The formula has a watery, non-sticky texture that absorbs quickly into the skin, providing an immediate surge of hydration. However, the long-term moisturizing effects may not be sufficient for very dry skin types, so using it in conjunction with a cream is recommended. The serum helps create a smooth, dewy base for makeup application, preventing foundation from emphasizing dry patches. But it lacks significant effects on blemishes, freckles, and acne. The key benefits are the lightweight, refreshing texture, the immediate moisturizing effect, and the improved makeup application. However, it may not be the best standalone option for extremely dry skin types due to the relatively short-lasting hydration.
ConsThe Forest Phyton Moisturizing Serum has some disappointing aspects: 1. Short-lasting moisturizing power • It feels moisturizing when applied, but the moisture quickly evaporates over time, making it difficult to maintain long-lasting hydration. • Especially for those with very dry skin, using it alone may result in a feeling of dryness. 2. No visible effects on blemishes, freckles, or acne • While it was expected to have a soothing effect on the skin, there are hardly any noticeable improvements. • It does not help reduce the appearance of acne, freckles, or blemishes, so those seeking such benefits would need to use additional products. 3. Insufficient for use alone in the winter • During dry seasons, the serum alone is not enough for adequate moisturization, and a cream should be used in conjunction. • For those with very dry skin, it may even lead to a feeling of dryness. 4. Instant hydration but minimal skin barrier strengthening effects • While it provides a sense of immediate moisturization, the long-lasting, deep-seated hydration is lacking. • The long-term skin barrier strengthening effects are limited, so it may not be the best option for soothing sensitive skin. In summary, it is suitable as a quick hydration boost, but it falls short in terms of long-lasting moisturization and skin improvement effects.
TipHere are some tips for using the Forest Phyton Moisture Serum: ✔ 1. Use it in layers like a mist! • Apply the serum once and let it absorb, then apply another thin layer on top. This helps the moisturizing effect last much longer! • Especially for combination/dry skin, one layer may not be enough, so it's recommended to apply 2-3 layers. ✔ 2. Mix it with a cream to boost hydration! • Since the long-lasting hydration can be lacking, mixing it with a cream makes it much more moisturizing. • If a heavy cream feels too much, mix it with a light moisturizing cream to maintain the right level of hydration! ✔ 3. Use it as a quick face mask • Soak a cotton pad with the serum and leave it on for about 5 minutes for an instant moisture boost! • Focusing on dry, reddened areas can help soothe them a bit more. ✔ 4. Use it before makeup • Applying it before makeup helps refine the skin texture and allows foundation to adhere better. • Wait for the serum to absorb slightly before doing your base makeup for a smooth, seamless look. ✔ 5. Dab it on dry spots • If your skin feels tight during the day, just take a small amount of the serum and lightly pat it onto the dry areas. • The cheeks, around the mouth, and eye area are especially prone to dryness, so targeting those spots can provide instant hydration. ➡️ Using it with a cream or applying multiple layers tends to be more satisfying than using it alone.

It came out in a form similar to aloe gel or gel cream. The product contains cica ingredients, so it seemed good as a soothing option for people with skin troubles. I recently applied it to a friend who has been concerned about skin issues, and it seemed to work well. There is a pad product in the same line from the same company, and using them together made my skin feel well-hydrated and the texture well-maintained. It felt as good as the serum I normally use from TO**, and since it didn't drip, it was really easy to apply.
ConsI'm not sure if it properly improved wrinkles and whitening. Some other products even seemed a bit better. While I did feel the cooling and moisturizing effects well, I'm still not sure about the improvement in pore elasticity.
TipFor those who find this serum works well for them, I'd recommend trying the pad product from the same company as well. You can do a sheet mask with the pad and then layer the serum twice for best results.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros- It's almost oil-free like aloe vera soothing, and it's mainly focused on hydration and refreshing! - Even though I have sensitive skin, it's so gentle that there was no issue of my skin turning over or anything like that when I applied it. - When you apply it, there's a slight cooling sensation, and it feels like the pores are gently filled in. It has a bouncy, lifted feeling. - The pump packaging is great for hygienic use.
Cons- I'm a bit disappointed that fragrance has to be included. - Absorption isn't very fast, and after applying, it feels a bit sticky for a while before fully absorbing. Then the skin feels quite dry afterwards. It seems like an additional light moisturizer would be needed on top. - The volume is small, so it feels like it runs out quickly. - I'm not sure about the whitening or skin-soothing effects.
TipIt seems like it would be good to use in the summer, and personally, I think it would work better as a night care product rather than before makeup, due to the slightly sticky texture. Once it's absorbed, the skin feels tightened quickly, so be sure to follow up with an additional moisturizer!

Cons-After 1 week of use: No breakouts, but no noticeable improvements in wrinkles or whitening yet ㅎㅎ -The scent is quite polarizing,,,,ㅎㅎ Cucumber? Herbal? Dad's Skincare Scent? Anyway, it's that kind of fragrance. I'm surprised every time I apply it~^^ -The product runs out faster than expected, which is disappointing ㅠㅠㅠ
Tip*Tori Toner - Forest Serum - Essenature Squalane Cream!! Somehow, it's a great combination ㅋㅋㅎ I'm using it without any issues

