My acne even started to clear up!
ConsIt feels a bit drying for my dry skin type. After finishing the first bottle, I noticed the subsequent ones didn't seem to help with my acne as much as before.

That was when I was using this lotion! The effects were far superior to the serum from the same line. Personally, I found that when I applied the serum first and then the lotion, the effects weren't as good, but when I did lotion-serum, my acne would reduce by almost 70% the next day, and in about three days, it would be completely gone. This product was the only one that truly treated my acne. I have the utmost respect for it.
ConsEven though all my acne disappeared, afterwards I started experiencing severe dryness that was really difficult to manage, so I had to stop using this product. And then the acne came back with a vengeance! The ingredients also seem not so great, especially compared to the more gentle cosmetic products I've seen on Hwahae.
TipPersonally, I don't apply it all over my face anymore because the dryness is just too much, but if I get a small breakout, I'll use it as a spot treatment instead of a regular acne ointment from the pharmacy. It works much better than most ointments. The next day, my skin is so soothed!

Even though I have sensitive skin, it applies well without any redness. It absorbs really well too~~ I feel like my skin is becoming more supple!
ConsThe scent... the scent is a bit like a healthy scent...

I always have a lot of milia on my face and sometimes even have inflammatory acne ㅠㅠ I first learned about the Zymogen Houttuynia line through beauty bloggers about 2-3 years ago and started using it. After using this, the milia and inflammatory acne decreased a bit!! So I really used this product diligently for about 2 years, thinking 'so the products with a good reputation are really different.' In the beginning, I felt my skin really improving, and I personally found the fragrance okay.
ConsNow, I've made it a habit to search on Hwahae before buying any cosmetics, and thanks to that, I know what ingredients don't suit me. But back then, I just bought and tried whatever my favorite beauty YouTubers recommended... So I just kept using this Houttuynia line as well. At first, it seemed like the milia decreased a bit and it was good!! But it's not like the milia or inflammatory acne disappeared completely - it did improve a lot, though!! But during the time I was using this, my skin would suddenly get flipped upside down, become itchy, and I even went to a dermatologist a few times!! But since I've always had persistent milia and acne, even if not extremely severe, I didn't think much of it and used it for about 3 years... But then my skin kept getting severely flipped upside down, so I decided to 'completely change my basic skincare products.' And then, by chance, I checked the ingredients and found salicylic acid... Ah... Salicylic acid really doesn't suit my skin ㅠㅠㅠ It took a lot for me to realize this... But to think that ingredient was in here, I was really shocked... Anyway, I've completely changed it now and my skin has improved a lot ㅠㅠㅠ But since this product has such great reviews, it's best to check the ingredients carefully, use sample products, and then purchase (though I also bought and used the sample first because I liked it). And the amount is too little and the price is too high ㅠㅠㅠ

I used to have a lot of acne and it was very stressful, but after using this, it has really improved a lot. I highly recommend this to those with acne-prone and oily skin. It's oil-free and the thin, watery texture absorbs well into the skin.
ConsThere were no breakouts at all, but I wouldn't recommend this to those with dry skin as it can be a bit drying. Also, the packaging is quite heavy.

I'm so impressed! I'll definitely buy it again when I run out. The price is affordable considering the quantity and effectiveness.
ConsI'm not sure if it's because of dryness, but my face feels stiff after applying it. That's why I apply the essence and cream generously.

Cons1. It may be irritating to the skin when used initially. 2. The price may be burdensome for students to afford. 3. It can't really be called a lotion as it leaves the skin feeling dry after application.

My acne has significantly improved.
ConsIt's fine in the summer, but in the winter it gets extremely dry and cracked. It would likely be good for those with very oily skin.
TipIf you apply it one more time before bed on the areas with blemishes, they will disappear within a few days.

However, after using it for about a month, the acne on my chin that used to appear every morning has significantly reduced and doesn't flare up as much anymore. The texture is also smooth and the fragrance is not too overpowering, so it doesn't bother me. Using this product has really helped clear up my acne.
ConsI have combination skin with acne, and while this product did help with my acne, I found it to be quite drying. As a result, I've had to add another moisturizer to my routine to combat the dryness. This may be more of an issue for those with drier skin types.
TipI always make sure to apply a moisturizer on top of this product. Otherwise, it can feel quite drying and uncomfortable on my skin. If you have dry skin, I'd recommend keeping that in mind and potentially pairing this with an additional moisturizer.
