  Pros

  As someone in their 40s with sensitive, dry skin, I live near the coast, but when humidity drops, my skin gets incredibly parched. Now that I've hit my 40s, I'm concerned about dryness, firmness, and dark spots. I was lucky enough to win the much-talked-about Anua PDRN Hyaluronic Acid 100 Serum and have been using it for about two weeks. Here's my review: With the change of seasons, my skin was looking rough and dull, but after using the Anua serum, I feel like my oil and moisture balance has improved. It seems to have more of a rich texture than I expected, focusing on deep hydration. I thought it might feel sticky, but it absorbs well, leaving my skin smooth with a beautiful glow. PDRN, derived from salmon DNA, is said to help restore skin condition quickly and maintain a healthy radiance. Combined with hyaluronic acid and collagen, it's supposed to be great for deep hydration and elasticity. Hmm... Since I have severe deep dryness, I think I need to layer this with more hydrating products. While it's slightly disappointing in that aspect, I'm grateful for the chance to try this famous Anua serum.

  Cons

  It seems to focus more on rich moisturization than hydration. I wish it had a bit more hydrating power...

  Pros

  With just one pump, the dropper holds plenty of product. The formula flows like water, feeling lightweight when applied. Even a single layer gives a beautiful sheen, making your skin look gorgeous!

  Cons

  After using it once, I noticed some small blemishes popping up. So I'm currently testing it out by using it intermittently. Also, while the texture is light, it feels slightly lacking in hydration and has a stronger oily feel, which was a bit disappointing for my oily skin. I think it might work better when the weather gets even warmer.

  Pros

  My skin type: Dry! Texture: Great hydration and skin-firming sensation! A serum that's both moisturizing and plumping! ✅ The PDRN + hyaluronic acid combo is top-notch! Thanks to the skin-regenerating PDRN, my skin condition has been steadily improving! ✅ Super hydrating gel formula! The capsules dissolve gently and absorb well into the skin! Absolutely no irritation and very gentle~ ✅ Leaves skin firm and bouncy! After application, it feels like my skin is plumping up from within. Especially great before morning makeup - it smooths out skin texture, making makeup apply beautifully! ✅ Safe even on sensitive days! A gentle serum perfect for daily use without worrying about blemishes! 💙 Overall: A serum that tackles both regeneration and hydration! With consistent use, it refines skin texture and firms up the skin, resulting in high satisfaction! Will repurchase: Definitely! (It's become a staple in my routine for building skin's fundamental strength!)

  Cons

  Minimal oil content! May not be enough on its own for extremely dry skin.

  Tip

  Store in the refrigerator for enhanced cooling and soothing effects! On sensitive or flushed days, applying it cool helps calm the skin

  Pros

  First off, I have sensitive combination dehydrated skin. My skin is particularly prone to blemishes if there's even a hint of pore-clogging ingredients. I started using this product during the changing seasons when my skin was acting up a bit, and I'm happy to report that it didn't cause any additional blemishes. It felt quite gentle on my skin. The texture is water-like, with no stickiness at all. Instead of applying it directly to your face, I'd recommend putting it in your hands first and then patting it on, just like you would with a toner. It does have a slightly rich feel, so those with oily skin might not be fans. As for the scent, it's close to fragrance-free, but not completely. While I usually prefer unscented products, the subtle fragrance didn't bother me. Given how sensitive my skin has been lately, I'm quite satisfied that this product didn't trigger any blemishes.

  Cons

  I felt it lacked in hydration and didn't really address deep dryness. I found myself needing to layer it with another hydrating ampoule for better results. For me, it felt more rich than hydrating, so I'd say it's better suited for transitional seasons or winter rather than summer.

  Pros

  I noticed that this hyaluronic acid serum absorbs better than the ampoule I was using before. It's thinner than other products and absorbs well, so there's no sticky feeling. After using it, my skin felt hydrated and looked pretty good.

  Cons

  Its consistency is both a pro and a con - it's so thin that it can run down your face easily. It only provides hydration, so I had to use a separate product for oil. However, those with oily skin might really like this.

  Pros

  The watery texture applies smoothly and effortlessly. As soon as you apply it, you get a glossy glow (though it's more of a slick, thin oil-like sheen rather than a hydrated glow). As someone with combination dehydrated skin, I didn't feel like it deeply hydrated the extremely dry areas around my eyes, cheeks, and chin. On my oily forehead and T-zone, it felt a bit too rich. However, for those without such extreme dry/oily skin, this might work well. If you fall into that category, it could be great for achieving that coveted glow.

