(03/24/25) First off, I should mention that I won this emulsion from The Hwahae Testers, so I haven't been able to use it for a long enough period to speak about its effectiveness. I'll leave a more detailed review on its effects after I've used it sufficiently! So far, I haven't seen any brightening effects (after 4 days of use). Let's start with the scent - it has a citrus fragrance that's neither too strong nor too weak. A tangy scent without sweetness? Personally, I think that unless you're extremely sensitive to fragrances, you might find it a bit unusual but not unpleasant. Given that it's a brightening emulsion, I thought the texture wouldn't be light, but it's actually lighter and more hydrating than I expected. As a result, it absorbs well and has great application, so I could apply it multiple times even on pigmented areas like my knees without any issues. (04/27/25) +Brightening effect: There is some, but I haven't seen as much of an effect as I'd like yet (using 4 times a week). It's definitely there though. I compared the photos I took (I won't post them to spare your eyes), and even though they were taken in the same place, the color looks different. It's hard to say exactly how much brighter it's gotten, but the color difference between my knees, shins, and thighs has slightly decreased. Wanting to see more significant results, I started applying the emulsion all over my legs and then layering it 'thickly' on my knees last week (still using it 4 times a week). (In case you're wondering, I'm not only washing once a week...) I'll add another update to my review next time!
ConsWhile it has a light and hydrating texture that absorbs quickly (though not instantly), if you have extremely dry skin or use it alone in the dead of winter, it might not be moisturizing enough. Perhaps due to how well it absorbs, it doesn't leave much of a silky feeling after application. +When applied thickly, it feels a bit tacky even after drying. I'm not sure yet if applying it thickly increases the brightening effect.
TipSince I have significant pigmentation on my knees, I applied it all over my legs and then added an extra layer on my knees.

As it's a vitamin body emulsion, it has a refreshing scent that makes you feel invigorated when applying it, which enhances the overall experience. 2. Although it's slightly thick, it absorbs well into the skin. 3. After application, my skin feels smoother and more refined.
Cons1. The dark-colored container makes it difficult to check how much product is left. 2. After use, the emulsion left around the nozzle tends to harden, so when you pump it next time, some of the hardened product comes out along with the fresh emulsion.

After being a nomad of body emulsions for a while, I've figured out what makes a good one for me: 1) quick absorption, 2) a light, gel-like texture that glides on smoothly, and 3) a non-sticky finish. This Bodytamin product immediately won me over with its excellent application and absorption. It's definitely in my top tier for texture and how well it absorbs. I used to love the yellow Illiyoon (Fresh Yuzu Body Emulsion), and this feels similar in terms of texture, absorption, formula, and scent. (It has that citrusy smell common in vitamin C skincare products.) It's a semi-transparent pale yellow emulsion that applies with a hydrating feel and absorbs instantly. I love that it doesn't sit on top of the skin. I'm really excited about the potential whitening effect. To see if there was a noticeable difference in a short time, I only applied it to one arm. Surprisingly, there actually seems to be a slight color difference between my arms! I'm not sure if one arm has truly become lighter or if it's just temporary, as I haven't been using it for long. But there does seem to be a subtle difference, with the treated area looking a bit brighter. While the close-up iPhone photo makes my skin look quite dry, in reality, the left arm where I applied the emulsion visibly has a more hydrated and smoother skin texture. That's the most noticeable difference!
ConsIt feels moisturizing when you apply it, but as it dries, there's a slight sticky feeling. As it dries further, the stickiness decreases and it feels more powdery. Still, I wish the finish was less tacky. I wonder if this might be characteristic of products containing niacinamide? The niacinamide serum I use on my face also feels like it's drying with a bit of stickiness after application. I'm hoping to come back and update this review after long-term use if I see good results. That concludes my review for now.
