Texture: It is a spot gel, literally a transparent gel with viscosity. How to use: Use a cotton swab to apply it generously on the acne area after completing your skincare routine. Effect: The acne area calms down by the next day!!! It works well on cystic acne and non-inflammatory acne - I can feel it soothing the area when I apply it before bed. It has now become an essential item in my skincare routine!!! Olive Young often has sales, so when you purchase it, you also get 2 sample cleansing foams included!!
ConsThe gel dries up and becomes rubbery in texture ㅠㅠ So you shouldn't touch your face after applying it!!! Use it only before going to bed at night!!

I really liked that aspect.
ConsAs I mentioned in the positive points, I once applied it incorrectly to my cystic acne, and it really stung, so I immediately wiped it off. It's important to be careful and apply it properly. Also, it has a somewhat sticky, tacky feel, so be careful that it doesn't get caught in your hair. Oh, and last time I applied it and woke up, it had hardened a bit and came off almost like a peel. I didn't really like that, so I gently scraped it off a bit.
TipIf you apply it carefully and observe your skin, it should work really well.

ConsAfter applying, when it dries, there can be a thin membrane-like residue left behind, which can be inconvenient when applying makeup. It seems better to apply it before going to bed.

If you're troubled by troubles, I'll recommend it!
ConsThis hardens over time, so if you apply too much, it looks like you have flaky skin on your face?
TipIf you squeeze and apply acne, it's a complete direct hit!!

This product was the only one that worked for me. When you apply it, the improvement is immediately visible. Whenever I have scars or acne on my face, I just use this product and it really works wonders. I highly recommend this product. I went to Olive Young over 5 times just to find this product. Please don't disappear. 😭😭
ConsWhen you apply it, it feels a bit stiff? As you touch it, it comes off like eraser crumbs, and if it gets on your pillow and you accidentally touch your face, it gets really dirty, which makes me a bit annoyed. 🤨🤨
TipPlease buy it! And the photos were taken for a week, but I gave up and only have two days' worth, so the effect may not be very visible, but it's really good!!

It doesn't have a strong smell, and there's really nothing better than this!
ConsThis product contains a lot of harmful ingredients... After applying it and letting it dry, a white film-like substance forms, so you need to be careful. That's why I applied it at night.
TipDab it on whenever you have a breakout.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsI'm worried that if I pop pimples and put on patches, they'll fall off. And if I keep putting them on, I get frustrated seeing them stuck all over the place. But with this, just lightly brushing it on with a cotton swab and letting it dry forms a film that works great as a patch substitute. It actually helps calm things down too.
ConsIf you apply it after popping pimples, it will sting quite a bit. That's how strong the irritation is. And after it dries, even just brushing against it will cause the residue to flake off. It's best not to touch the areas you've applied it to.
TipFor those of you who think applying a lot or just putting it directly on pimples will really help calm things down - I absolutely do not recommend doing that. In my case, I tried that thinking it would help, but it just led to more bumps coming up in that area and my skin peeling due to the irritation. Just lightly spreading it on with a cotton swab is best.

When I apply it to my red, swollen, and pus-filled acne and sleep, I can visibly see it calming down a lot.
ConsIt dries up quickly, but as it dries, a white film-like thing forms. I absolutely can't do makeup after using this ㅠㅠ It's a bit disappointing that I can only use it before bed.

The conclusion is that I'm satisfied with it.^^ When I apply it to my existing acne and new blemishes, I can feel them calming down by the next morning. If I keep applying it consistently, the affected areas start to subside.
ConsAfter a while, the scent changes to an odd ointment-like smell. When I apply the liquid, it dries up and leaves a film-like effect. So if I try to apply another product on top of it, it tends to peel off like a layer.

It was only effective for inflammatory acne. It worked better on inflammatory acne, but was less effective on closed comedones. You don't see immediate results, but need to apply it consistently to see the effects. Since it's used as a spot treatment, I think the amount used is not too little compared to other acne spot treatments.
ConsIt's a fast-drying gel type, so the absorption is very quick. However, due to the gel type characteristics, it can become a bit drying and flaky as it dries, so it may not be suitable for use before and after makeup. I think it's better for women to use it only in the evenings. Since it contains a low concentration of salicylic acid, sunscreen is a must if used during the day. It's on the affordable side, but for this price, purchasing a benzoyl peroxide product might be more effective.
TipThis is my own method, not a general tip. I mix this with the Paulas Choice Bha 2% and use it as a spot treatment. When dealing with closed comedones, applying this mixture and letting it dry helps them come to a head, and they naturally fall off when cleansing. When using the Bha alone, the effects are a bit slower, but this combination is unbeatable.
