thin, fluid consistency.
- After application, it doesn't feel sticky or oily

* Use before makeup
- It's moisturizing, so it doesn't emphasize dead skin cells
- Feels hydrating from deep within.

* Better for day than night
- It's not heavy, making it great for light application

* Would I repurchase?
- Since it didn't cause any blemishes, I'd like to buy it for the dry autumn and winter seasons.

I use this product during the day. My routine involves prepping my skin with toner pads, applying this serum, followed by a lightweight, hydrating sun gel before makeup. The result is flawless, porcelain-like skin. It's perfect to use before applying makeup.

Price: The price seems a bit high for the amount you get. If it were slightly more affordable, I'd definitely consider repurchasing once I've used it all up.

Usage period: November 16, 2023 - November 26, 2023 (10 days)
Skin type: Combination dehydrated skin

Ingredients: My skin doesn't react well to pore-clogging ingredients like stearic acid! So I'm usually cautious when choosing skincare products, but this one doesn't contain such ingredients. Overall, the formula is quite gentle, and I didn't experience any blemishes after use, which was great.

Light hydration: I believe it's crucial for serums to absorb quickly without leaving a sticky residue, and this product does just that! It sinks in lightly without any stickiness on my skin. While it absorbs easily, the texture doesn't run, making it convenient to apply.

Scent: It has a subtle rosemary fragrance that I think most people would find pleasant and inoffensive.

It's perfect to use before bed or before applying makeup!

I wish it made my skin feel a bit more elastic. It could use a bit more moisturizing power. However, it's great as a light, hydrating serum for winter use.

Recently, my mom and I have been looking for a serum for the changing seasons and winter. We couldn't find anything that caught our eye until we came across this one. The ingredients and its ability to maintain skin's oil and moisture balance seemed promising, so I applied to be part of The Hwahae Testers.

With winter making my skin feel rough and dry, creams weren't cutting it. But using this serum along with Hanyul's essence toner and layering multiple skincare products has helped lock in hydration that used to evaporate quickly. Now my skin feels more moisturized for longer.

My usual cushion foundation tends to be drying in winter, but it works fine with this serum underneath.

The texture is like a runny gel, and I love that it comes with a dropper for clean application.

I think this will be really useful for spring, seasonal transitions, and winter.

The scent is neutral - while it's technically unscented, the green bottle color made me think of a forest.
