Pros
🎀 Event Winner Review 📌 Just like the soothing gel characteristics, it has an excellent soft and fluffy texture 📌 Provides an instantly calming effect upon application 📌 Retains moisture, giving a bouncy feel 📌 The best aspect is the immediate effect in soothing redness
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

Pros
As soon as I applied it, I felt a cooling sensation and it was great for reducing heat. I plan to keep it in the refrigerator and use it in the summer. Even after applying, my skin remained moisturized. I'm not sure about the soothing effects, but I was satisfied that my very sensitive and troubled skin didn't get any worse.
Cons
Since it's a gel type, if you apply too much, it can get sticky, so you need to apply the right amount and let it absorb properly.

Pros
This is a Hwahae Trial Reviewer's review: 1. I stored it at room temperature, and when I applied it after the kids' bath, they said it felt cool. 2. The ingredients are good. I've used the brand's sunscreen before, and when using it with the kids, the ingredients are especially important. 3. It seems to have a definite calming effect. When my child gets a bit of a heat rash-like reaction from the heat, applying this made it go down quickly.
Cons
It has a bit of a sticky feeling and is drier than expected. The calming effect is decent, but if you apply a small amount, it's fine, but if you misjudge the amount, it can feel a bit heavy. And since my kids have combination skin, it wasn't super moisturizing.
Tip
As another reviewer mentioned, mixing in some jojoba oil can help with the moisturizing aspect.

Pros
* It helps control redness and soothes overall acne:) * I don't think the price is too expensive by my standards!
Cons
* It says the temperature goes down to around 4 degrees, but I don't really feel a cooling sensation :( * It's extremely pilling. Just by touching my face after applying this, it pills up... It keeps pilling endlessly :( * It's drying. Even though it's a soothing gel, there's a dry residue left behind after applying. It's not moisturizing at all :( It's heavy but drying and sticky.
Tip
I mix in 2 drops of hemp seed oil when I use it, and I think they work well together!

Pros
I have sensitive dry skin While searching for a soothing gel due to skin tightness, I applied for the event as it said it can be used with my child. The existing soothing gel we used with my child was watery when applied, had some stickiness during absorption, and took time to absorb. After absorption, it was too dry. First of all, the fact that Botanee can be used with my child was good. It's not as watery as the existing soothing gel and has a nice weight to it. As instructed, when I applied it while massaging, it was good to do the massage and it was fun to melt the granules while applying. It has less tightness than the existing soothing gel.
Cons
The only downside would be that when I applied a single layer and covered the dry areas, it became cakey. My child really disliked me applying it, so the extra step of melting it in my hands before applying became cumbersome.

Pros
There is an 8-year-old boy who sometimes gets reddened or irritated skin when riding a bicycle or playing outside for a short time. In such cases, we used to put ice packs or wet towels on the affected areas. I've been looking for a product that is more comfortable, provides a cooling sensation, and soothes the skin. I happened to apply for an event and previously used the Botanical Therapy Sun Stick for my children, which I trusted because of the good ingredients. The calamine granules in the product seem to provide a quick soothing effect when applied, and it has excellent moisturizing properties. I've used it after cleansing and the moisturized feeling lasted for a long time. Even when the air conditioner was on for an extended period, my skin didn't feel tight. In the summer, I often skip using body lotion because it can feel sticky and I don't want to apply it all over my body. However, the lower legs, especially the shins, tend to get dry, so I would just apply it to those areas and lie down. The heels also become visible in the summer when wearing sandals, so I would gently massage that area as well. As expected, the dryness disappeared, and the moisturizing effect was maintained without being inconvenient. However, if applied too thickly, the absorption is slow, which can be uncomfortable, especially for children who may not stay still. I recommend applying a thin layer and reapplying frequently. The centella asiatica extract in the product has excellent skin-soothing properties, gently calming the delicate skin of the child and providing strong moisturization to protect and heal the skin. I trust this ability and continue to use the product. I prefer the tube-type packaging over jars or pump bottles as it is more hygienic and convenient for storage and portability. Cooling gel products are popular in the summer, but they can be inconvenient to carry during travel. The tube format of this product is easy to bring along without any leakage issues, which is an added advantage.
Cons
The gel-type formula can be slow to absorb and may feel slippery if rubbed continuously. For those who dislike the typical slick feeling of soothing gels, I would recommend a more fluid, lotion-type product instead.
Tip
I recommend storing the product in the refrigerator and using it that way. When I use skin pads, keeping them in the fridge provides a nice cooling sensation, which I really enjoy. For this product, since the child's main affected areas are the face and limbs, not the chest, I've been using it that way.

