as you all know, i adore the original innisfree soybean energy essence. and when i emptied the bottle, i switched to skinfood black sugar perfect first serum 2x in light, and i love it too. but budget wise, the innisfree one is a better choice for me, since i can get up to 6 months usage on one bottle while the skinfood one only lasts up to two months. so, once i finished my skinfood, i ordered the light version from innisfree, thinking that i live in hot and humid country.
i've mentioned in my previous post that this one is runnier than the original one, just like water. but it doesn't give much difference in absorption rate. both are being absorbed pretty quick. but somehow, i think the original version gives more hydration than the light one. but perhaps it's my aging skin that i need more hydration than before. so, i think the light one definitely works better for those who live in hot and humid weather or have oily or combination skin.
now, the light version has more fermented soybean in its ingredients, but i notice that the original one bring brightness to my face, better than the light version. i think my skin was glowing when i used the original one, but now, it's just ordinary. as for the rate of usage, since this one is pretty runny, i use it quicker than the original one. i've used this for two months and a quarter of the bottle has gone. and this is the 150 ml one, while i used 80 ml of the original one for more than 6 months.
bottom line, i like the light version as much as the original one, but i think the original one will be more suitable for me now than the light one. but i don't know if i'm gonna repurchase this, since i've been curious about the face shop the therapy anti aging line, and they have first serum too. so i will wait around and then decide which one to buy later.
