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!

I used to use The Ordinary's retinol, which improved my skin texture and slightly reduced my acne, but those pesky bumps never completely disappeared. I thought it might be due to the oil content, so after using The Ordinary for over a year, I switched to Vider Skin. So far, I haven't had any new breakouts! If retinol mixed with oils didn't work for you, I think this might be worth a try!
ConsThere's nothing particularly bad to mention. The product is yellowish, but it doesn't make your face look yellow when applied in small amounts.
TipI've been using retinol for a long time, but it can cause irritation. So I apply my skincare in this order: toner, hydrating serum, retinol, then soothing cream. A pea-sized amount is just perfect!

Cons▶️For those with dry skin, it might not provide quite enough hydration, so you may need to layer a small amount of moisturizer on top. ▶️While high-performance products can sometimes cause minor blemishes, this one is less irritating compared to other skincare products, so you can use it with peace of mind. ▶️The only downside is the small 20ml size, which feels a bit insufficient.
Tip▶️Rather than simply applying a small amount on top during your nighttime routine, which could lead to dryness, try mixing it in a 1:1 ratio with a hydrating pore-care ampoule or essence for better absorption. ▶️As it's a highly concentrated product, it's better to apply a moderate amount thinly and evenly rather than using too much. This seems to maximize its effectiveness.

I was initially worried about skin irritation, which is common with retinol, but this product is genuinely gentle - no skin flare-ups at all! It's crucial to apply it in the evening. After two weeks of use, I've noticed some improvement in skin texture, but what really impressed me was how much firmer my skin felt the next day! I think it's because I've been diligent with moisturizing alongside the retinol. There's a slight yellow tint upon application, but it disappears as the product absorbs. I appreciated the nearly fragrance-free formula, and overall, this seems like an excellent retinol product for beginners due to its gentleness.
ConsAfter two weeks of use, I haven't seen immediate effects on pore size reduction or blemish improvement. It seems like it might take more consistent use to see those results.
TipWhen using retinol, it's recommended to start with a pea-sized amount and apply it every other day. I noticed some irritation when I got too eager with the application. Also, it's crucial to follow up with a good moisturizer after applying retinol to prevent any dryness!

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.ProsMy impressions after using it for just under two weeks: 1. I noticed a difference in my skin texture after evening use. My rough, acne-prone skin felt like baby-soft skin in the morning after using bakuchiol. This might be the first improvement I've seen. Also, my makeup applies so much better now. It feels like I'm applying makeup right after exfoliating. 2. The dryness is gone. While I'm not sure if there's a direct correlation, my once-parched skin now has a dewy appearance. I used to be glued to my mist, but now I can get through work without it. (And I'm someone who used to go through a bottle of Dalba mist every month!) While I haven't noticed improvements in skin elasticity or brightening yet, these two benefits alone make me really happy with the product.
ConsI don't have any particular complaints! I just hope my pores will tighten up soon. Oh! It does leave a yellowish tint like jaundice when applied. It's a bit funny, so I only show my family.
TipThey say to use it every other day, but since I've been consistently using retinol, I used it daily without any skin irritation. However, everyone's skin is different, so make sure to patch test!

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.

While I'm not sure if my nasolabial folds have faded, I feel like my pores have somewhat reduced! Above all, what I really noticed was that my skin texture improved dramatically...so smooth...I used just a rice-grain sized amount every other night for two weeks as instructed, and the results are fantastic!!
ConsIt might be better to use small amounts only on problem areas instead of applying it all over your face, as it can cause a tingling sensation!! I experienced some discomfort when I applied it all over my face. Just be cautious about that and you should be fine!
TipI applied the serum only to my problem areas (nasolabial folds, pores), then generously applied a hydrating serum all over my face, followed by a modeling mask. The results were truly remarkable!!!..

But after trying it, I realized those concerns were totally unnecessary! Instead of applying it in small amounts to specific areas, I prefer to mix it with my regular moisturizer for an all-over, gentle application. I've been using it as part of my night care routine, and wow - the difference in my skin the next morning is remarkable! My complexion looks noticeably clearer and more radiant. I can really feel the improvement in my skin texture, which makes me absolutely thrilled with this product! The serum's packaging is adorably designed, and while the volume might seem small, a little goes a long way. I think this bottle will last quite a while!
ConsThere's not really anything to complain about! Though if they could adjust the price a bit, that would be great!

ConsCan only be used at night and seems pricey for the amount Would repurchase if the results prove effective!
TipAfter applying retinal serum, layering a light emulsion adds extra hydration, resulting in smoother skin with a glow the next day compared to the previous day (Will update on whitening and anti-wrinkle effects after further use)

I took before and after photos without any editing, and the results are amazing. Even to the naked eye, my skin texture looks more refined! (I just realized my neck has texture....) I used a rice grain-sized amount every other day! Alternating between this retinal cream and a gentle regenerating cream (from Bioderma). The texture is incredibly smooth. Compared to retinol creams I've used in the past, this feels creamier. What's unique is its distinctly yellow tint. At first, I was surprised, but it turned out to be a great advantage! With retinol and retinal, you need to apply a tiny amount (rice grain-sized), and with white formulas, I always wondered if I'd covered everywhere evenly. This often led me to use a bit more, which caused issues. But with this, the yellow tint remains visible on the face, yet it spreads smoothly. You can see where you've applied it as those areas have a slight yellow tinge, so you know it's evenly distributed. The scent is aromatic and not off-putting at all! ⭐️ I read that it works well on the neck too, and since I've been concerned about my neck wrinkles lately, I tried it there. The results are incredibly satisfying - my neck wrinkles really seem to have faded!
ConsOf course, being a retinol product, it can cause tingling if overused. I saw such good results on my neck wrinkles that I used the same amount two days in a row, and felt a slight burning sensation when washing my face in the morning. So I took a two-day break after that! Don't get greedy with it!
TipI found it worked best when I applied a small amount after my basic skincare routine, just before the cream step, waited about 10 minutes, then finished with a generous layer of moisturizer. It's probably best to use gentle, non-irritating products for your basic skincare and moisturizer! This helps minimize irritation while maximizing the benefits.
