My baby's skin was much calmer.
ConsIt was difficult to apply the particles It was hard because my baby doesn't like having lotion applied.
TipI crushed(?) the particles beforehand and applied them.

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~^^

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.
ConsWhile 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.
TipThis 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.

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

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!
ConsAfter 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!

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.ProsThe ingredients are gentle enough to use on babies, so I applied the product every morning and evening after receiving it as a Hwahae Trial Reviewer, and I didn't have a single blemish. 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!

It is very suitable for the basic purpose of a soothing gel, which is to reduce heat. These days, it gets very hot during the day, and when my face gets hot, as soon as I come home and wash my face and apply it, the cooling effect is great👍 2. For a soothing gel, it has a bit more of a textured feel? So it's less drying than other soothing gels! The calamine granules burst with a popping sensation, and it seems to have a soothing effect as well...! 3. As it gets hotter, my atopic baby's condition worsens, so when I apply this cool and gentle soothing & moisturizing gel, it seems to provide some relief~ The calamine ingredient seems to significantly reduce the itchiness, whether it's just my imagination or not! 4. It absorbs right away! That's why I like it the most, because there's no stickiness!! Among the soothing gels I've tried, this is the best.
ConsThere's nothing particularly bad, but if you're going to use it as a moisturizer, it may not exceed the limits of a soothing gel ㅎㅎ It has good moisturizing power for a soothing gel, but it may be too much for dry skin if used alone~
TipIf you're going to use it as a summer moisturizer, I'd recommend using it together with a cream👍

The soothing gel from the botanical therapy brand was my first time using it, and the ingredients are great, so I used it with my daughter. Now she applies it herself without me having to do it. Just as described in the product details, it has a calming effect and helps reduce redness. It also suits my skin perfectly. The soothing gel is a must-have for the summer~~ I felt so refreshed and really enjoyed it.
ConsThe only downside is that I couldn't use it for more than about a week, so I couldn't find any issues. But I think this will be great for me throughout the summer.

I think it would be great for cooling and soothing irritated skin, especially in the summer. The ingredients are also good, so it can be used by the whole family, including pregnant women, children, and dads. I applied it to my 4-year-old child and there was no irritation at all, and the child liked the cooling sensation. I brought the small soothing gel sample that came with it when I went on a trip recently. It was effective in soothing my skin that was heated up by the sun at the outdoor pool and the beach. Dad, mom, and the child all used the small sample, but it wasn't enough. I regretted not bringing the full-size product!!
ConsThe absorption is not as quick as regular lotions. So there is some stickiness left behind, but this seems to be the case with all soothing gels, not just this product. So this wasn't a unique downside of this product. When using soothing gels, I've been keeping in mind that I need to allow some time for absorption.
TipOn days when your skin feels heated, putting it in the cool refrigerator and using it like a cold pack is great!!! It's refreshing and soothing even when just applied normally :) I think this will be an essential item for the upcoming summer season.
