BRIGHT DARK SPOT ESSENCE

No Brightening Effect

Doesn't Sit on Skin

Doesn't Sting

Easy to Apply

Lightweight

Pleasant Scent

Not Sticky

Moisturizing

Among high-performance, potent products, many tend to be sticky or don't absorb well. This serum, however, is excellent for mixing with high-concentration vitamin C, retinol, or powder-type functional products! When I used it with vitamin C, it significantly reduced the typical stickiness, making the combination much more pleasant to use!

However... despite its name suggesting effectiveness for dark spots, I'm not sure if it really shows results for hyperpigmentation and blemishes. I don't have dark spots, but I tried it for blemishes and their marks. I didn't notice any significant fading of marks or rapid improvement. I ended up using it just like a regular hydrating serum... Considering that, it feels a bit disappointing given it's not exactly a budget-friendly option.

The texture and scent are absolutely lovely! It's lightweight and easy to apply, making me reach for it often. It's a great go-to product when you're in a rush and need quick hydration. It absorbs well into the skin, and overall, I've been using it without any issues.

브라이트닝 기미 에센스

I use this on days when I'm taking a break from my IOPE retinol line. I feel reassured when I apply it generously, focusing on my cheek area where I'm concerned about dark spots.

There's not much to criticize. I was amazed that it applied so well without irritation, even on my sensitive skin.

I was pleasantly surprised by this essence. Despite being a functional product, it has an excellent texture that absorbs well without pilling, leaving the skin deeply hydrated without any stickiness. While IOPE typically uses retinol for wrinkle and pore care, they've come out with this product targeting dark spots. After trying a sample, I immediately purchased the full-size version.

I have super sensitive, dry skin, and usually have to wash off products immediately if they contain incompatible ingredients. However, this one worked wonderfully for me. It even leaves my skin so moisturized that it's sufficient on its own during summer! The hydration level and texture remind me of the Super Bounce Serum.

The application and absorption are truly exceptional, with the product sinking in completely without any residue. I bought this because I noticed more dark spots appearing in my 30s, and I feel it's been quite effective, especially combined with my intensive skincare routine using AMOREPACIFIC and IOPE products.
