Packaging: The dropper bottle is hygienic and allows for precise control of the amount used. Texture: The watery consistency absorbs instantly into the skin. There's no residue or rich feeling left behind. Dead skin cell improvement: After using this product for about a week, my skin became incredibly soft! While dead skin cells aren't visible in photos, I can definitely feel how much smoother my skin texture is when I'm cleansing my face. Gentle formula: Usually, exfoliating products sting my skin, but I can use this morning and night before my skincare routine without any tingling sensation!
ConsThe scent isn't particularly pleasant... It's not unscented, but has a peculiar musty smell that I personally don't care for. The glass bottle makes it a bit heavy to carry around for travel. I'm not sure if it has any effect on brightening the complexion...
TipPersonally, I found that applying this product before my moisturizer in my skincare routine not only exfoliates but also seems to boost hydration, leaving my skin feeling even more moisturized!

I liked that I could apply it right after cleansing, but for those with dry skin, this alone won't provide enough hydration or moisture retention. You'll definitely need to follow up with your regular skincare routine. Personally, I found it non-irritating and was quite satisfied using it as a toner-like product.
ConsThe fermented enzyme-like scent was a bit off-putting, unfortunately.
TipIt works well as a toner, and you can even use it with cotton pads as a quick hydrating mask to boost moisture!

After applying, you need to gently pat it in for full absorption, and once you do, you can definitely feel the moisturizing effect. Also, among serums with droppers, some struggle to draw up the product, but this one works perfectly, which I absolutely love!
ConsWhile I didn't experience any irritation or blemishes, the fragrance was a bit bothersome.
TipOn particularly dry nights, during your bedtime skincare routine, apply a generous amount to your face and gently pat it in. Then, complete the rest of your routine before sleeping. You'll wake up to incredibly hydrated skin the next morning!

Texture - It's a very runny, water-like consistency that flows easily. Application - The bottle fits nicely in one hand, though the dropper feels a bit stiff. Due to its thin texture, it can quickly run down your face if you're not careful when applying it to your cheeks. On the plus side, it absorbs well into the skin! Scent - As someone sensitive to fragrances... the scent is quite strong, which makes it uncomfortable to use. It has a slightly tangy smell, reminiscent of new clothes. Review - While the product itself is great at removing dead skin cells and applies with a nice hydrating feel, the scent is a major drawback for me. It might work well as a mask if applied with a cotton pad! The thin consistency absorbs quickly without any stickiness, but you need to apply it fast. Otherwise, it might drip onto the floor or even get into your eyes when applying to your forehead.
ConsAlthough the product itself is good, the scent is too strong for my liking, so I don't reach for it often.

It's so runny that if you apply it directly to your face with the dropper, it just drips off. That's why I prefer to dispense it onto my hand first. At first, it feels like it's sitting on top of the skin, but it absorbs quickly. The morning after I first used it, I thought, 'Wait, something's different... My skin feels softer!' I wondered if it was just my imagination, but my skin texture really did feel smoother!
ConsThe scent is a bit... much? But since I'm not particularly sensitive to smells, it only bothered me when I deliberately sniffed it at first. It wasn't a major issue during regular use.

I love how it gently refines the skin with mild exfoliating ingredients. The 8 types of low and high molecular weight hyaluronic acid provide excellent hydration. As someone with dry skin, using this as the first serum step helps prep my skin and boosts the effectiveness of other skincare products. You can feel your skin becoming instantly smoother upon application. The fragrance-free formula is also a plus!
ConsWhile the water-like texture absorbs well, a slightly richer consistency might be even better. Although it's fragrance-free, there's a distinct scent from the fermented ingredients that some people might find polarizing.

It's not sticky at all, so I could use it comfortably even in the morning! After about two weeks of use, I noticed my skin texture became smoother and my complexion looked noticeably brighter.
ConsIt might not provide enough hydration for winter use, but when I paired it with an emulsion, I didn't experience any major issues. The scent isn't particularly pleasant though.
Tip1. Use warm palms to help the product absorb better! 2. Try layering it 2-3 times for enhanced effects!

