I use it as a booster. I apply one drop after washing my face and applying mist lotion. After that, I follow up with my usual skincare routine, but the other day I forgot to apply this, and the next morning, my face didn't feel as smooth when I washed it. I've tried using it as a replacement for lotion or cream, and although it did moisturize my skin, I wasn't particularly impressed, so this method seems to suit me. As for the whitening effect, I've been using it for over a year now, and my dark spots have been gradually fading. I also use a stick-type whitening serum, so that may be having an effect, though. I haven't seen any new dark spots appear, so I think it's effective.
I've used both the original and this one, and honestly, there's no difference in the feel. I bought this one again, thinking it would be a better deal since it contains oil-based vitamin C, but I realized the purity of the squalane isn't the same. The original is "high-quality," meaning it's 99.99% pure squalane, which is produced multiple times. This one is different. I contacted the brand for more details, and had to wait a week for confirmation, but the only answer they gave was, "We carefully select it." It can't be helped. I guess it's a trade secret. If you're particular about purity, I recommend the original, but if you don't care about purity and want to kill two birds with one stone, this one is a good choice. I think I'll go with the original next time. ---By the way, there used to be a leakage issue, but it seems to have been fixed, and it no longer exists, which is a good thing.
I think it's a good product.
I use this oil as a booster and love how it absorbs the moisture from the sheet mask I use afterwards. I'm not sure about the whitening effect yet, but I can feel my skin getting moisturized, so I'll continue to use it.
I chose this because I've become a fan of Harbor! I was surprised at how small it was! But it really worked! I put it on my problematic hands and they instantly became prettier, which surprised me! Just as the name suggests, it whitened my hands! This is more effective than expensive hand creams!
