Although I've only been using it for a few days, I feel like my pores have shrunk a bit. Whenever I look in the mirror, it was stressful, but it seems to have decreased a little. And the color is so beautiful, it's shiny... The whitening effect isn't dramatically noticeable, but my skin tone seems to have become a little lighter! And my skin has become smoother and better... It's glowing! It was nice and moisturized. I have sensitive skin and can't use just anything, but this one seems to have matched well without any irritation!
ConsThe price is too expensive :( It would be great if you could lower the price a bit...๐ฅฒ I bought the brush set bundle from Olive Young, but for those who buy the products individually, it seems inconvenient that the built-in brushes are not included...! It seems difficult to expect dramatic whitening effects.

If you're looking for an effective whitening functional "gel cream" with a good ingredient combination, I recommend it. The most important effects: There are. I used it for 3 months and I could clearly see that my skin tone became brighter and more transparent when I sat at the vanity after washing my face. The dullness around my eyes, mouth, and face contours has improved. It lasts longer than expected. I used up one bottle in about 1 month and 2 weeks, and now I'm using the second one. Typically, whitening creams have an issue with maintaining moisture, so it's difficult to see the same effects as ampoules (usually used in combination with ampoules), but this one seems to have preserved the functionality of the ampoule and the moisturizing power of the cream. Texture: It's a transparent moisturizing cream with a glycerin base that those who have used it will be familiar with. When you apply it, at first it's just like a glycerin cream, but after a few seconds, you can feel the moisture. It's more like a gel cream than a serum. +The color is so iridescent that it just feels good to apply. Ahh, so refreshing..๐
ConsHowever, it does not produce a flawless, bright complexion in just 2 weeks as advertised. Whitening products need to be used for at least 3 months to see visible effects. The advertisements are somewhat exaggerated. For oily skin, it may feel heavy and the absorption is not very fast. The effects do not seem to improve rapidly due to the absorption rate. As for whether it's worth the money, I'm not sure. The product is not exactly cheap as it is formulated with carefully selected ingredients, typically priced in the late 20,000 won range, occasionally discounted to around 26,000 won. I purchased it in a bundle with a 50% discount and I'm on my second bottle, but I probably won't repurchase it unless absolutely necessary.
TipThe part with slow absorption was great to use with beauty devices, as the product did not dry out. I found it most effective to apply this product thickly right after cleansing, and then apply other products 2-3 minutes later. When I applied it after using other toners or serums, the absorption was too slow. This product is also great to use as a thick, double-layered application when you're feeling overwhelmed after drinking alcohol and need to apply other products. With its moisturizing and functional properties, applying it thickly can keep your skin hydrated until the next morning.

If I had to be specific, it's a more premium version compared to using aloe vera and the like. Many people may use it as a serum, but since I have dry skin, I feel it's not quite enough. So I'm using it as a special pack. On important days or when my skin needs a break, I wash my face, apply it generously, soak a gauze in the essence and place it on, then take a rest. When you take it off, you can feel your skin tone is much brighter and your pores are refined.
ConsI didn't have any regrets. It's also true that being a single-family unit is not disappointing. However, I think those who will mainly use it for skincare may find it a bit disappointing.

I had used the Arencia foam before, and it wasn't bad, so I had higher expectations. After using it for about 5 days, the skin tone does seem brighter, but I don't think I'll see dramatic effects even if I use it for a week. It's an ambiguous timeframe to leave a review. I think it's better to use it for at least a month and then leave a review. It's not easy to see a change in tone in the short term. However, the formula is refreshing like a gel, so it doesn't feel too drying. Since my skin is sensitive to sebum-moisture imbalance and prone to acne, I'm glad this serum didn't cause any breakouts. I think I can comfortably finish the whole bottle. I tried using it as a sleeping pack once, and my skin was still moisturized in the morning. It's a bit inconvenient that it's in a jar, but since I scoop it out with my hands anyway, it doesn't bother me much. The Olive Young reviews are very positive, so I'll continue using it. So far, it's neither extremely good nor bad for me - it's non-irritating and moisturizing, so it seems good for daily use as a sleeping pack.
ConsIf the price is a burden, you can purchase it in the mid-20,000 won range when it's on sale at Olive Young. And since it doesn't absorb well, it's sticky and gets on the pillow, so sensitive people should make sure to absorb it completely and sleep. For dry skin types, apply it up to the cream stage. This alone will make your skin dry.
TipI recommend applying it only in the evening after storing it in the refrigerator. As absorption is slow, it may stain the pillow, so please ensure it is well absorbed. For those who don't mind, I recommend applying it generously like a sleeping pack and going to bed.

