Here's my review after using about half the bottle. The texture looks like thin mucus, but it feels heavy like oil when applied. It spreads easily, but it feels like it's creating a heavy layer, so even with my dry skin, I can't use it in summer. The ingredients seem focused on hydration. It's great to use before bed during seasonal changes or in winter. It's often on sale, making it an affordable ampoule option. I'm satisfied as it hasn't caused any irritation or blemishes.
ConsThe fragrance is quite strong. The intense scent makes it off-putting, so I don't reach for it often.

First off, I have combination dehydrated skin. As the seasons changed, I felt like my skin lacked hydration even after applying ampoules and creams. That's when I started using this ampoule, and I could feel it protecting my skin. It doesn't feel too heavy either. Since I've been using this product, the deep dryness in my face has disappeared.
ConsThe scent is a bit disappointing. When I first smelled it, there was an artificial fragrance that made me wonder if it might not be good for my skin. However, I'm still using it because it's effective. You get used to it after a while.
TipIn my routine, I apply this ampoule and a rich emulsion in the morning. In the evening, I use a hyaluronic acid ampoule followed by a hydrating moisturizer. I feel like my skin has become firmer since I started using it. I definitely recommend it!

I used to have oily skin, but now it's combination dehydrated. Sometimes it gets so dry that foundation won't even stick. This essence isn't heavy, yet it keeps my skin moisturized for a long time and even tackles deep dryness. For extra dry areas or around the eyes, applying a second layer really boosts the hydration. Although I usually prefer fragrance-free products, I'm satisfied with this one. I'll definitely repurchase it.
ConsThe texture might be a bit sticky for some, which could be hit or miss, but it wasn't an issue for me.
TipI apply the ampoule twice, then immediately layer on a light oil thinly, followed by a sheet mask. This is my go-to routine when my skin's oil and moisture balance is out of whack.

It gives a nice glow without feeling sticky. After application, my face doesn't feel tight at all! As you can see in the photo, when I bought one ampoule, they also included a toner and cream as gratis.
ConsIn my opinion, the scent was a bit like perfume. The fragrance is somewhat disappointing.

Your skin doesn't feel parched, and the product leaves a lasting residual feeling (which could be both a pro and a con?). I didn't experience any blemishes.
ConsIt doesn't seem to address deep dryness at all. Despite its name 'Deep Sea Waterful', it doesn't feel watery. To put it positively, it's an extremely rich and thick serum that leaves a residual feeling. It's not the texture I prefer. Also, the fragrance lingers quite a bit, unfortunately.
TipIf you have very dry skin, it's great to use as a coating layer after thoroughly hydrating your skin's deeper layers.

Even a small amount instantly hydrates the skin
ConsThe fragrance is too strong. That's the only downside.
TipJust use a tiny amount, about the size of your fingernail

It absorbs well and gives a nice, firm feeling to the skin. I really like that. My skin tends to get very dry and flaky in winter, but after using this ampoule, I've noticed significantly less dead skin cells. While many people mention a strong scent, I personally didn't find it overpowering.
ConsFor an ampoule, it's a bit on the watery side, so it seems to run out quickly. I'm also slightly disappointed with the ingredients.

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.ProsThis product has a slightly viscous texture that flows smoothly (not as thick as a runny nose, though). It gently envelops the skin, providing a gradual, moisturizing sensation as it absorbs. As someone with dry and sensitive skin, I love a rich, long-lasting moisture barrier, and this product delivers exactly that! It doesn't feel greasy, but rather offers a satisfying hydration that really quenches the skin's thirst. What I love most is how it wraps the skin in moisture without being sticky or slippery, preventing dryness while deeply hydrating. It's perfect for both morning and evening use without any issues. Although I'm aware of the role of fragrances, I actually enjoy the scent of this product. It's like a refreshing, cool artificial ocean breeze.
ConsIt might fall a bit short if you're looking for intense hydration on its own. I find it works best when I layer it after applying 3-5 layers of toner - that's the sweet spot for me. The scent might be a hit or miss for some people. It's worth noting that phenoxyethanol and fragrance are listed as caution ingredients.
TipFor ultimate satisfaction, try applying 3 layers of toner followed by a generous layer of this product. It's a hydration game-changer!

I actually got to try this product as a prize winner. At first, I was put off by the scent, so I used it on and off. I always thought it wasn't great because the fragrance bothered me, but I'd recommend it for those with very dry skin like mine as the hydration seems decent. While others mentioned slow absorption, for me it wasn't as slow as other products. After patting it in a few times, it absorbed well. It's been a while since I've seen such a glow, especially in this cold weather. Usually, products absorb quickly and it's hard to see that dewy glow these days. Even when using Estée Lauder foundation with oil, while the surface looked glowy, it felt too dry underneath. I couldn't use the Estée Lauder foundation before, but today after applying this ampoule and cream before the foundation, I didn't feel much dryness! I think this ampoule could be useful for those with dry skin. I plan to keep using it consistently.
ConsThe reason I didn't initially like this product was all because of the scent. It has a strong 'dad's aftershave' smell? At first, I thought the ingredients might not be good and it might be irritating, but after checking, that doesn't seem to be the case!

I have dry, slightly sensitive skin. The hydration power is excellent, and the skin feels plump even in the morning. It seems to work well under makeup too. The price of around $40 seems reasonable.
ConsI've been consistently using Lirikos' hydrating ampoule, and compared to that, this one has a much stronger scent that might be polarizing. It smells like men's skincare products. Also, it feels quite sticky on the skin.
TipWhile the moisturizing effects are great, I found it a bit too rich to use in the morning before applying makeup due to its sticky texture.
