The brightening effect is truly remarkable. My yellowish undertone has disappeared, my complexion looks clearer, and my blemishes have faded away.
ConsYou really have to work hard to get it to absorb, and the amount seems quite small for the price. It stings badly if it gets in your eyes, and it feels rich on the skin. The scent is also unpleasant... Despite all this, I'm serious about brightening, so I'll probably keep using it, but the price is ridiculous.
TipThis review highlights both positive and negative aspects of the product. The user praises its effectiveness in improving skin tone and reducing blemishes, but criticizes its absorption, quantity, potential eye irritation, and scent. They also mention concerns about the price-to-quantity ratio.

I love how it brightens my complexion.
ConsBlemishes appeared after just one day. My skin completely flared up... It feels very oily when applied. It really doesn't suit combination dehydrated skin at all, as it caused a severe reaction. You absolutely need to sleep with a towel on your pillow. Cleansing in the morning is a must.

It wasn't particularly impressive. I'd recommend this to those with dry skin.
ConsWhen I first applied it, I had a feeling it might cause blemishes, but with consistent use, it doesn't seem to be the culprit. Rather than providing hydration, it felt more oily, which was disappointing. I also didn't notice any brightening effect on my complexion.
TipI won't be repurchasing this product.

I happened to try a sample and thought, 'Hey, this isn't bad!' So I decided to purchase the full-size version. When I wake up in the morning after applying it, my skin looks a bit brighter. It has a gel texture that feels cool on the skin. I actually keep it in the refrigerator and use it chilled for an even more refreshing experience.
ConsFirst off, the texture... Right after application, it feels somewhat greasy and slippery, like it's just sitting on top of the skin. The amount you get for the price is really, really small. If you use it generously, it probably won't even last two weeks. I'm not sure if they included the spatula because you're supposed to apply it like a mask, but the reality is that it doesn't absorb well, so you end up having to pat it in with your hands. The product isn't bad per se, but I don't think I'll be repurchasing it.

It definitely provides hydration and makes my skin feel plump and bouncy!
ConsMy nose and T-zone are quite oily, and the next day there's a bit of excess oil!

I didn't experience any new blemishes while using it.
ConsTexture & Finish: I expected a moisturizing serum with quick absorption due to its soothing gel formula, but I was disappointed. While it feels like a soothing gel when dispensing, it's more like a rich moisturizing cream on the face. It's heavier than expected, with a slippery feeling that's more oily than hydrating. Even after patting it in, it sits on the skin for a long time and takes ages to absorb. Post-absorption, there's no stickiness, but I don't feel that 'plumped up, hydrated' sensation - just slightly tacky skin. There's a glow, but it's similar to the subtle sheen you'd get from a basic emulsion (like a bare face with a slight glow - see the second photo taken right after application). Moisturizing & Absorption: It claims to be a 'substitute for moisturizer' and good for 'night care', but it's not. It doesn't even work as a mask. I didn't feel any hydration during application, and even after applying a thick layer and waiting, there was no moisturizing effect. Trying to improve absorption by applying multiple very thin layers only led to dryness and tightness.

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.ProsI've tried many brightening and blemish-targeting products before, but honestly, I hadn't seen much of an effect. However, this product is said to be so effective it's called a 'cool-tone serum', so I'm really excited about it! I haven't used it for long, so I haven't noticed any major effects on brightening or blemishes yet. If I'm satisfied after using it more, I'll definitely repurchase! Despite only using it a few times, there are quite a few things I like! First, the scent isn't unpleasant, making it great for relaxing at night. The texture looks a bit like a soothing gel, which made me worry it might be drying, but it's incredibly hydrating! I have dry skin, so I applied it generously like a sleeping pack, worried it might not be moisturizing enough. The next day, my skin texture was amazing! Even though I only slept for 4 hours, when I washed my face and applied my skincare in the morning, my skin felt as smooth and glowy as if I'd had 12 hours of beauty sleep. It's clear why this product is so popular! Honestly, it takes months to see effects on brightening or blemishes, but I'm already very satisfied with these results and happy to keep using it!
ConsThis might feel a bit heavy for those with oily skin! It's not just hydrating, but also quite rich in oils. However, for those with dry skin like me, it's great that it's substantial despite being a brightening product! It's a bit disappointing that it doesn't come with a spatula... Using it with your hands doesn't seem very hygienic, so I'm using a spatula from another product.

