However, a few customers have mentioned that it did not meet their expectations for a Skinceuticals dupe.
Lightweight Formula

Highlights
Quality
The serum formula is lightweight and non-sticky, which feels great on my skin.
I really feel the cosrx products working on my skin, i've been using them for about 5 years now and have noticed a big change.
This product made my skin look so glowy after application.
To me it smells like copper and burnt orange peels.
Price
I been using this for many months now and this is the best for the price!
Packaging/appearance
I gave this product a rating based on the serum and not the misleading packaging.
I was a little confused when i received this product and it was half empty.
Competitiveness
First off, let me say i think this is the best brand out there.

I feel like i can see a difference in my skin tone but warning it does make your skin feel tacky after you apply it so i’d recommend it bedtime unless you’re doing a no make up day

Also all the claims about the smell yeah it does have a rather offputting scent but it’s very shortly lasted as soon as it dries scent is gone
