But I found this product to be completely non-irritating and gentle. In fact, I noticed my face looking brighter just 3 days after using it morning and evening. The 30ml bottle lasts me about 2 months, using just 3 drops at a time. It has a serum-like, slightly viscous texture, and is meant to be applied right after cleansing, before toner. I would definitely repurchase this product. This review is being posted a month later, as I had to use a different phone due to a screen issue.
ConsIf I had to pick, the quantity is rather small compared to the prices of the retail products.
TipEvery morning and evening, after cleansing, I applied it first, and then used the other products. Despite its viscosity, it does not seem to interfere with the absorption of the other products, which I like!!

I've been applying it morning and evening for about 2 weeks! The formula is not too watery or too thick, it's a comfortable formula. It absorbs quickly and leaves a refreshing feel. I think I can recommend this to people with normal skin types.๐ฅฐ
ConsIt was difficult to feel my skin dramatically brightening.
TipWhen drying, it's a good idea to apply in two or three layered coats.

The fragrance is a subtle citrus that is not overpowering, which I found to be good. The product felt heavier than expected given the level of moisture it provides, but I found it to be better for application.
ConsIt is an essence, so the moisture content is abundant and good, but the feeling of protected skin barrier and nourishment is relatively less. I am applying another serum along with the essence. The two have slightly different characteristics, so the complementary use works well.

ConsWhen applied properly and absorbed, there is no such feeling, but it's a pity that the finishing touch is slightly sticky.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsVitamin C has shattered the prejudice that it is irritating: As it was the coldest time of the year in early February, I started using it when my face was already flushed. It was blotchy... ๐ฅน My skin was sensitive, so I had been avoiding other vitamin C products for a while. ๐ฅถ I had experienced a burning sensation or breakouts when using vitamin C products before, so I was hesitant, but it was very gentle!!! ๐ It's gentle for sensitive skin that is allergic to fragrances and other additives: The color is almost colorless and transparent, and the fragrance is very mild. A light soapy? scent, but refreshing. ๐งผ It absorbs completely and doesn't peel or sit on the surface: It has a slightly viscous and glossy texture, so it absorbs completely after a while (refer to the product image), and even when I apply a moisturizing cream or lotion on top, it sinks in smoothly. It doesn't clump or peel when layering other products, making it easy to layer. ๐งด It calms redness and evens out skin tone: While calming is not its main function, it unexpectedly evened out my skin tone very well. ๐ My skin looks brighter: Since my skin is already quite fair, the product didn't make me look whiter, but it made my skin look more radiant and even-toned. ๐
ConsRight after application, there is a slightly tacky and sticky feeling, and absorption is quite slow. ๐ I applied 4 drops using 1 pump of the dropper, and it took about 10 minutes for the product to be fully absorbed across my entire face. Even after absorption, the application is not entirely even, and there are some shiny spots in certain areas.โจ
TipEspecially when applying a moisturizer containing ceramides, it seems to be well-suited and keep the skin hydrated even in the winter.

The skin texture improves the next day.
ConsThe applicator's durability is weak, and it has been a short time since it was used, so it has separated and I'm using it like this haha... Also, the absorption power is a bit lacking for my skin...!
TipA small amount is good for use.

As I've reached my mid-30s, my skin is combination in the summer but dry in the winter. I've been experiencing dryness, redness around my nose, and flaky skin, but after using the Cha-eun-bak ampoule and then applying the Physiogel, the flaky skin has improved. This is the second time I'm using this ampoule, and it's lightweight, not greasy, and absorbs quickly. I didn't feel any clogged pores, and while it was a bit sticky at first, it became less sticky as it absorbed. I used this ampoule along with the Cha-eun-bak ampoule and the Physiogel, and my complexion seems a bit brighter. 2.12 additional content: A friend told me that my skin looks bright and smooth, and the only new product I've added to my routine is a vitamin C item.
ConsIn the drying season, it's not extremely moisturizing, so using it alone can be difficult, but it would be good to apply a cream on top.
TipThe severe dryness was alleviated by mixing the Cha-en-Pak ampoule and applying it, then following up with the application of the Physiogel cream, which left my skin feeling moisturized and pleasant.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsI used it from 1/27 to 2/10. Skin type: combination It has a bit of viscosity but spreads well. When I used the night care routine of serum + Nordic essence + moisturizer, it was quite nourishing and moisturizing, so my skin felt a bit overloaded the next morning. Switching to serum + Nordic essence / Nordic essence + moisturizer worked well. ๐ I was hoping my skin would brighten up due to the vitamin content, but I didn't notice a significant difference in 2 weeks, so I think I need to use it for a month to see the results. The scent is a typical refreshing citrus fragrance of vitamins. The scent is not unpleasant and feels natural, which I liked.
ConsThose who use multiple ampoules and serums should not use the first one. It ends up feeling sticky, and the skin has difficulty absorbing the products applied afterward.

Rapid absorption: The lightweight formula is quickly absorbed into the skin, leaving a refreshing, non-sticky finish. 2. Radiance: After using it consistently for 2 weeks, I noticed that my skin appeared more luminous and glowing, though I can't say for certain if it's just my imagination. 3. Natural ingredients: With cloudberry and vitamin C, it is said to be gentle on the skin and provide excellent antioxidant benefits. 4. Skin tone improvement: With continued use, I felt that my skin tone became more even and uniform. I truly felt that my complexion looked brighter. 5. Subtle fragrance: The pleasant, non-overpowering scent was enjoyable.
Consโ ๏ธ Disappointing aspects (downsides) 1. Lack of moisturizing power: During the dry winter season, using it alone was not sufficient for moisturizing, and additional moisturizing products were needed. 2. Variation based on skin type: As a person with sensitive skin, I experienced a slight stinging sensation when I first started using it due to the vitamin C ingredient. It was more of a tingling feeling than a burning sensation! 3. Price range: The price may feel a bit high compared to the product volume. ๐ข 4. Limited short-term effects: Immediate skin changes were not as noticeable, and consistent use was required. However, after using it diligently twice a day for 2 weeks, I could perceive a subtle brightening of my skin tone. This was the result of taking daily photos and closely observing the changes.
TipOverall, I'm satisfied with the natural glow and skin tone improvement, but in terms of cost-effectiveness, it's a bit disappointing!

Consโญ๏ธThe artificial orange fragrance was bothersome (I don't like fragranced products, so as soon as I opened it, the artificial orange scent spread and it was a bit disappointing when I applied it..but it was okay since the scent didn't linger when I applied other ampoules or lotions on top) โญ๏ธThe ingredients weren't that great, so I was a bit concerned when absorbing it into my skin โญ๏ธIt caused skin troubles (I'm not sure if it was because I used it with other products or because I applied something I don't normally use, but I started getting pimples and blemishes, so I ended up using it for only about a week before stopping) -This review was written as part of the Hwahae Trial Reviewers program-
TipThe ampoule has a texture that is not watery, so it's fine to squeeze it directly onto your face and apply it.
