- Hwahae UserCombination SkinRecommendedMar 16, 2022
I've been using this consistently for over 3 years now. It gives a firming effect without any stickiness. On dry winter nights, applying just this one product leaves my skin smooth by morning. My makeup also applies beautifully over it. While my skin tends to break out with even slightly rich moisturizers, this one doesn't cause any issues at all. The only downside is that Darphin stores have been decreasing in number. I'm worried they might withdraw from the Korean market altogether... It's not just great for nighttime use, but also works wonderfully when applied before makeup. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinOct 21, 2021
My skin texture improves the next day. It feels moisturized without any tightness. The product also applies smoothly. While the overall skin texture improves, I suddenly developed large blemishes. I checked the ingredients on Hwahae, and it mentioned that it can cause acne for oily skin types. So I stopped using it. - lu******Combination SkinSensitive SkinRecommendedJul 15, 2020
When I apply it before bed, I can feel the difference in my skin texture when I wake up The price is quite high, and during summer, it might feel a bit too rich on the skin - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinRecommendedApr 27, 2020
I've been using this product since I bought it from a Parisian pharmacy, and I'm already on my 8th bottle. I feel anxious without it in winter. Before, no matter what I used, my face would be covered in white dead skin cells, but since using this, my skin feels well-hydrated. It definitely seems to work wonders for dry skin. The downside is that if you accidentally apply it around your eyes, it can make them tear up and cause irritation and a tingling sensation. You need to be careful to avoid the eye area when applying. It doesn't seem to be particularly gentle. When my skin gets really flaky in winter, instead of exfoliating and irritating my skin, I focus on hydration. I mix this with some Paw Paw cream I bought in Australia and apply it before bed. It really helps reduce dead skin cells. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinRecommendedJun 14, 2019
The absorption was decent, and I heard it contains madecassoside which is great for skin recovery. Maybe that's why it was so effective at calming my blemishes - I loved it! I thought I'd stick with this product since it calmed my blemishes so well, but I'm not sure if I've built up a tolerance or what. It worked amazingly for about two months, but now I'm not so sure about its effectiveness. It could be due to air pollution though. 
Hwahae UserOily SkinSensitive SkinRecommendedFeb 26, 2019The product box contains a beautifully folded instruction leaflet with product descriptions in various languages, including Korean, which I really appreciated! The cream is white in color and has a light, smooth texture that spreads evenly without clumping. After application, it leaves the skin feeling moisturized without any stickiness. Immediately after applying, there's a nice glow on the face, but over time it absorbs slowly, leaving a fresh finish. The scent is a subtle, pleasant floral fragrance that's not overpowering. I've been using it daily and I'm satisfied with how it feels. It also works well as a base for makeup the next morning. It comes in a jar but doesn't include a spatula. For those with normal skin, it might not provide 100% sufficient hydration on its own during winter, which was slightly disappointing. I had to use an essence along with it, but it should be fine on its own for spring and summer. Recommended for those in their 30s who are looking to start a gentle anti-aging routine. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinRecommendedNov 4, 2018
I've been using this for 3 days now, and my skin texture has become incredibly soft. I want to recommend it to everyone around me! The ingredients seem pretty good too, so I'm extremely satisfied! (I have combination skin, by the way.) I received this as a gift, so I'm not sure about the price... is it expensive? After trying it out, I can't find any downsides. 
Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinRecommendedMay 29, 2018I discovered this brand when I received a professional Darphin aesthetic massage. I love the firm, bouncy feeling when applied. The scent is also quite pleasant. I have combination to oily skin, but this product seems more suitable for dry skin types. It feels a bit richer in oils than I prefer. I only apply it at night after my toner before going to bed. - Hwahae UserDry SkinMar 3, 2018
I've been consistently using this product for 4 years now, and it's perfect for my sensitive, dry skin! I've never experienced any blemishes or adverse reactions! I'm almost finished with my current bottle and will definitely repurchase! There's not really anything I dislike about it... I noticed a few ingredients that caught my attention, but since I haven't had any negative reactions, I'm planning to continue using it! It works even better when used together with Darphin Chamomile Oil! - Hwahae UserDry SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinMar 3, 2018
The texture is nice and it's relatively affordable compared to other functional creams I have extremely dry skin, but oddly enough, this product didn't absorb well into my skin. Maybe it's because I really dislike heavy formulas, or perhaps because I've been maintaining high hydration levels with my daily mask routine. But more importantly, the fragrance is personally very off-putting and strong. It smells so intensely like cosmetics that it was a struggle to use every time.
