The rose's natural fragrance is perceptible, without any artificial scents that would be off-putting. When applied, the fragrant aroma is refreshing and uplifting, especially when used in the morning after cleansing. The product also absorbs quickly into the skin. Yet, it does not leave the skin feeling dry. With the inclusion of oils, the moisturizing effect is high, but it does not feel heavy or greasy - just lightweight and hydrating. The 130ml volume may seem small, but since I only use it on my face, I was able to use one bottle for over 3 months. It lasts longer than expected.
ConsThis is a whitening and anti-aging functional product, but even after finishing an entire bottle, I did not see any effects. While consistent use of several bottles over a few years may yield results, a single bottle is unlikely to deliver the promised functional benefits.
TipMixing a drop of this product into a thick sunscreen can improve the application and make the skin feel more hydrated.

No trouble or irritation: None. The ingredients seem decent too. Texture: It's a slightly runny serum formula. Absorption: It absorbs quickly into the skin. Moisturizing: The moisturizing ability is also decent. However, it may be insufficient on its own for use outside of summer. This was a gift product, and if you enjoy rose scents, this would be a satisfactory serum.
ConsTrue to its name, the Rose Serum has a strong rose fragrance. The scent is a bit overpowering, so those sensitive to fragrances may dislike it. It claims to help with whitening and wrinkle improvement, but the effects are difficult to perceive.

I have oily skin and get about 2-5 small pimples a week that come and go. I really dislike feeling oily, so I can't stand excess sebum at all. Even so, I've been feeling like my skin has been getting drier lately, so I was thinking of trying some more basic skincare products, and I happened to have this, so I gave it a try. Pros) It's extremely lightweight - I used to use the Yun-jo Essence (Sulwhasoo) and the Night Repair Serum (Estée Lauder), and even the Yun-jo Essence felt quite lightweight, but this serum was really like water, even more so than a toner. The application also didn't feel sticky at all. Personally, I don't like sticky textures, so the feel of this product wasn't bad for me.
ConsI thought serums and essences were for nourishing the skin and replenishing moisture, and I tried this because my skin has been getting dry lately, but it feels a bit too lightweight, so I'm not sure if it will be effective. I think the whitening and wrinkle improvement effects would take a while to see.
TipI think this would be good for people with oily skin.

ConsI'm not sure about the whitening and wrinkle effects yet Hmm.. it seems to lack any distinctive features

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.ProsThe Aromatica products are great with good ingredients and gentle, so I really like them. I first tried this as a sample and liked it so much that I bought the full-size product. As soon as I apply it, it feels so moisturizing and nice~ But after using up the sample and switching to other products, I started to feel some dryness, and realized how good this product was. The runny texture absorbs well, and since I only need 2-3 drops, the volume lasts for several months.
ConsIt might feel a bit sticky in the summer. It claims to have whitening and wrinkle-improving functions, but you shouldn't expect too much from those claims in cosmetics. It's a booster product that hydrates the skin base, so it won't provide a significant effect on its own.
TipIt's better to apply it by patting with your hands rather than using a cotton pad. You can purchase it more affordably by taking advantage of events on the Aromatica website or discounts at Olive Young and Lohbs.

As expected, it has a rose scent. I'm sensitive, but there wasn't any particular irritation.
ConsHowever, I wasn't sure if the product would be as effective as I had hoped. Since it's an essence, I used it on my own, but it doesn't seem to be particularly calming, and even after using it for more than 2 weeks, I haven't seen any noticeable improvements in whitening or wrinkles...
TipFor those who like rose-based cosmetics, they can use them for a short time due to the fragrance. However, since you didn't see any effects when using it alone, I'd recommend mixing it with a lotion and applying it.

The fragrance is divisive, but I personally enjoy the rose scent.
ConsIt's unlikely to provide significant whitening or wrinkle-reducing effects. The absorption is a bit slow, but not uncomfortably so. I bought it during a buy-one-get-one-free promotion, and I think I would have felt it was a bit pricey if I hadn't.
TipIt's best to apply it right after cleansing. I keep it in the bathroom and use it there.

It absorbs just the right amount, leaving a moisturized feel. The quantity is generous, with a light, honey-like texture.
ConsI wouldn't recommend using this for moisturizing in the winter. I'm not too sure about its whitening or other effects besides moisturizing.
