The fragrance is a subtle citrus that is not overpowering, which I found to be good. The product felt heavier than expected given the level of moisture it provides, but I found it to be better for application.
ConsIt is an essence, so the moisture content is abundant and good, but the feeling of protected skin barrier and nourishment is relatively less. I am applying another serum along with the essence. The two have slightly different characteristics, so the complementary use works well.

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 been using it for exactly one week since receiving it on February 3rd. The fragrance is refreshing and pleasant to apply. The dropper applicator feels light and good to use. It's easy to apply lightly and has an absorbing, fresh feel, but there were no significant changes in terms of clearer, brighter, or glowing skin. I would recommend this as a daily essence for those who are not dry-skinned and want something undemanding to use.
ConsIn my personal experience, those with oily skin may find this product to feel a bit sticky and heavy when applied after toning, as the absorption and spreadability can feel excessive for their skin type. As a dry-skinned individual, I found this product to leave my skin feeling a bit parched, so I would follow up with a spray-type ampoule to help lock in moisture and hydration. I believe layering this product with an ampoule or cream would help maximize its benefits. However, it's difficult to see significant changes after just 7 days of using this product morning and night.

First of all, it has a refreshing scent(?) that makes me feel good every time I apply it. Moreover, it has good absorption, so it's easy to apply lightly.
ConsThe glow booster hasn't quite lived up to my expectations yet. While it's possible the effects may become more apparent with continued use, I'm a bit disappointed that I didn't see immediate results after applying it.

It is described as a highly concentrated essence, and you can really feel the high concentration as soon as you apply it to the skin. It's not as thick as mucus, but more like a Nordic C<water. The usage feel is not overly sticky, but has a moderately dense finish. The fragrance is a bit strong, but it's very sweet and pleasant, so I like it.
ConsThere wasn't really anything disappointing. It's highly concentrated, so the finish is a bit heavy, but it's not to the point of being rejected, and it's absorbed quickly, so it's fine.

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.ProsHere is a review of using the product for over a week: The spreadability and absorption were very good. It's not a water-based formula, but has a slight viscosity. Once absorbed, it leaves a clean, non-sticky finish. The scent is a refreshing citrus, but not overpowering. The fragrance almost completely disappears once fully absorbed. Even those sensitive to scents should be able to use this product without issue. As a vitamin-based product, I had high expectations for the brightening effects. While I haven't seen dramatic whitening or fading of dark spots yet in this first week, I do feel my skin is looking clearer overall. I'm hopeful the effects will continue to improve with more consistent use. The standout for me is the sense that high-quality, beneficial ingredients have been used. I can feel the nourishing effects penetrating my skin. The overall texture and smoothness of my skin has visibly improved. And despite my usually reactive skin, I haven't experienced any breakouts, likely due to the lack of oil in the formula. This has been a major plus. I plan to continue using this serum consistently, as it seems gentle yet effective for my skin.
ConsEven if I had to find it, I think it would have been better without the fragrance. Personally, I prefer fragrance-free, but the citrus fragrance isn't overwhelmingly strong. For dry skin types, using this product alone may not be enough to fully hydrate, and you'll likely need to use a cream on top for perfect moisturization. It doesn't seem suitable for standalone use as a hydrating product.
TipI used a toner for exfoliating, followed by a serum and then a cream, and my skin felt comfortable and great! If you find ampoules burdensome, you can try starting by mixing a little bit into your cream and applying it that way.

It's a bit on the heavier side. The scent is refreshing, like citrus or orange๐ After absorbing, there's a warm? scent that lingers. I personally enjoyed the fragrant, mood-lifting scent, but those who prefer unscented or dislike artificial fragrances may find it too strong. The application and absorption: While the texture is initially thick, it spreads well and becomes incredibly bouncy over time! After a short wait, the bouncy sensation fades and it transforms into a smooth, silky finish (absorbs quickly!). Though silky, it leaves a lovely, dewy glow on the face!๐ Effects: Many have commented that my complexion looked brighter after using this ampoule! It seems to help brighten and clarify the skin.โญ๏ธ Recommended skin type: The dewy finish makes it suitable for dry skin, but those with sensitive skin may find the bouncy texture irritating, so caution is advised!๐โโ๏ธ
ConsAt first, I was not used to the dense texture, so it was difficult to pat or roll, but once I got used to it, it was quickly absorbed and became soft and fluffy, which was great.~๐ Furthermore, the dense texture may be a bit irritating for sensitive skin! (When I rolled it on during the initial dense phase, my sensitive chin area felt a bit irritating.ใ ใ However, once I got used to the texture, it didn't feel irritating at all.๐ค)
TipI left it in the bathroom and immediately applied it after washing my face and removing the moisture! In the evening, I applied about 1 and a half droppers' worth and massaged it up to my neck while rolling it, and as soon as it was quickly absorbed and felt soft and fluffy, I applied the cream and finished up!(No toner) The formula is a bit heavy, so for those using a skin or toner, it's best to use it before the ampoule and it will be good to apply. At first, it's not very fluffy, but as you roll it, it becomes fluffy! If you wait a moment then, it is quickly absorbed, and you can feel a moisturized, soft skin texture! The formula is a bit dense, so in the morning I only applied about half a dropper to my face, and since it has a whitening effect, I made sure to apply sunscreen!

