Light, absorbs quickly, leaves no stickiness. I especially liked how it soothes the skin - redness noticeably decreases just a few minutes after application. The formula with niacinamide and centella will be excellent for sensitive and acne-prone skin. With regular use, the skin looks more even, the dullness goes away. It also behaves well under makeup - it doesn't crease. An excellent choice for daily care at any time of the year.
ConsAlthough the AXIS-Y serum generally left a pleasant impression, I was somewhat concerned that when applied to irritated skin in some areas, a slight tingling sensation appeared. It is also worth considering that the moisturizing effect is not immediate but gradually manifests with regular use. For very dry skin, this serum alone may not be sufficient.
TipThe best way to apply the serum is right after the toner on slightly damp skin - this way it absorbs faster and better retains moisture. In the morning, I use it under an SPF cream, and in the evening - paired with a moisturizing cream. It combines excellently with other products without conflict.

This product is perfect for that! It provides just the right amount of moisture for my combination skin, so I don't need to layer it multiple times. It absorbs quickly and doesn't feel sticky. Even though it's a whitening product, I didn't feel any irritation at all. After just 3 days, I could visibly see an improvement in my acne scars, so I've been using it consistently!
ConsThere were no disappointing aspects. Repurchase intention 100000%
TipIf you want to see results quickly, I recommend using Hwahae products together with Hwahae Trial Reviewers products.

This is the first time I've used a product for blemish care, and I was surprised to see the acne scars I had a few days ago gradually fading. There is a cooling effect, so it feels very refreshing when applied and the heat sensation on my skin subsides. I can feel the moisture being replenished from the inside out, and when I apply it the night before, my base makeup goes on well the next day.
ConsDue to my sensitive skin, the pack was a bit irritating to use 😢 Once my skin recovers, I'll try using the pack again. For those without sensitivity, the pack should work well!

Pump packaging makes it easy to control the amount. 💟 Comparison to similar products: Applies much lighter than other brands' blemish serums! I used to buy scar treatment ointments from the pharmacy and apply them before makeup, but it was difficult as the ointment would get displaced. With this serum's lightweight and easy-to-spread texture, it's perfect for all-over blemish care. 💟 Effects: First of all, there were no side effects like increased breakouts. The dark, heavily pigmented blemishes gradually faded to a lighter pink over about 2 weeks. I think they'll fully disappear with another 2 weeks of use. The photos (after use) show the reddish blemishes that were originally dark spots.
ConsThe brightening/soothing effects: Unless it's a product that shows immediate results, it's not easy to see the effects after using it for 2 weeks.🩶 The soothing was also not easy, as my skin condition worsened due to changes in my sleep pattern and increased breakouts. The whitening effect was also not immediately noticeable. In fact, when using spot care products, deep-seated skin troubles would surface, causing me pain and difficulty, without knowing the reason.🥹 However, this serum did not cause any surface-level troubles, so I felt it was a gentle spot care product. As a result, the effects appeared gradually rather than immediately!
TipTo further enhance the whitening and blemish-reducing effects, I diligently applied sunscreen and focused more on using it during my nighttime skincare routine rather than my morning routine (for UV protection). I also used beauty devices, and it seemed to improve absorption. Since there were no side effects when using the beauty devices, I would recommend trying them out!

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsAs someone with sensitive, acne-prone skin, I've tried numerous whitening and blemish care products, but this one is great! First of all, as a sensitive skin type, I didn't experience any stinging or rashes. My skin is on the drier side, so I had to apply a toner and cream before and after using this product, but considering the serum's role, its lightweight and absorbent formula was actually beneficial. And the most important aspect, the whitening function, also impressed me. Given my sensitivity, if the whitening effect was too strong, it would likely be irritating. However, this product is not overly stimulating yet provides a gradual, gentle whitening effect, so I'm eager to continue using it consistently!
ConsThere was nothing in particular! I liked the fragrance and the formulation, and there were no major disappointments.

Applying products containing stearic acid or highly nourishing cosmetics immediately causes pimple outbreaks, but using products specialized for dry or oily skin types causes peeling. ❤️ Previously Well-Used Essences, Serums (Repurchased Items) ❤️ 1️⃣ Toridoll Deep-In Serum 2️⃣ Aromatica Rose Absolute First Serum 3️⃣ It's Skin Power 10 Formula LI Effector Essence Licorice 4️⃣ Estée Lauder Brown Bottle 5️⃣ Koi Solid Volume Ampoule 6️⃣ Depoende Signature Origin 100 ❤️ Honest Review ❤️ I used this product both morning and evening for about ten days starting March 6th. The formula was a very clear-feeling serum that absorbed incredibly fast! What was really amazing was that despite being a brightening product, there was absolutely no irritation. Unlike famous hyaluronic acid products, it had hydration but zero irritation! Previous brightening products I've used, even famous non-irritating ones, would still cause a burning sensation around my cheeks, but this one did not. It provides enough hydration to quench dryness, but not the dewy, saturated kind. There's no tightness, though those with extremely dry skin may find it a bit lacking. The fast absorption and non-slippery texture make it a good base for building a skincare routine, so it's worth trying if you're looking for an effective yet non-irritating brightening product.
ConsIt seems a bit premature to say it's disappointing, as we'll need to observe it for a longer period. I haven't yet been able to feel the actual effects of the brightening, but since it's not very irritating and easy to apply, I'm going to try using it consistently! As it's been less than a year since giving birth, my skin has become quite damaged and my complexion has darkened, so I think if I use it a bit more, the results might start showing soon!
TipI recommend this product to those who want to start with a gentle brightening product. It can be used day and night without much concern about compatibility with other products. It's a very easy and gentle product!

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsFirst, my skin type is dry + sensitive. Normally, if I use the wrong product even a little, my face turns red right away and breaks out into trouble... But this product, even when I used it in a state where my skin was already irritated, had a cooling effect, and when I applied it and went to sleep, the redness had subsided in the morning?? Since it helps control the redness, I think it would be good to use it before makeup or at night. In summary: 1. It was very gentle. Even though my skin is on the dry side, no trouble popped up after using it. Instead, it had a soothing effect. 2. Packaging It's a tube type, so I could use it cleanly. 3. Spreadability, texture It's a thin type and absorbed quickly. 4. Fragrance It's close to fragrance-free, so there was no aversion.
ConsThe product felt a bit dry over time, but it's a good fit. I wouldn't recommend it for those with very dry skin, but it should work well for other skin types.
TipIt seems like it would be good to apply it when the redness is severe.
