Yuja Face Oil
*** I got this product to test from Jolse, even though it still shows my personal opinion on the topic and product**
Hanyul's choice of using Yuja oil in a product shouldn't be surprising - Hanyul is a brand which we can clearly classify as a Hanbang brand because the main inspiration of Hanyul is Korean traditional medicine. Hanyul is not scared of using folk remedies used by women for ages. The brand is drawing inspiration from nature by using ingredients known in Korea for ages. Besides Yuja, Hanyul offers product inspired by ingredients such as rice, artemisia, red beans, brown pine needles and other local plants.
Design
The thing that really got me with this product is the design. I can't deny that design of Hanyul's product is 10 out of 10! They had a great coherence between product design, the idea behind the brand and photography content which you can see on Hanyul's Instagram or website. Somehow the packaging feels to me like it was inspired by Pantone. What's original - the packaging has two different sides - one with Korean name of the brand and product and second - with English translation. There's also instruction in Korean and English translation - that's bit unusual but I guess the non-Korean speaking customer is going to choose this option over full Korean packaging. Inside the box, we can find a yellow bottle made out of the glass with a pipette. The bottle contains 30 ml of Yuja Oil. On the bottom part of the bottle, you can find information that this oil should be used in 12 months and stored in 10°C-30°C (50°F-86°F).
Experience
The Yuja Oil can be used on its own or with Sleeping Mask and Sheet Mask, I tried it alone. According to the instruction Hanyul attached to the packaging, the Yuja Face Oil should be used as the last part of the skincare routine and 1-2 drops are enough to cover the entire face. The oil is moisturizing but also whitening and relaxing. And I can totally agree - the scent is incredible and when we look at ingredients you'll understand why, so let's take a look.
SCENT
Do you see here any artificial fragrance? No, there's none and that's the biggest plus of this oil - the scent is very pure and I enjoy it - it's sweet and sour, very similar to lemon with a hint of bitterness. The scent disappears after about 15 minutes but for some people, it might be too weak or too strong, in my opinion, it's a relaxing scent. Because Yuja is a citrus fruit I would recommend you to do a patch test before you try it - just to know if you've got any allergic reactions to Yuja or other ingredient found in this product.
The oil doesn't leave the skin oily, it literally melts into skin leaving the healthy glow on the skin. You can't feel the oiliness under your fingers - all you can feel is this velvet 'aftertaste', the skin feels ultra soft and firm.
I simply love this oil, it's not super oily, it's just super comfortable on my skin.
Nothing really, I just enjoyed this oil fully, some people might not like the scent.
