They say if you skimp on vitamin-based skincare, you're in trouble, so I applied this generously morning and night. It's an ampoule with a mustard cream-like color and a slightly viscous texture. There was some tingling when I used it (I think due to the spicule shot). I've heard that pure vitamin C concentrations between 10-20% are ideal, so at 15%, this seems perfect. The scent wasn't unpleasant! It was so hydrating that I didn't need to add any other serums. It spread well and absorbed nicely. Although I haven't used it for more than 2 weeks yet, so I haven't noticed any dramatic effects, I think with consistent use it might help fade my dark spots.
ConsIt might have irritated my skin, as I experienced some small blemishes and redness on the first day of use.
TipDue to the skin irritation, I slathered on panthenol cream and lots of moisturizer. When redness appeared, I either took a day off or only applied it in the evening. To maximize its effectiveness, I used it after cleansing with a low pH cleanser and toning. I layered it twice, waited about 5 minutes for absorption, and then applied cream. After morning use, I applied more sunscreen than usual. While using this, I avoided creams with collagen ingredients.

Texture: It has a runny consistency but isn't sticky. It absorbs into the skin, leaving it feeling hydrated. Unlike other spicule ampoules, the micro-spicules don't cause any tingling or irritation, making it comfortable to use. Effectiveness: The spicules are said to help deliver active ingredients effectively, and you can definitely feel an immediate brightening effect. Using it at night noticeably improves complexion. Even after not using it for a few days, I could see my dark spots becoming lighter. It contains panthenol and hyaluronic acid for hydration, but as someone with combination dehydrated skin, I found it slightly drying. Scent: It has a mild citrusy scent that isn't overwhelming. It gives you that vitamin boost feeling! The scent dissipates quickly, so it doesn't feel too artificial.
ConsIt was a bit drying for me, so I make sure to follow up with a hydrating cream after the spicules have opened up the skin's pathways. If you use it daily, you might notice some small bumps appearing. For those with sensitive skin prone to irritation like mine, it might be better to use it every other day rather than daily.
TipI recommend refrigerating it and using it within a month after opening. Use the included dropper - it's clean and makes it easy to control the amount you use.

Since we often apply these Vitamin C products before bed, sticky ones can feel unpleasant when they touch the bedding, but this product wasn't like that, which was great. Less skin irritation Usually, high-concentration Vitamin C products can cause tingling or a burning sensation when used on sensitive skin, but I never felt this product was irritating. It was good for daily use without any issues.
ConsDryness Less stickiness also means the texture is somewhat lighter, which might feel dry for those with dry skin. That's why I always follow up with a rich cream in the next step. If you don't provide enough hydration, small bumps can appear on the forehead one by one. Packaging I'm not sure if it's just the product I received, but even though it was new, the contents didn't come up well in the dropper. I think I'll have to just pour it into my hand to use it later.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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.ProsFirst off, I'm keeping this product refrigerated as recommended on the label - just a heads up! Texture: It's not runny at all. The consistency is quite thick and has a yellow tint to it. Scent: It's refreshing, but not exactly like lemons or oranges. It's more reminiscent of vitamin tablets, if you know what I mean. Experience: For context, I have extremely dry and sensitive skin. The texture is thick yet spreads smoothly. Unlike some 100-300 micron exfoliating products that can feel a bit rough and irritating, this one doesn't have that effect. I love exfoliating products, but my sensitive skin limits how often I can use them. This Toning Vita Ampoule, however, doesn't give me that harsh feeling, which is great. It also provides a decent amount of hydration. I didn't notice much difference when I first applied it, but looking at photos, I can see that my previously uneven complexion looks more balanced! I've only been using it for about a week, so I haven't noticed any fading of dark spots yet, but my overall skin tone definitely seems more uniform. There's this subtle feeling that my skin has improved. Given its high vitamin content, I tend to apply it mainly at night. I'm satisfied that it hasn't caused any adverse reactions on my skin.
ConsThere's nothing particularly bad, but if I had to mention something, it might be that due to the nature of vitamin products, the shelf life is quite short - about a month. Update: In the second week, I experienced some minor blemishes and I'm currently working on calming them down. While it doesn't feel irritating when applied, if you have super sensitive skin, it might be better to use it less frequently and pay attention to your skin's condition rather than applying it daily.
TipSince this is a high-concentration vitamin product, it's best to store it in the refrigerator and use it before the expiration date. As time passes, it may develop a strong, characteristic vitamin smell, so make sure to use it up within the recommended period without trying to save it. This product contains exfoliating particles, so I'm using a separate eye cream around my eyes!

When applied to the face, it feels a bit concentrated, but it absorbs well overall as you spread it. After application, it leaves a subtle glow, making your skin feel as if you've used a nourishing cream. The hydration is truly impressive. However, if you don't allow it to absorb fully or rush the application, it can leave a slightly sticky residue. Despite containing spicules, which I thought might cause a tingling sensation, I didn't feel any irritation at all. Interestingly, it enhances the absorption of your finishing moisturizer, which is a nice bonus. There's a subtle citrus scent, but it's not bothersome at all.
ConsWhile I enjoyed the rich texture and how it made my skin feel firmer, it seems this product doesn't agree with my skin. Even though I only applied it at night, I started developing blemishes one by one, forcing me to discontinue use. I guess this product was too nutrient-rich for my skin.

After applying it consistently for 5 days, my complexion became a bit brighter. Absorbs: It glides on smoothly and feels refreshing Absorbs well: When you massage it in, it sinks right into the skin Recommended skin type: Oily or combination dehydrated skin Reason: There was a slight sticky feeling, so I was worried about blemishes, but no blemishes appeared and it quickly absorbed, seeming to help with deep dryness a bit Scent: It smelled like drinkable vitamin C, not unpleasant at all
ConsThe small size was the biggest disappointment. It's too expensive to use as a daily care product. I got some itching on my forehead followed by blemishes
TipApply a small amount on the forehead Use it for night care rather than daily care Apply after using an exfoliating toner
