Great value for money with a generous amount at an affordable price. It absorbs quickly even when applied liberally, making it perfect for worry-free use. The oil and moisture balance feels a bit off. One application seems insufficient. I apply it twice. After application, it fills in uneven skin texture nicely. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinFeb 8, 2023
It's the best for gently replenishing hydration. When my skin is acting up and I'm hesitant to apply anything, just layering this on thickly makes a big difference. The generous amount means you can slather it on your arms and legs when feeling dry, and it leaves you feeling moisturized. For me, this is definitely a must-have item that I always keep stocked up. There's barely any (or in my experience, absolutely no) rich feeling to it, so it's not enough to serve as a moisturizer on its own. It absorbs slowly, and if you apply too much, it doesn't sink in well. You'll need to adjust the amount you use for morning and evening applications. For best results, apply a thick layer after your nightly skincare routine, using it like a sleeping mask. You'll wake up to skin that feels deeply hydrated. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinJul 18, 2021
#Late20s #CombinationDehydratedSkin #Blemishes This is truly a basic essential in skincare. It doesn't cause any blemishes, and while it doesn't have any extraordinary effects, it's hard to find a product that can replace this one. 1. I highly recommend it if you're looking to add hydration without much oil. 2. It absorbs quickly without any stickiness or greasiness. 3. It's great value for money with its large size. As it's literally just hydration with almost no oil, those with dry skin might find it uncomfortable to use. Even with my combination dehydrated skin, I occasionally feel dryness. It's not enough to use alone just for hydration. While you'd miss it if you didn't have it, it's a product you could replace if you found an alternative. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinMay 16, 2020
The generous amount is perfect for liberal application. It's a gel-type moisturizer packed with hydration that glides on smoothly. I used it as a hydrating mask before bed, which worked well. The slightly translucent white packaging matches the product inside, giving the impression of a moisture-rich gel just from looking at it. The lid opens easily and smoothly. While it's incredibly hydrating, it takes a while to absorb. After absorption, there's a slightly sticky feeling and it seems to bring out some oiliness. I avoid using it in the morning. It feels a bit like it's sitting on top of the skin. As I have super sensitive skin, it occasionally causes some redness. I'm planning to try a different product next time. I use it as a hydrating mask before bed. Applying it generously and washing off any slight stickiness in the morning works well for me. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinJul 14, 2019
Hydration power is excellent. If you apply thin layers multiple times, it absorbs well and provides great moisture While it claims to be full of hydration, it's disappointing that there's also an oily feeling along with the moisture - Hwahae UserDry SkinOct 22, 2018
1. The product has a nice balance of richness, leaving a refreshing finish. It's great for morning skincare routines! 2. Being a lightweight gel texture, it's easy to spread and apply evenly! 3. The amount you get for the price is incredible! It seems to last forever, no matter how much you use. 1. For nighttime care, it lacks sufficient hydration and richness. As someone with dry skin, I woke up with tight-feeling skin after using it at night. 2. This product is too light to use on its own. You definitely need to pair it with a super rich, hydrating cream! It's really more of an essence than a moisturizer! 3. About 5 minutes after application, it feels like your skin is drying out! It's as if the product is evaporating. It seems to sit on top of the skin without absorbing well, which makes me reluctant to use it regularly. Try storing it in the refrigerator and applying it cold when you've popped a blemish or your skin is red from irritation. The cool gel helps bring down skin temperature and calms inflammation! - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinOct 17, 2018
Currently, I have sensitive combination skin. After using random skincare products for a while, my oil and moisture balance was off. In summer, my skin would become super oily, and in winter, extremely dry! Plus, I have redness-prone skin that tends to heat up. So in summer, I prefer lightweight products that provide ample hydration and cool down the skin. The Hatomugi Gel Essence was perfect for this! The texture itself is watery and packed with moisture, and I loved how quickly it absorbed into my skin. When my skin felt hot, applying it straight from the fridge was great for cooling down. Another bonus is its large size at an affordable price! While it's bursting with hydration, it's a bit low on richness. So when the cold winds start blowing and your skin begins to dry out, this product alone might not be enough! It might be best to either apply multiple layers or use it alongside a product that can balance out the oil levels. I'm not a fan of the stickiness left behind after removing a sheet mask, but applying the Hatomugi Gel Essence afterwards leaves my skin feeling comfortably moisturized! - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSep 1, 2018
I kept getting small blemishes, so I thought it might be due to dryness. Luckily, this product just arrived at Olive Young, so I decided to give it a try. The good points are: 1. Hydration! After applying, there's no deep dryness, and my skin feels somewhat smoother. Even long after application, there's no dry feeling at all, and my skin still feels deeply moisturized. 2. The texture is just right. Since it's summer, I've been avoiding heavy creams, but this one isn't too heavy and spreads lightly on the face. It's suitable for all seasons, but perfect for summer. It has a pleasant gel-like texture... I personally really love this formulation. 3. Great value for money! Usually, this amount would cost over $30, but this one is really affordable and performs well. I'll probably buy it again next time at this price point. 1. It's a bit oily. The information I found said it provides moisture without oiliness, but honestly, while it does hydrate, there is some oiliness. After applying and letting it absorb, it feels like there's a slight oil film on the skin. That's the only downside... Oh, in my case, maybe because of the oiliness, I did get some small blemishes on my nose, but that can vary from person to person! - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinJun 4, 2018
Could work well as an overnight mask. Large size at a budget-friendly price (purchased for 9,600 won) It leaves a sticky residue and after the initial hydration, it feels oily. Personally, I'm not a fan - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinMar 25, 2018
It applies smoothly with a moisturizing feel, and being a gel type, it absorbs quickly. Seems like it would be great to use when your skin needs a hydration boost. Nothing particularly bad, but if I had to pick something, it feels like it's mostly just hydration without much oil, so the moisture might evaporate quickly.