Pros
Hwahae Trial Reviewer here🧚🏻 My skin is sensitive, with closed comedones and inflammatory acne. I have a lot of closed comedones on my cheeks and a few inflammatory acne on my forehead and chin. After cleansing in the evening, I generously applied this product, and in the morning, my skin felt so smooth and supple. As this is a soothing gel, it can sometimes be drying, so I applied it once more when that happened. After using it for about 2 weeks, I will 10000% repurchase it. I can visibly see the closed comedones on my cheeks disappearing, and my skin has calmed down significantly. As the weather is getting warmer, I'll keep it in the fridge to use it chilled.
Cons
In the morning, my makeup gets pushed around, so I can't use it then ㅠㅠ Since it's a soothing gel, my makeup doesn't seem to apply well. In the morning, I just use a skin lotion and then do my makeup.
Tip
! Keep it in the fridge and use it chilled ! Gently massage it in with small circular motions ! Apply an additional layer after the first one has absorbed

Pros
Detailed review of the conversation gel after thorough use!! ✧٩(•́⌄•́๑)و ✧ *) First, my skin type is combination - oily T-zone, the rest is dry, lacking in internal moisture, and very prone to breakouts.. ^^.. Please keep this in mind! 1) Ingredients!!! Even children need to use it, so the most important thing must be the ingredients, right? True to its Botanic Therapy claim, it boasts very gentle ingredients. Normally, cooling gels are widely used to bring down fever in children, but this one can be used comfortably without worrying about the ingredients. It's said to be safe for use from newborns, so it should be great for adult skin without much irritation. There were no breakouts or itchiness after application! 2) Texture: It's a bit sticky when first applied, but it absorbs quickly. After absorbing, there's no heavy residue left. It leaves a soft, powdery finish, and the texture is indeed similar to a cooling gel, almost watery. I like the powdery finish, so this was great for me. Oh, and there are little granules in the product! It's said to contain 3,000ppm of calamine. 3) Effectiveness: True to its lightweight, fast-absorbing cooling gel nature, it should be great for using in the summer to feel refreshed. The soothing effect also seems quite good. If using on adult face, it would be nice to store it in the fridge and use it chilled. The 160ml size also seems like it will last a while. After using it, the advantages are quite clear. This is a 2-week review, and I plan to continue using it and add more feedback over time. So far, it seems like a really good product!!!! Cooling gels are a must in the summer.. What do you think of this calamine soothing gel? ʕ·ᴥ·ʔ
Cons
While it has many advantages, hmm, how should I put it!!!! The incredible advantages are something I haven't discovered yet. ㅠㅠ Since most soothing gels are gentle and have good ingredients, this one is no exception. However, it's definitely not a product that is outclassed by other products. Anyway, I'll use it a bit more and come back with a detailed additional review 💫

Pros
❤Hwahae Trial Reviewer Review❤ I have true sensitive dry skin. Throughout my life, I have been unable to use toners and have only been using sunscreen and baby cleansers. 🍎 Advantage 1. It has a soothing effect. After using a cleansing product the night before, my sister's skin became irritated when she used a different product, but I felt the redness improve the next day after using this product. Advantage 2. Moisturizing. I have extremely dry skin, but these days I just apply this product and top it with an oil, and my skin does not feel dry or tight. Advantage 3. Fragrance-free. These days, many people only use fragrance-free products, and I am also a consumer who absolutely will not purchase or use products with fragrance, so this is a great feature.
Cons
🍇1. Stickiness. While it is understandable for a soothing product to have some stickiness, it can be inconvenient when it gets on the bedding. 🍈2. Slipperiness. I'm not sure if it's just me, but there is a slight slipperiness when using this as a base before makeup.
Tip
For those with extremely dry skin, try lightly coating this product with an oil on top. It works great!🍋

Pros
**Hwahae Trial Reviewer Review Although I wanted to write a positive review since I received the product for free, the truth is that the product doesn't seem to be very well-made. The tube format was good for hygienic use, though.
Cons
-Excessively sticky -The calamine particles don't easily disappear, making it unsuitable for the face -Slides off too easily, so adults who wear sunscreen or makeup during the day cannot use it. -Did not feel any calming or moisturizing effects.
Tip
The product quality is disappointing and below expectations. The product seems to need a reformulation. It may only be suitable for children, but even then, the lack of soothing and moisturizing effects makes me unsure of who would benefit from using it.