It has a slightly orange-like or vitamin-like scent that I find pleasant when applying it. While my skin is somewhat sensitive, I didn't experience any irritation or breakouts when using it. I mainly use it as part of my nighttime skincare routine, and would recommend applying it in the evenings rather than mornings.
ConsThe formulation is somewhat sticky, so if applied excessively, it can leave a tacky feeling not only on the face but also on the hands. Therefore, if you prefer a lightweight essence texture, this product may not be suitable.

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.ProsHere is a review after using the product for a little under 2 weeks. (Normal skin) *Fragrance The fragrance matches the vitamin essence - it has a refreshing scent! It's not overpowering, just a subtle and pleasant scent when applied. *Texture It has a substantial essence texture. *Application The essence texture is just right - not too light or heavy. I've tried many serums, and this one has one of the best applications. *Absorption The most surprising aspect of this product was its absorption. After applying, it gets absorbed quickly with just a few pats. There's no oiliness or stickiness, and even in the winter, my skin didn't feel tight at all. *Effectiveness The duration of use has been relatively short, so I haven't seen major effects yet, but I'm hopeful my skin will become brighter with continued use. Also, my makeup seems to apply better after using this product. *Recommended Skin Type Normal, oily, combination (1 month review) After about a month of use, my skin texture has become smoother and I no longer have any dry patches.๐๐ป My face looks brighter and more radiant. My makeup also applies better since I started using this. At first I wasn't sure about the effects, but now I'm very satisfied, so I came back to write this updated review!
ConsThere are not many downsides, but if you wish to use it, it would be best to avoid the very dry winter season!
TipIndividuals with dry skin types would benefit from applying moisturizing products during the pre- and post-cleansing steps.

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, it's a water-rich formulation that quickly falls off the cheek. It's not heavy and applies lightly. So I washed my face and applied it right away. The scent is citrus, but it's quite strong. I'm sensitive, but there were no breakouts. In fact, I tried another product in the middle, and it backfired. So even now, it's in that state, but this one has no issues and is light, so I'm still drawn to it in this state. I heard that my skin improved after using this for a week, and it's actually true.
ConsI will also honestly mention the drawbacks! The price range is a bit high compared to the capacity. They say it spreads well even in small amounts, but..ใ And I'm not sure if it's because I'm using it together with Leedle Shot, but the formula has moisture, but it's not enough to fill the necessary moisture. Since it's winter, those with dry skin will go crazy if they use this alone. Of course, since it's an essence, I won't use it alone, but there may be those who have come with expectations of whitening effects as it contains vitamin C. But expecting results after just 2 weeks is too greedy. I'll use it for at least 3 more months and leave another review. But maybe it's because it's winter, I feel like it's made me a bit whiter.. I'll come back in 3 months.
TipI've heard people say that my skin has gotten better since I started using this, and my skincare routine was like this: Cleansing -> Apply this -> Retinol 100 -> Hyaluronic Acid Serum -> Repair Cream or Damask Recovery Cream I sometimes also put on a hydrating pad in between. You can also use a Niacinamide Serum instead of the Hyaluronic Acid Serum, since it has Vitamin C.

I compared it with the existing product of another company. First of all, it is definitely moisturizing and refreshing. The product of the other company is the same vitamin C serum, but the scent is not very good. Just smelling it makes you not want to apply it... In comparison, this one has a fruit scent like orange, so when you apply it, there is no aversion and you want to keep applying it. I usually layer the serum and apply it in multiple layers, but this product is refreshing when applied and there is no stickiness, and apart from a slight stickiness after drying, it was fine. The absorption was also fast, so it was great for layering. After applying, it also seems to have a slightly less oily feeling. My parents also used it together, and they said it was definitely better than the product they were using before. They said the scent is too good.
ConsIn my opinion, there were no major shortcomings. The fragrance was good and it felt refreshing.
