The watery texture makes it perfect as a first step, allowing you to streamline your skincare routine. The high concentration of glutathione results in a scent that's... really off-putting. It smells like rotten sweet potatoes, unfortunately. - js*****Dry SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresJun 23, 2025
I've been using this for about 1-2 weeks now, and I can really feel my complexion brightening up. It might be a temporary effect, but I haven't noticed any fading of dark spots yet. It's more like my overall skin tone has improved, you know? My skin has this lovely glow to it now. The egg smell is just... really unpleasant. I'm not sure if it's due to the ingredients, but there's this sticky feeling that I'm not a fan of. To be honest, I think that stickiness might be creating a reflective effect that makes the skin look brighter. I've also noticed some blemishes popping up - though that could be because it's summer. Maybe it would've been better in winter. The texture is so sticky that I've stopped using it with my usual functional serums and ampoules. Don't use this with other functional products. Pro tip: Keep it in the bathroom and apply it right after washing your face, while your skin is still dry. Then wash your hands and let it sit for a bit. I use a fan to help it absorb slightly before moving on to the next step in my skincare routine. If you apply toner or other serums while this product is still on your skin, that egg smell lingers throughout the whole application process. - ei*****RecommendedJun 13, 2025
I noticed a significant brightening effect after just three days of use. It's a shame it didn't work out for me long-term, as I would have continued using it if it had suited my skin better. Unfortunately, I developed an allergic reaction after only three days of use. It seems the glutathione in this product didn't agree with my skin. Everyone's skin is different, so if glutathione works well for you, I imagine it could really make your complexion radiant. I was so eager to use it that I tried again after my skin irritation subsided slightly, but the reaction flared up once more, forcing me to stop. I'm frustrated with my skin and disappointed that I couldn't continue using this product. It's important to patch test new skincare products, especially if you have sensitive skin or are prone to allergic reactions. While this product showed promising results for brightening, it's crucial to listen to your skin and discontinue use if you experience any adverse effects. - ap******Combination SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresRednessRecommendedJun 11, 2025
1. The texture is a transparent, slightly viscous liquid formula that's easy to apply. It's a bit thicker than the Purcell Biome essence. 2. It's free from harmful ingredients. I thought the 20ml size would run out quickly, but surprisingly, it lasted longer than expected. 3. This product doesn't cause pilling when applying makeup, allowing for a smooth application. 4. While it didn't dramatically brighten my face, my complexion didn't look dull during the time I used this product. 1. Purcell products are priced on the higher side considering the amount you get. 2. Eager for quick results, I applied this product daily. However, after about 5 days, my entire face started tingling. I had to apply a regenerating cream all over my face for two days to calm the irritation. 3. While it's more hydrating than the Purcell Biome essence, it's not quite moisturizing enough. You'll need to layer an additional moisturizing product. I recommend using this product only 2-3 times a week to avoid skin irritation from daily use. If you have super sensitive skin, make sure to patch test before incorporating it into your routine. - mo****Combination SkinRecommendedJun 2, 2025
After using it consistently for a month, I could really see my complexion becoming more even! It absorbs well, and even though I have super sensitive skin, I didn't experience any tingling or irritation on my face. The scent is a bit unpleasant... I suppose that means it doesn't contain added fragrances? It's a bit tricky to control the amount, so I've just been applying it by putting some on my hand first. Rather than using it every day, I've been incorporating other functional products once a week. - hi*******Combination SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresRecommendedJun 1, 2025
It definitely lightens blemish marks and brightens the skin. I often use glutathione for its whitening effects, and this one is truly amazing, but the price... sigh. There's a bit of an egg-like smell? Those with sensitive noses might find it a bit off-putting. But as you keep using it, the scent becomes somewhat addictive, haha. Applying it after COSRX Peptide makes it absorb even better, leaving the skin feeling more firm and supple. - gp***Combination SkinSensitive SkinRecommendedMay 30, 2025
The formula flows like water, so many people apply it by letting it drip directly from the dropper onto their face. At first, I found it challenging to control the amount, but because it has no stickiness, it absorbs immediately upon application. The finish feels refreshingly light on the skin. The scent is not very pleasant. Could it be the characteristic odor of glutathione? As you continue using it, you get accustomed to it, so it becomes less bothersome than it was initially. - 00*****Combination SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinRecommendedMay 29, 2025
I've been using this for about a month now, and here's my take: Absorption: It has a watery texture similar to the original Purcell, and it absorbs incredibly well into the skin. Scent: I thought the smell was familiar, and then it hit me - it actually smells like dog poop! It's like I'm applying puppy doo-doo to my face, haha! Effectiveness: I switched to this from a high-concentration Vitamin C serum, and I'm genuinely impressed. My complexion has become noticeably clearer. For the first two weeks, I was skeptical, wondering if it was doing anything at all. But then, suddenly, I noticed a stark difference between my face and neck. I had been applying Vitamin C to my neck (didn't want to waste the expensive stuff there) and this product on my face. The contrast was striking! It's pricey, but the results are worth every penny. Unfortunately, I keep getting folliculitis... I'm not sure why. Despite this, I stubbornly continued using it. The blemishes would disappear, only to reappear later. It seems this product doesn't agree with my skin for some reason. However, the effectiveness is so good that I can't bring myself to stop using it... I've deducted one star due to the blemishes and the price. It's not exactly budget-friendly, so I find myself using it sparingly. While the product shows impressive results in terms of brightening and evening out skin tone, it's important to note that individual skin reactions can vary. The unique scent might be off-putting for some users, but many find the benefits outweigh this quirk. If you experience persistent irritation or blemishes, it may be worth consulting with a dermatologist or considering alternative products that better suit your skin type. - hs******Combination SkinSensitive SkinRecommendedMay 24, 2025
It has a water-like texture, so you can think of it as a toner. Although I haven't been using it for long, I definitely feel like my redness has reduced somewhat. My complexion also seems a bit brighter. Given its price, I think I've seen short-term results that match the cost. The price is quite steep. At first, I didn't notice, but there's a faint strange scent. For me, it's not a game-changer, so when I apply other skincare products, its effects are somewhat masked. This review compares the product to a toner due to its lightweight, water-like consistency. The user notes positive short-term effects, particularly in reducing redness and brightening the complexion. However, they also mention the high price point as a drawback. There's a subtle, unusual scent that becomes noticeable over time. The reviewer suggests that while the product shows some benefits, its effects are not dramatic enough to stand out when used in conjunction with other skincare items. - db*********Normal SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsWrinkles/ElasticityRecommendedMay 24, 2025
I've seen improvement in my blemishes! This has become my go-to product. I've used about 2/3 of it so far, and the dark spots on my cheeks have noticeably faded. The scent is a bit strong, but not unbearable. When I accidentally used a sample of another cosmetic product that irritated my skin, using this product stung a bit. It seems unsuitable for use when your skin is super sensitive. It's best to use it when your skin is in normal condition. This product works hard to even out skin tone and reduce the appearance of dark spots. While it's effective for everyday use, those with sensitive skin should exercise caution, especially if your skin is already irritated. The formula absorbs well and shows promising results in fading hyperpigmentation with consistent use. However, the scent might be a bit strong for some users, though not overpowering. For optimal results, it's recommended to use this as part of your regular skincare routine when your skin is in a balanced state.
