I tried applying various foundations and BB creams, thinking my skin was a blank canvas, but since my skin is quite sensitive, I ended up getting breakouts. After searching and searching, I finally settled on this product and can't use anything else now. I have to order it online for overseas delivery every time. I use this and then add a bit more coverage with The Saem concealer. Even when I just slap it on, it gives a natural skin-like finish, rather than looking overly made up. It seems to be a product that is faithful to the essence of BB creams.
ConsAs far as I know, it doesn't contain any UV protection. I'm not sure about the reformulated product, but the previous version didn't have it... I was shocked when I looked at the ingredients. Given how sensitive my skin is, it's surprising that I've never had any breakouts with this 'regenerating BB cream'. It's a betrayal...I've also heard that it's okay to use it before bed, but still. If you want more coverage, you'll have to look for another product. If you don't want to use concealer like me... The formula used to be quite thick and creamy, but it seems to have become a bit smoother after the reformulation.
TipMy skin is sensitive, so oil doesn't really work for me, but when I mix in a drop of oil, it makes my skin look so much better.

It does feel a bit heavy when applied, but the texture is gentle, and I didn't experience any breakouts or issues.
ConsI was only 12 years old when I first purchased this, and I had no idea it contained such strong ingredients. Even though it claims to be a natural, dermatological product, I don't feel comfortable using it, as I'm not confident in its safety.
TipI thought this was just a colored lotion with natural herbal ingredients, so I would sometimes even apply it as a night cream. But I realize now that was a foolish thing to do. Hwahae Trial Reviewers, please don't make the same mistake I did...

I've even applied it like a regular cream before, but the oily and thick texture was a letdown. While it did help revive my skin tone after application, I feel like I've been backstabbed after checking the ingredients - my desire to use it has completely vanished.
ConsThe natural-looking skin tone is good, but the texture and fragrance are not that great. And after checking the ingredients, it seems like an evil product - I definitely don't want to use it again.

However, this BB cream is still the only one I can use! The tone of the product itself is on the darker side, but it blends naturally with my skin tone and has good spreadability.
ConsThe coverage is 2 out of 5 points. As it is a product used by many people with sensitive skin, the thickness is not burdensome, but the coverage is correspondingly weak.
TipThis product is used in the order of BB cream > sunscreen.

ConsIt's a bit more matte than I expected, so the application isn't great, and it feels more oily than moisturizing.

I wonder if that's really possible.
Cons- The application is very thick and stiff, like applying a super high SPF body sunblock on the face. It's surprisingly difficult to spread. - The unforgivable smell, like old cosmetic oil? - The stuffy, heavy feeling may be due to the smell. I also bought the Alex Royal Vegan, which I initially thought had gone bad because of the smell, but tried this one and realized that's just how it is. - It evens out the tone to a uniform grayish color. - As you can see, it contains quite concerning ingredients. While it doesn't cause breakouts, there aren't any outstanding benefits either, so I don't want to use it.

It's just a BB cream that does a decent job of color correction, but it has a lot more chemical ingredients than foundation. I used to use it, but now I'm going to switch to pure or stop using it.
ConsI sometimes get breakouts, but I'm not sure what ingredient is causing it. I don't recommend it for those with dry skin.
