- Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinRecommendedFeb 13, 2021
Incredibly hydrating. It feels refreshingly cool, making it perfect for summer use. It absorbs well, but that also means it can leave your skin feeling dry rather quickly. - Hwahae UserOily SkinAcne SkinRecommendedAug 24, 2020
The gel texture glides on effortlessly, perfect for summer without weighing down the skin. It feels incredibly lightweight after application. Using this product alone might be too light even for oily skin types. - Hwahae UserNormal SkinRecommendedFeb 7, 2019
If you have oily skin, this is fantastic to use after cleansing. It's completely oil-free and leaves such a refreshing feeling that you'll find yourself reaching for it again and again. Since it's oil-free, I wouldn't recommend it for those with dry skin. - du******Dehydrated SkinSensitive SkinSebum/BlackheadsEnlarged PoresJun 19, 2018
I think those with oily skin will definitely see results. It feels like it absorbs excess oil well, especially on the cheeks. 1. Disliked that it's in a jar format 2. Too drying for me, perhaps because I don't have extremely oily skin 3. Seemed to make pores more noticeable 4. Experienced a recurrence of pustular acne 5. The spatula is curved like a spoon, making it difficult to scoop out the product (personally, I'd prefer if it were just flat) 6. Oil still came through in the nose area It could be a really great product if it suits your skin. Unfortunately, it didn't work well for me, probably because I have super sensitive skin and I'm not actually oily. 
Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinMay 25, 2018I've always struggled with excess oil in my T-zone, but this product was a game-changer! Applying it before makeup kept everything in place, concealed my pores beautifully, and controlled oil production. It's a gel formula that provides a lovely cooling effect. Highly recommend! I can't think of a single drawback. This product truly opened my eyes to a whole new world of skincare. It seems to work great as a pore-minimizing primer too. - Hwahae UserOily SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinRecommendedMay 25, 2018
This is the ultimate cream for oily skin. It really controls sebum and significantly reduces redness. I've spent hundreds on skincare, but for truly oily skin, this is the best. It's a cream that shatters the prejudice against Etude's basic skincare line. What? Discontinued? I can't believe they're discontinuing this. It's unthinkable! - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinRecommendedMay 16, 2018
This is truly the best, my holy grail cream! Please don't ever discontinue it! First off, it absorbs so quickly! I have extremely oily skin and usually break out the next day when using incompatible creams, but with this one, all my blemishes disappeared! My excess oil production has significantly decreased too! Secondly, the quantity is great for the price! It's quite affordable, and one purchase lasts about 2 months. I'm off to repurchase it now! Thirdly, the fragrance is lovely! It has a subtle scent that initially reminded me of my grandmother's cosmetics, but after applying it, I personally fell in love with it. Lastly, the packaging isn't in tube form! With tubes of the same volume, they're often half empty... giving a bit of a rip-off feeling. But this Zero Sebum Fresh Cream's honest packaging... I love it so much! I'm 100% going to repurchase. This was the first cosmetic product that had no disappointing aspects... I think it might be a bit drying for those with dry skin! But for oily skin types, I highly recommend giving it a try! - Hwahae UserOily SkinAcne SkinApr 24, 2018
After using this, I noticed a slight reduction in oiliness. I think if I apply it consistently, I'll see even better results. Of course, results may vary from person to person! There's not really anything disappointing about it, but if I had to say something... It can be a bit of a hassle to apply, and it takes some time to see the effects... 
Hwahae UserOily SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinApr 7, 2018For those with oily skin lacking hydration, this is truly an excellent cream... I've been skeptical of Etude products since middle school, as we didn't have ingredient analysis apps back then. Even when using Hwahae, I never gave Etude a second glance. But after struggling to find the right cream and reading reviews, I decided to give it a try despite my doubts. It really fills in that missing hydration perfectly! It's packed with moisture and finishes with a fresh feel, without any oiliness. Since using this, I haven't had any milia breakouts. I used to use products with more oil content, which led to milia, but not with this one! However, since it's so hydration-focused, I add a tiny bit of Etude's Soon Jung Cica Balm to balance the oil and moisture. This combination definitely makes my skin smoother. First off... I should have bought another one earlier. It seems they've discontinued it...? I checked two local Etude stores and even their website, and it's been discontinued. Why... So I switched to the Soon Jung Emulsion, haha... Actually, since this product and the Soon Jung Cica Balm worked so well for me and were so gentle, I developed a really positive image of Etude's skincare line. That's why I switched to the Soon Jung Emulsion! I'm really enjoying that one too. If I had to mention any downsides from when I used it, there was some pilling, and for my combination skin in winter, the oil-moisture balance wasn't quite right, so I needed the Cica Balm. If I had used it in summer, this cream alone would have been enough! 
Hwahae UserOily SkinSensitive SkinRecommendedFeb 19, 2018I have combination dehydrated and super sensitive skin! I received this as a mini kit sample from Etude a couple years ago. I tried it first and loved the texture right away. It applies smoothly without any stickiness and feels refreshing. After using it, I noticed a reduction in excess oil and sebum. It didn't completely eliminate them, but there was a slight decrease. As I mentioned, I have combination dehydrated sensitive skin, and many popular products have caused my skin to react badly. However, this one didn't irritate my skin at all - it was amazing! I finished the sample and immediately bought the full-size product. I've been repurchasing it ever since. Highly recommended for oily skin types! Those with dry skin might find it a bit drying. When I apply a generous amount before bed, I wake up feeling like my pores have slightly shrunk - it's truly wonderful! I think it would be great for students like me who are going through a phase of excessive sebum production. The scent is also lovely - not a harsh chemical smell, but more of a fresh, subtle herbal fragrance. The scent is so good! It's not overpowering, just a light, refreshing aroma. In summer, I like to keep this cream in the fridge and apply it cool to my skin - it seems to have a soothing effect too! This is my holy grail product! It's hard to find 20 characters worth of negatives... While it worked very well for my skin, results may vary for others! As mentioned above, results can vary, so I recommend trying a sample first like I did, and if it works for you, then purchase the full-size product. For those with dry skin, it might be slightly drying, so you may want to apply an additional cream. This cream is especially great when kept in the fridge during summer - applying it cool to your face provides an amazing soothing and cooling effect! I applied it generously after a hot summer sports day, and it was so calming and refreshing. If you try a sample and it works well for you, I recommend stocking up during sales! If you have any questions, please leave a comment right away! I'll respond as quickly as possible!
