It goes on smoothly and sinks into the skin well.
ConsFirst off, the yellow color is quite intense. It's a bit off-putting, to be honest.
TipRecommendedHowever, it doesn't seem to provide much hydration.

ConsThe color is way too yellow, so I only apply it once a week! I'm not sure about its effectiveness yet.
TipRecommendedYou need to apply it in an extremely thin layer.

I had been using other products before without any side effects or blemishes, so I felt comfortable applying it nightly. I applied a small amount to my forehead, around the eyes, nasolabial folds, and neck. It felt moisturizing without being too sticky. I usually prepped my skin with a steam towel or massage before application. I've noticed that the crow's feet around my eyes, which appear when I smile, seem to have faded a bit. I focused on applying the product carefully around my eye area. While it's unrealistic to expect wrinkles to disappear completely in just a few weeks, I'm impressed enough to consider repurchasing this product.
ConsThe quantity is way too small for the price. Also, I'm not a fan of the packaging. It would be better if they changed it to a more visible container or a tube format.
TipRecommendedDuring the oily summer months when pores tend to enlarge and skin loses elasticity, I recommend maintaining a consistent routine. After massaging, use a steam towel and exfoliate once or twice a week to remove dead skin cells. Applying the product to well-prepped skin significantly improves its absorption. For best results, apply a small amount thoroughly to cleansed and toned skin.

The texture is neither too runny nor too thick, making it easy to apply. The scent might be divisive, but I wouldn't say it's particularly pleasant. With regular use, I feel like my pores are gradually shrinking. As someone with super sensitive skin, I'm happy to report that this product didn't cause any blemishes!
ConsRecommendedWhile there's nothing specifically disappointing, it does make your complexion noticeably yellow... haha!

After using it for about a week, I noticed my T-zone skin became a shade brighter, and the pores in that area seemed slightly less noticeable. The texture isn't thick but feels refreshing like an eye cream. It didn't cause any blemishes or dryness. It actually seemed to reduce sebum production, helping to balance the oil and moisture in my skin. I've tried other bakuchiol serums before, but this one feels more concentrated, so I'm excited to see the long-term effects with consistent use. The first photo is before use, and the second is after a week of application.
ConsRecommendedThere wasn't anything particularly bad about it, and it absorbs well. The only downside is that it can only be applied at night, but otherwise, it's great.

Retinal has always worked well for my skin, so I had high expectations when using this product. First off, I was extremely satisfied with the ingredients, and even with my sensitive skin, I could use it without any irritation! They say when first using retinal, you should apply a small amount to your skin and gradually increase the quantity. But since this ingredient has always suited me well, I wasn't worried. The good points are just as I briefly summarized at the beginning. First, I loved that my skin didn't react sensitively. It absorbs well and isn't sticky at all! There's a slight yellow tint after application, but don't worry - it disappears! The next day, it feels like my pores have tightened up. My makeup goes on beautifully!
ConsRecommendedIt's difficult to achieve dramatic effects with skincare products alone. But consistent home care will be good for my future self, right?

The design is absolutely lovely, which immediately caught my eye! 2. The packaging exudes such care and attention to detail that I felt uplifted even before using it. 3. The usage instructions are incredibly thorough. After a quick read, I applied it following my toner for evening out my complexion. I mixed a rice grain-sized amount with my emulsion and applied it all over my face, avoiding the eye and mouth areas, allowing it to absorb. Having experienced great benefits from retinol for improving skin texture without side effects, I found the Bakuchiol serum equally gentle. After absorption, I lightly applied it to areas with pigmentation and old acne marks, finishing with a hydrating cream. The color is a vibrant forsythia yellow. I was initially concerned about staining, but it's absolutely nothing to worry about! While it was initially recommended to use every two weeks, I've been using it every other day and monitoring the changes. Brightening and pigmentation improvements may take longer to see results, but after just half a bottle, I could feel a smoother, softer skin texture the next morning during cleansing, similar to retinol effects! My morning skincare routine seems to absorb better, and I feel like my makeup has been applying more smoothly lately. I'll continue to use this vegan-friendly, ingredient-packed Retinal Bakuchiol serum consistently. *I highly recommend using it in your nighttime skincare routine as suggested! With the strong summer sun, there's no need to use it in the morning, even with sunscreen. Instead, take extra care applying it generously in your evening routine.*
ConsSo far, I haven't experienced any drawbacks in using this product.
TipRecommendedRecommended for evening use! The difference you feel when cleansing the next morning is remarkable!

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsWell, I've been a long-time user of retinol creams. When I saw the product description mentioning retinal, which is said to be more stable than retinol, along with bakuchiol, which is similar to collagen, I got really excited. I thought, 'Wow, if this works well for me, it would be amazing!' So I eagerly tested it out.
ConsThose with sensitive skin, please be very careful! I have sensitive skin too. Ironically, I never had this issue when using retinol. When I first used this product, I applied one pump all over my face. It's essential to control the amount, and when you start, apply just a tiny bit!
TipUnfortunately, right after applying it, my skin reacted the next day. Throughout the entire Hwahae Testers period, it didn't calm down. Only now is my skin slowly returning to its original state. I'm not sure what the problem was, but this was the only change in my skincare routine.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsAs this was my first time using retinol, I applied just a rice-grain sized amount to specific areas. I focused on my nose and butterfly zone on my cheeks, using it every other day. After three applications, I temporarily stopped. Though I didn't apply much, I didn't experience peeling. However, the treated areas felt like the skin had thinned. It was as if the skin barrier was compromised, causing a stinging sensation and redness. I also noticed some blemishes appearing. After discontinuing use, I applied a barrier cream for 4-6 days, which reduced the stinging. Since I only used it a few times, I'm not sure about its effectiveness.
ConsRecommendedEven when using a tiny amount, the pump dispenses more product than expected. This might be fine for those already accustomed to retinol, but as a beginner, I was surprised by how much came out initially.

I started noticing effects on my pores I'll need to use it longer to see results on wrinkles (fingers crossed)
ConsRecommendedThe packaging doesn't allow you to see how much product is left, which is a bit inconvenient, but not a deal-breaker
