Doesn't Cause Breakouts

It's best not to use this alongside products containing other potentially irritating ingredients! For example, high-concentration vitamin C essences or exfoliating AHA/BHA products can be too harsh on the skin when combined with retinol. If you must use them together, I recommend separating them between your morning and evening routines, or alternating days of use.

If I had to nitpick, the product comes in a glass bottle, which isn't the most convenient for carrying around. While the design is sleek and pretty, it's a bit heavy to pack in a toiletry bag when traveling. However, I wonder if they chose glass packaging specifically because of the retinol ingredient!

- Gentle and non-irritating
Even with my super sensitive skin, I could use this without any redness or tingling sensation. It's a great product for retinol beginners, causing no stress to the skin.
- Lightweight formula
The thin and hydrating watery texture absorbs quickly with absolutely no stickiness. It's perfect for use even during summer without feeling heavy.

흑당근 비타A 레티놀 탄력앰플

When used together with the black carrot cream, my skin becomes incredibly smooth and soft by the next morning!

There's absolutely nothing to complain about, and with frequent sales at Olive Young, the price seems quite reasonable too!

When I first started using this product, I was worried because I have super sensitive skin. But this cream caused no irritation or blemishes at all, and it even helped with my deep dryness. It's great for use all year round! The next day, my skin texture feels smooth and my makeup applies beautifully. I had tried Goodal's Vita C serum before, but it made my skin tingle and caused breakouts, so I stopped using Goodal products. However, I think I'll keep using this one!

After applying toner, I use this product, and it completely eliminates dryness even in midsummer (I have oily skin). Adding a layer of moisturizer on top is perfect. Since it contains retinol, don't forget to apply sunscreen when using it in the morning.

There wasn't anything particularly bad. However, for a retinol product, I didn't notice rapid or significant effects, which might be worth mentioning.

Despite containing retinol, the concentration seems to be just right. It's gentle enough that even with my sensitive skin, I've been using it without any blemishes or irritation. I've even repurchased it.

I'm not sure about the effects I expected from retinol. Even if it's not a very high concentration, using a retinol product at night usually makes my skin condition significantly better the next morning, so I like retinol. But with this product, I didn't really feel that temporary improvement effect, and even after using two bottles in a row, I'm still not sure. It's disappointing.

This is a review after using two bottles.
I purchased it because the retinol ingredient seems to suit me well.
While the high-performance ingredient can be irritating, it is easily absorbed and I used it comfortably without any significant irritation, which is the biggest advantage. It is also quickly absorbed, and the fragrance is moderate.

While the price is a bit disappointing, it's still worth paying for. Good, good, good!

I'm not sure if it's incredibly effective, but when I apply it thinking it might work, I feel like it's having some effect on my pores

It's frustrating that you can't reach the bottom of the container. To use it all up, you have to shake it vigorously like you're trying to get the last bit of shampoo out.

It absorbs beautifully and feels like it's deeply hydrating my skin from within. There's no stickiness, and it sinks in really well.

I have sensitive skin, but even when I apply it generously, my face doesn't react negatively. This suggests the retinol content is quite low

Since it doesn't contain a high concentration of retinol, I didn't notice any specific effects, but it worked well as a daily serum

I mainly use it at night because I need to apply sunscreen during the day.

Also, I don't use it every night of the week. Some days I want to focus on hydration instead.

The dropper doesn't draw up much product, so you need to apply it twice - once on each cheek. It's a bit inconvenient to have to do this double action.

Here's my review after using it for a month. It's entirely subjective.

- Scent: Not particularly noticeable
- Effects: Can't say much about wrinkle improvement, but it definitely makes my skin texture smoother.
- Feel: Neither extremely hydrating nor oily. I have sensitive skin, and it didn't cause any blemishes.

Additional notes:

- I used this alongside Innisfree's retinol toner. While the toner stung when it touched my acne spots, surprisingly, this ampoule didn't cause any tingling sensation.

- I bought this as part of a 1+1 deal and gave one to my friend with oily, acne-prone skin. At first, she said it pilled under her makeup the next day, but now she seems to be using it well. It didn't cause major blemishes for her skin type either. I initially bought it based on a recommendation from a friend with dry skin, and I chose this product because I heard Goodal products are gentle.

- If you want to use retinol in an ampoule form, I recommend Goodal's. It's a skincare product you won't regret buying.

Due to its lower concentration, you might not see dramatic, eye-catching results. However, I found the formulation to be quite suitable and pleasant overall.

I highly recommend this as an introductory retinol product. I've heard that high concentrations can be harsh on the skin, but this product is excellent for helping your skin adapt. It's a great way to ease into retinol use.

Unfortunately, it caused blemishes on my sensitive skin, so I couldn't use it for long.

I appreciated that the ingredients were gentler compared to other products and left my skin feeling nicely moisturized.

1. Feels a bit heavy
Being summer, it might feel slightly heavy on the skin right now.

1. Skin feels firmer
While not a lightweight formula, it's on the heavier side, making your skin feel more taut and elastic when applied.

2. No irritation for acne-prone skin
Despite having pustular and small bumps, using this didn't cause any redness or worsen my blemishes.

I prefer applying the ampoule directly from the dropper to my face! This way, I can apply it without the heat from my hands. Just make sure the dropper doesn't touch your skin - let it drip onto your face instead. (This prevents bacteria from your skin getting into the dropper!)

You need to pump it several times to get enough product. It's a bit frustrating as only a small amount comes out with each squeeze of the dropper. Also, it leaves a slight oily film on the skin, which might feel a bit heavy for those with oily skin. When I first used it during my menstrual cycle with lots of small blemishes on my chin, it didn't dramatically calm my troubled skin.

As someone who loves using ampoules for basic skincare, I've tried many, and this one absorbs quickly and well, especially for combination dehydrated skin! I used it right after cleansing without toner, and I loved how fast it absorbed and how it left my skin feeling firm. The texture feels like a mix between an emulsion and an ampoule, spreading smoothly without being sticky. The scent is nearly fragrance-free, with no noticeable smell that bothered me. It was great for hydration and elasticity. Among the retinol products I've tried, this felt the gentlest. I was most satisfied with the fact that I could trust it due to its excellent ingredients. Unlike other retinol products that require careful application, this one was comfortable to use without worry. It's a functional product that isn't heavy, making me want to recommend it to my mom too.
