Pros
It has good moisturizing power. I like that it's fragrance-free. There are no additives.
Cons
I bought it at the duty-free shop, but they don't sell it anymore these days. Nothing else.

Pros
I had adult acne from small acne for 10 years, going back and forth between good and bad. I went to dermatologists a lot and tried all kinds of cosmetics, but this is the best. It moisturizes deeply without stickiness, and applies smoothly and firmly. Of course, the acne disappears.
Cons
It's the price. If the price burden wasn't there, I would keep using it because the acne goes away only when I use this.

Pros
My skin was extremely dehydrated, but even though it was also dry, applying moisturizer wasn't enough. After using the Hydra5, the dryness disappeared. I feel so hydrated and satisfied! 💗 Some people have complained about it, but I didn't experience any issues like that (individual differences?). There were no breakouts for me either.
Cons
It was a gift, but when I buy it again, I'll have to really think it over. The price is outrageous ㅠㅠ

Pros
Here is the translation of the Korean text to English: On February 1, 2016. I've been using this product for about a month after trying it out as a sample. I really like how it's not sticky and feels refreshing, while also providing lasting hydration. :-) ——————————————————— On April 8, 2019. I'm adding an update after 3 years and 2 months. During this time, this Hydra 5B Complex product, along with the High Potency Serum from the same brand, have become my all-time favorite ampoules that never leave my cosmetic fridge and vanity. I've already lost count of how many 30ml and 15ml bottles I've gone through. And I've also highly recommended it to many of my friends who are now using it too. As a Cellex-C enthusiast, here's my real review! 🙂Positive Point 1 - Creamy Texture The texture is quite different from typical hyaluronic acid ampoules. It's not watery or runny like water. To describe it, it's more like a gel-like texture, almost like a plant-based gel. When I use the High Potency Serum, I often feel my skin getting dry quickly, but when I apply this product, it instantly quenches my skin's thirst and makes it feel plump. It also leaves a thin, moisturizing layer on the skin surface. You can feel the creamy, bouncy texture, but it's not heavy, so you can layer other creams on top and maintain the hydration for a long time. 🙂Positive Point 2 - Honest Ingredients It doesn't contain unnecessary, excessive ingredients, which minimizes the risk of skin irritation. It only has sodium hyaluronate for hydration, purified water, and a couple other ingredients. This truly lives up to the name of a hyaluronic acid ampoule and is a representative functional product that showcases why Cellex-C is known as a leader in functional skincare. Because of this, even when I temporarily stray and try other brands, as soon as I experience any issues, I immediately come back to Cellex-C.
Cons
Here is the translation of the additional Korean text to English: 😕Downside 1 - Limited Availability In the past, this product was widely available at department stores, duty-free shops, and online, and it was even featured on home shopping channels. But recently, that doesn't seem to be the case. It's a shame that the options for purchasing this product with a better composition and price have become more limited. 😕Downside 2 - Small Volume (from 2016.02.01.) The volume is small. Of course, this is a highly functional product concentrated with hyaluronic acid, so it's different from regular cosmetic brands. But for someone used to standard skincare, the small size might feel a bit disappointing at first! -> This was a past comment. However, as of 2019, there are now many more functional ampoule/essence products available on the market, and smaller volume options have also become more common. So I don't particularly feel that this product is too small. In fact, even with the same small volume, the Cellex-C product feels much more worthwhile compared to other brands, given its clear effectiveness.
Tip
Here's the translation of the additional Korean text: 🤫Pro Tip - Use it with the High Potency Serum Typically, using a vitamin serum or ampoule from other brands together with an essence from a different brand can still be effective. But in the case of Cellex-C, I strongly recommend using the Hydra 5B Complex together with the High Potency Serum. It might seem obvious, but these two products work so well together that they're almost like a single product. The High Potency Serum gets absorbed into the skin instantly, and you need to immediately follow it up with the Hydra 5B to create a protective moisture barrier. And then applying either the C-Silk Cream or Cellin E Cream on top is just perfect. (I personally find the C-Silk Cream to be a slightly better match for me.)
