The texture is like a mix of skin and lotion, and the fragrance is also luxurious. On the first day, I tested it by washing my face and applying this product alone, and I felt dryness (dry skin) about 50 minutes later. However, after searching online, I found that this is not just a regular essence, but a boosting first essence that helps replenish the moisture lost after cleansing and allows the next skincare products to be better absorbed. After using it for about a week, I noticed that my makeup applied better and lasted longer, and the flakiness around my nose was reduced, even in the colder weather. The product also contains ingredients for wrinkle improvement and whitening, and the volume is generous, so it's very satisfactory. (The photo below is taken 5 hours after applying makeup.) As mentioned earlier, this is a boosting first essence that helps other products be better absorbed. So if you use this alone without other moisturizing products, it may feel drying, and your makeup may not apply well. You'll need to apply other moisturizing products as well. And I'm not sure about the wrinkle improvement effect, as I've only used it for a short period. You'll need to use it for a longer time to see the results. My basic skincare routine for dry skin in the cold and dry winter: Water cleansing -> Signature first essence -> Watery toner -> Light moisturizer -> Rich cream -> Rich sunscreen = 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinDec 3, 2017
#After using it for about a week, here is the Hwahae Trial Reviewer's review# My skin is sad and has lost its elasticity due to acne. And my T-zone is oily, while my U-zone is dry. These days, as I work in an office where the heater is blasting, I feel even more dryness. 1. Moisturizing It's not just a light, simple moisturizing, but it maintains moisture while being moisturizing, you know? I don't really like heavy moisturizers. But the Signature First Essence is not heavy, and when I apply it, it absorbs well into the skin, leaving a moisturizing sensation. 2. Absorbs well into the skin and gives a radiant glow. Moisturizers are often heavy in texture and don't absorb immediately, but this one absorbs well into the skin. And my skin looks radiant. ㅎㅎ 3. Luxurious bottle design The bottle is really luxurious. When I first received it, I thought 'Wow, it's so luxurious and pretty.' It looks so beautiful on my vanity. 1. Artificial fragrance While others say the floral or fruity scent is good, as I generally use fragrance-free cosmetics, this scent feels a bit artificial to me and I had a slight aversion to it. If the scent was more subtle, it would have been better. 2. Efficacy of whitening and wrinkle improvement functional cosmetics? This is not so much a drawback, but since I've only used it for about a week, I haven't really noticed the effects. While it does provide good moisturizing, I'm not sure if the whitening and wrinkle improvement effects will show up over time, but I'm not sure yet. In the office where the heater is blasting, my U-zone feels dry, so I apply a little extra, and it seems to replenish the moisture, which is good. - Hwahae UserDry SkinSensitive SkinNov 27, 2017
★Hwahae Trial Reviewer Evaluation I thought the essence would be a liquid formulation, but it's actually a creamy, viscous texture. It applies smoothly and feels moisturizing, so it seems like the perfect product for dry skin. It seems great to use as the first step in a skincare routine, leaving the skin feeling refreshed. I'll need to use it a bit longer to see the effects on whitening and wrinkle improvement. I think you could use it like a toner by applying it to a cotton pad, which would allow for a clean and moisturizing application. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinApr 24, 2017
I really wanted to review the product thoroughly, so I received the product on the 11th and used it without missing a day for almost 2 weeks now~ Even with just one use, I didn't feel any dryness at all, and on those really annoying days, I would just wipe it off and apply this product before going to bed, and I never woke up feeling like my face was stiff or anything! Also, after using it consistently, my skin became so soft and smooth, and my skin texture improved a lot! When I apply this product at night, wake up, and then wash my face in the morning, my face feels so soft that I can't stop touching it haha The scent wasn't my style, and I'm not sure about the advertised effects of wrinkle improvement and whitening, as I didn't see any noticeable results ㅠ And since the product comes in a heavy glass container, I definitely won't be able to take it with me when I travel ㅜㅅㅜ When I used the Age 20's cotton pads that came with it and applied the product generously, it seemed to work even better! - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinApr 23, 2017
♡Hwahae Trial Reviewer♡ My skin type is sensitive and oily. As soon as I received it, I washed my face and applied it to my hands. The texture is close to a lotion, but the spreadability is closer to an essence. The absorption is also excellent. It doesn't absorb right away, but if you pat it in after applying it all over, the absorption is complete. There is no greasy feeling, so it feels refreshing. As an oily-skinned person, I'm pleased that it's moisturizing without the oiliness. It stays moisturized for quite a long time. Even if I only used this for a day's care, there was no dry feeling. It's refreshing enough that I can apply something else on top without any burden. The best part was that the sebum plugs around my nose and under my lower lip decreased. While the big effects are not yet visible after 2 weeks of use, it has worked well without major breakouts. The included cotton pads have different sides for exfoliating and skincare. They are very thick, so they are easy to hold when exfoliating. They also seem good for removing makeup. However, this may also be irritating to me, as I felt a bit itchy after using them. The disappointing part was the fragrance. The scent was sweet and nice when I opened the lid, but when I applied it, the damp peach scent was a bit unpleasant, though it dissipates quickly. The whitening and wrinkle improvement effects cannot be achieved in 2 weeks, so I'll have to use it longer. As a fermented product, it seems that breakouts vary by individual. The next day, 2 pimples popped up, but the sebum plugs gradually decreased and the pimples subsided quickly. I would recommend this to all skin types. If it's not enough, you can layer more for better hydration. After cleansing, I generously apply it to my hands. Then I use a steam towel several times, follow with a cold water patting, and apply it using a cotton pad, patting it in. In the evenings when I don't use a cream, I do it this way. It's a bit of a hassle, but my skin does seem to change a bit the next day.
