d'Alba White Truffle First Spray Serum 화이트 트러플 퍼스트 스프레이 세럼
A two-phase spray that shakes into an emulsion of white truffle extract and plant oils, applied as the first step after cleansing. It is the product that made d'Alba a duty-free fixture, and the format is genuinely unusual — an oil-containing serum delivered as a mist, leaving a soft, faintly luminous finish rather than a wet one you have to wait out.
Who it suits
Dry, dull or mature skin that wants a fast one-step glow layer, and travellers who want a serum that survives a carry-on liquids bag. Oily and acne-prone skin should be cautious — the oil phase does not suit everyone. It is a comfort and finish product rather than a treatment for any particular concern.
How to use it
Shake hard until the phases combine, mist onto cleansed skin from a short distance, then press in. Two or three sprays, AM and PM, before the rest of your steps. It can also be misted over makeup for a dewier finish, though it will move foundation if you overdo it.

🙋 People also ask
What is the difference between essence and serum?
In Korean skincare, essence is typically a thinner, hydration-focused layer that preps skin, while serum is more concentrated with targeted actives like vitamin C or niacinamide. Essence usually comes first; serum follows. The line between them blurs, and not every routine needs both.
What is a first essence and do I need one?
A first essence is a watery, high-percentage ferment applied straight after cleansing, before anything else. It is a hydration and conditioning step. Pleasant and popular, but genuinely optional.
What is the difference between essence, serum and ampoule?
Essence is the lightest and most hydration-focused, serum is more concentrated and targeted, and ampoule is the most concentrated of the three. The boundaries are marketing convention, not regulated definitions.
