“Two years now using only this serum. I'm 34 and people think I'm in my twenties.”

“If you're looking for a serum for dehydrated oily skin, this is it. My skin is really reactive and flushes easily, so I choose serums carefully. Layered after toner, it's bouncy and my skin feels as thoroughly hydrated as after a clinic visit.”

“The ultimate gem for dry-skin nomads🤍 I'm a bride-to-be preparing for my wedding! Lately I have studio shoots, outdoor snap shoots, and all kinds of photo sessions, so I've been worrying more and more about my skin~ Dry skin was my biggest concern among them, but thanks to this hydrating serum with its moist yet bouncy finish, my skin confidence is up these days! I feel like I'll be able to get photos I'm happy with, so I keep reaching for it lately👍 Highly recommend for anyone looking for a hydrating serum for dry skin!”

“Inner-dryness ampoule serum, the Baegayul Moisture Balancing Serum The more concentrated the moisture, nutrients, and oil in a cosmetic, the higher its density and viscosity. And high viscosity obviously means stickiness! Then it doesn't absorb deep into the skin; it sits on top or pills off like dead skin. The Baegayul Moisture Balancing Serum doesn't run down like water, and it doesn't get too heavy or sticky either, it was a texture with just the right balance. The more I use it, the more I like it. It's earned its place as money well spent~~”

“If you're oily but dehydrated, just get it, no questions asked I have typical oily but dehydrated skin They say this serum is relatively light, and lately I'd been looking for something that fills the inside with moisture without leaving grease on the surface, and I found this>_< After cleansing I layer it about 2-3 times, then finish with cream, and it feels like it fills me up from within! Used together with the cream, they're a match made in heaven Once I empty this bottle, I'll be back to buy more!”

“A serum full of moisture If you buy it on sale, it's the best serum for both value and satisfaction!!! It's not one of those serums where the moisture evaporates a little while after applying, it feels like it fills the skin deep down-! I switched all my basic skincare to Baegayul this time and I'm so satisfied Highly recommend for dry skin / oily but dehydrated skin”

“I recommend the Baegayul serum For anyone struggling with inner dryness, this is a balancing serum I just have to recommend I really love serums that come with a dropper because you can dispense and apply them neatly I'm satisfied, and my inner dryness concerns were solved right away!!”
