I've been struggling with redness and blemishes lately, along with dryness, but this ampoule seems to be working well!
ConsThe scent was a bit disappointing! There's a slight artificial fragrance, but as long as it's effective, that's what matters. Still, the hydration is top-notch.
TipGently patting it in gives maximum results!

Those with dry skin might benefit from layering it twice.
ConsWhile I'm not sure about dramatic results for blemish care yet, it seems to work well for hydration and soothing the skin.

It contains azulene, which is great for soothing the skin, and an impressive 4% niacinamide that helps with blemish marks. I'd say this ampoule is close to perfect. After using it for two months, I've noticed significant improvement in my blemish marks. The hydration is so good it gives me that coveted Inner Glow. The soothing effect is also amazing. I highly recommend this for oily, combination dehydrated, and dry skin types. You should definitely give it a try!
ConsThe only downsides are the price, which is a bit steep, and the packaging, which could be improved.
TipUse it both morning and evening for best results!

Application: The dropper makes it convenient to apply without dripping, and it spreads easily with a gentle massage, instantly transforming into an ampoule-like texture. Absorption: Absorbs well! Being a hydrating product, it may feel dry if used alone. For best results, apply 1-2 layers after toner, followed by an emulsion. Even with multiple layers, it doesn't pill or leave a residue, absorbing nicely into the skin. Scent: Personally, I love the subtle floral cosmetic scent! It's not overpowering and should be pleasant for most users.
ConsThe ampoule has a truly beautiful blue color, but if only the product container were transparent... we could better appreciate this ethereal ampoule. The packaging is a bit disappointing.
TipFor those with dry skin like mine, try applying it twice! The more you massage it in, the more intense the hydration feels.

Hydration: On the first day, it feels like it absorbs quickly, but the finish is more tacky than moisturizing. However, from day 5 onwards, it feels hydrating and moisture-replenishing! It's a product that becomes more promising with continued use. Absorption: It sinks in immediately with a slightly tacky finish on the surface. Cooling effect: At first, I wondered what this refreshing sensation was, but it turned out to be the cooling effect. Perfect after a shower on a hot day! Moisturizing: Great for use in hot summer! Makeup applies well over it (It has a bouncy finish but doesn't pill!). Scent: Although fragrance is clearly listed in the ingredients, they might have aimed for an unscented product. There's a slightly unusual smell, but it shouldn't be an issue unless you're sensitive. It's better than a strong, unpleasant scent. Personally, I like it.
ConsRather than a downside, I found it puzzling that some reviewers mentioned a floral scent while others said it was unscented. Personally, I prefer the current seemingly unscented feel.
TipIn the morning, apply two layers, allow some time for absorption, then apply makeup - it works wonderfully! Great for makeup application!

The absorption is excellent too. I think this could work for all skin types. It's a great serum for boosting hydration! I'd especially recommend it for those dealing with blemish marks or hyperpigmentation. Since I had some acne scars, I gave it a try and got lots of compliments on how clear my complexion looked. I found it effective enough to use on its own.
ConsI haven't really found many downsides yet... Well, I guess the scent could be improved a bit. Other than that, everything else is great!
TipIt worked wonderfully when I applied it after using toner pads as a mask.

ConsWhile it claimed to reduce blemishes and acne marks, I didn't notice much improvement in that area.

Real-use review: Lately, my skin has been so dehydrated that makeup doesn't adhere well, and after cleansing, my face feels tight immediately. So, I've been looking for hydrating ampoules and decided to try the Trace Hydrating Ampoule. The texture is thin but not as runny as water - it has a slightly bouncy feel? When applied to the back of my hand, it does run a bit, but it absorbs instantly into the skin, which I loved! There's an immediate cooling effect that feels so refreshing, and when applied after warm cleansing, it reduces facial heat, leaving me feeling completely revitalized. The scent is a subtle cosmetic fragrance that dissipates quickly when applied, so even those sensitive to fragrances shouldn't find it bothersome. I'm not particularly sensitive, so it felt almost unscented to me! Even with my combination dehydrated skin, it felt like it deeply hydrated my skin, maintaining moisture without any dryness! The finish is non-greasy and light, making it suitable for use all year round. As for blemish improvement, I haven't used it long enough to notice any effects, but I'm satisfied with the non-irritating formula and how nicely it applies under makeup.
ConsThere weren't really any downsides. The packaging might be a bit too cute and playful for some people's tastes.
TipIt's hydrating with a nice finish, so it's great for both morning and night care. In summer, you could probably just use an exfoliating toner followed by this for a perfect, lightweight routine!

Especially since my skin tends to become super sensitive and act up once or twice a month, I always use soothing products with good hydration. The Mamonde Calming Shot Azulene Ampoule worked quite well for me in that regard. The texture is lightweight yet sufficiently hydrating, leaving my skin feeling comfortable after use. Even when applied to irritated skin, it provided a soothing effect without any tingling sensation. After using it for a few days during sensitive periods, I noticed that redness and irritation in affected areas seemed to calm down noticeably. Overall, I was satisfied with both its hydrating and soothing effects.
ConsThe only downside I found was the dropper. The gripping area felt a bit short, making it slightly difficult to apply pressure and somewhat uncomfortable to use. While the product itself wasn't bad, this might have been just my experience, so take it as a minor consideration.
TipI would consider repurchasing this product and would especially recommend it to those looking for a soothing ampoule to use during sensitive skin periods.

When touched, the bouncy jelly texture feels like it's bursting with hydration the moment it's applied! Being a water-jelly formula, I initially thought the moisture would only sit on the surface, but it actually locks in deep hydration, making it perfect for seasonal transitions. Especially with its soothing cooling effect, it doesn't feel sticky or heavy, so I highly recommend it for those with combination dehydrated skin prone to deep dryness! User Experience Lately, any product I applied would emphasize dead skin cells once I put on makeup, but using this seems to completely balance out my deep dryness & oil and moisture balance! I have a combination skin type with active sebum production in the T-zone, particularly around the nose, and dry cheeks, making it challenging to balance oil and moisture. This product seems to regulate sebum production just right while replenishing the lacking moisture! It might be even better for those with combination to combination dehydrated, or oily skin types! Soothing Effect These days, the 'Inner Glow' look is trending, but personally, I think that no matter how beautiful the glow is, if the underlying skin tone is uneven or not clear, it can actually look messy. However, this product seems to break the vicious cycle of recurring blemishes by balancing the disrupted oil and moisture balance! Usually, when it comes to skin soothing, I only looked for cica products, but for my skin, azulene seems to have a better soothing effect! Cooling Effect Among products with cooling effects, I find that if the cooling is too intense, it can actually make my skin sensitive and cause it to heat up and turn red. This one isn't too extreme, which I like! It's just a pleasant coolness! I noticed it seemed to soothe faster, especially when used after cleansing or exfoliating products when the skin becomes sensitive due to physical stimulation.
ConsBrightening Effect Personally, while the soothing effect is good, I didn't see much of a brightening effect. Overall, as blemishes and redness are calmed, the complexion looks cleaner, but I didn't notice significant changes in localized areas where I already had severe pigmentation due to blemishes. It's satisfactory for quick redness relief, but for targeted brightening of marks, it's just an okay product!
