Pros
It has a nice glide and great absorbency. When I applied it after getting heat rash, it sank in right away. I have sun allergy, and when I applied it on the itchy areas, it was fine.
Cons
The disappointing part is that I wish a large pump bottle was available. I want to use it generously.

Pros
Compared to the sticky texture, it absorbs well and is moisturizing Effective for dry, bumpy baby skin and eczema
Cons
I couldn't find any major downsides. It would be great if larger sizes were available
Tip
Apply it to baby's face when eczema flares up. It is very moisturizing and the moisturizing effect lasts a long time.

Pros
I was relieved to see that there were no allergens in the full ingredient list. Calamine reminds me of the pink ointment I used to apply as a child, which was said to be good for soothing the skin. So I already had confidence in the brand and product even before using it. It's not sticky and absorbs quickly, so I can apply it frequently without any discomfort. I like to use it like a night cream before bed, and it seems to help calm my skin as well. It's been helpful for general blemishes, not just inflammatory breakouts.
Cons
While it's a gel formula, it has a slightly runny texture, so if you squeeze out too much, it can be a bit inconvenient to use. I'd recommend squeezing out a small amount at a time.
Tip
This product could be good for those who find regular night creams or moisturizers too heavy. I used it before bed. It's also easy for kids to use. These days, kids tend to get flushed and irritated faces from outdoor play at preschool and the playground. After showering, applying this helps cool and soothe their skin, and the non-sticky texture makes it easy to apply.

Pros
Having a baby, I feel that soothing gel is an essential item in the summer! As their delicate skin is sensitive, their skin turns red even when they go out a little in the summer, and they need an immediate cooling effect. This product cools down quickly!! I'm very satisfied. Absorbency: It absorbs quickly and smoothly!!!! Even though it feels a bit sticky when applying, it absorbs immediately, and there's no heavy feeling at all, which I like. There are some granules, but they don't bother me. Spreadability: You don't need to worry much about the spreadability of a soothing gel, as it spreads well. Overall: It's good value for money, and the ingredients are good, so I plan to repurchase and use it again after finishing this one! I've tried various soothing gels, but this one has the best cooling effect.
Cons
There's nothing particularly disappointing. It seems to be a product that is faithful to the basics, but since the soothing gel doesn't have a moisturizing effect, if you want moisture, you should mix it with a cream.
Tip
Mixing it with a cream will boost the moisturizing power 👍🏻

Pros
My sensitive skin... the worst... Starting in March, I suddenly started getting something like milia on my right cheek. After going through a nomadic period trying toners, creams, and skin pads, I won a Hwahae event!!!!!! ... I've found my holy grail product for life. It has little fragrance, isn't sticky, absorbs quickly, and is truly a gem!!! I'm normally sensitive all over, not just my face, so I usually use baby products or carefully check for fragrances. I'm planning to gradually replace all the other brand products I'm currently using with botanical options from head to toe.
Cons
I don't have any! It's really great for my body and face It's a soothing gel, but I guess I could say it's a bit disappointing that it's used like a moisturizer... What should I do? The only downside is that it's expensive and it's hard to find discounted places or offline stores that sell it.
Tip
After using the skin pad, I now only apply this product on my face. I also plan to purchase the Cica cream since I heard it's good.

Pros
The transparent gel contains pink-colored calamine capsules. Once applied, the capsules are absorbed. It is fragrance-free, so children apply it without any aversion. When applied, it provides a cooling sensation, so it's great for soothing inflamed skin!
Cons
After application, there is a slight stickiness, but gently patting it in makes the stickiness disappear. You should apply it in small amounts and allow it to be absorbed!

Pros
As a moisturizing gel, it is incredibly hydrating. 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.
Cons
To 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.
Tip
You could skip the essence step in your skincare routine and just use this.

Pros
- Texture and Application The gel-type formula provides a refreshing feel. It is not too sticky or watery, so it doesn't drip much when applied. While used by adults, it is commonly used as a baby skincare product, making it easy to apply without dripping. The application feels thick at first, but it spreads quickly. It applies smoothly and the granules are absorbed quickly. - Packaging Many of these products come in pump-type packaging, but this one is in a tube. Both types have their pros and cons, but I think the tube type is more suitable for using the product completely. Since the formula is not too thick, you can easily squeeze out the remaining product by tapping the tube. - Moisturizing Power I usually think of soothing gels as something to be used with a lotion, as the skin can feel dry after using them. This is what I've heard from the time I was at the maternity ward with my first child up until now with my second. However, this product provides decent moisturization on its own. After application, it gets absorbed well and the skin doesn't feel tight over time. Of course, adding a lotion or cream on top would provide even better hydration. - Cooling Effect The product packaging states that it cools the skin by 4 degrees Celsius upon application. I was quite curious about this. While I couldn't measure the exact temperature, it does feel very cooling from the moment of application until it's absorbed. I think this would be great for treating heat rashes or sweating.
Cons
The absorption is a bit slow. And because of the slow absorption, there's a sticky (?) feeling during that time. It also gives a sense of having applied something thick on the skin... The price is not particularly cheap. While baby product brands are generally affordable, this soothing gel is not very inexpensive considering the volume.
Tip
Mixing it with an oil or a highly moisturizing cream can be good, as it would reduce the need for double application!

Pros
The Hwahae Trial Reviewer review The scent is mild~ I applied to try it out and am using it now, and it's great~ I used the Atoparm soothing gel before, but I wanted a lighter formula type of soothing gel, and this is just perfect. It suits my baby's skin well, and I've tried it on myself too, and it suits me well too. It absorbs quickly and is great.
Cons
There doesn't seem to be any particular downside~ The price? Products for babies do tend to be on the pricier side, after all.
