I have a dry skin type, not extremely oily. Since it's winter, I've been mainly using moisturizing products. My skin is not overly sensitive, so you can keep that in mind. I also don't tend to get many breakouts. This serum is divided into a transparent oil on top and a pink(?) layer on the bottom. Even after shaking, it doesn't fully mix when applied to the back of the hand or the skin. It has an oily texture, but it absorbs well when patted onto the skin. Unlike other hydrating serums, there's no sticky, tacky feeling after application. It just leaves a subtle glow on the face. If you like the look of natural, inner-lit skin, this could be a good option. It provides a glow that highlighters can't quite replicate.
ConsThis serum focuses on *radiance*, so it doesn't have many other special functions like intense hydration or tone improvement. However, if you apply this serum before makeup, it can give a subtle glow effect even when using a matte cushion foundation. (By the way, the taste is not great if you accidentally ingest it)
TipApply it before makeup! I applied it right before putting on my foundation!

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros🧡Product appearance and packaging The product is divided into two layers, yellow and pink, so it needs to be shaken before use! Typically, basic products are often white or transparent, but this one has a vibrant and pretty color, which somehow makes me feel good. 🧡Formulation It's an oil-based product, so I felt it really locked in the moisture. As the name suggests, this product is definitely high in oil content. Using it not only with the Nordic C Berry Oil Cocktail product but also with ampoules or emulsions would be even better. It seems like a great product to use during the dry winter season! 🧡Product features The product contains oil extracted from Arctic berries, so I felt the moisturizing power was good. I'm glad I received this in the winter! 🧡Recommended skin type It's oily and high in oil content, so I recommend it for dry skin. Oily skin types may experience excess sebum and breakouts.
ConsAs mentioned in other reviews, people with oily skin may experience breakouts! The low oil content, which is a plus, can actually be a downside.🙁 I have normal skin, so it was fine for me, but the formula was quite oily due to its nature. I don't mind the color, but I prefer fragrance-free products, especially for base makeup. This Nordic C Berry Oil Cocktail has a fruity scent. Those sensitive to fragrance may not like it.🙁 While it doesn't completely lack the 20 key ingredients, you should still be mindful of that when purchasing. Other than that, I don't have any other complaints.
TipAs mentioned above, it would be better to use the Nordic C Berry Oil Cocktail product not on its own, but together with ampoules or emulsions. This product is perfect for use during the currently dry winter season!!

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsFor 2 weeks, I used it on both dry and oily skin. The scent was subtle and long-lasting, which I liked. The formula is slightly watery like a serum when mixed. It absorbs well. For oily skin, I only used 1 pump before bed and it improved the irritation around my mouth, and my skin looked good the next day. For dry skin, it was great!! I usually used 1 pump, and even 2 pumps, and my skin was moisturized enough that I didn't need to apply cream afterwards. But it's not overly slippery. While applying, my skin condition was good - no irritation. I found it helpful to apply a little when going out in the cold or to a hot basketball court - my skin didn't get dry or irritated. Compared to using oils separately, this is easier to apply without being too slippery or runny. I think it's good to adjust the amount used, except in the summer.
ConsIf you use a lot of it, you can naturally fall behind. I found it good to combine with a thick, non-greasy cream. And be careful when using around the ✳️eyes✳! It's uncomfortable if it gets in your eyes. Even after wiping or rubbing, it kept going. And even if you shake it and use it, over time it doesn't go back to how it was at first, but becomes a pinkish layer + a slightly reddish layer.
Tip◽Use with thick, sticky cosmetics ◽Caution when using around the eyes

It also had good spreadability, not being a watery formula. The separation of the oil layer and water layer is also an excellent feature of this product, as it helps maintain a good oil-water balance!
ConsI would not recommend it to those with dry skin. The product also has a high oil content, so it may be too oily. The moisture may not be fully absorbed as well.
TipApply a generous amount of modeling pack before use. It's great, awesome!

