  Pros

  I was pleasantly surprised by how gentle this functional product is on the skin. The texture applies so smoothly, which I absolutely love. The vibrant yellow color slightly tints your complexion, but since I only use it at night, the color change isn't really an issue. What's truly impressive is that it's not only anti-aging but also vegan certified - definitely a trustworthy product worth using.

  Cons

  As someone with combination dehydrated skin and enlarged pores, I think it'll take extended use to really see if this has a positive impact on my skin.

  Tip

  Remember to wash it off before the morning sun hits your face! You don't want to expose this product to sunlight.

  Pros

  - Usage period and method: I used it every other evening for 2 weeks. - Experience: Since I'm already using retinol, I was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't irritating even when I applied it generously from the start! 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.

  Cons

  Using it only every other evening means that two weeks might be a bit short to fully judge its effectiveness.

  Pros

  The Hwahae Testers • Texture: A yellow emulsion with a cream-like consistency that applies smoothly! • Scent: I applied a tiny amount (rice grain-sized), so I didn't notice any particular fragrance! • Experience: I've been using it every other day for the 2-week adaptation period, and there were no blemishes or irritation! I also applied it to my neck as I was concerned about neck wrinkles, and they seem to have slightly faded!

  Cons

  There weren't any downsides! Just remember to apply a very small amount and distribute it evenly on your face. Use it only in the evening! Make sure to cleanse thoroughly the next morning.

  Tip

  Since you only need to apply a rice grain-sized amount, I bought a silicone pack brush (available at Daiso or Olive Young) to help distribute it evenly. I squeeze out the product, then dab it on my cheeks, nose, and chin to distribute the amount, then spread it widely with the silicone brush. This way, you can cover your whole face even with a small amount! Afterward, be sure to apply a moisturizer or ampoule!

  Pros

  I was a bit apprehensive about trying a retinal and bakuchiol serum for the first time, but it turned out to be amazing!! 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!!

  Cons

  It 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!

  Tip

  I 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!!!..

  Pros

  A vegan product containing retinal, free from artificial fragrances and colorants. Bakuchiol: a natural retinol alternative that promotes collagen production, similar to retinol in effectiveness. Scent: Fresh and pleasant (not overwhelming or irritating) --- Wrinkles: Slight improvement noticeable the day after use. Consistent use may lead to more significant results. Pores: No visible improvement after 4 uses over a week (every other day). However, skin texture appears more refined after cleansing the next day. Brightening: No noticeable effects yet (used during 3 days of outdoor activities in 30°C+ weather with sunscreen from morning to evening, slight tanning occurred). Consistent use in a controlled environment may yield brightening effects. --- Irritation: None. Those with oily skin should pay attention to oil-moisture balance in previous skincare steps. Texture (absorption): Smooth and rich consistency, non-sticky. Apply evenly with care. As shown in the photo, the product has a vibrant yellow color that creates a slight yellow tint when applied. The color is quite intense! However, there's no staining, and the tint disappears over time. While it claims to be effective for brightening, wrinkles, and pores, short-term use naturally doesn't show significant changes. There seems to be a slight improvement in wrinkles the morning after use. Consistent application may yield better results. 🌿 Expected to be more effective for wrinkles and pores than brightening. 🌿 Avoid daytime use and introduce gradually after a skin adaptation period. 🌿 Be cautious of blemishes if used with heavy skincare products. A thoughtful postcard with usage precautions was included, showing the brand's effort to ensure customer satisfaction and ease of use.

  Cons

  Due to the product's characteristics, skin may appear yellow immediately after application. This is not staining, so there's no need to worry. It seems to be a property of the ingredients.

  Tip

  One pump dispenses a sufficient amount. Always perform a patch test before first use! ___ After cleansing and toning, apply to areas of concern. Depending on your skin condition, use every other day (refer to instructions, 2 weeks) or daily after an adaptation period. IMPORTANT: Use only at night! Always use sunscreen when going out during the day!

