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!
ConsWhile there's nothing specifically disappointing, it does make your complexion noticeably yellow... haha!

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

Overall rating: 5 stars. While I haven't done any pore size measurements, I can confidently say that my sebum production has decreased and my skin texture has become more even. For my very oily skin, this was truly satisfying! Application: It glides on smoothly. There's a slight yellow tint and it may seem to sit on top of the skin at first, but don't worry - this is temporary. The texture isn't thick, and it feels very hydrating. Hydration: I absolutely love that it feels almost oil-free. Even those with dry skin might enjoy this in summer! It leaves the skin feeling moisturized and fresh, making it a year-round recommendation for oily skin types. Irritation and blemishes: I was using Retinol before this and was concerned about potential irritation, but there was none at all. It's just like any other serum. No irritating fragrance, no tingling sensation, and no small pimples or other blemishes. Overall, I'm very satisfied and expect to use this all summer long for hydration and pore care.
ConsThe instructions say to use a rice grain-sized amount, but I found it a bit tricky to control the quantity.
TipAfter application, it might look a bit yellow like you've applied paint, but just massage it in well for absorption.

Luckily, I received this great product as a Hwahae Tester! This product contains retinal, known for its anti-wrinkle and pore-refining properties. Given its potent ingredients, it's recommended to apply a small amount consistently for best results. I used it every other day for about a week and a half (10 days). While there weren't any dramatic changes yet, I could definitely feel my skin texture becoming more refined! When applying makeup, I noticed my pores were much less noticeable, and my skin looked smoother - I loved it! I usually dislike products with strong fragrances, but this one has a subtle, refreshing vitamin scent that's almost unscented. The lightweight, hydrating serum texture makes it easy to apply without feeling heavy. I also pay attention to packaging design, and this one is beautifully eye-catching - it grabs my attention every day! The helpful instruction leaflet that came with it was great too. Since I can feel it's having some effect, I plan to continue using it consistently! If I notice any significant improvements or side effects, I'll be sure to update my review.
ConsWhile not exactly a flaw of the product, it's crucial to carefully control the amount you apply due to the main ingredient being retinal! The instruction leaflet that came with the delivery emphasizes using only a rice grain-sized amount. This advice should absolutely not be forgotten! In fact, when I applied slightly more than a rice grain, I experienced a burning sensation the next day. Having never felt irritation on my face before, it caught me off guard. Fortunately, I was able to soothe it with an over-the-counter blemish cream! For those using this product, please make sure to squeeze out only a small amount. If you accidentally dispense too much, I recommend distributing it over several areas. I'm not sure if it's due to the ingredients, but it leaves a slight yellow tint on the skin, which might make it difficult to use before going out. Since vitamin-based products are also sensitive to UV rays, it's probably best to apply it in the evening after cleansing, just before bed.
TipFor first-time users, follow the instructions on the leaflet: apply a rice grain-sized amount every other day for 14 days to areas of concern (wrinkles, enlarged pores). If you experience any irritation, stop using it immediately and apply a soothing ointment! Also, remember that moisturizing after applying these types of creams is crucial. After applying the serum, follow up with a moisturizing cream for even better results!

The cream's deep yellow color makes you look a bit like a creature when applied, but I liked that it made it easy to see where I was applying it. - Results: My main concern was pores, so I was hoping for improvements in that area. Looking at the photos, I can see improvements in elasticity and fine lines! I didn't expect much in terms of hydration, but despite having combination dehydrated skin, I didn't feel any dryness.
ConsUsing it only every other evening means that two weeks might be a bit short to fully judge its effectiveness.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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.ProsHere's my review of the Retinal Bakuchiol Serum after using it for about two weeks. When I first opened the box, I was touched to find a letter and usage instructions inside! I focused on checking if it had any effect on pores, as retinol is said to help minimize them. Although the usage period wasn't very long, so I couldn't see dramatic results, I do feel like my pores have slightly reduced. I think with longer use, I might see even better results. The serum is quite a bright yellow color, so when you apply it, your face looks very yellow! There's a slight scent to it - it reminds me of a vitamin serum I used before. I'm not particularly sensitive to fragrances, so it didn't bother me much.
ConsEven though I don't have super sensitive skin, I did feel a slight tingling sensation at first. As mentioned in the instructions, I started with a small amount and gradually increased it. Now I'm using it without any discomfort.
TipI apply it 3 hours before bedtime and wipe off any excess with water just before sleeping.

Since retinal can be irritating, I applied a tiny amount to areas with noticeable pores before bed. Waking up, I could visibly see that my pores had shrunk. However, for acne-prone skin, it's better to use it periodically rather than daily. The scent is neutral.
ConsIt's best to avoid applying it around the nose area. I noticed a few folliculitis-like blemishes popping up there!
TipIf you apply this and then layer on a rich moisturizer before bed, you'll wake up to skin with an Inner Glow the next morning.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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 someone with sensitive combination dehydrated skin, I've noticed that if my oil and moisture balance isn't properly maintained, it immediately shows in my pores. However, since this product is specifically designed to target pores, I saw definite results when I used it. Even with just one application at night, within a few days my pores had significantly reduced. When I touch my face while cleansing, my skin feels incredibly soft, making me think this product is truly worth its price. It absorbs quickly without any stickiness, which is perfect.
ConsIt turns you yellow like you're applying turmeric powder, making you look like Pikachu. I know it can't be helped, but it makes an already funny face look even funnier. Also, the scent isn't particularly pleasant.

As someone with sensitive, acne-prone skin, I applied it with a mix of worry and hope. I was surprised by its vibrant yellow color, and even more amazed at how quickly it absorbed. The pores where I applied it visibly improved! My complexion seemed to brighten too! I loved that there was no irritation. My pores appear smaller and my skin texture has improved.
ConsSince I have super sensitive skin, I might need a bit of an adjustment period as I experienced a few blemishes. But I think it'll be great if I slowly adapt to it!
TipIt seems like it might take some time to adapt to my unique skin type.

The texture is neither too thin nor too heavy, just right. It absorbs well with only a slight rich feeling. The definite changes I saw in a week were in my pores and firmness!!!! I can't say for certain about the complexion since I took photos in natural light, but both in pictures and in reality, the improvement in firmness was noticeable. As the skin became firmer, it also had the effect of tightening pores.
ConsWhile it works wonders for firmness, it doesn't do much for blemishes. Retinol is known to be primarily effective for firmness, so I manage blemishes with vitamin products.
