First Impressions: Tiny Bottle, Big Price Tag

First impression? The bottle is so tiny I almost mistook it for an overpriced sample. “30ml?! For NT$3,800?!” I shriek, clutching my poor, financially unstable chest. But then I remembered: I once paid a fortune to dive into a literal abyss. What’s a little financial irresponsibility in the name of skincare?

The Sensory Experience: Ocean Kissed Skin

I pump a few drops onto my palm and inspect it like I am about to run a chemistry experiment. The texture? Silky but not sticky—like the ocean is kissing my hand without the whole “covered in fish poop” part. The smell? Surprisingly elegant. I was expecting it to reek of low tide, but instead, I got soft notes of white musk and botanicals. Fancy.

Application and Immediate Results: A Plump Transformation

Application time. I slather it onto my face, massaging it in like my life depends on it. According to the brochure, the hydrolyzed coral is supposedly broken down into teeny tiny molecules that absorb into the dermis in 30 seconds. And guess what? They aren’t lying. My skin drinks it up faster than I chug bubble tea during a heatwave.

After applying the serum, the transformation is immediate and dramatic. My skin is instantly plumped, a marshmallow that’s just received a hydration boost. Fine lines are softened and dry patches vanish. The results are so pronounced that I can’t help but post about them to my mom. “Ma, look at my skin! Am I glowing?” I practically shout. She squints and says, “Yes, but also, stop shouting.”

Final Verdict: Luxurious Hydration with Anti-Aging Sorcery

Final verdict? MedCoral’sCoral Vitality Serum is a luxurious slap of hydration with a side of anti-aging sorcery. Would I buy it? If I weren’t constantly teetering on financial ruin, absolutely. Would I recommend it? Only if you want to look like you just emerged from a mystical oceanic fountain of youth. And the best part? It seems to work for all skin types, from dry to oily, which is a rare find in the skincare world. This luxurious feel of the serum makes me feel indulgent and pampered.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to mourn the sea turtle tattoo I’ll never get while admiring my newly rejuvenated face. Thanks, MedCoral—you almost made me forget that aging is real.

Update: Day 7 – Still Bouncy, Still Blurred

Update: Day 7 of Using MedCoral’s Serum, and the results keep getting better.

I have to admit, I was skeptical at first. I mean, how much magic can a few drops of coral juice really perform? But here I am, a week later, staring at my reflection like Narcissus reborn. My skin? Still bouncy. My fine lines? Still blurred. My bank account? Still crying. But hey, at least I look expensive. And the icing on the cake? The serum’s effects are long-lasting. Not only is my skin plump and hydrated immediately after application, but it also looks healthier and more radiant over time. That lingering effect provided confidence and assured me of the product’s quality.

Even my mother, who usually reserves her compliments for my brother, has noticed. “Your face looks… less tired,” she mumbled yesterday. That’s basically the closest thing to a standing ovation in my household.

The only downside? I’ve started rationing the serum like it’s the last bottle of water in a desert. At this price, I’m half tempted to drink it and see if it hydrates me from the inside out. But for now, I’ll just keep dabbing it onto my skin like I’m an ancient queen preserving my youth.

MedCoral, you win this round.

My Backstory: From Sea Adventures to Eczema Battles

As a free-spirited adventurer who’s travelled to over 45 countries mostly to jump into the waters across the globe; as a sea-lover who’s always been fascinated about sea creatures and even risked my life to dive in the world’s most dangerous diving site (The Great Blue Hole in Belize) and swam with sharks; as a rebellious art genius who’s always wanted a tattoo since junior high (when I started to become rebellious) but haven’t yet because I wanted to design my own tattoo since I’m an artist and only got a bunch of piercings instead, and well, fine, because I’m cheap and wanted a free tattoo (tattoos are expensive!) and when I finally found a sponsor recently and came up with my own micro-tattoo design of a sea turtle (it’s symbolic, size doesn’t matter! and I LOVE sea creatures!), news about “tattoos increase risk of lymphoma by over 20%” started popping up everywhere and I finally decided to not get tattoos once and for all (I’m telling you, I’m God’s favourite child);

The Eczema Revelation: Coral as a Healing Elixir

Now, let’s talk about my eczema because clearly, my skin loves to remind me that I’m still human and not a majestic mermaid (rude). There was a time I thought I had it the worst—bleeding, scratching like a rabid raccoon, and waking up to skin flakes decorating my bed like it was snowing inside my room. But then, one fateful doomscrolling session later, I saw a Caucasian TikToker talking about how coral cured her eczema. And not just any eczema—she was BLEEDING around her eyes! My suffering suddenly felt amateur-level. Naturally, I went down the coral-healing rabbit hole. It turns out coral is loaded with minerals and trace elements that our skin craves like a desperate ex. It has natural anti-inflammatory qualities, promotes skin regeneration, and rebuilds the skin barrier like some kind of magic sea elixir. Some researchers even assign antimicrobial qualities to it, making it the ultimate ocean-borne champion of skin irritations. So, with my newfound faith in coral’s mystical healing powers, I was beyond intrigued when this coral-infused serum landed in my hands. If a TikToker can go from bloodied raccoon to flawless porcelain doll, then surely, I, too, can achieve the skin of an ethereal sea goddess! (Or at least, you know, stop shedding like a moulting reptile).
