I've never purchased a vitamin ampoule separately before, but after trying it this time, I noticed my face definitely seemed a bit brighter. The amount is quite generous, so I've continued using it even after the review period, and I'm loving it! What I appreciate most is how it hydrates and brightens my complexion.
ConsThere's nothing I dislike about this product! I didn't experience any blemishes either!

I decided to try this because I have a lot of freckles. 2. As a vitamin C serum, it's not completely gentle or irritation-free, but I'm using it well without any significant tingling. It has a subtle fruity scent that makes application a pleasant experience. 3. After just a week of use, while there aren't any dramatic effects, I feel like my complexion has brightened slightly!! I plan to continue using it consistently.
ConsHmm, there's nothing particularly bad to mention. Maybe the slight irritation? But that's pretty common with products that have brightening effects.

Although I haven't used it for long enough to see dramatic results, my complexion feels brighter than before. Texture and Application: The formula is lightweight, smooth, and fluid. My previous vitamin ampoule was too sticky to comfortably apply before bed, but this product absorbs well, making it suitable for both day and night use. Despite being a vitamin ampoule, it doesn't cause any tingling or irritation, so it's great even for those with super sensitive skin. Scent: It has a fresh, citrusy fragrance - maybe orange or lemon? It's pleasant without being overwhelming. The scent is refreshing and enjoyable. Overall Rating: Hydration: 4/5 Fragrance: 4/5 Texture: 4/5
ConsI didn't find any particular downsides while using this product!
TipBe careful not to apply it directly on open wounds as it may cause a burning sensation. Avoid those areas when applying!

Here's my take as someone in their 50s with dry skin, age spots, and blemishes: While it didn't have a major effect on my long-standing age spots in this short period, I noticed my overall complexion became about one shade brighter. Considering the brief usage time, I'm very satisfied. (I applied it 2-3 times morning and evening, layering it) ■ Texture It has a thin essence-like consistency ■ Application It absorbs quickly and doesn't feel heavy even when layered ■ Skin Sensitivity This might be due to my personal application method, but when I layer it 2-3 times, I occasionally experience some redness and a warming sensation. I consider this normal for Vitamin C formulations. (I didn't have any blemishes)
ConsThe one downside is the scent. While it didn't bother me, my daughter found the distinct vitamin smell too strong and unpleasant. If you're sensitive to fragrances, you might find it off-putting. If you're planning to purchase, I highly recommend trying a sample first to test the scent
Tip■ Pro Tip For maximum brightening effects, apply sunscreen diligently and use this product twice daily, morning and evening. When applying, control the amount and try layering it 2-3 times (not recommended for sensitive skin). For best results, pair it with a vitamin cream that has high moisture content. This will make your skin feel firm and noticeably brighten your complexion. Great value for the price! Wishing everyone healthy and beautiful skin!

I loved that this product has a light and fluid consistency! ✓ Pleasant scent From the moment you squeeze it out, this product has a citrusy aroma reminiscent of yuzu tea with a hint of orange. The natural fragrance made me feel good every time I applied it! ✓ Brightens complexion Although I haven't used it for long, I definitely noticed my skin looking clearer compared to when I first started using it! ✓ Vitamin ampoule suitable for daily use Unlike other products that can sting or are limited to once-a-day application, this one is gentle enough for sensitive skin despite its high vitamin content. That's why I was able to apply it multiple times, both morning and evening!
Cons✓ May be too dry for use alone on dry skin While I loved the texture as someone with oily skin, my mother, who has dry skin, couldn't use it alone and had to layer a moisturizer on top. Those with dry skin should keep this in mind!
Tip✓ Works great with LED therapy! After opening up the pores with LED therapy, apply the ampoule and gently pat it in. It absorbs better than on days without LED treatment, and your skin feels even softer! (I used a 100-session LED device)