  Pros

  I used this product every single day from May 29th to June 9th without fail! I've always been interested in wrinkle improvement and reducing dark spots, so I was really curious about this product and applied to review it. At first, the bright yellow liquid surprised me, but as I continued using it, I felt my smile lines improving and my skin becoming more elastic. Day by day, I noticed my complexion brightening, which left me feeling very satisfied with the product. I often experience inflammatory blemishes when using cosmetics, so I pay close attention to ingredients. While individual results may vary, this product didn't cause any blemishes for me, which really boosted my trust in it. I definitely plan to keep using it in the future!

  Cons

  I wish the trial period had been longer so I could have reported more specific changes! Also, I noticed my skin felt a bit dry after use, so make sure to follow up with plenty of hydration. And one more thing - my skin definitely seemed more sensitive to sunlight, so don't forget to apply sunscreen religiously!

  Tip

  Make sure to finish with a hydration-packed moisturizer! And remember to slather on plenty of sunscreen during the day, it's absolutely essential!

  Pros

  I was pleased to feel a noticeable difference compared to my previous serum. Brightening, anti-aging, and pore reduction were my biggest skin concerns lately, and among these three, the effect I immediately noticed was pore reduction! Despite using only a small amount of serum, I felt my pores became more elastic and reduced by the next day! While I didn't feel an immediate surge of hydration upon application, it seemed to provide moisture throughout the night, leaving my skin with a glow and a soft, supple texture.

  Cons

  There weren't any particular aspects I found disappointing while using this product.

  Tip

  Since it's recommended to use this product every other day, I think consistent use will likely yield even better results.

  Pros

  After applying, you can feel your face tightening up. After the third application, I noticed skin peeling around my nose and smile lines. It feels like my skin is regenerating. From the fifth use, I experienced some redness, but it disappeared after two more applications. My skin feels smoother. While pore reduction isn't particularly noticeable, there's an overall improvement, so I think continued use will yield good results.

  Cons

  The scent isn't overpowering, but there's a medicinal smell. The yellow color makes your face look jaundiced when applied, which is unfortunate. While they do provide usage instructions, I think they should give more thorough warnings about potential side effects and purging reactions.

  Tip

  Initially, I applied it every other day, but now I use it daily. The key is to apply a small amount. Be aware that it may cause a burning sensation.

  Pros

  First of all, I'm grateful to The Hwahae Testers for selecting me to try this wonderful product. I've always been concerned about the pores on my nose, brightening my skin, and reducing smile lines. While there weren't dramatic changes in such a short time, I noticed some improvements in my smile lines. Not just on my nose, but I observed that my makeup applies more smoothly all over, suggesting a reduction in pores across my face. Previously, when using slightly drying cushion foundations, they would sometimes look patchy or too thick, but now I notice they adhere thinly and evenly. Rather than saying my face became whiter, I'd say my complexion looks brighter overall. Usually, my bare face looks quite dull and dark, but this seems to have improved. I appreciate that even a small amount is effective, which proves the product is packed with beneficial ingredients. There's a slight lemon scent, but it's so subtle it's almost unscented. This means there's no strong smell when applied, allowing for comfortable use before bed. The finish isn't moisturizing but rather leaves the skin feeling soft and powdery, which would be great for those who prefer that type of texture.

  Cons

  While I didn't find any major drawbacks, there were a few minor points: Although the powdery finish might be appealing to some, for me it felt like it dried out my skin a bit too much. As this was my first time using retinal and bakuchiol on my skin, I experienced some blemishes on my nose and forehead, possibly due to an adjustment period. As mentioned in the product description, the serum has a very intense yellow color which can sometimes leave a slight yellow tint on the face. However, this disappears by morning or with proper blending, so it's not a significant issue.

  Tip

  As stated in the description, it's best to use this product only at night as the ingredients are sensitive to light. If you're new to these ingredients, it's crucial to start by using the product every other day for the first two weeks as an adjustment period. I found that applying a very hydrating moisturizer after this product eliminated the dryness issue I mentioned earlier. Be careful not to apply too much, as it can temporarily give your face a yellow tint - just use an amount about the size of a grain of rice.
