This plant-based firming serum absorbs quickly and suits combination skin, though its herbal fragrance divides users and premium pricing limits value for modest results.

The moment this touches your skin, it clings beautifully and gives you that wonderful lifted, bouncy feeling. The subtle, luxurious scent makes you feel amazing every time you apply it, and you can actually see your skin texture becoming smoother and more refined. The lightweight formula is perfect for using morning and night without any heaviness—it's honestly such a breeze to incorporate into your routine. Since this comes in a pump bottle, the opening can get a bit crusty over time, but if you wipe it down regularly, you'll keep everything clean and tidy. Apply it all over your face, then use the warmth of your palms to gently press it in for better absorption. Try massaging upward along your jawline in sweeping motions—this technique feels way more effective for keeping your skin firm and bouncy. - mi************Dry SkinSensitive SkinDark CirclesInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityRecommendedFeb 15, 2025 (UTC+0)
Amazing texture that feels wonderful on the skin While it's good, it's not quite nourishing enough for 40-year-old skin. I feel like I need more hydration I would recommend this for 30-35 year old skin - da*******Dehydrated SkinAcneSebum/BlackheadsInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresRecommendedJun 27, 2024 (UTC+0)
It absorbs lightly without any stickiness. What's most impressive is that when applied, it feels like it's filling from deep within rather than just moisturizing the surface, making even smile lines seem less noticeable. Plus, it's amazing how makeup doesn't pill over it after applying serum. I'm definitely looking to repurchase! The scent isn't particularly pleasant. And the quantity isn't very generous. But these are minor drawbacks, nothing too disappointing. - jj******Combination SkinSensitive SkinAcneRecommendedOct 9, 2022 (UTC+0)Reviewed by The Hwahae Testers

common.HWAHAE_TRIAL_REVIEWERS_DESCRIPTION* Hydration - I didn't expect much since it claimed to have lifting properties, but I was surprised by how well it moisturizes. It absorbs extremely quickly, and when I wake up the next morning after applying it, I can immediately tell how good the hydration is! * Application - It absorbs well even with a small amount. * Lifting - Rather than noticeable effects, you feel a tightening sensation after some time has passed since application. * Scent - It's not too strong, not unscented, but just right with a leafy fragrance that likely won't polarize opinions. Those expecting visible lifting effects in a short time might need to lower their expectations - su*******Combination SkinSensitive SkinAcneSebum/BlackheadsDark CirclesWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresRecommendedSep 22, 2022 (UTC+0)Reviewed by The Hwahae Testers

common.HWAHAE_TRIAL_REVIEWERS_DESCRIPTIONAs someone with sensitive combination skin - oily T-zone and dry cheeks - this product is gentle and moisturizing without causing irritation or blemishes. The serum absorbs exceptionally well, true to its nature. I love the lightweight texture that doesn't feel heavy or suffocating, and it applies smoothly for a fresh feel. I've trusted Caudalie since it's been a renowned brand available even in pharmacies since I was young. The scent isn't off-putting, and after consistent use, I'm considering repurchasing. I'm thrilled to discover great products through The Hwahae Testers. I used to have so many cosmetics that didn't suit me and ended up being discarded. This product is perfect for sensitive skin like mine and great for adding to your routine during dry seasonal changes. I can't really find anything negative to say. Perhaps just the ingredients? That's twenty characters. If it feels too light, apply an additional moisturizer on top.

common.HWAHAE_TRIAL_REVIEWERS_DESCRIPTIONThe texture is like a perfect blend of cream and essence. ▷ Hydration + Absorption ●●●●◐ It applies so moisturizing that even in fall or winter, it doesn't feel dry at all. After using it as a base, you can apply makeup right away without any pilling or breakdown. ▷ Scent ●●●◐○ It has that unique Caudalie fragrance, which isn't overpowering. Personally, I love it, but some might not be fans. ▷ Absorption ●●●●● It doesn't sit on the surface but immediately sinks in, leaving your skin feeling fresh the next morning. A little goes a long way. After using it for a week, thanks to the patented resveratrol, hyaluronic acid, and collagen ingredients, my skin texture improved and somehow felt increasingly supple. After toning, I apply a thin layer of this, followed by my usual cream or emulsion. The result? A moisturized and refreshed feeling! While I was slightly disappointed that the ingredients aren't 100% clean, I was relieved to see it's free of parabens, phenoxyethanol, mineral oil, and PEG ingredients. - da******Normal SkinSebum/BlackheadsInner DrynessEnlarged PoresRecommendedSep 21, 2022 (UTC+0)Reviewed by The Hwahae Testers

common.HWAHAE_TRIAL_REVIEWERS_DESCRIPTIONThe Hwahae Testers Review: ✔️ Late 20s, dry skin 👍 Texture: Despite being a functional serum, it has a light texture that's perfect for spring, summer, and fall use. No stickiness when applied before work or on the neck. 👍 Packaging: I was pleasantly surprised by the beautiful paper packaging upon receipt. The container itself is also quite attractive, which lifted my spirits! I appreciated the hygienic pump dispenser as well. 👍 Gentle: No blemishes or irritation occurred. 👎 Scent: There's a subtle fragrance reminiscent of perfume. As someone who usually uses unscented or lightly citrus-scented skincare products, I found the scent unappealing. However, it does dissipate quickly. 👎 Hydration: While it's too soon to verify the firming effects, as a dry skin type, I definitely felt the hydration was lacking. - by*********Combination SkinRecommendedSep 21, 2022 (UTC+0)Reviewed by The Hwahae Testers

common.HWAHAE_TRIAL_REVIEWERS_DESCRIPTIONI discovered Caudalie through The Hwahae Testers, and I must say, it's quite impressive if you look past the price! The packaging is sleek, and for a product with lifting properties, it's surprisingly refreshing while still offering great hydration. Although I had to reapply a few times due to the changing seasons, it's not bad considering it's a serum. I love how it goes from moisturizing to silky smooth, and with a scent to match, it feels like a skincare version of a powder compact overall! The fragrance is somewhat reminiscent of a powder compact... While it's not particularly unpleasant, I found the lingering scent a bit disappointing. It can be used alone in summer, but for other seasons, those with combination skin that tends to get oily should definitely follow up with a skin emulsion, essence, and cream. - sc****Dry SkinSensitive SkinAcneSebum/BlackheadsWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresRecommendedSep 21, 2022 (UTC+0)Reviewed by The Hwahae Testers

common.HWAHAE_TRIAL_REVIEWERS_DESCRIPTIONThe texture is light and fluid, like a thin emulsion. It absorbs incredibly fast without sitting on top of the skin, giving a feeling of complete absorption into the skin. The container is all-in-one, so there's no worry about losing the cap. What I loved most was that you can twist the top part to lock/unlock it! This means you don't have to worry about leaks even when you put it in your makeup pouch! Since I've only used it for less than two weeks, I'm not sure about the definite effects, but it seems the results aren't as noticeable as you'd expect for the price. It feels slightly lacking in hydration if you finish with just this product, so I apply an additional hydrating gel to complete my routine. The scent is quite unique, so it might be a love-it-or-hate-it situation for some people. - py*********Combination SkinSensitive SkinAcneEnlarged PoresRednessRecommendedSep 20, 2022 (UTC+0)Reviewed by The Hwahae Testers
