I mix a drop with my cream when applying, and the hydration is remarkable. Especially in the evening, I used to need additional products after my skincare routine, but with this oil, my skin feels great until morning. It doesn't feel like you're applying an oil at all. There's no greasy residue. With other oils, I sometimes got small bumps, but this one keeps my skin comfortable and blemish-free. I particularly love how quickly it absorbs. There's no notable scent, and the container is lightweight and convenient since it's not glass.
ConsThere's nothing particularly disappointing about it. Twenty characters is too short to express that!
TipTry mixing it with your moisturizer if it lacks richness.

I usually avoid oils because they don't suit me, but this product seemed to solve my deep dryness issues without causing an oil explosion later. I'm definitely considering repurchasing! It didn't cause any blemishes, and my makeup didn't separate, making it convenient to use. Plus, it felt like it coated my face without being sticky, so I could apply it comfortably morning and night. Three-point summary: 1. Lightweight 2. Doesn't interfere with makeup 3. Great for oily skin
ConsAs many others have mentioned, the price point is a bit steep. The quantity isn't particularly generous either. You need to apply a generous amount to get that skin-coating effect, otherwise it feels insufficient. Personally, I'd still recommend this oil for those with oily skin as it's truly excellent. Three-point summary: 1. Expensive 2. Not enough product 3. No other significant downsides
TipWhile it's not exactly a pro tip, I used to only apply oil products at night. However, this product can be applied in the morning without feeling sticky, and my makeup never separated. It's perfect for those with oily skin who struggle with makeup separation!

It's not sticky 2. Being an oil, it absorbs well 3. It doesn't sit on the skin and absorbs quickly 4. Compared to other oils, it doesn't feel overly rich, making it comfortable to use! After completing my skincare routine, I warm the oil in my hands and apply it to my face. It's hard to describe, but it doesn't leave my skin looking greasy. Instead, it gives my complexion a plump, hydrated appearance with a beautiful glow! The best part is that while other oils can feel heavy on dry winter skin, this one, being plant-based, absorbs quickly and gives a moisturized radiance without feeling burdensome.
ConsWhile there aren't many downsides, here are a couple: 1. It's on the pricier side, which might make repurchasing a bit challenging. 2. I didn't notice any particular effect on blemishes. In fact, I recently had a skin issue and wondered if it might have been caused by this product. Of course, it could just be a coincidence or due to other bodily changes.
TipI usually mix face oils with my moisturizer, but this one is so light that it's great to apply on its own!

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.ProsThe Hwahae Testers review: • Skin type: Extremely dry, acne-prone, super sensitive skin • The packaging is very sleek • I thought two or three drops with toner wouldn't be enough, so I used about 5-6 drops. There was absolutely no irritation, and it's completely fragrance-free, which I really appreciated. • Even with 5-6 drops, it absorbs well when patted in, without leaving an overly greasy feeling. It feels fresh in the morning and doesn't leave residue on pillows or hair. • This would be great for spring and fall seasons
Cons• For the first three days, I liked that it wasn't too oily. However, maybe because the weather has been so dry lately... The fact that it's an 'oil that doesn't feel like oil' became both its strength and weakness. I used it in a nighttime routine of 'toner → moisturizer → oil'. The first three days seemed fine and not too heavy, but from about the fourth day, after absorbing the oil, my skin would become extremely dry again within three minutes, so I had to apply more cream. As they say, human desires are endless... While its lightweight feel was its greatest advantage, it also meant my skin dried out quickly. • It has no effect on blemishes Of course, it's not meant to have that function, but it neither worsens nor improves small bumps or inflammatory acne.
Tip• To be honest, I'd like to give it a 3.5 rating • It might work well when mixing a drop or two with foundation (matte type)

First off, I was thrilled with how quickly it absorbed into my skin. As someone with oily skin, I was worried that using an oil might make my skin look even greasier, but it absorbed beautifully without any greasy feeling at all - just pure hydration. The dropper made it super easy to control the amount I used, so I could apply just the right amount. I used it in my routine after toner and before emulsion, and it didn't interfere with the application of my emulsion at all. Even when I put on makeup, despite the dry winter weather, my skin looked prettier than usual!
ConsI was chosen as one of The Hwahae Testers, but when I received the product, I was disappointed by how small the amount was compared to what I expected. It felt like poor value for money. After switching to this oil, I had to change my cleansing foam, and for some reason, my skin completely freaked out. I even started getting closed comedones and blemishes that I never had before! I'll update my review after using it a bit longer to see if things improve.
TipWhile applying the oil on its own was nice, I found that mixing it with my cleansing foam or emulsion worked really well too, without feeling heavy on the skin.

The Hwahae Testers here! This oil's hydration was incredible! It didn't leave my skin feeling greasy at all. Even after sleeping, the moisturizing effect seemed to last. The instructions say to apply two drops on your face, and now I understand why. Two drops were more than enough! And as you know, oils aren't just for your face - they work wonders on your body too. With winter here, it made my dry skin feel silky smooth! There's barely any scent, which is perfect for someone like me who doesn't like fragranced products. It's also completely clear with no color.
ConsWell, as expected... I have sensitive skin. They say natural plant-based oils can cause allergic reactions, and it turns out I'm one of those people! The morning after I first applied it, I woke up with blemishes all over my temples and cheeks. I skipped using it that day, but tried again the next day just in case. And well... my face turned into an active volcano. It seems like other people didn't have this issue...
TipOverall, it feels very clean and not heavy on the skin. It doesn't seem to sit on top of the skin either. However, please make sure to check if you have any allergic reactions! It's crucial to test it before committing to a purchase.

