The spreadability and absorbency are all good. Before applying it to my skin, I thought it was too watery, but when I apply it, I feel a plump sensation and my skin immediately feels hydrated.
ConsI wanted to keep using it because of its moisturizing and plump feel, but after using it for 2-3 days, I started breaking out. I thought maybe it was because my condition was not good or that I used it with a device, so I took a break and tried it again, but I got the same trouble, so I don't think I can use the Anua Hyaluronic Acid Ampoule anymore.
TipIf there are no issues, I recommend it. Since I haven't used it for a long time, I don't have any tips.

The ingredients themselves didn't agree with my skin, and when I first used it, my skin texture and everything seemed to improve instantly, so I bought it right away. But after using it about 3 times, I started breaking out like crazy. What a waste of money and effort. ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
ConsI gave it to my sister because it didn't suit me, but at first she said it was good and applied it diligently, but later she said 'Why do I keep getting breakouts?' Hmm...

My skin type is extremely sensitive and dry, prone to allergies that show up quickly. I used this product for about a week, only in the evenings, as part of the event. Being cautious due to my sensitive skin, I only applied this product and my atopic cream to avoid any potential blemishes from ingredient interactions. This product alone wasn't quite hydrating enough for me. First off, I was surprised. Most serums or essences I've tried had a runny consistency, but this one was as fluid as water. It has a toner-like texture. You need to pat it in quickly after application, or it will run off due to its watery consistency. Despite this, it doesn't absorb as well as a toner and leaves a slightly sticky feeling, though it's not oily. This might be due to the collagen content. Usually, my skin stings a bit after cleansing, but this product immediately calmed and soothed it. It's quite effective for deep dryness. Layering helps, but while it absorbs well in the T-zone, it remains slightly sticky on the chin and sides of the face. I applied it twice, focusing on the T-zone, and it kept my skin hydrated until morning. I followed up with my atopic cream. In conclusion, it's great for quick relief of deep dryness. Layering is good, but too much can lead to stickiness. In my case, I stopped using it after a week due to a possible allergic reaction. While there were no visible symptoms, it didn't seem to agree with my skin internally.
ConsThe product claims to improve skin elasticity with collagen, but I couldn't really tell due to the short usage period. I experienced itching after use. I woke up with scratch marks from my nails, though this could be due to my sensitive skin - it might work fine for others. When I apply this product, the mask area (around my mouth and nose) immediately starts to tingle. I'm not sure if it's itchy or stinging, but it happens even when I use this product alone. I don't know why, but it goes away after cleansing.

The serum glides on smoothly, providing ample hydration to the skin. As I've gotten older, my skin has become a bit dry, but after using this, the moisturizing effect lasted, making fine lines less noticeable after makeup. Overall, it's a satisfying product.
ConsWhen applying the product, the consistency is quite runny, almost to the point of dripping. I wish it was slightly thicker in texture. I was surprised to feel a rather intense tingling sensation when I had a small cut on my face - not sure which ingredient caused that reaction.
TipWhen I go out wearing this serum under my makeup, people often comment on how hydrated my skin looks. This makes me think the product is working effectively, and I'm inclined to continue using it.

It absorbs well and has good absorption. After applying, my skin definitely feels firmer and tighter.
ConsI stopped using it after just 3 days when I got pustular blemishes. When things calmed down, I tried again for about 10 days, but kept getting small bumps, so I had to stop again. It's such a famous product that everyone raves about, so I couldn't give up and tried once more, but unfortunately it just wasn't right for my skin.

I used to buy PDRN eye drops from the pharmacy and apply them to my skin, but it was quite expensive and inconvenient to purchase frequently.
ConsOh my, this product is no joke when it comes to causing deep dryness. I replaced my usual hyaluronic acid with this and finished with a cream, but in just a few days, my entire face was covered in dead skin cells, and I could feel the deep dryness setting in. My skin became irritated and sensitive. My face turned red, blotchy, and felt a burning sensation! It even broke out! I'm considering throwing it away even though I just bought it. Unfortunately, I won't be repurchasing this product.
TipThis product is surprisingly rich. It feels more oily than hydrating. It doesn't seem to absorb well either. It's quite complicated. I wanted to leave a positive review, but I'm really disappointed.

Luckily, it was selected for The Hwahae Testers, so I've been using it for two weeks. After recently visiting a hot country, I got sunburned on my hands, feet, and face, resulting in peeling and dry skin. :) ✓ Easy to control the amount with the dropper ✓ Absorbs quickly due to its light texture ✓ Instantly moisturizes upon application ✓ Addresses deep dryness
Cons• Can feel sticky if you apply too much - It suggests layering twice, but that makes it too sticky • After applying and letting it absorb, small bumps appear on the skin, similar to an allergic reaction • At first it's fine, but gradually a distinct scent becomes noticeable
TipIt works well as a makeup base. I recommend trying the sample package first, and if it suits your skin, then purchase the full-size product.

I have oily, sensitive skin. Most products I received from The Hwahae Testers worked well for me, so I used this one without much hesitation... What a mistake that was! I was a bit worried because it felt slightly oily, but I thought it would be fine since I usually tolerate jojoba oil well. I was wrong... While it gives a glow due to its richness, it doesn't seem to address deep dryness. I tried using it on my body to avoid wasting it, but seeing how it caused rash-like reactions there too, it's clearly not suitable for my skin at all... If you have oily and super sensitive skin, I recommend patch testing first or avoiding this product altogether, even if you usually tolerate oils well!
ConsInstead of firm blemishes, I developed an allergic reaction-like rash all over my face

My skin is quite sensitive, and usually breaks out or gets itchy with random products, but not with this one - which is fantastic. When applied before makeup, it's like a hydrating shield that locks in moisture, making my face gleam. It's super rich, so some might find it a bit sticky. Perhaps because of this, my makeup adheres beautifully. When I go out wearing this under my makeup, my friends always compliment the glow on my face. Personally, as someone who doesn't mind rich, slightly sticky products, this has been a great find for me. I've been recommending it to all my friends! Functionally, it seems like an excellent product. The packaging is also gorgeous - I love its deep blue color. I'll definitely repurchase when I run out!
ConsWhile it's perfect for use before makeup in the morning, I noticed some itchiness and minor reactions when applied at night. So I only use it before putting on makeup.
TipThe formula is incredibly fluid, so once you drop it on your skin, the serum can quickly run off. You need to have your hands ready on your face before you apply it to prevent it from dripping.

The texture is similar to a toner, and when applied after toner at the essence step, it absorbs exceptionally well and creates a natural glow.
ConsMy personal drawback is that I have sensitive skin prone to developing small blemishes when cosmetics don't quite agree with me. When I apply this product to my forehead, I notice a slight increase in these tiny blemishes. As a result, I've been avoiding using it on my forehead.
TipFollowing the tips in the usage instructions, mixing it with sunscreen or makeup products creates a beautiful natural glow. However, the longevity of the effect is somewhat disappointing.
