hiii 🩷 so um. i wasn’t gonna post this at first bc i didn’t think a single ampoule could change my entire routine 😭 but now that i found out this is literally #1 on Olive Young Global rn 🏆 i felt morally obligated to share
because like… what did Medicube put in this omg
🧬💖✨✨✨✨
⠀
📦 how it started...
i got this when i was in Seoul a couple months ago 🇰🇷 i’d seen some local girls grabbing 3, 4 bottles like it was toilet paper in a pandemic lol. one of them even turned to me and was like “you need this for your skin” (like girl okay 🧍♀️) so i tossed it in my basket not thinking too much fast forward to now and... i’m here fighting for my last 1/3 of the bottle like it’s holy water 😭
⠀
🧪 ingredient nerd moment
okay. so this isn’t just cute pink serum vibes. this is clinical-grade stuff in a cute glass bottle 💉💎
the big star is PDRN (yes the salmon DNA thing) which is a healing powerhouse. in Korea they actually use this stuff in dermatology treatments. like, needle-to-face level
Medicube just casually drops that into a serum and mixes it with 9 peptides, niacinamide, adenosine, and panthenol 🧪🍶
✨ the combo is SO barrier-friendly
✨ it calms + brightens + firms
✨ and most importantly?? it doesn’t clog or irritate like so many peptide serums do
⠀
🫧 on the skin... wow
it’s got this jelly-serum texture that melts in soooo smooth 😩
no scent (thank god), no greasiness, no pilling
layers perfectly under SPF and doesn’t freak out my sensitive skin 💕
like i have combo skin that leans dry, and this made my cheeks plump while keeping my T-zone chill
🌸 hydration level: chef’s kiss
🌸 glow factor: subtle but alive
🌸 irritation: literally none
⠀
👩🔬 results after 6 weeks
y’all. i did a double take in the mirror one morning bc my skin just looked… clean. not just in a poreless way but in a healed, repaired kind of way 🥹
☑️ redness down
☑️ little lines under my eyes looked less crusty
☑️ post-acne marks fading faster
☑️ barrier feels stronger — like wind doesn’t bother me anymore? lol
and best part??? NO BREAKOUTS 😭😭😭
which is insane bc my skin usually rebels when i add actives of any kind
⠀
💡 btw if you have rosacea, sensitivity, tret damage, or you’re just a skincare minimalist — this is your serum. it works best in a simple routine. i use it with just toner and moisturizer and boom 💥 glow
⠀
🛍️ where to get it (US edition)
i’m in ohio rn and i can’t find it in stores here 🤧 so i use Olive Young Global (yes they ship here!!) and i saw it’s currently their #1 top selling serum — and honestly??? they’re not wrong.
if you see it on sale, don’t even think. just stock. up. 📦📦📦
(some of my friends tried getting it on Amazon but pls be careful… some sellers looked sketchy af)
⠀
✨ final thoughts ✨
this isn’t just ✨aesthetic pink serum✨
it’s scientifically solid, barrier-saving, and just makes my skin feel safe and loved 💕🫧
like yes it’s cute
yes it’s popular
but it’s also just… really damn good
if you’ve been thinking about trying it, just do it. treat yourself. thank me later 💌💆♀️
