Serum Review: innisfree brightening & pore-caring serum

innisfree brightening & pore-caring serum
AvailabilityThis is available at sephora.com, jcpenny.com and us.innisfree.com as well as their physical store locations along with flip.shop. The retail pricing is $37 for 50 ml (1.69 oz.)

Would I buy this? No. 

What is this product? What is it supposed to do?
Product info according to sephora.com:
What it is: A double-duty serum with vitamin C from Jeju tangerine that perks up skin’s bright appearance while helping even the look of tone, texture, and pores.
Skin Type: Normal, Dry, Combination, and Oily
Skincare Concerns: Dullness and Uneven Texture, Dark Spots, and Pores
Formulation: Lightweight Serum
Ingredient Callouts: Free of sulfates SLS and SLES, parabens, formaldehydes, formaldehyde-releasing agents, phthalates, mineral oil, retinyl palmitate, oxybenzone, coal tar, hydroquinone, triclosan, and triclocarban. This product comes in recyclable packaging.
What Else You Need to Know: This refreshingly-lightweight serum is loaded with ampoule-filled capsules that release brightening ingredients as you apply it. To encourage a bright, even complexion, it’s made with tangerine peels harvested on Jeju Island, South Korea, which contain four times more vitamin C than the fruit’s flesh.

Does this contain any special/beneficial ingredients?
Again, according to sephora.com:
- Tangerine Peel Extract: Helps brighten and even out the complexion.
- Encapsulated Ampoules: Freshly infuse into the essence base with every pump to help brighten the complexion.

What is the texture like?
This has a watery gel texture.

Is this scented?
This has a clean, fresh, slightly citrusy scent. 

What has my experience with the product been like?
I really like the way this feels refreshing going on and its texture is lovely. However, I don't find that this creates a giant difference in terms of my skin's radiance nor does it really do anything for my pores.

Please let me know if you have any comments or questions.
