I already had a bit of a sheen, but this isn't just a surface shine - it's more like a radiance that comes from within? I really liked that kind of natural luminosity. The hydration lasts for a long time. Even a while after applying the serum, my skin doesn't feel tight, which was especially nice in this dry weather we've been having. The application feels great. It's not too runny or too heavy, so when you smooth it on, it spreads easily and somehow makes your skin feel comfortable. There's a sense that it refines the skin texture. The rough or uneven areas seem to have calmed down, and makeup definitely applies more smoothly now. The color is subtly pretty. There's a soft pink tint that makes you feel good when you apply it, like it's bringing life to your face? It's not heavy, so I use it without worry in the morning. Even if I apply makeup right after, there's no pilling. Instead, it seems to make my skin look even better. Two days ago, someone complimented me on my skin!
ConsThe amount dispensed with one pump is a bit much. It was a little tricky to control the pump at first, so too much product would come out. Now I've gotten the hang of it and can use it properly.
TipIn the evening, I applied a second layer, and the next day my skin felt less tight and my makeup went on more smoothly.

First, my skin tone seems subtly brighter! The texture is quite rich and doesn't slide off easily. It applies smoothly and absorbs quickly, making it great to use before makeup. It worked well even on my super sensitive skin without causing any blemishes. When I layered it twice before bed, I woke up with smoother skin and long-lasting hydration. I think consistent use will yield even better results. I especially recommend this for dry, dehydrated skin that becomes sensitive during seasonal changes.
ConsThere's a slight stickiness right after application, but it absorbs well after a short while and the sticky feeling disappears. I wouldn't consider this a significant drawback.

Even with my extremely dry skin, applying just this one product was enough. I love that the scent is sweet but not artificial or overpowering, so it doesn't cause headaches. It gives your face a beautiful, radiant glow!
ConsThe stickiness is quite significant... I prefer to spread products and let them absorb rather than patting them in. When applied around the eyes, my eyelids stuck together, making it difficult to open and close my eyes. It was hard to notice the advertised effects... While this could be due to the short testing period, those expecting quick improvements in their skin might be disappointed.
TipTo be honest, perhaps because it was marketed as a PDRN cosmetic, I had high expectations, but I didn't really notice any significant effects or benefits. I'll update if I see improvements with continued use, but for now, I absolutely wouldn't recommend this to anyone looking for quick results or those who dislike sticky products. However, it might not be a bad choice for those wanting to combat dryness with just one serum and achieve multiple skincare goals!

For an objective review, I've been using only this serum and a toner since receiving the product, applying it generously morning and night. The texture is a clear berry color with rich hydration, and it's surprisingly more moisturizing than I expected. I thought it would feel like a typical hydrating serum, but it's actually quite thick and absorbs well, leaving a nice finish. For those with dry skin, the level of hydration might be slightly lacking. I started noticing the product's effectiveness after 3 days of use. Recently, due to the changing seasons, my skin has been quite dry. When applying mineral sunscreen or tinted products in the morning, I could see visible flaking that bothered me. However, after using this product for a few days, those issues disappeared. It provides sufficient hydration and does a great job of evening out skin texture.
ConsThere weren't any particular downsides, though there is a slight stickiness right after application that disappears over time. I've been part of The Hwahae Testers many times before, but there weren't many products I felt compelled to purchase with my own money. However, I'll definitely buy this one when I run out. I've tried several other PDRN products before without much excitement, but Real Barrier is clearly different. It's a brand I personally love, and this product is undoubtedly well-made.

My dry skin looks dewy and radiant after use, with a beautiful glow. I was worried about potential blemishes, but thankfully there were none - I'm so pleased! The pump dispenser is great, delivering just the right amount with each use.
ConsWhile I love the product, I wish it came in a larger size. It would be great if there was a more generous volume available next time.
TipWhen used generously as part of my nighttime routine, my skin feels wonderfully hydrated when I cleanse in the morning!

I have very dry skin, which has been especially dehydrated lately! ✔ Texture: It's a slightly runny gel type that applies smoothly to the skin and absorbs quickly. It sinks in lightly without any stickiness, making it great for both morning and evening use. ✔ Scent: There's a subtle herbal fragrance that doesn't feel artificial or overwhelming. However, those with super sensitive skin should take note. ✔ Hydration: It keeps the skin moisturized for quite a long time. ✔ Soothing effect: While my dry, sensitive skin did feel calmer, I'm not certain if it's solely due to this product. However, I can confirm that it didn't cause any new blemishes! ✔ Other effects: As for brightening and anti-aging effects, I can't tell yet due to the short period of use.
ConsFor extremely dry skin, the hydration level was slightly lacking. It might work better when used in combination with other products. The glass bottle packaging looks luxurious, but it's not very portable. If you want to carry it around, you'll need to transfer it to a different container.