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsCombination skin/T-zone moisturizer @Texture The texture is just like the aloe vera in the big Daiso container It's thick and sticky-free, just like aloe vera When applied, it absorbs into the skin without any stickiness, like an aloe vera serum This type of texture doesn't leave a sticky feeling after use, which is great @Hydration It has an aloe-like scent, so I keep comparing it to aloe vera gel. After application, it finishes with a refreshing feel, and my skin feels supple as if it's filled with moisture inside. However, if it's too much, on days like these, my face can get oily in the morning. But this doesn't have that issue and stays fresh. I've had times where my face felt heated and my skin got dry after waking up, but this product seems to lock in moisture well, leaving my skin hydrated without excess oil.
Cons@Brightening After using it consistently for 2 weeks, I didn't see much brightening effect It seems to have mainly just a moisturizing function, rather than additional benefits The refreshing hydration is very nice Personally, I only feel it's a well-made aloe vera product, nothing more

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros1. Moisture I like that it feels like it's just filling my skin with moisture without any excess oil. Since unnecessary oil can actually make the skin worse, this seems like a good option for oily skin types to use in the summer. 2. Fragrance The fragrance is like a refreshing green tea scent. It's not an extremely strong herbal fragrance, so I don't think the scent will be polarizing. Personally, I really enjoyed it. 3. Packaging The pump packaging is great because it dispenses just the right amount. I was worried it might break when I accidentally dropped it, but it's very sturdy. If it starts to fall, don't try to catch it with your foot - just let it fall to the floor, as your foot could get damaged.
Cons1. Moisture As someone with dry skin, I ended up applying a slightly richer cream afterwards. Those with dry skin may find this product alone doesn't provide enough moisture. 2. Whitening Since the delivery was delayed, I only used it for about 3 days, and didn't see any whitening effects. Nowadays, there are high-end whitening products that can make your skin look brighter the next morning if you apply a generous amount before bed, so I was a bit disappointed by the lack of whitening results. It's probably best to refer to reviews from long-term users before purchasing.

Moisture As my skin has become drier with age, I've started to pay attention to the issue of internal dryness. This product makes my skin look dewy and moisturized, and most importantly, it doesn't pill when I apply sunscreen on top of it, which I'm very satisfied with. 2. Texture Being a serum, it has a thicker and more viscous texture compared to toners or other moisturizing products. I was worried that it might not be suitable for the summer when I sweat a lot, but the good absorption made it not much of a concern. 3. Brand Power Yuhan Combell... I trust the power of a major corporation.(?)
Cons1. Volume Ugh... While the product works well for my sensitive skin and I think I could use it up again, the volume is small and it's quite expensive... 2. Whitening It claims to have whitening effects, but since I've only used it for less than a month, I haven't really noticed any visible results. But I wasn't expecting that function anyway, so I'm not too disappointed.
TipI recommend this product for dry skin types.

Similar to a moisturizing cream or aloe, but this product absorbs faster and leaves a cleaner finish. ▶Usage Experience Fresh and clean type. After cleansing, it calms the skin without any irritation. It absorbs well, leaving no residue, but effectively locks in moisture. I usually react strongly to products, but this one with its mild ingredients was fine. ▶Fragrance I liked the cool and refreshing skin scent. The light fragrance has a strong presence, so it may be unpleasant for those sensitive to scents. It might be better to tone down the fragrance a bit. ▶Packaging The matte, pale green design is clean and simple, matching the product well. Especially the 'vacuum packaging' allows for clean and convenient use until the end. ▶Overall Overall, the clean and cool feeling makes it a good basic product to use alone in the summer. It's a product I keep reaching for! I have an oily skin type, so the moisture level was sufficient, but it may be slightly lacking for dry skin types.
ConsSince I haven't used it for a long time, it's difficult to confirm the effects on whitening or wrinkle improvement. I'll need to use it a bit longer to observe the results.
TipThe cooling effect is immediate, helping to relieve the heat sensation in the skin. When applied before makeup, the cushion foundation applies better than usual. It seems like a great product to use in the summer.

The texture is similar to a soothing cream, but the ingredients are even better than a typical soothing cream, and it effectively addresses dehydration. It contains panthenol, which is known for its regenerative properties, and vitamin E, which helps prevent moisture loss. It absorbs quickly, and while there is a slightly tacky feeling initially, it gets absorbed quickly. As an oily-skinned person, I found it suitable for use during the summer evenings. This product is also manufactured in Korea by the renowned hygiene product company Yuhan-Kimberly, which gives me a sense of trust. The most appealing aspect is the vacuum packaging. The product is dispensed from the bottom up, allowing me to use every last bit, which is very convenient. This thoughtful design has been a great help in my product selection. While some may find the fragrance objectionable, it did not bother me much. Overall, I believe this is a product that faithfully fulfills the purpose of a hydrating serum.
ConsWhile it claims to have whitening and wrinkle-improving effects, I personally did not notice significant changes in the short term.
TipThe effects seem to be maximized when applied after cleansing

When you first apply it, you might think 'Oh, it's a bit oily?' but then it transforms into water-like and absorbs very lightly. I applied it in the steps of toner - forest serum - other heavier serums - soothing cream. The refreshing texture was great for controlling the glossy look! Especially for me, who tends to get oily in the summer, layering this serum instead of a cream worked well - it wasn't sticky and kept my skin moisturized. Effects: First of all, it was effective in improving skin texture and appearance! As soon as I applied it like a toner pad, I could feel my skin texture becoming more refined, and as I mentioned before, it was great for the glossy look.
ConsHowever, it didn't seem to have much effect on my nasolabial folds, skin elasticity, or pores. As someone with a lot of enlarged pores, I used it with high hopes, but not much... it didn't seem to do much for my pores. It was fine for my combination skin, but for those with dry skin, using this product alone might not be enough.
