When I first used it, my skin felt a bit uncomfortable for a few days.
ConsIt stings quite a bit. I would definitely caution sensitive skin types to be very careful with this product. The stinging sensation lasted for a while, and I'm not sure it's worth continuing to use.
TipThis product would be best suited for those with robust, resilient skin.

ConsSince this is an AHA product, it needs to be applied only at night, and some people may experience a slight stinging sensation immediately after application.

Given the price range, I received several samples and have been using them, wondering what this is all about! It comes in a single-use package, so you can carry it around and use it on the go!! It's a yellow serum that applies smoothly and tingles when applied!! Especially for those with sensitive skin, the tingling sensation may be more pronounced!! After applying it all, the tingling sensation fades over time, and if you then apply a rapid recovery cream or a moisturizing cream, your skin will look smoother and more supple the next day!
ConsWhile it's meant for home care use, since it's quite effective, I tend to apply more of it to the T-zone and cheek areas!! It may not be suitable for those with extremely sensitive skin~~ But as you gradually get used to it, your skin will improve!
TipUsing it once or twice a week is ideal, and you can do it more frequently if your skin adjusts, but it's not recommended for sensitive skin. It's a product more suitable for those with thicker skin, but the fact that your skin looks better the next day after applying moisturizer is a plus!! Even for normal skin, there's usually no dryness, except during the colder seasons^^

So I decided to try the Honey Halo cream, and I'm really glad I did. 1) The Pharmacy line design looks quite premium, and the bottle is light for its size. It's a pump type, so it's easy to use, but if you press too hard, the product sprays out further than your hand. => The pump on this one seems to work really well though - the product gets used up cleanly and thoroughly. 2) It has great spreadability. When you apply it, it feels soft and supple~ It absorbs quickly, so even oily skin types can use it without worry. There's no sticky or greasy feeling, so it works for dry skin too! 3) There's a slight tingling sensation when you first apply it, but it doesn't last long for me. It goes away after applying the serum and cream. Using it 2-3 times a week, the tingling wasn't really an issue. 4) While there was some tingling, I didn't have any worries about breakouts or trouble. 5) When I wake up, my skin feels a bit plump and glowy, so the radiance effect of this product seems to be working. 6) It lasts longer than I expected. 7) Using this with the Honey Halo in the changing seasons or winter, my skin looks so much better in the mornings!๐
ConsThe product is good, but: 1) The scent is something I've never encountered in a skincare product before. It's not terrible, but it's quite strong. The smell does dissipate after applying, but it may be an issue for those sensitive to fragrance. 2) There is a slight tingling sensation upon application. Those with very sensitive skin may want to consider this. 3) The price is quite steep! So expensive, that's why I'm taking off a star๐
TipUsing the Honey Halo cream together with this product is amazing!

The good thing was that the cream felt very oily, but it melted into my skin without feeling stuffy or sticky, which I really liked! And the ginseng-like herbal scent was strong, but I didn't mind it.
ConsAt first, it seemed like my acne was disappearing after using it, but then small bumps started appearing on my forehead, and my skin around my mouth became irritated, which was really tough for me.
TipI recommend trying out the tester and thoroughly reading reviews before purchasing. The exfoliating ingredients seemed to work well for me, but since it's a cream, it was difficult for me.

It was a satisfactory product for me, who loves chemical exfoliation! When applied, there is a slight tingling feeling, and the next morning, I can definitely feel that the remaining dead skin cells are well-groomed. ใ ใ ใ ใ It gives me comfort when my face feels rough. Although there is not completely no irritation, if you like AHA and BHA, you can use it daily, and the best part is that you can feel the effects the next day โฅ๏ธ
ConsThere is a slightly burning sensation when applied, so if you have very sensitive skin, it's best to do a patch test!
TipRemove excess moisture and apply a thin layer all over the face with one pump!!

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsAfter using the sample, my skin was so radiant and great the next day that I impulsively bought it. It seems like a product that can be used comfortably when your skin is already in a healthy state. To see good effects, you must apply it and get enough deep sleep. If you just slap it on and sleep for a few hours, your skin will only get red and sensitive. Avoid using it during the day. It can actually cause a peeling bomb and increased sensitivity on your face. (It seems that instead of regenerating, it just melts the skin, causing more peeling as a side effect) Anyway, if used properly, it gently melts away the dead skin and conditions your skin for a dramatic skin texture. You'll need to be mindful of maintaining your skin condition, just like with retinol.
ConsFor skin that develops acute dermatitis after makeup, you can only apply it the next day or so. If you apply it when your skin is sensitive and has inflammation or wounds, it will sting like putting on calamine lotion and may cause your skin to flare up ใ ใ ใ ใ + This product doesn't have the signature sweet fragrance of the same line's Honey Halo or Honey Potion. It just focuses on conditioning, with a slightly sour scent from the acidic ingredients, so the fragrance is not great.
TipYou should buy and use it, but for those who find it too stinging, don't apply it right after toner. Instead, try applying toner -> moisturizer, and then use this as the last step, which may help a bit.

ConsIt seems quite irritating, so I see a lot of reviews saying it doesn't work for them. Can't use it daily. The price is too high ใ ใ
TipI don't know what might happen if I apply it around the eyes.. The eye area definitely requires an eye cream.

I received it as a sample when purchasing a cleansing product, and I'm still not sure about it.
ConsIt's too irritating.. So I came to check the reviews to see if others had the same experience. It seems I'm not the only one. It feels like I've put chili powder on my face..

ConsDue to the AHA ingredients, it can be slightly irritating if used after a long break.
