That’s exactly where I am with the D’Alba Piedmont Italian White Truffle First Spray Serum.
The dual-layer mist has become a major Amazon seller, with more than 30,000 shoppers buying it recently. It also has tens of thousands of customer reviews, and it’s certainly one of the standout Korean skincare finds currently circulating online.
And right now, the timing is particularly good: the full-size 3.38-ounce bottle is available for less than $20, making it an especially tempting time to try the spray that has built such a loyal following.
I first picked mine up in South Korea because I kept seeing d’Alba products everywhere, and once I started using this spray, I understood the appeal. It’s not a traditional serum that I have to carefully dispense onto my fingers and work into my skin. I just shake the bottle to mix the two layers, mist it over my face, and pat it in.
The formula combines a serum layer with an oil layer and features white truffle extract from Piedmont, Italy, along with moisturizing ingredients. For me, the biggest draw is the instant dewy finish. Whenever my skin looks dull or feels dry, a few sprays give it a more hydrated, fresh-looking appearance without adding another complicated step to my routine.
I also found myself refreshing with it throughout the day. It can be used as a quick skin refresh, and the fine mist makes it easy to spritz on when I want my complexion to look more hydrated. I especially like having something this lightweight when my skin is craving moisture but I don’t want to pile on another heavy layer of skincare.
After finishing my bottle, I can give this product a pretty straightforward endorsement: I need more. I originally thought of it as one of those Korean beauty products I’d bring home from a trip and use occasionally, but I ended up going through the entire bottle.
Now that I know I can get the full-size D’Alba Piedmont Italian White Truffle First Spray Serum for under $20, I don’t need to wait until my next trip to South Korea to restock. If you’re after that glossy, hydrated-looking skin and love a skincare product that takes seconds to use, this is one I’d put at the top of the list.
As one of the best in K-beauty, the medicube Pore Pads reduce the look of large pores, earning a spot in your skincare routine. Trust me, I reviewed nearly the whole brand (and plenty of pore pads).
When the inevitable blemish or clogged pore arrives, I wear these patches without shame. They work, squeeze all the gunk out (ew, I know), and are a product I can’t run out of.
Love ’em or hate ’em, these wipes easily remove all of my makeup from the day — including the essence mascara! — and never irritate my skin or break me out.