If you tend to get dead skin cells but find oils too heavy, this product might be perfect for you! It's absolutely not greasy at all. When applied as the final step in your skincare routine, it feels like it creates a protective layer, sealing in all the products you've applied before. You'll notice the difference even when washing your face the next morning. I loved that it doesn't feel slippery like other oils. I used 4 drops in the evening, warming it between my hands before pressing it into my face. When you first apply it, your face doesn't look shiny or oily like with other oils. Instead, it gives you that post-facial glow. The tight feeling I used to wake up with in winter has disappeared. Though I've only used it for 2 weeks, there's a noticeable difference in my skin's hydration and fewer dry patches the next day compared to before. I've only used about 1/10 of the product with 4 drops each time. I absolutely don't think the price is expensive for what you get.
ConsIt might be a bit challenging for those with oily skin. I wouldn't recommend it for those who typically use oil-free products.
TipI usually prefer a matte finish when I do my makeup. Because of this, I would notice dead skin cells appearing as the day went on. So, my nighttime routine used to be: cleansing, applying a generous amount of aloe gel for 7 minutes before wiping it off, then using a hydrating serum and moisturizer. When I won this product in an event, I added it as the final step in my routine. And wow! My skin, which I prepped at 7 AM, didn't show a single flake of dead skin even by the time I got off work. Usually, even with my regular skincare, I'd see some flaking, but not anymore. For those with combination dehydrated skin, make sure to layer on plenty of hydration before sealing it all in with this oil!

A little goes a long way - it adheres to the skin perfectly! I didn't experience any stickiness, heaviness, or discomfort at all. I think it'll be a great addition to my skincare routine from late October to late March, complementing my toner and moisturizer combo. It didn't cause any oiliness during makeup application either. Usually, face oils can make my skin flush momentarily, but this product didn't do that. It feels very gentle on the skin.
ConsThere wasn't really anything to complain about... I feel like I've found the perfect oil for my skin, which is fantastic.
TipI use about 2-3 layers of toner, then apply two drops of oil to lock in the absorbed toner. Followed by a lightweight moisturizer, this combination provides long-lasting hydration!

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.ProsDespite being an oil, I loved how incredibly lightweight and fluid it is, applying without any stickiness or heaviness. As a first-time oil user, I was pleasantly surprised that it doesn't float on the skin like typical oils. It's not greasy at all, but rather incredibly light with excellent absorption. The formula is clean, free from problematic ingredients, and flows like water, making it perfect for use with the dropper bottle right to the last drop. Pros: Fragrance-free, water-light oil texture.
ConsAfter about two days of use, I noticed a mild rash developing on my skin. At first, I thought it was due to something else and continued using it. However, when the rash-like symptoms persisted, I stopped using it for a few days, and the issue quickly subsided. It's surprising because I don't usually have sensitive skin, and this product is well-liked by many. I wouldn't recommend this to those with oily skin or those who don't typically use oils in their skincare routine.

Rather than feeling like it's just sitting on the surface, 'it absorbs well and doesn't wipe off'. I love how it's moisturizing without feeling heavy or like you've applied anything!!! Despite being an oil, it's not as greasy as others. True to its name, it's a fluid! The almost water-like texture gives a 'perfect glow' without any shine. It's so innovative compared to other oils I've tried! It's groundbreaking! As someone with dry skin, I think even those with oily skin can use this without worrying about excess oil! If you've wanted to try an oil but were concerned about shine, this Oliveyoung Fluid Oil might be perfect for maintaining 'adequately glowy and hydrated' skin. Even for dry skin like mine that can get oily by evening, this oil seems to strike just the right balance!! On days I wore makeup after applying this, my makeup stayed put and didn't separate even after hours! It seems to prove its 'hydrating power'! It's quite moisturizing! Even 10 hours after first use, there was no dryness, just the same level of hydration!! It doesn't just moisturize the surface, but deep down too. My skin feels like it's full of hydration!! (Of course, I applied this after my full skincare routine!) Being 'fragrance-free' is great as it doesn't irritate my senses. 100% squalane! The 'ingredients are truly excellent', so there's no worry for skin health. I didn't experience any blemishes or skin irritation. The dropper bottle makes it 'easy to control the amount', and it looks luxurious and pretty. (Isn't the rabbit on the box adorable?)
ConsThe dropper can be slippery when trying to apply it as the last step of skincare. Sometimes you need to hold it with your other hand, which can be a bit inconvenient. (Everything else is great, this is why it's 4 stars..) I thought the bottle was glass, but it's plastic! It would have been nicer if it were glass. The price might be a bit high for those in their teens and twenties! It's not extremely moisturizing. (For very dry skin, you might want to use three drops at night or apply a soothing gel or cream for better hydration.)
TipI'm posting this review after using the amount shown in the second photo! (Used for a week, it wasn't completely full.) For reference, I applied essence, toner, eye cream, emulsion, cream, then the 'Oliveyoung Fluid Oil' in that order! (One drop, two drops, or three drops depending on what my skin needs!) (I didn't upload a photo of it applied on my face because it doesn't show well on phone camera!) As mentioned above, I like that it gives a 'perfect' glow rather than being greasy. Avoid applying around the eyes. Maybe it's because I've been using my eyes a lot lately, but like with sunscreen, it can make my eyes sting and feel uncomfortable! I didn't expect to be selected for The Hwahae Testers, but I'm glad I was chosen. I discovered a great product that's good for my skin, learned about squalane for the first time (it's in quite a few of my cosmetics, I found out), and as someone who enjoys writing, I got to write a detailed cosmetic review!! It's more than just killing two birds with one stone. It's like killing five birds with one stone!! Everyone should apply for The Hwahae Testers!! (Thank you so much!!)