However, this formula feels moisturizing without those issues, which I really appreciate. After using it, my skin looks dewy and radiant, like it has that coveted 'Inner Glow'. It's perfect for my dry skin type. While I'll need to use it more consistently to see long-term results, I've already noticed my complexion looks a bit brighter than before. My skin tends to be both dry and super sensitive, often reacting with blemishes when I use the wrong products. So far, I haven't experienced any irritation or skin stress with this serum.
ConsThe fact that it's almost fragrance-free could be seen as a plus, but the faint scent it does have might be polarizing. Personally, I found the subtle fragrance a bit bothersome when applied to my face. While it doesn't leave my skin feeling tight, there is a slightly sticky residue left even after it's fully absorbed. It seems suitable for those with dry skin, but people with oily skin might find it a bit too rich.
TipI'm currently using a toner pad with PDRN before this serum, and using them together seems to create a synergistic effect. While the change isn't dramatic, my skin does look noticeably brighter. For those who find this serum a bit heavy, I'd recommend following up with a lightweight moisturizer instead of a richer cream.

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.ProsOut of all The Hwahae Testers serums I've tried so far, this is the one I've used most frequently and am now reviewing. The rosy red, jelly-like texture applies smoothly and absorbs well into the skin. While I'm currently dealing with severe deep dryness and dead skin cells around my mouth and nose areas that are challenging to address with serum alone, I found it very comfortable and easy to use on other parts of my face. I was initially concerned about the promised glow, worried it might be too shiny or create an overwhelming dewy look (which I'm not a fan of). However, during absorption, it gives a beautiful luminosity that then softens as it sinks in. The serum provides adequate hydration on its own, allowing me to use lighter products in the following steps of my skincare routine. I think it'll work even better once the weather warms up and my skin condition improves.
ConsThe pump makes a slight squeaking noise when dispensing the product. Other than that, I didn't find any drawbacks with the serum itself.
TipAfter thoroughly absorbing this serum, I found that applying a face pad significantly helped with dryness (I used Skinfood's carrot pads and Isoi's blemish pads).

I was satisfied using this one because it contains PDRN, which can nourish the skin. The runny serum texture made it easy to pump and apply without any hassle. I found it best to use generously at night rather than in the morning. It was especially helpful for my dry areas around the mouth - applying a layer, letting it absorb, then adding another layer really helped reduce the dryness.
ConsPerhaps due to recent stress, I experienced a slight burning sensation on my skin after using the product. This occurred initially but subsided after about a week. The product did leave a bit of stickiness after application. While it doesn't persist, those with super sensitive skin might find it bothersome.
TipI noticed my skin had a beautiful glow the morning after applying a generous amount in the evening. However, it does take some time to absorb, so it's best to apply it well, let it sink in, and then add another layer to any areas that need extra attention.

Application: As you can see, the texture is like a runny gel and it absorbs well. Many say it's very sticky, but I didn't find it excessively so. It felt more like a nicely absorbing, bouncy texture!! I really care about how products feel when applied, and I liked that this one didn't feel greasy or cause any burning sensation. While it's not exactly a fresh, clean feeling, I found it easy to apply without any issues - it feels lightweight on the skin. Scent: If you're sensitive to fragrances, you'll be pleased to know it's unscented, so it shouldn't cause any problems. I appreciated the lack of artificial scents! Effects: While I didn't notice any dramatic changes, it provides good hydration and seems to give an instant glow. I've been using it for just under two weeks, but I think longer use would yield even better results. I've always been a fan of Real Barrier because their products don't feel excessive or artificial. This product continues that trend - it brightens and moisturizes just the right amount, which I really appreciate!
ConsThe texture itself isn't particularly light or fresh, so if you're sensitive to that, it might be a hit or miss! I noticed a slight increase in oiliness when waking up in the morning.
TipI've been applying this after using Leegeehaam (LJH) Tea Tree 90 Essence. While I can't say it enhances the effects, it does seem to make my skin feel more bouncy. I think using it with a skincare device would be even more beneficial.
