My face tends to get warm easily. - Absorption: This is what I liked the most! It has a consistency similar to runny nose mucus, but it's not sticky and absorbs well into the skin with a light feel. It's great to apply right after washing your face. - Ingredients: I love that it contains vitamin fruit extract instead of purified water! It also includes niacinamide, which is fantastic. While the Hwahae Testers period wasn't long enough to notice significant brightening effects, I believe using up a whole bottle consistently would be beneficial for the skin. - I have sensitive skin that tends to get warm easily, but this product didn't cause any irritation or tingling. The texture was pleasant enough for consistent use both morning and evening.
Cons- Scent: The fragrance is a matter of personal preference, and for me, it's a dislike! Since it's a vitamin ampoule, I expected a sweet and tangy scent, but to me, it smelled more like a citrus-scented dish soap or shampoo. However, I appreciated that the scent wasn't overpowering when applied to the skin.
Tip- As the ampoule absorbs well, it may lack a bit in hydration, so make sure to layer it with a richer emulsion or cream for added moisture.

There was no issue with makeup pilling or the product not absorbing well into the skin. In fact, my skin felt more supple and improved overall. Effectiveness: Despite the short usage period, I noticed an overall reduction in facial redness. Around the fourth day of use, my roommate even commented that my face looked brighter lately! The brightening effect is definitely top-notch.
ConsScent: As it's a vitamin ampoule, it had a citrusy scent reminiscent of green tangerine or orange. While I personally love citrus scents, I think it might be a matter of personal preference for others.
TipTip: If you use this product with the popular Daiso wrapping mask, you can maintain that 'egg-white skin' look even until the next day!

It's not watery thin, yet it provides decent hydration (though you'll still need to layer a cream) and leaves a pleasantly matte finish. The user experience is truly excellent! The scent is described as lemon, but it's closer to yuzu. It's identical to the aroma of yuzu tea we often drink. I was startled by the vibrant yellow color of the product. With its sugary yuzu marmalade scent and bright yellow hue, it almost feels like something you should eat rather than apply! Regardless, the color and fragrance make application a refreshing experience. I was concerned about potential tingling due to its high concentration, but there's no discomfort at all. Even when I used it after exfoliating, when my skin was slightly sensitive, there was zero irritation. While it's too soon to claim definitive brightening results, I've noticed a slight improvement in my complexion even in this short time. Vitamin products often have a way of making your skin tone look clearer, and although I worried the lack of irritation might mean it wasn't working, I can see it's starting to take effect. With consistent use, I'm sure the results will be significant! I'd recommend this to anyone looking for a non-irritating vitamin product.
ConsThe toy-like color and scent? It's too reminiscent of yuzu tea. Makes me want to drink it every time I apply.
TipIt's best to apply vitamin products when your skin is slightly acidic. If you've used an acidic cleanser, apply it right away. If you've used an alkaline cleanser, use a toner first to balance your skin's pH before applying for optimal results!

With winter here, my skin had become drier, and I noticed white flakes, which was concerning. I was thrilled to win this product! As a guy, I used to feel awkward going to cosmetics stores, often relying on recommendations. Thanks to the Hwahae app, I can now research and buy products on sale, which I'm really happy about. Winning this allows me to check if it suits my skin and learn about different ingredients. Initially, I had dark spots, freckles, visible pores, and my skin was still dark from summer tanning. But as time passed after applying this, my skin started brightening up. It must be thanks to the sea buckthorn extract. I'm glad that new dark spots and freckles aren't appearing, and existing ones seem to be fading. The product has a yellowish tint and a runny consistency. It absorbs quickly, leaving my skin feeling hydrated, which I love. It's said to be good for wrinkles too, and I think I see some improvement there. The scent is citrusy - lemon or orange perhaps - which I found pleasant. My dull, whitish skin and darker areas are gradually improving. No blemishes either, likely thanks to this product. I'm satisfied and plan to keep using the remaining amount. I'm grateful for the chance to try this product. Unlike some recommended products I've bought before, the ones featured on the Hwahae app really deliver satisfaction. My complexion has brightened, which makes me feel great. If you have skin concerns like mine, I think this product is worth trying.
ConsThere wasn't really anything disappointing. If I had to nitpick, there's a slightly artificial scent, but it's not as strong as perfumes or air fresheners, which I'm not particularly fond of. Don't misunderstand though, it's not overpowering.
TipFor best results, make sure to cleanse your pores thoroughly before applying. Don't get lazy with your skincare routine just because it's cold - I've noticed a real difference when I take the time to cleanse properly versus when I rush through it.

Texture The consistency is similar to a runny nose, absorbing quickly into the skin without sitting on top. 2. Volume While most brightening and blemish serums come in 30-50ml bottles, this product offers 60ml, allowing for more long-term use. 3. Hydration As someone with dry skin, I found this serum provided sufficient hydration even in cold, dry weather. It felt moisturizing from the moment of application, and my skin remained comfortable after absorption. 4. Irritation Despite using a gentle exfoliant the night before, this product didn't cause any significant irritation or stinging. It felt as soothing as applying a hydrating ampoule. 5. Effectiveness Since The Hwahae Testers reviews are written within a week of receiving the product, it's challenging to assess long-term effects. However, when I look at my skin after showering in the evening, it appears clearer, and my skin texture and blemishes seem more refined. I suppose that's a sign it's working!
ConsIf I had to nitpick, it would be the scent. While not overwhelmingly bothersome, it smells like lemon-scented dish soap. Rather than being refreshing, it's distinctly 'soapy', which can feel a bit out of place. Fortunately, the scent dissipates quickly, so it wasn't a major issue.
TipI highly recommend this as a first serum to use right after cleansing! The product itself is bursting with hydration, so I found that applying this followed by a moisturizing cream was perfect for my skin. Also, when using vitamin-based products like this, using sunscreen isn't just recommended, it's essential! Make sure to apply thoroughly when going out to prevent premature aging of your skin.