I've been using the Hwahae serum for about a week now! They say that if you use it consistently, it can be effective in reducing freckles and dark spots. That's why I feel like my skin tone has gotten a bit brighter!! The texture is a bit sticky, like aloe vera gel, so it did leave some residue when I applied makeup during the day. I ended up using it more at night, applying a generous amount. Even though I usually have dry skin, it absorbed well without leaving me too dry. But I went through it pretty quickly...;;; My skin is sensitive and tends to get red, but this seemed to have a calming effect! I was able to use it without any particular issues. If you've been satisfied with the rice cake soap, the serum might work well for you too..?
ConsAlthough I dislike the feeling of excess oiliness, since I use a gel-type product, I tend to apply too much and it doesn't get fully absorbed, leaving my hair feeling sticky. However, during the leisurely evening hours, I have more time to allow it to be properly absorbed, so it seems to be better absorbed than during the day. Using a spatula would likely be helpful when applying the product.
TipAn aloe vera gel pack-like application would be refreshing for your stimulated face. Next time you purchase it, you could also use it as a cool pack.

This was the first time I tried a full-sized serum, and I liked that it spread easily and was easy to apply, but it was a bit messy and didn't come with an internal spatula, which was a bit inconvenient. I'm currently using a spatula from another cream. Though I haven't used it for long, my skin seems to have a brighter, more refined tone, rather than a dramatic lightening effect. I recommend this product because of this positive result.
ConsI'm concerned about the dust in the serum you mentioned, and it's a shame that there is no spatula included.

Recently, my skin had become quite red, but it wasn't irritating and was gentle. I apply it thickly like a pack before bed, and when I wake up the next day, my skin tone is much clearer and soothed. I think I'll repurchase this once I finish it. >.<
ConsIt seems the absorption is a bit slower, so you'll need to allow enough time to apply it before makeup in the morning. Personally, I find it works well as a soothing skin treatment, but the amount seems a bit less than expected. ใ .ใ
TipFor sure, if you want your skin texture to become taut, apply the Hwahae Serum and also put on a face mask. ^.^

The application is smooth and spreads easily, absorbing well into the skin without any residue. It is unscented, providing a comfortable experience. After using it for a week or more, the complexion gradually became brighter, and skin troubles were soothed. Now, it feels uneasy not to apply it, as the face is becoming increasingly radiant. Immediately after application, it provides ample moisture, and over time, an appropriate oil-moisture balance is achieved, without excessive oiliness.
Cons1. The need to scoop and apply (currently using a spatula from home!) 2. The price range is quite high, making it burdensome to apply generously
Tip-Tone the skin with toner and-in the serum step, apply only this and ensure it is well absorbed-then finish with lotion/cream! -If it is very oily, it is recommended to use a small amount!

When I use whitening products, my skin becomes sensitive and sometimes even turns over, but this product did not have that effect! I started using it during the recovery stage after my skin had completely turned over, and I was worried that it might turn over again since my skin is sensitive, but the next day I saw that my skin had calmed down a lot. ๐ I felt that there was absolutely no skin irritation. During the one-week usage period, there was no noticeable improvement in skin tone, but I felt that my skin condition was well-maintained. As shown in the third photo, I am not the type with a lot of sebum, but there is a sense of sebum right after application, and then it becomes incredibly refreshing afterwards! Three-line summary! 1. There is absolutely no skin irritation! 2. After a week of use, I'm not sure about the whitening effect! 3. I recommend applying it thickly as a night care!
ConsThe formulation has much higher viscosity than other serums, so I didn't get the feeling that it was absorbed quickly. However, after it's absorbed, there's no greasy or tacky feeling left. The inconvenient packaging is unavoidable, I suppose.

It's the moss green color that I love! The color of the product itself is also beautiful. It has a deep ocean color feel. The texture is like aloe vera gel, and it leaves the skin feeling moisturized. I was only thinking about the whitening function, but it also provides hydration to the skin, so I'm using it with satisfaction. The whitening function is also good, and it gives an overall brightening effect to the skin tone. I also feel like my skin is becoming a bit lighter, and if I use it consistently, it will be much more helpful for my freckles. It's great to use in the winter to keep the skin moisturized, and it will become an essential part of my skincare routine in the summer as well. It seems like I've found a product that satisfies me in many ways after a long time.
ConsAbsorption takes quite a while, but it remains moisturized on the skin for that long. Since it is a gel type, if you apply a lot at once, it takes a long time to absorb, so you should apply it in small amounts.
TipIt's best to apply it lightly just a little before makeup, as it has a slightly greasy feel after use. In the evening, after using the Hwahae, applying it generously will make your skin definitely moisturized and radiant in the morning.