I didn't experience any blemishes or skin texture issues while using it. My skin is super sensitive, so I'm usually very picky about ingredients. Surprisingly, I ended up applying this daily without even checking - oops! I later noticed it contains dimethicone (usually a red flag for me), but guess what? After applying it before bed, I woke up to smoother skin and a more even complexion! Normally, I'm prone to whiteheads and acne, but my skin remained clear - I'm impressed! It's a hit for me! Ingredient-wise, it's packed with 79.8% sea buckthorn fruit extract - that's a high concentration! Plus, it's enriched with 10 natural extracts including green tea, rosemary leaf oil, aloe vera, safflower, neem flower, orange, basil leaf, and turmeric root. These natural ingredients feel more nourishing and safe to me. The generous 60ml size is reassuring too. As for hydration and texture, it's perfect for my combination dehydrated skin prone to scarring and occasional acne. I prefer lighter formulas, and this fits the bill - low on oil, high on hydration. It has a clear, slightly viscous texture that's bursting with moisture. After patting it in several times, it absorbs well, unlike some vitamin ampoules that can feel sticky or sit on the skin. It leaves a subtle glow and seems to brighten my complexion, likely due to the vitamin content. It's been a lifesaver in this cold weather, keeping my skin hydrated without any tightness. The scent is an instant mood-lifter - a fresh citrusy aroma reminiscent of tangerine or yuzu. Love it!
ConsThere's not much to dislike, honestly! If I had to nitpick, I'm not a fan of dropper bottles (I can be quite lazy!), so a pump bottle would be nice. But the dropper does allow for easy control of the amount used. Oh, and since I have unusually sensitive skin, when I used this with a niacinamide ampoule, I felt a slight tingling sensation. It might be best to use this on its own!
TipTry applying this in the evening before bed rather than during the day when your skin might be more prone to irritation. Since it doesn't leave a heavy film on the skin, those with dry skin might want to follow up with a hydrating moisturizer or nourishing cream for extra moisture.

Here's what I love about it: - The fragrance is delightfully sweet with a fresh, fruity scent that I really enjoyed. - It absorbs well into the skin. I found the absorption to be incredibly quick! - There's no sticky feeling. After applying and letting it absorb, it doesn't leave a tacky finish but instead feels refreshingly light. - My complexion has brightened! After using it several times, I definitely noticed my skin tone becoming more radiant. - Personally, I didn't experience any tingling sensation.
Cons- The texture is slightly runny, which makes it flow quickly and can make controlling the amount a bit tricky.

I had a vitamin serum I was using, but it stung, so I wasn't reaching for it often and wanted to switch. This product, however, feels comfortable on my skin without major irritation. It's a great value with a generous size and a truly lovely scent. When I apply it before bed, I notice a visible brightening effect the next morning. It seems to strike a good balance between cost-effectiveness and quality ingredients. I'd recommend this to anyone hesitant about buying pricey competitor products with tiny amounts of vitamin serum. This serum tackles both hydration and brightening at once. I think it's even more hydrating than my separate hydrating serum!
ConsCompared to other serums, its absorption doesn't seem exceptionally fast. It doesn't sink in immediately, so I'd recommend applying it like a hydrating serum - pat it in thoroughly and wait a bit before applying your next cream.
TipI appreciated that it can be used both morning and night. Some competitor products are not recommended for daytime use. Also, due to its large volume, it comes with a longer applicator tip, which I personally liked. It allowed me to target and apply the product to my skin more precisely.

Even though I've only used it for a short period of a week, I could feel my skin becoming subtly brighter. However, the change isn't dramatic. - It absorbs quickly! I dislike serums that absorb slowly and leave a sticky residue on the skin, but this product absorbs fast and applies smoothly without any stickiness. - The large volume is satisfying. Most serums come in 30ml bottles, which run out quickly and need frequent replacement. This product is 60ml, so it should last much longer! - The product has a pleasant lemon scent. Even those sensitive to cosmetic fragrances should be able to use it comfortably. - I know Vitamin C is effective for fading acne scars. While I'm not sure about its effect on fresh, red blemishes after such a short time, I did notice a slight fading of older acne marks.
Cons- While it's fine for oily skin, it might be too drying for dry skin types to use alone in winter. Using it in combination with other products could increase satisfaction. - I experienced slight irritation when applying it to blemishes. Although using this product didn't cause or worsen breakouts, I did feel a very mild irritation, probably due to the Vitamin C. However, once absorbed, it was comfortable with no irritation!
TipFor noticeable brightening effects, consistency seems key! Don't be discouraged if you don't see immediate results. With patience and long-term use, you're likely to see the benefits.

After application, my skin had a subtle glow, which I liked because it wasn't due to oiliness but rather a natural radiance on smooth, matte skin. • Quick results without pilling It has a light texture and absorbs quickly into the skin without any stickiness. It was convenient to use as I could easily move on to the next step right after skincare. → It provided good hydration, and although I wasn't sure about its blemish-removing effect due to the short usage period, I can see some difference in the photos! Besides blemishes, it seems good for temporarily reducing redness due to its cooling effect. It's easy to apply lightly, making it suitable for daily skincare, especially recommended for those who want quick absorption. The scent is citrusy, similar to yuzu. When tested on the back of my hand, the fragrance wasn't noticeable after absorption unless I brought it close to my nose. Even during application, the scent was subtle, so personally, I didn't find it bothersome.
Cons• Experienced skin irritation on first use It might be because this was my first time using a vitamin-based skincare product, but I felt a slight tingling sensation on my skin when I first used it. Fortunately, it was fine from the second use onwards, but if you have sensitive skin, it might be best to start with a small amount and test it gradually.
