An anti-aging facial mist with light and minute moisture particle that can be used anytime during the day to refresh fatigue skin. Containing extracts from Korean Pearl, Chlorella and Seaweed to greatly enhance and help lock moisture.
There are thousands of new Korean brands each year, with Klavuu being one of them, that has been widely used by bloggers and celebrities.
According to Klog and Stylekorean, Klavuu (pronounced as “Kla-view”) is a brand that focuses on the power of natural pearl extracts for brightening and hydrating the skin. A portmanteau of the Swedish words for "clear" and "view," Klavuu formulates its deeply hydrating assortment to cleanse and clarify your skin. Each elixir is crafted with a sea-inspired blend of pearl and marine-based plant botanicals, touting the line's love for the ocean in every cream, mask and body wash.
Packaging, Scent and Texture
Made in Korea, Klavuu Divine Pearl Serum Mist comes in an opaque pearly sheen bottle containing a mere 50ml contents. With once a day usage, it was quickly used up within 2 weeks.
Since the bottle is opaque, there is difficulty in telling how much is left in the bottle and it also felt airy and light, to be able to "feel" the weight of the mist.
The mist is very fine and goes on smoothly when you just need to hold and press on the nozzle and just keep misting. I adore nozzles like this which makes the usage so simple and convenient, unlike some which requires one to keep pressing and letting go of the nozzle.
There is a subtle citrus-like fragrance from the misting and was cooling on the skin, probably due to the inclusion of Alcohol Denat which I don't fancy in any skincare/hair care products.
The mist left a thin film of serum on the skin, which I would do some patting, just to ensure it gets absorbed into the skin before I moved on to the next skincare product in my routine.
Performance and Ingredients
In terms of performance, Klavuu Divine Pearl Serum Mist feels soothing and cooling on skin but I have to say I can't see any visible improvement to my skin in terms of brightening effects. I guess 2 weeks is too short for one to see any brightening difference. However, I have not experience any flakiness during usage, but hydration did not increase either.
There is no ingredient list stated on the bottle, so I got the list from Yesstyle and found out that alcohol denat is 5th in the list, but I guess I should take consolation in the fact that at least, its after Niacinamide.
The key ingredients are
Niacinamide : Also known as vitamin B3 and nicotinamide, niacinamide is a water-soluble vitamin that works with the natural substances in your skin to help visibly improve enlarged pores, uneven skin tone, fine lines and wrinkles, dullness, and a weakened surface. Niacinamide also reduces the impact of environmental damage because of its ability to improve skin’s barrier (its first line of defense), plus it also plays a role in helping skin to repair signs of past damage. Left unchecked, this type of daily assault makes skin appear older, dull, and less radiant. ( source )
Pearl Extract : Pearl extract is the beauty elixir that has been known in Traditional Chinese Medicine for a long time. It consists of a natural complex based on sea mineral water. Besides many micronutrients, such as zinc, selenium, lithium, phosphor, iodine, iron and magnesium, pearl extract contains more than 20 different amino acids perfectly nourishing your skin and making it soft. Due to its soothing and restorative effect, pearl extract can permanently and intensively regulate skin hydration, accelerate skin renewal and boost skin vitality.
Codium Tomentosum (Algae) Extract : Algae act as thickening agents, water-binding agents and antioxidants. However, some algae are potential skin sensitizers like, the phycocyanin present in blue-green algae has been suspected of sensitization on the basis of patch tests. Other forms of algae, such as Irish moss and carrageenan, contain proteins, vitamin A, sugar, starch, vitamin B1, iron, sodium, phosphorus, magnesium, copper, and calcium. Most of these are beneficial for skin, as emollients, soothing agents, or antioxidants.
New research shows forms of brown algae show promise for improving the appearance of aging skin. As a plant ingredient, all types of algae are prone to breaking down with routine exposure to air and light. Because of this, avoid anti-aging products with algae that are packaged in jars. ( source )

Conclusion
To conclude, I have to say that I can't really tell a difference on my skin in the 2 weeks which I have been using the Klavuu Divine Pearl Serum Mist. Plus the fact that the brand's products isn't the cheapest, in comparison with the rest of Kbeauty products and it contains alcohol, high up in the list. I believe I can try other Kbeauty products with an affordable pricing or the more popular ones from the brand.
