AnuaNiacinamide 10% + TXA 3% SerumI bought this to take care of my pores. It feels slightly sticky when applied to the skin. Maybe it just didn't suit my skin, but it had no effect on my pores at all, and I feel like my skin started breaking out more often, getting red right after applying it and developing pimples. Be careful to keep it out of sunlight after opening, or it will change color 😿

KisoCareBrongem Serum GL No.066With a high concentration of 60,000 ppm glutathione, plus niacinamide, panthenol, five types of ceramides, and even a vitamin C derivative, you can get it for around 2,000 yen (just looking at the description, doesn't it sound pretty amazing?!?!) But......the smell is unbelievably awful!!!! Of course I stink after using it, but even my family points it out when they use the sink after me. Even if I don't tell them I used it, when they get close to my face they ask, "Did you use it today?" I want to use it because I like how it makes my skin look clearer and feel smoother, but I can't stand the smell. I've used all kinds of products containing glutathione, but this is one of the worst-smelling ones. I'd give the feel of it about ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, but factoring in the smell, this is my rating 💦

manyoGalac Niacin 3.0 EssenceIt has a water-like texture with no thickness or scent. I'm about halfway through my first bottle, and I like how quickly it absorbs, so I've already bought a second one. I didn't notice any immediate effects, but I feel like my skin has been doing better than before. The texture is light, so I think it could work in the morning too!

FILL THE FRAMEAzelaic Acid 15% + Tranexamic Acid 4% Serum 30mLSince it has 15% azelaic acid, I thought it might be a little irritating, but it feels easier to use than I expected! It's a thick serum, but once blended into the skin, the stickiness isn't too noticeable, and it was easy to layer too! ◎

Nano RecipeTranexamic Acid 10%I bought this because it was getting a lot of buzz on Qoo10, and I thought it was great that I could add the ingredient to the toners and creams I already own! I bought it to care for dark spots, but I didn't see any noticeable improvement in them. It's easy to use, so I think it might be good for prevention!

MediCubeKojic Acid Turmeric Niacinamide SerumI was using it hoping it would help with dullness. The serum is yellow, so it's hard to use in the morning. When I apply it at night and wipe it off with a toner pad in the morning, the pad turns yellow—that's how strong the color is. I don't like that it leaves color behind, so I probably won't repurchase.

COSRXAdvanced The Vitamin C 23 SerumThis is my third bottle. Since they reformulated it, that distinctive canned tuna smell is gone👏 It feels pretty oily and sticky, so I only use it at night. It tingles every time. I feel like my skin looks brighter, but I can't really tell if it's doing anything for my pores. I keep repurchasing it because it's one of the more affordable high-concentration vitamin C serums.

COSRXThe Alpha-Arbutin 2 Discoloration Care SerumI use this around my period or when I get acne, and since I haven't gotten any noticeable acne scars since I started using it, I wonder if that's thanks to this? It seems to work on dark spots, freckles, and skin clarity too, but I don't use it every day, so I can't really say. Also, I use it specifically for its soothing effect, so it's not particularly moisturizing or anything. I think it's good to apply it to my skin as a precaution when my skin is acting up, then get moisture from other skincare products. I'll keep counting on its soothing effect!

COSRXThe Vitamin C 13 SerumI had been using COSRX C23 for a while, but this one is cheaper, so I thought I'd give C13 a try and see if it worked... and bought this one for now. It didn't feel very oily, and the stickiness wasn't enough to bother me. There were some days when it tingled a little, but the irritation was never so strong that I couldn't use it. The canned tuna smell hasn't bothered me since the reformulation either! It was lightweight and easy to use in the morning too. There were times when my dullness seemed to fade and my skin looked brighter, but I didn't notice anything like my pores getting smaller or less noticeable.

OrbisAdvanced Brightening SerumThis is a brightening serum I used and loved for about 5 years! I started using it when I began noticing dark spots, and although I sometimes strayed and tried other brightening serums along the way, I ended up using this one for a long time I used it for about 5 years, from age 33 to 38, and really felt like it kept my dark spots from getting worse. Rather than caring for existing dark spots, I used it because I felt like “I don’t want to get any more dark spots and want to keep preventing them.” It’s 4,950 yen for 36 mL. In my case, one bottle lasted about 1.5 months, so it came to around 3,300 yen per month. The relatively affordable price for a brightening serum was another reason I was able to keep using it for so long. I tried other products here and there, but this was ultimately a favorite that I kept using for about 5 years. I recommend it for preventive care if you don’t have many dark spots yet, or for anyone who wants to keep up with brightening care while prioritizing value for money! I wanted to take my skincare more seriously, so I doubled my budget and now use a different brightening serum.

