ConsThose without super sensitive skin might tolerate the tingling, but sensitive types may experience redness
TipApplied a soothing cream after the serum to calm any redness Used only in the evening routine rather than both morning and night

The dropper format seemed quite hygienic too. ‼️Scent‼️ Firstly, it's fragrance-free, which is great for those with sensitive skin who want to avoid any potential irritation. ‼️User Experience‼️ When applied, it felt a bit tingly - perhaps due to my large pores. It wasn't unbearable though, and I convinced myself it was working to tighten my pores. The sensation quickly subsided, so it wasn't a major issue. My oily-skinned friend mentioned a slight tingling upon application, but was pleased that it controlled oil production better than other products. ‼️Texture‼️ The texture is just right - it doesn't run down your face immediately when applied, but if left alone, it slowly glides down.
ConsIf I had to pick a downside, it would be the slight tingling sensation upon application. If you have any open blemishes, I'd recommend applying a patch first before using this product.

There's hardly any scent, which made it pleasant to apply. When I use this product at night and wake up in the morning, my skin feels incredibly hydrated! After cleansing, my skin feels smooth and moisturized without any dry, rough patches. As someone with dry skin, I was very satisfied!
ConsThe spicules make it extremely tingly... This was my first time using a micro-needle ampoule, and it was really irritating for my sensitive, extremely dry skin. The tingling sensation intensified as I rubbed it in, following the direction of application. The more I rubbed, the more I felt the tingling! Although I could feel the discomfort, my skin didn't look irritated at all! It didn't turn red and seemed fine. Even after applying emulsion on top, the tingling remained the same. I thought patting it might help, but it still tingled just as much. I was worried about the next day, but if you can endure this sensation, your skin becomes incredibly moisturized and soft! As I have sensitive skin, I used this product every 2-3 days, and it worked well! If it were less irritating, I'd definitely repurchase it.
TipIf you apply the ampoule and emulsion after cleansing before bed, you'll wake up with really hydrated skin. Even though I have sensitive skin, I only felt the tingling sensation - my skin looked completely fine! I highly recommend this for those with dry skin and uneven skin texture!

I even feel like my pores have slightly shrunk! The scent is nearly undetectable, so those with sensitive noses can use it without worry.
ConsI was surprised by a slight tingling sensation when I first used it, but after about a day of use, you get used to it and it should be fine.

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.ProsHere's my review after using it for about a week: ✅ Gentle exfoliation I had a bad experience with a famous R*x shot product that caused itchy hives and redness, so I was wary of spicule serums. However, the Phycore product didn't cause any itching or blemishes, which was great. ✅ Pore tightening The most important point - pore tightening! Of course, expecting dramatic results from skincare in just a day or two is unrealistic. However, compared to not using it, I gradually felt the vertically sagging pores becoming more elastic. ✅ Improved skin texture As the pores became tighter, I naturally felt my skin texture becoming firmer and more refined.
ConsIf you have very sensitive skin, I strongly recommend doing a patch test. A slight tingling sensation is normal, but if it feels too intense, try using it every other day. When using this product, I don't use any ingredients that exfoliate or do separate exfoliation (as it can be irritating).
TipI usually apply it before bed, followed by a generous layer of soothing, hydrating cream!

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.ProsThe Hwahae Testers review: • Scent: It has a mild, refreshing fragrance. • Texture: It's an ampoule formula that's not too runny! It doesn't flow easily. • Application: Despite its texture, it spreads easily with a hydrating feel. • Packaging: The thin dropper helps dispense the right amount, which is ideal as you only need to use a small quantity. • Ingredients: High glycerin content provides excellent moisturizing properties. It contains significant amounts of niacinamide, retinal, panthenol, and allantoin, which are effective for pore care, strengthening the skin barrier, and hydration.
Cons• Sensation: While I didn't experience irritation with single-ingredient niacinamide products, this one caused a stinging sensation and irritation when applied. • Post-use experience: Right after the first application, my skin felt very tingly and broke out. Even when tested on the back of my hand, it caused a stinging sensation. Those with super sensitive skin should use this product with caution.
TipAlthough the ingredients may potentially cause irritation, it might be beneficial to start by mixing small amounts with your basic skincare products. As your skin adapts, you can gradually increase the quantity. These are ingredients that require consistent, long-term use rather than short-term application to see results.

I'm not a fan of sticky products and hate when emulsions or creams get on my hair while sleeping, so I don't often use masks or moisturizers. When I experience deep dryness, I reluctantly use a skin booster device to help absorption before bed. However, this serum, despite its concentrated formula, absorbs quickly and doesn't transfer to my hair, which I love. That said, my skin does feel dry after a while, so I need to apply a thin layer of cream on top to minimize deep dryness. A tip for those with very dry skin! The fragrance is subtle and non-irritating, which I appreciate.
ConsRecently, I've been concerned about my dull complexion and more noticeable pores. I tried this product with mixed expectations, hoping for some improvement. To be honest, after using it consistently for about 5 days before bed, following cleansing and an exfoliating toner, the effects are still minimal. I plan to continue using it to see if there's any improvement. However, I experienced a slight tingling sensation, possibly due to my sensitive skin. Since it didn't cause redness, itching, or breakouts, I didn't stop using it. The product's consistency makes it difficult to dispense enough from the dropper, which I found frustrating and inconvenient to use.

It absorbed quickly without any stickiness and did a great job of addressing deep dryness! The emulsion-like feel was so hydrating that if you apply it generously, you might even be able to skip your moisturizer!!!
ConsAs I have somewhat sensitive skin, I experienced some tingling and a few blemishes appeared during the first few days. This often happens when I switch products, so I persevered. While the blemishes stopped appearing, I still felt a slight tingling sensation on days when my skin was more sensitive. Also, the cream-like texture makes it difficult to dispense with the dropper. It's great otherwise, but the texture seems to be the issue.
TipFor those with sensitive skin, following up with a soothing cream line after using this really helps calm any tingling or blemishes quickly!

ConsIt stung quite a bit when applying. I thought 'no pain, no gain' and kept using it diligently. Disappointed with the packaging though. Even with the dropper, it's difficult to get the product out.
