When I apply it before bed, my skin stays hydrated until the next morning. I love that it's not sticky at all.
ConsI hope the price becomes more affordable. Looking at the ingredient analysis, wow... I had no idea there were so many potentially harmful ingredients.

ConsIt felt nice when applying, but after a day, my face broke out completely. You might end up with a face full of small bumps and blemishes, and an overall irritated complexion. While reactions vary from person to person, I've usually been able to use most brand cosmetics without issues. However, looking at the ingredients of this Guinot product, it's no wonder. I got a full refund for everything today.
TipThe best tip is not to buy it at all

Absorbs well: True to its nature as a hydrating cream, it absorbs quickly upon application. It has a slight richness that leaves a subtle oily sheen on the face, but without feeling greasy, which I liked. Moisturizing effect: As someone with combination dehydrated skin, I've found that products with only hydration can cause surface dryness. I've tried various products, and among the hydrating creams I've used, this one has enough richness to prevent severe surface dryness. However, using it alone feels a bit light and slightly insufficient. Scent: Honestly, the best thing about Guinot products was the fragrance. Every time I applied it, I enjoyed the gentle, subtle, long-lasting scent that I hadn't experienced with other cosmetics. However, when I searched for Guinot on Hwahae and saw the red flag warning about the high content of fragrances, I was disappointed and decided to try other products, which is why I'm writing this review.
ConsHarmful ingredients: I expected a product as expensive as Guinot to be free of harmful ingredients. As an international brand, highly rated and sold at a premium in many skincare shops, I trusted it. Finding out it contains harmful ingredients was disappointing. I guess the price is inflated. This experience has made me realize the importance of knowing the exact ingredients I'm using. Price: Guinot belongs to the high-end range of cosmetic lines. A serum costs around $300, and a cream is usually about $100. Despite this, I had been using only Guinot products until now, although the price was quite burdensome. If I had known about the high content of harmful ingredients, I wouldn't have used it. From now on, I'll make better use of the Hwahae app.
TipAs someone who majored in skin science and worked in a skincare shop, I've always been interested in skincare. My skincare journey began in high school when acne concerns led me to start studying the subject. Through my studies, I learned that expensive cosmetics aren't always the best and that ingredients are crucial. Since then, I've experimented on my own skin in various ways. What I've realized is that everyone's skin is different, so it's essential to develop your own routine and maintain it consistently. Even the best product is useless if it doesn't suit you, so it's best to try different products and methods to find what works for you. Skin types can change with age and environment. While there are basic categories like normal, dry, oily, sensitive, and combination skin, there are many subtypes. It's crucial to use products that match your skin as it changes and as seasons shift. The most important aspect is cleansing! I believe that properly removing makeup is more important than using basic skincare products. Thorough cleansing with the right products opens up the pores, allowing better absorption of skincare products. That's why I focus more on cleansing than on applying makeup. My skin type is combination dehydrated, so I mainly use products with high moisture content. Since too much oil can make my skin feel greasy and prevent makeup from setting, I use hydrating creams that moisturize from within. In summer, I typically use just toner and hydrating cream for a light, fresh finish. From fall through winter and spring, I use toner, serum, and hydrating cream for extra moisture. I believe using too many basic skincare products after cleansing can clog pores, increase sebum production, and hinder the skin's natural regenerative abilities. Therefore, I think using excessive skincare products is wasteful. To all the Hwahae users who have many skin concerns and want to use the right products, I hope you'll try various products, read reviews, develop your own routine, and achieve the good skin you desire.

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.ProsIt absorbs well and feels like it adheres to the skin without any residue after application. This cream seems perfect for summer use. It's a moisturizer that will delight those in their 20s and those with oily skin. I have combination skin with dry cheeks and slight oiliness in the T-zone. I needed to apply it about three times to feel adequately moisturized. To be honest, I use a different cream at night. Since I often stay up late, when I feel dry, I either reapply a sleeping pack or layer on more cream before bed. This cream is excellent as a daily moisturizer for those in their 30s with combination to dry skin. After application, it leaves the skin smooth and hydrated, providing a boost of moisture. Comparing it to Clinique's Surge Moisture, the feeling after application is similar, but this one feels more hydrating.
ConsIt lacks the nourishment needed for night care. Unfortunately, as it's a surface cream, it doesn't address deep dryness. And the price is also a concern. Considering the price-to-performance ratio, Kiehl's seems to be a better option.
TipHighly recommended if you want to experience a luxurious moisturizer! It's great for daily use before makeup as it prevents pilling.

There's no stickiness, and it applies beautifully.
ConsHowever, it doesn't seem to suit dry skin, especially very dry skin. It felt moisturizing for a week, but when the cold wind hit, my skin started cracking, and my makeup looked terribly patchy. I'd recommend it for oily skin types, mainly for summer use.
TipThere's no oiliness at all, just an intense feeling of hydration. If you have extremely dry skin, I'd suggest mixing it with a face oil rather than using it alone.

I've been using it comfortably as my outer moisturizer for two years now.
ConsThere's nothing particularly bad about it. It's perfect as an outer moisturizer. The only drawback might be that it's a bit pricey.

It absorbs instantly, leaving a slightly matte finish. When you gently pat your face after application, your skin feels as smooth and supple as honey. Hydrabotté is Guinot's signature hydrating cream in their moisture line, making it the most affordable in their range. You can't spread a small amount over a large area because the skin drinks it up immediately. I sometimes apply a second layer if my skin feels tight, and it still absorbs quickly.
ConsThere are no real downsides. It's truly a hydrating cream without feeling greasy. However, for very dry or dehydrated skin, this cream alone may not be sufficient.
TipThis is a finishing moisturizer, so I recommend applying in this order: toner > essence or serum > eye cream > Hydrabotté. For dry skin, use products that penetrate the dermis during the essence/serum step to feel hydration from within when finishing with this cream. A hydrating cream primarily creates a protective layer on the skin's surface, so this cream alone may not deeply hydrate. Layer it over essences and serums for synergistic hydration from the inside out. As someone with sensitive combination skin, I've used over three tubes and can say that unless it's summer or you have oily skin, you may need more than just this cream to avoid tightness. For best results, always use a serum or essence underneath. The best thing about Guinot products is that you can feel your skin truly breathe and relax. This is likely due to how lightly and quickly it absorbs. Personally, I prefer their Hydra Sensitive cream (not listed on Hwahae). It's my holy grail - I've used over 5 tubes. It's incredibly gentle, non-irritating, and unbeatable for calming redness. It lets sensitive skin breathe.

I've tried various creams recommended for dry skin, but this product and the TONYMOLY Energy 100 Hour Cream have been the most satisfying. In summer, I apply it before bed, and in winter, I use it both morning and evening. It absorbs well and feels rich on the skin.
ConsI believe this product is typically sold at massage parlors. I purchase it through an acquaintance who does massages. Unfortunately, the price isn't very budget-friendly.
TipSince I'm not fond of layering multiple products, I just use this one and call it a day.

After using it for a week, I'm incredibly satisfied with the results.
ConsI find the consistency a bit thin, which is slightly disappointing. I think I would have preferred if it had a more rich, creamy texture.
