【14-Day Whitening & Dark Spot Correcting Ampoule Journey】
I’ve always wanted to try whitening products, but I’ve been hesitant because I was worried about my skin being sensitive! It wasn't until I found nudestory's skincare that I felt their products were a perfect fit for my skin, so I finally felt confident enough to try their whitening range.😌
Honestly, my main goal was whitening rather than dark spot correction. I’d tried many whitening/brightening masks, but none of them worked, so I had really lost interest in "whitening."🤷🏻♀️ When I was younger, I didn't like being so fair because I thought it made me look chubby, so for a while, I would run around outside at midday. In the end, I didn't get any darker, but I did develop a lot of freckles instead, which really bothers me. #WhatAnIdiot 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ That’s when I started focusing on sunscreen, but the freckles were already deeply etched onto my face.🥺
@nudestoryhk Intensive Whitening Ampoule $380 (1 box of 7 vials; 2 boxes of 14 vials make one course of treatment)
TL;DR: It does it all—brightens yellow tones, whitens, reduces dark spots, minimizes pores, and moisturizes. If you don't want to read, just look at the results in the pictures above! (Please excuse the lighting discrepancy; I’ve tried my best to adjust it to look as realistic as possible.🥺🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼)
🔅 Ampoules are highly concentrated serums, so they shouldn't be used every day in the long term; the concentration is almost 13 times that of a night cream!
💧 Brightens yellow tones, whitens, and evens out skin tone
By the third day, I could gradually see the brightening and whitening effects. My face used to be pinkish while my neck was yellowish, and the color difference was quite obvious. But one day I noticed my face wasn't as red and my neck wasn't as yellow—there was no longer a two-toned look. The effect of removing yellow tones and evening out the skin tone was super obvious!
And I can say with absolute certainty: it really whitens! It really does! Sorry for the photos looking yellow one moment and white the next, but compared to Day 1, my skin tone on Day 14 is definitely whiter! Before the ampoules, my YSL cushion looked too white on me, but after using the ampoules, that "too white/mismatched" feeling is gone—the color looks much more natural now!
💧 Dark spot correction
It really does fade dark spots! Some spots actually disappeared! The pictures say it all! I have some fairly obvious and large dark spots on the right side of my face, and they have really, really faded! The largest spot hasn't completely vanished yet, but it has faded significantly! I am super satisfied with this result. Most of my foundations couldn't cover that spot before, but after using the ampoules, even my Guerlain foundation, which doesn't have great coverage, can completely hide it! The dark spot correction is top-notch! It really works!
💧 Pore minimization, refined, smooth, and radiant skin
Nudestory didn't mention that the whitening ampoules could minimize pores, but by the 10th day, I was shocked to find that my pores had completely disappeared! Every time I stay up late, my pores usually pop out to say hi, and I was sleep-deprived during those two weeks of using the ampoules, yet my pores were gone! My skin also became very refined and smooth; it feels completely soft to the touch! Plus, my face looks so clean—I felt like I was due for a deep clean, but my skin was so clear it didn't even seem necessary. It’s amazing! At the same time, my face has a lovely glow—the kind of glow you get from healthy, plump skin, combined with the brightness from the whitening effect!
💧 Hydration
Nudestory didn't mention this ampoule was hydrating either, and I was worried it might be drying at first. To my surprise, it’s very moisturizing! During the 14 days, I didn't use eye cream or lotion at all—there was no need! The ampoule was hydrating enough, and my foundation applied so smoothly, as if I had a full skincare routine underneath. It even seemed to make my makeup stick better!
🔅 My method: Before bed or before makeup—I use 2/3 of a vial at night and the remaining 1/3 in the morning, or sometimes I use a whole vial at night and just wash my face with water in the morning before applying sunscreen.
🔅 Steps: 1️⃣ Spritz toner 2️⃣ Apply ampoule 3️⃣ Done! It's that simple (After finishing the 14-day treatment, I found it hard to go back to my old routine; it felt like too many steps!)
👉🏻 Recommended usage: Use continuously for two weeks (one vial per day). If you want to boost the effects further after completing the treatment, take a one-week break before starting another 14-day ampoule journey.
💦 Texture: Water-like with high fluidity and spreadability. It takes about 1-2 minutes of massaging for it to be fully absorbed. Once absorbed, it’s not sticky at all; you don't even feel like you have anything on your face!
☃️ I’ll definitely repurchase these whitening ampoules when I have the budget, and I plan to try the hydrating ones in the winter (even the owner of Nudestory used the hydrating ampoules before her own wedding!!!) I’ve always loved their serums, but the ampoules are on a whole different level—really effective skincare. As always with Nudestory products, I love them and they suit me perfectly. Touch wood, I’ve yet to find anything from them that I don't like or that doesn't work for me.