  Cons

  - Personally, I really disliked the scent... I can't describe it exactly, but it has an unpleasant smell. - While it immediately gives a glossy sheen, it doesn't feel like it's actually hydrating the skin. Instead of feeling moisturized, it's more like a very thin oily film covering everything. As someone with combination dehydrated skin, it felt too rich on my forehead and nose, though it might be okay on the cheeks. - It seems to add surface oil without providing deep hydration, making it awkward for both dry and oily skin types. - Despite being called a PDRN Hyaluronic Acid Serum, I couldn't really notice any PDRN effects (like brightening or firming).

  Pros

  Skin type: I suspect I have a combination of dry and combination dehydrated skin... Especially the lower part of my face is extremely dry. Appearance: The packaging seems well-crafted and sturdy. The glass bottle has a nice weight to it, and the dropper feels comfortable to use without any awkwardness. Texture: The consistency is so fluid it could almost be mistaken for water. To be more specific, it's about 95% watery and 5% slightly viscous! It has a finish that feels like an oil layer to prevent moisture loss, but this richness isn't heavy, allowing for multiple layers to be applied. Recommended skin types: I recommend this for combination dehydrated skin and combination skin types. I think it could also work well for those with oily skin if absorbed properly.

  Cons

  It doesn't seem to provide deep hydration effectively. The slight richness I mentioned earlier feels like it's forcibly trying to fill in the moisture? That's why I don't reach for it often during my heavier nighttime skincare routine, but I find it works well for my morning makeup routine.

  Tip

  Whether you use it in the morning or evening, I think it's best to layer this product at least twice when applying.

  Pros

  I've been using this product for two weeks since receiving it! The biggest advantage is how it instantly makes your skin feel soft and smooth upon application. The formula is as light as water and flows easily, absorbing quickly without any heaviness. Due to its lightweight nature, you can apply multiple layers without feeling suffocated or sticky. After application, you can definitely feel your skin surface becoming smoother and more refined! Another plus is that it maintains hydration without pilling when applied before makeup.

  Cons

  However, the hydration level is not as high as expected. Thanks to the hyaluronic acid, it feels moisturizing when first applied, but as time passes, you might feel some dryness as the moisture evaporates. Especially for those with dry skin, this serum alone might not provide enough hydration.

  Tip

  If you feel the hydration from this product alone is slightly lacking, try mixing it with a moisturizer for much better hydration retention! First, apply a layer of the serum, then mix a drop or two into your usual moisturizer and apply another layer. This will significantly improve the moisturizing power of your cream. Using this method helps lock in deep hydration, keeping your skin feeling much more moisturized.

  Pros

  The lightweight, runny texture is great - usually I need to apply twice for proper hydration, but with this product, one application is enough to balance oil and moisture nicely. It adheres well to the skin without evaporating. I find it effective at filling in surface dryness. It gives a subtle glow, like the shimmering sheen of salmon, creating an 'Inner Glow' effect.

  Cons

  I expected it to be a hydrating essence, but it doesn't have that intense burst of hydration. Instead, it feels richer than I anticipated. For combination dehydrated skin, I'd say it's about 75% hydration, 25% oil. If you have oily skin, you might find the richness a bit heavy.

  Tip

  Overall, I'm satisfied with the product and will likely continue using it. However, its purpose seems a bit ambiguous. It's too moisturizing to be just a hydrating essence, yet the texture isn't heavy, making it comfortable to use. But I'm not quite sure what it excels at. It's oddly nice, but I can't pinpoint why... Considering this vague characteristic and the price, I'm on the fence about repurchasing.

  Pros

  As someone with oily skin but severe deep dryness, especially around my chin and mouth where it can feel irritating, here's my experience with Anua. Even when I used it alone with just two creams, I didn't feel dry all day. It absorbs quickly, and while it sinks in, there's a slightly rich feeling that comes to the surface. Personally, I'm as satisfied with Anua as I would be with an ampoule, even though it's a serum.

  Cons

  Because of its rich texture, I personally found it a bit heavy for layering with multiple products. So when going to work, I only applied Anua and a cream, avoiding building up layers. I was concerned that my already oily skin might become excessively greasy by lunchtime if I did more.
