It's actually good that I can use it while adjusting the amount until the end. The texture is like a soothing gel, and I liked that it doesn't flow. There's a refreshing feeling when applying it, and it spreads smoothly without stickiness, finishing with a glossy, moisturized look. Even though it's a serum, it has a feel in between a moisturizer and a serum. After application, there's a sense of a thin layer being formed.
ConsCream should definitely be applied. It doesn't have much oiliness, so those with dry skin may feel it dries quickly.
TipAfter cleansing my face, I applied a serum and used a cream-type sheet mask. The next day, my skin felt more supple.

First, my skin type is: โ๏ธ Combination-oily and sensitive skin โ๏ธ Abundant T-zone sebum secretion โ๏ธ Dehydrated I had already seen the Arancia Hyssop Serum a lot on social media even before the Hwahae Trial Reviewers, and I think many of us, including myself, were curious about the phrase 'cool-toned serum'! Normally, the advertising phrase 'cool-toned = pink-toned skin' is often used, so does it mean it brightens the skin with a pinkish tone? Is it a false advertisement? ๐ But as I looked at the detailed page, the part that appealed to me the most was the 'reduction of dark skin tone'! This is actually the part where I saw the most effect. โช๏ธTexture: The serum has a thicker, more viscous texture than I expected. When I first opened it, the transparent watery appearance made me feel like I was looking at the sea, and it was so beautiful... ๐๐ It's a visual that makes you want to spread it all over. โช๏ธSpreadability: Despite the refreshing visual, it has a slightly oily feel. As the weather got a little warmer, it felt a bit too oily for my dehydrated skin. But on the upside, a small amount spreads smoothly and comfortably. The best part was that I really felt my dull complexion improving! I have a lot of sebum secretion, so I have some blemishes, but I don't have freckles or age spots, so it was hard to check those areas. However, as I mentioned earlier, my face would gradually turn muddy-colored the day after my skincare routine, which was a concern of mine... ๐ฅฒ Using this product consistently, I felt my skin gradually becoming clearer and brighter โ whiter ๐โโ๏ธ. It's only been 2 weeks, so it's not like my skin became as clear as a crystal ball, but haha the subtle glow after cleansing has been maintained. I've tried vitamin serums and retinol before, and this is one of the few products where I've actually felt the effects. I can see the same clear, well-rested look in the morning. I was really satisfied with just this!
ConsAs mentioned in the section on spreadability, this product felt quite oily! I don't think this formula would be suitable for my combination or oily skin type. While it didn't cause any breakouts due to the oiliness or stickiness, I would recommend using a lighter cream or lotion for the final step of your routine.
TipIt's probably best to avoid using products with vitamins in the toner or finishing steps since the product already contains vitamins. I got a bit overeager and applied them twice, and I think that's why my skin felt a little irritated. ๐ฅน

However, unlike the quickly-absorbing aloe vera gel, when applied to the skin, it remains thick on the skin. It feels like it could be used as a massage gel as well. ๐ตBrightening My skin is quite fair, but the area around my mouth and neck is yellowish. While I don't use it every day, I use brightening products when I feel my skin is too yellow or dull. After using it consistently for a few days, the brightening effect was noticeable! The yellowish area around my mouth became similar to the color of my cheeks, evening out my skin tone.๐ As a cool-toned serum, the brightening effect was excellent!!๐
ConsThe product had a whitening effect, but as a dry-skinned person, the seasonal mismatch meant that it lacked sufficient moisture and oil. I intend to try using it again in the summer.

Even though my sensitive skin feels irritation when using pure vitamin serums, I did not experience any irritation from using this product morning and night. There were no breakouts, and it suited me well. The skin whitening effect is still unclear, as I have only used it for about 2 weeks. I think I need to use it for longer to see the results. The fragrance-free aspect is great, and while the jar packaging is a bit inconvenient, the striking turquoise color that catches my eye every time I use it gives me a slight mood boost. The formula has a transparent, soothing gel-cream texture that is very moisturizing and does not dry out quickly, making it easy to spread and apply.
ConsYour combination skin is oily and dry, and when you only used this product in the serum step and finished with a cream, you felt dryness over time. I feel that this product has more of a moisture feel than a moisturizing one, and as the dry and cold winter weather and indoor heaters caused the moisture to evaporate, you felt dryness. In the winter, you should definitely provide good moisturization in the final step with a rich cream. For the same reason, I wouldn't recommend using this as a sleeping pack these days. However, I think this will work much better in the summer. In the summer, skipping the cream and just finishing with this would be perfect. As for the marketing, even if they want to market it as a cool-toned serum, labeling the product name as a 'cool-toned serum' makes the product's credibility feel a bit lower. Is clear and transparent skin automatically cool-toned? This seems like an outdated marketing approach.
