Thanks to good genes, I’ve been lucky enough not to suffer through any major skin woes throughout my life. Still, dryness and dullness are two issues that I do experience, especially during the winter months.

While I’ve tried more lotions, creams, and oils than I can possibly count, I can safely say that no product has ever quenched my skin quite like the Blithe Chaga Mushroom Pressed Serum. The K-beauty find, which firms, tightens, and hydrates the skin all at once, is truly my latest obsession. And while I was shocked to witness how fast it provided results, I think its low price point—only $20 on Amazo–may be even more surprising.

In the past, the moisturizing products I’ve used have followed a similar pattern. My skin looks amazing right after application, but the glow is quick to fade. However, that isn’t the case with this find. Yes, my complexion instantly looks healthier after I put it on—but even better, it stays dewy and fresh throughout the day. The story is the same when I use it before bed. I wake up, and my skin somehow looks just as nourished as it did eight hours prior. There’s a noticeable radiance and plumpness that, to be frank, I thought was only possible from products that are triple the price. And because it’s a serum that’s creamy and moisturizer-like in texture, I’ve found that it cuts down the steps in my skin care routine. Rather than use a separate serum and moisturizer, for me, this does the work of both.
