It brightens your skin and has a fun, jelly-like texture that's fascinating to apply. If you're looking to achieve a brighter complexion, I highly recommend this! There's nothing to complain about, honestly! Well, maybe the price is a bit on the higher side? But apart from that, everything about it is great. I absolutely love it! This product seems to be a brightening moisturizer or face mask that offers an enjoyable application experience. It effectively evens skin tone and provides a brightening effect. While the user finds it excellent overall, they do mention that the price might be slightly higher than expected. However, they still feel the quality justifies the cost. - hm******Combination SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinAtopic SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsInner DrynessDead Skin CellsRecommendedJul 5, 2025
I bought this product out of curiosity since it was available at Olive Young. Looking at the ingredient list, I was impressed by how good the ingredients are! After applying it, I didn't experience any blemishes or irritation. I have extremely dry skin, so I need to feel a certain level of richness, and this serum was just perfect in that regard! It's a heavier serum that really satisfied my skin's needs. Of course, this alone didn't provide complete hydration - I had to apply an even richer, thicker cream afterwards for full moisturizing effects. I remember waking up with noticeably smoother skin after generously applying this product before bed. It felt like my skin texture had been refined. That's why I was really satisfied with it. The scent is quite peculiar... It's hard to describe, but it has a somewhat astringent smell. It's like a squeaky clean scent. It's really unique! I think this might not suit those with oily skin types. It's definitely heavier than your average serum. - so********Dry SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsRednessRecommendedJul 4, 2025
For busy folks, here's the quick take! While the amount is small and the price is a bit steep, there is a slight brightening effect. Even though I have dry skin, it can feel a bit rich, so I use it more as an overnight mask rather than in my regular skincare routine. ❤️Brightening effect As a cool-toned serum, it should have a brightening effect, right? You can see some immediate results even without consistent use. It's subtle, but you can notice your complexion becoming about one shade lighter. ❤️Hydration I have dry skin and prefer moisturizing, rich textures. When I apply just a little before makeup and let it absorb fully, my makeup doesn't pill and my skin looks great. Doesn't absorb well When I use it as a thin overnight mask, my hair sticks to it and it's a mess. Feels rich It's fine for my dry skin, but those with oily skin should definitely control the amount they use. Value for money... The amount is surprisingly small. If used as a mask, it might last about a month. Hygiene concerns Given the container design, I'm a bit worried about hygiene. If you really want to see a noticeable brightening effect, I recommend applying it generously at night with a mask brush. When I use it as an overnight mask this way, I notice my face looks a bit brighter the next morning. - db*********Combination SkinSensitive SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsEnlarged PoresRecommendedJul 3, 2025
With consistent use, you can feel your complexion becoming more radiant, and it provides excellent hydration. I'm extremely satisfied and thoroughly enjoying this product! The downside is that the price is a bit steep, and it absorbs somewhat heavily on the skin. - hs******Dehydrated SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsDark CirclesInner DrynessEnlarged PoresRednessJul 2, 2025
It's actually an incredibly bouncy gel texture! I apply it using a silicone brush rather than my hands. After application, my face has an amazing dewy glow. Sometimes gel products can sting my skin, but I didn't experience any irritation with this one. I had high hopes for this product since I've been using Arencia's cleansing bar with good results. However, I'm not sure if it absorbs as well as I expected. It might not suit my skin type because while it does give a glow, it's more of an oily sheen, especially around my nose area. It feels different from hydration - more like excess oil. There's a noticeable residue left on my face. I can't really see any significant benefits. Considering the price for the amount you get, I won't be repurchasing this product. The reviewer compares their experience with two different products from the same brand, highlighting the importance of finding products that work well with individual skin types. They emphasize the difference between a healthy glow and excess oiliness, which is a common concern for many skincare users. - ki**********Oily SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinSebum/BlackheadsRednessRecommendedJul 2, 2025
This product is absolutely amazing! With consistent daily use, it really brightens your complexion and leaves your skin feeling hydrated without any tightness after application. I've already gone through more than 5 bottles - that's how much I love it! Although it comes with a lid, you need to apply it with your fingers, so you'll have to be a bit more mindful about hygiene. If you store it in the refrigerator, it helps cool down your face and provides even more hydration when applied. - dp*******Dry SkinSensitive SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsInner DrynessRecommendedJul 1, 2025
I first tried a mini sample from Olive Young, then bought the full-size product. The next day after using it, my skin texture is genuinely amazing. It's marketed as a cool-tone serum, but honestly, I can't say I notice any brightening... However, my skin becomes incredibly soft... It's an extremely hydrating serum with quite a rich feel. Even though I have very dry skin, a small amount is enough. If you have oily skin, you could probably use this instead of a moisturizer. Despite being labeled as a cool-tone serum, I saw no effect on my complexion. It's quite pricey... The dropper application is inconvenient... But I love it so much I'll likely repurchase... - sp********Dry SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsRecommendedJun 26, 2025
This serum has a gel-cream texture that feels great. You can use it as the first step after cleansing or after your toner in your serum step. It absorbs well into the skin, and when you layer a cream or a richer essence on top, it creates this amazing skin-hugging effect that I really love. These days, there's an upgraded version nicknamed the "cool-tone serum," which lives up to its name by improving skin texture and brightening. I first discovered it through crowdfunding, but now it's conveniently available at places like Olive Young, which is fantastic. It seems like they keep releasing similar serums with increasingly complex names, discontinuing old ones and introducing new ones. The changes are subtle, and it's hard to tell if they're improvements or not. When choosing a serum, it's important to consider your skin type and concerns. This particular serum seems to work well for those looking for hydration and brightening effects. If you have combination dehydrated skin or are prone to blemishes, you might find this serum helpful. Remember to patch test new products, especially if you have super sensitive skin, to avoid any potential irritation or allergic reactions. - ch***********Dry SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsDark CirclesEnlarged PoresRecommendedJun 26, 2025
It felt amazing when I applied it, and when I woke up the next morning, my skin was incredibly bright and clear! None! I've been using it consistently lately, and people thought I was Caucasian! I want to keep using it, even though it's a bit pricey... This product seems to have a powerful brightening effect, giving the skin a radiant complexion. The user is very satisfied with the results, noting a significant improvement in their skin tone. They're eager to continue using it despite the higher price point, which suggests the product's effectiveness outweighs its cost in their opinion. - zy********Dehydrated SkinAcne SkinDark CirclesInner DrynessJun 26, 2025
It's a serum you can apply without any fuss. While it's decent enough to use, it's not quite worth repurchasing given its price point. The product feels rather rich on the skin, and considering the price, the quantity isn't particularly generous. To be honest, I have no intention of buying it again. I wouldn't recommend it.
