Keeping it in the fridge and applying a thick layer when my skin is sensitive can quickly calm it down. As it has less tightness than other soothing gels, I think it would be good to use on its own during the summer. When the Botanical Therapy Calamine Soothing Gel feels a bit lacking in moisture, applying a cream once more to the cheek or dry areas seems to help maintain the hydration.
ConsFor the bumpy areas on my chin, it does provide some soothing, but the condition doesn't improve much. ㅠㅜ It seems to be more effective for sensitive skin calming than acne-prone areas.
TipWhen using it alone feels insufficient, mixing in a moisturizing cream or lotion can help maintain the hydration much longer~^^

Cons📌 Just like other soothing gels, it evaporates over time 📌 Becomes dry over time..ㅠㅠ 📌 Causes pilling when used with makeup
Tip😉 Typically used for mid-makeup touch-ups 😉 While it doesn't control redness well, I mix it with sunscreen for daily use

It seems better than most essences. When I only use an essence, I sometimes feel a tightness, but this gel has such great moisture that when I apply it, it seeps in and leaves a supple feeling. Eventually, it gets fully absorbed, leaving my skin soft and smooth. I've tried other brands' moisturizing gels too, but as a dry-skinned person and for my kids, they were simply not enough, so I decided not to use moisturizing gels anymore. But after trying this one, I think it's better to use this instead of an essence. The fragrance-free formula is not irritating, and the ingredients are gentle, which I really appreciate. It says the temperature drops by 4 degrees Celsius when you apply it, and when you gently fan your face after applying, you really do feel a cooling sensation. In the strong summer sunlight, this cooling effect would be great for soothing the skin.
ConsTo be completely honest, I don't really have any complaints... It suits my skin well, and as a dry-skinned person, I don't feel dry at all when I just use this, so it seems to function well as a moisturizing gel.
TipYou could skip the essence step in your skincare routine and just use this.

While it's said to lower skin temperature by a few degrees, I didn't notice that effect too much, but I definitely felt a soothing and moisturizing effect. The texture is also moist and not overly sticky, so I can understand why many mothers apply it to their babies.
ConsI have a dry, dehydrated skin type. In my case, since it's summer now, after cleansing and wiping off my toner, I immediately apply this gel, but over time, I feel a slight dryness. I think it would be fine if I apply a separate lotion, cream, or ampoule afterwards.
TipSince this is a gel type, if your skin is not dry, it seems better to apply the gel right after the skin toner, rather than after a skin lotion. This way, it absorbs better and feels more comfortable on the skin!

My skin feels hydrated and refreshed, which I really like. For my acne-prone skin during puberty, I was using aloe but it only made it worse. But after using this product, the breakouts have subsided. I can really feel the cooling sensation and my skin is fully quenched with moisture. Everyone in my family, including my young daughter, has been using it without any issues. This seems to be a product that the whole family can use. I feel like my skin temperature goes down when I use it in the summer~
ConsThere's a slight stickiness after applying it all over. And while it's very moisturizing, as a dry-skinned person, I still need to apply something on top of it.
TipIf you apply it before the cream, your skin will definitely feel hydrated and won't feel tight at all

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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.ProsMy daughter and I, both with atopic skin, used this product together. When I first encountered the product, I thought it would be pink in color due to the name 'Calamine', but it was a transparent soothing gel. Both my daughter and I frequently need moisture supply for our sensitive skin, and we can't use just anything, but this product suited us both very well without any adverse reactions. And while using it, my daughter had a heat rash on her back, so I applied it, and she said it didn't sting at all, and the heat rash went away. The red spots that used to appear when it's hot and sweaty have also decreased. I recommend this product.
ConsThe feeling isn't immediately a 'whoosh' sensation, but it's better to apply it little by little. I was a bit surprised when I squeezed it out and applied it all at once, as it takes time to be absorbed.
TipApply it little by little and reapply. It worked well when I applied it to the heat rash.

ConsThe slightly disappointing part is that maybe I applied too much? Since the spreadability is good, haha There's a slight stickiness at the end, but It's not so sticky and stuffy that I would complain about it
TipI've been applying it all over my body After taking a warm shower, I apply it I haven't tried applying it midway through the day yet, so ㅠㅠ I'm planning to use it when I go out in the summer I think it will be amazing Also, When I do a massage at home and my skin feels heated, applying it feels great

Moreover, as it is a soothing gel that can be used from newborns, it's great for the whole family to use together. I've already applied it to my baby who was getting heat rashes, and the rashes seem to be reducing, possibly due to the cooling effect. Compared to other soothing gels, it also has less stickiness, which I like.
ConsI haven't found any downsides yet~ It's great to use.

You can consider it almost non-existent. When applied, it feels incredibly refreshing and invigorating. Applying it frequently in the summer would likely have a soothing effect on the skin. It has transparent gel-type with pink beads inside. It spreads well and has good moisture content. There is no oily residue. My daughter tried it and said she liked it.
ConsThere is a slightly sticky feeling, but it goes away within 1-2 minutes after application. There are no major drawbacks.