It's the type of ampoule with almost no viscosity, so there's hardly any stickiness. It feels a bit distant from intense hydration though! I haven't seen any noticeable effects on dead skin cells yet... As someone with acne-prone skin, my main concern is whether it causes breakouts or not, and it doesn't seem to have any particular impact on acne, so it was fine for light use! I'm not dry-skinned, but as I've gotten older, my skin has become less oily. However, because I have acne-prone skin, I absolutely can't use heavy, oil-rich moisturizers. So I usually finish with a light emulsion. When I apply toner + this ampoule + emulsion (3 layers), my skin does tend to dry out quickly. So for those with dry skin, I'd recommend using it while ensuring a solid hydration routine! According to the instructions, for dead skin cell care, you should apply it with a damp cotton pad. I think you could do this without any irritation! Although the testing period was short and I haven't seen any specific effects yet, it seems like a decent product overall!
ConsIt has a slightly sour, strange smell. I'm not very sensitive to scents and prefer fragrance-free products, so it doesn't bother me much. But I've noticed many people are sensitive to fragrances. If you're sensitive to scents, you might want to skip this one.

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.Pros✔ Light yet firm finish At first, I thought it might be too lightweight as it's a water-based formula, but I was surprised by how it leaves a more substantial finish than expected once absorbed. It feels fresh and hydrating right after application, with a nice adherence to the skin without any deep dryness. It's perfect for those who find sticky products uncomfortable in summer. ✔ Effective dead skin cell care When applied with a cotton pad, it gently smooths out dead skin cells. It's versatile as it allows for light exfoliation and skin texture improvement without needing a separate peeling product. I've noticed it also helps makeup adhere more evenly when used before application. ✔ Reasonable price Skincare is best when used generously, and the affordable price makes it easy to apply liberally without worry. Considering its ingredients and effectiveness, it feels like a product with great value for money.
Cons✖ May not be enough on its own for dry skin While it provides hydration, it's not intensely moisturizing. Those with dry skin might prefer layering it or following up with a cream rather than using it alone. It might be fine in summer, but could feel a bit drying in winter. ✖ Slightly tangy scent If there's one thing I found less than ideal, it's the slightly tangy scent. It's not overpowering, but those sensitive to fragrances might have mixed feelings about it. Fortunately, the scent dissipates quickly as it absorbs into the skin, so it's not too bothersome.
Tip💡 For those with dry skin: After applying one layer and allowing it to absorb fully, try layering it once or twice more. Following up with a cream will help maintain moisture for much longer. 💡 For dead skin cell care: Maximize the exfoliating effect by gently wiping it along your skin's texture using a cotton pad, like you would with a toner. It's especially effective before makeup, leaving your skin smooth and prepped for better makeup application. 💡 Recommended refrigerated storage! Keeping it in the fridge before use provides a cooling effect for an even more refreshing experience. It's perfect for soothing heated skin in the summer.

What really impressed me was its gentle exfoliation. I used to have redness around my nose, and in winter, no matter how much moisturizer I applied, my skin would crack and flake by afternoon. This product made that issue disappear. It even cleared up those stubborn, tiny blemishes near my nose that wouldn't budge. I've been using this serum along with a glutathione product, and I'm not sure if it's the synergy or just the serum's effect, but I'll need to use it longer to tell. However, it's definitely not just the glutathione product alone (I've used that before without results, but saw improvement after adding this serum). I'm so satisfied with the results that I'll likely purchase it with my own money when I run out. While it's not super hydrating on its own, so you'll need a good moisturizer, I highly recommend it as a first step for improving skin texture and gentle dead skin cell removal.
ConsThe scent is... not great. It seems to be a common smell in galactomyces products, which I'm not a fan of. However, the effectiveness makes it worth using for me. It's not so overpowering that it's unusable.
TipI've noticed that using glutathione or vitamin C products after this seems to enhance their absorption. I recommend trying this combination.