COSRXThe Alpha-Arbutin 2 Discoloration Care Serum
I tried it because it seemed like it might help with melasma and skin redness, but after one bottle, I couldn't really tell if it had any effect. In a good way, it barely feels like anything on the skin, so I think it works fine slotted into a routine like toner → this → other serums. It does feel a little sticky, but not enough to really bother me. It didn't irritate my skin, so it's not that it doesn't agree with me, but I guess I won't know unless I keep using it a little longer... I'd seen a lot of promos that made it seem like it would work quickly, so it was a bit of a letdown. There are other products I'm interested in too, so I'm not considering repurchasing for now.

AstaliftWhite Jelly AquarystaI feel like Astalift White Jelly makes my skin look plumper! When I apply this right after washing my face, I feel like the toner I use afterward absorbs better too! Whenever I use Astalift, my skin behaves so much better.

KoséSekkisei Brightening Essence LotionIt feels so nice on my skin when I chill it in the fridge before using it! I liked how it felt better with a cotton pad than with my hands🎶 Since it's so lightweight, it might not be moisturizing enough for people with dry skin. When it's not enough, I layer a different toner on top!

NumbuzinNo.3 Skin Softening SerumNumbuzin No.3 Skin Softening Serum I use it as my morning and evening serum. It has a viscous texture, but it doesn't feel too heavy and has a light feel that's easy to blend into the skin. Even though it's viscous, it feels thoroughly moisturizing, while still being easy to use in my morning skincare routine, and I liked that it didn't feel too heavy even before makeup. At night, I've been incorprating it before emulsion and cream, and I feel like it smooths out my skin texture. I think it's a convenient serum that's easy to incorporate both morning and night.

HAKUMelanofocus EVI've been using it for a long time because I want to lighten my skin. It feels cool when I apply it to my skin. It doesn't fade dark spots or anything, so I apply it every night to prevent them ◎ I can't really say it definitely works! so if I find a good alternative, I might switch to that.

MediCubeTXA Niacinamide 15% SerumI used this to brighten my skin tone and help with dark spots and dullness. Honestly, I didn't really notice much of a visible effect. The texture is light and not too sticky, but sometimes it did feel a little tacky. It doesn't feel all that moisturizing. Rather than giving dramatic results, I think it's the kind of product you use long-term and hope to see gradual changes with.

ObagiNeo C25 Vitamin C SerumThis is a high-concentration vitamin C serum. I've kept using it to prevent dark spots. I've tried a lot of vitamin C serums, but I like the quality of this one and how well it absorbs. It has an oily texture, but it's also nice how it sinks right in. I can definitely tell that it's effective at preventing dark spots. As for making them lighter... it doesn't seem like it has... But I think it does a really good job of preventing dark spots while I'm using it. It's the best product for dark spot prevention. Honestly, I also think the cheaper, more affordable Melano CC might be good enough. I think consistency is the most important thing, and Obagi 25 is a little too expensive for me, so I'm not sure if I can keep using it... If I could afford to keep using it, Obagi 25 would be the best, though. Also, this isn't limited to Obagi 25 and applies to vitamin C products in general, but the higher the concentration, the more residue it leaves on your skin if you don't properly wash it off. It's clear when you apply it, but after a few hours it oxidizes and turns a yellowish to pinkish color. Quite a bit of that color stays behind if you don't remove it thoroughly with cleanser... Since Obagi 25 has a high concentration, the color after applying it bothered me quite a bit. It also stains the collars of white clothes, so I thought that's something you need to be careful about... As far as effectiveness goes, it's an incredibly excellent and reliable serum, but it seems like it needs to be handled with care.

AstaliftWhite Jelly Aquarysta
Recommended when you're concerned about dullness or acne. After using it consistently, I feel like I've been getting fewer little bumps. When I stopped using it for a while, my skin started looking dull, so now I keep using it. It feels like it absorbs well into my skin, and while it's not that moisturizing on its own, using this together with toner leaves my skin more moisturized than usual. It's slightly orange in color, so I use it at night rather than in the morning. It doesn't noticeably tint my skin, but when I used a sheet mask afterward, some of the color transferred onto the sheet, so I just kind of avoid using it in the morning.

CliniqueEven Better Active Booster SerumA brightening booster serum. Since it's medicated, I think it's easy to use even for people like me who are prone to acne. I have oily skin, and overly rich textures give me comedones, so I prefer something this lightweight. And a lot of lightweight products tend to have weaker ingredients, but this one actually does its job as a serum, so it's one of my favorites. As I kept using it, I could tell that my skin looked clearer in the morning. It's a little too expensive for me to buy every month, so 4 stars. But if I were rich, I'd want to keep several backups on hand.
