Glutathione serum for dry, acne-prone skin: HEEDA Glow Serum

How did my skin feel after about two weeks?

When I spent a long time in heated spaces, I was concerned about inner dryness and dullness, and my skin texture also felt less smooth. After using it consistently for about two weeks, my skin tone looked a little more even in the mirror, and I felt that morning tightness and base-makeup pilling had decreased. The morning after applying it at night, my skin also felt smooth and looked more radiant.

However, these changes are my personal impressions from using it on my own skin.

What are the texture and finish like?

It had a watery texture that flowed thinly when placed on the back of my hand. After application, it felt minimally sticky, and after a few seconds, I felt it left a subtle glow rather than a shiny surface finish. I tend to find products with a lot of oiliness burdensome, but this one left light hydration and was easy to layer.

Does it pill before morning makeup?

Even when I used it after toner and ampoule, there was hardly any pilling, and it also worked smoothly with the moisturizing cream I applied afterward. It seemed to absorb quickly, so I could use it without feeling stuffy on days with many skincare steps or before makeup.

Was the bottle and application method convenient?

The slim 30ml bottle has a dropper, making it easy to control the amount one drop at a time. I prefer droppers because the contents come into contact with the outside less often, and this felt convenient. It was also a manageable size to put in a bag or leave on a bathroom shelf.

What skin concerns did I use it for?

I used it when I was concerned about inner dryness during a dry season, a dull-looking tone, and flaky skin that lifted during makeup. The product description’s glutathione and niacinamide combination was also something I considered when choosing it, but in my roughly two-week experience, the brightening effect was limited to my impression that my tone looked a little more even.