My skin reacts immediately to incompatible products / Oily skin ✔️Skin condition before using the product: Not many pimples, but overall severe redness ☑️Product advantages: 1. Resolves deep dryness & Cooling effect I've been experiencing deep dryness due to the office heater lately, and that's when I discovered the Arensynthe serum. First off, I loved its light, watery gel texture with a noticeable hydrating feel! It absorbs well, leaving no sticky residue after application, which was very satisfying! It also provides an instant cooling effect when applied after washing with warm water, when my face feels hot and flushed 👍🏻 2. Gentle enough for sensitive skin without causing blemishes While blemish reactions can vary from person to person, as someone with super sensitive skin that reacts badly to even slightly incompatible products, I can confidently say this is gentle enough since it didn't cause any new pimples or skin irritation. (I've left honest reviews for other products that didn't suit my skin)
Cons1. It's a bit richer than expected, so it might be difficult for oily skin types to use when the weather gets warmer. 2. The price is... unless there are significant discounts, I might look for alternatives...!!
TipI'd recommend this more for combination dehydrated skin or dry skin types rather than very oily skin!!

The color was absolutely gorgeous - not quite blue, not too dark, but a unique shade that's hard to find elsewhere. It's truly eye-catching. As for the scent, I honestly couldn't detect much, which I prefer. I'm all for fragrance-free over strong scents, so this was a big plus for me!
ConsMy biggest pet peeve is when a product leaves my skin feeling oily on the surface but dry underneath, and unfortunately, this serum did exactly that. I'm already extra sensitive about oily skin since I recently got bangs after 10 years, so this was particularly noticeable. I ended up only using it at night for 2-3 days. There's no way I could use this before work in the morning. The serum left my skin so greasy that I couldn't even apply moisturizer afterwards, but paradoxically, after a short while, my skin felt like it desperately needed cream. It just didn't work for my sensitive facial skin. After three days, I started using it on my body instead, which worked much better. However, I wouldn't repurchase such an expensive product just for body use. Overall, it was a disappointment for me, sadly.
TipIf it doesn't suit your face, try using it on your body!

I received the product on February 28th and have been using it for about a week. Here are the positives: I liked that the scent wasn't overpowering. It has a very subtle herbal or mugwort fragrance. The color is ocean-like, which makes it look super hydrating. I initially thought it might have an aloe gel texture, so I tested it on the back of my hand first. Surprisingly, it had a richer consistency than expected. In summer, it's so moisturizing that you might not even need to apply cream afterwards. I've been applying it to my elbows and knees too - it's ultra-hydrating! After using it for about 6 days, I noticed that the dark spots on my cheekbones have significantly faded. I'm prone to redness on my cheeks, but that has also subsided considerably.
ConsIt was more rich than I expected, which made it a bit heavy for my morning skincare routine. It doesn't absorb very quickly, so I've been using only a small amount in the evenings. On the first day, when I applied this product and then layered a rich cream on top, my skin reacted badly. However, after cleansing with water, adjusting the amount, and switching to a different cream, it didn't cause any further issues. It's crucial to control the amount you use. It feels too heavy for morning use. The jar packaging also makes me a bit uncomfortable about hygiene.
TipIn the mornings, I've been mixing it half-and-half with a lighter serum, which makes it feel less heavy. I've also been applying it to my upper arms and elbows, which are prone to dead skin cells, and it leaves them feeling really moisturized, almost as if I've applied a cream. I think I'll need to use it a bit longer to fully assess its brightening effects.
