Pros

When I apply it before bed, it seems to reduce redness by the next morning. It's especially effective when used with a device, absorbing well - that's great. The generous amount allows for liberal application without worry.

Cons

If I had to point out a downside, it would be the slightly sticky texture. The finish isn't exactly what I'd call fresh or light.

Review under verification

Reviewed by The Hwahae Testers

Pros

I have combination dehydrated skin that's sensitive and dry. After getting Rejuran treatments, my deep dryness has improved. The portability is a given, and the pink packaging is adorable. It absorbs well into the skin. The large volume means you could use one every day as part of your daily mask routine.

Cons

I was using a PDRN ampoule from another brand and needed a travel-sized option, so I bought this. However, after just one use, I found it irritating. I was nearing the end of my current ampoule and wanted to try this before purchasing a full-size. Maybe it's because my skin is in a sensitive phase, but it felt quite harsh. While it didn't cause any blemishes, the area around my eyes was irritated. Those with super sensitive skin should definitely do a patch test first. There might also be concerns about microplastics and waste issues with this product.

Combination SkinSensitive SkinRedness

Review under verification

Reviewed by The Hwahae Testers

Pros

The hydration is excellent for my combination dehydrated skin. It has a slight richness, so it might not suit oily skin types. I was pleasantly surprised by the generous amount - enough to apply liberally on the neck too! The ingredients are so good that even with my super sensitive skin, I felt safe using it. The scent is nearly fragrance-free. I love that they come in individual packets, making them convenient for travel or on-the-go use.

Cons

The only downside is that it leaves a slightly sticky feeling after application.

Tip

Due to its rich texture, I'd recommend this more for winter use rather than summer.

Pros

The color is beautiful... My skin type is non-sensitive dry skin

Cons

Right after applying, I felt an intense heat sensation. Suddenly, the area under my eyes and along my lip line became red and swollen. My whole face felt like it was burned, with a stinging and burning sensation. I immediately washed it off and used a soothing mask, but it wouldn't calm down. I wonder if PDRN doesn't agree with me... This is the first time I've experienced this with a product

Pros

Positive aspects: • Skin soothing effect: Noticeably calms the skin after application. Visibly reduces redness, especially beneficial for sensitive or flushed skin. • Quick absorption: The lightweight, fluid texture absorbs rapidly. Non-sticky and non-greasy, making it suitable for oily and combination skin types. • Firmness + Hydration: Possibly due to the PDRN ingredient, it gives a slight tightening sensation. Provides adequate moisture, making it suitable for dry skin as well. • Non-irritating: Gentle formula allows use even on blemish-prone or sensitive skin days.

Cons

Areas for improvement: • Limited immediate effects: Improvements in skin texture and firmness are more noticeable with consistent use rather than dramatic instant results. Despite being called a 'one-day' serum, don't expect miraculous changes overnight. • Not intensely hydrating: May not be sufficient on its own for very dry skin. A cream should be added to maintain hydration. • Somewhat pricey: Considering value for money, there are many alternative products available. Best suited for those who prioritize skin-friendly ingredients and formulations.

Tip

My personal tips for using MediCube PDRN One Day Serum: 1. Use as a 'firming base' before makeup • Applying before makeup smooths skin texture, allowing for better foundation application. • Important: Wait 1-2 minutes after applying the serum before adding cushion or foundation to prevent pilling. 2. Boost effectiveness by pairing with a sheet mask • Layering a hydrating sheet mask over the serum enhances absorption. • Great as an 'emergency soothing pack' for sensitive or dry skin days. 3. 'Intensive care' for bad skin days • Effective for soothing skin after popping a pimple, sunburn, or on sensitive skin days. Follow a routine of toner → PDRN serum → cream for best results. 4. Double-layer on areas needing extra firmness • Apply an extra layer on areas prone to losing elasticity like under-eyes, nasolabial folds, and neck for an enhanced firming effect. 5. Refrigerate for added cooling benefits • Storing in the fridge amplifies its de-puffing and soothing effects. Especially refreshing for morning use to reduce facial swelling.

Pros

I haven't used it for long, but I can definitely feel my skin becoming more hydrated and plump after application. As someone with folliculitis and blemish-prone skin, I'm pleased that it hasn't caused any new breakouts or irritation! Just the fact that it doesn't aggravate my skin is quite satisfying.

Cons

It's quite sticky... The stickiness attracts dust, which makes my skin itchy. The amount is a bit awkward too - it's too much to use up in one go, but not quite enough to comfortably share with family members.

Pros

I bought this to use with my skincare device. It does make my skin feel hydrated.

Cons

I had to stop using it because it caused closed comedones and acne. My skin is combination dehydrated with occasional blemishes, but after using this product, I got a lot of breakouts around my chin area.