I really dislike stickiness when applying base products, but this product didn't have that, which I liked. The scent was also not unpleasant, so I was satisfied. After using it for about a week, I felt like my skin had a glow. My makeup also seemed to apply better than before. Although I received it as a promotion, I was so satisfied that I intend to purchase the full-size product once I finish this one.
ConsAt first, the oily feeling was a bit disappointing. The absorption was quite fast, so there wasn't really a big problem, but since most beginners are unable to properly facilitate absorption, I think this product might be a bit difficult to apply for those people.

It's not overpowering at all, but rather natural and comforting, allowing me to use it without any burden. And the texture is lighter than expected. Even though it's an oil, when applied to the skin, it absorbs immediately without leaving a greasy residue, resulting in a moisturized finish. My skin tends to be dull and dry, but after using this, it has become remarkably soft and hydrated. When I apply it in the morning, my skin looks brighter and more radiant, so I've been incorporating it into my daily skincare routine lately.
ConsWhile it may have a slightly oily feel, it worked well for my dry skin. However, for those with oily skin, it could feel greasy and shiny in the morning. I applied it lightly, and it felt comfortable on my skin. So, those with oily skin should use just the right amount.
TipI recommend applying this oil and then layering a cream on top. Using the two together gives a feeling of doubled hydration, making the skin more moisturized and healthy. Also, applying it at night and sleeping in it leaves the skin much softer and more supple in the morning!!!

The fragrance was so nice, it's the top-tier among all the cosmetics I've used so far... It has a citrusy and sweet strawberry scent, and I'd even want to use it as a room freshener. 🍓🍓 As someone who really cares about fragrance, I loved it!! 2. The application! This was also good. It's not in a dropper format, but it's a pump, so it's easy to dispense, and it has both an oily and a moisturizing feel, so it's easy to apply smoothly!☺️ 3. The moisture! I have a combination skin type, but this had just the right balance of oiliness and moisturization, which I liked! Some moisturizing serums can be too drying, and oily ones can feel heavy, but this felt good all day long.😊 In the end, it's so pretty... it's the best one I've ever used.😇
ConsI'm not sure if the dramatic effects are noticeable since I have relatively fair skin. However, based on the ingredients, the product containing vitamin C seems like it would be good for skin brightening. :)

The formula itself is divided into an oil layer and a water layer, so it's a highly moisturizing formula that you blend together. I would recommend this to those with dry skin.
ConsFor those with dry skin, there may be a slight oily feeling due to the presence of an oil layer.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe feel was good as it applied smoothly and softly. The scent was not too strong or sweet, but a refreshing citrus-like one, so it felt nice to apply. After applying, it left a moisturized feeling, giving a sense of care, which I enjoyed. While I'm not sure if it quickly faded dark spots, it definitely helped with moisture management. I used it morning and night, and from the third day onward, the tightness after cleansing significantly decreased, and I also noticed less tightness when I woke up in the morning. Since it's an oil product, I'd recommend it for dry skin types. If you have dry skin, you'll likely feel the moisturizing effects and see good results. As an oil product, the absorption is quite good. It doesn't leave a greasy, oily feel, but applies smoothly and softly, so it doesn't feel burdensome.
ConsAt first, the oil didn't mix as well as expected, so I had to shake it for a long time. After mixing, when I pumped it, it would separate again quickly, so I had to apply it hurriedly. If the oily feeling is strong and you are not used to the oil or feel averse to the oily residue on your face, it's probably better to use a smaller amount at first. I initially used it with one pump, but a week later, I was able to use up to three pumps without any issues.
TipApplying the oil essence and having some left on my hands, I rubbed it on the heels of my feet, and it worked great! Since I wash my feet anyway when bathing, I just wiped off the excess moisture and applied it when my feet were slightly damp, and it was effective.

I'm a complete dry skin type, but it immediately takes care of the dry feeling. :) It's moisturizing on the outside and gets absorbed without any tightness on the inside! The application is not bad, and it's moisturizing, so it spreads well.
ConsEvery time I apply it, I have to shake it a lot, which is a bit disappointing about the slight stickiness.
