When I wake up the next morning, my skin feels plump and firm.
ConsThe price is outrageously high and the artificial fragrance is way too strong. Considering the cost, it's not worth it at all.

As time passes, it gives a refreshing sensation. It seems to help calm blemishes.
ConsRight after applying, it feels sticky, making me worry it might cause breakouts. The price point is a bit high for generous application. The scent is not very pleasant.

As someone with combination dehydrated skin, I found it great for winter. I think it's suitable to use before bed, or even in the morning when your skin feels particularly parched. Once I finish the sample, I'm definitely considering purchasing the full-size product. In winter, I feel like using just this after toner would completely eliminate any dryness!! I tried it based on a recommendation from Lohb's, and it turned out to be an absolute holy grail item for me. My makeup used to flake due to dryness, but after using this, my foundation applied flawlessly... It's the best! Despite its rich texture, I thought it might not absorb well, but it actually absorbs quite quickly after application!
ConsThe scent...? There's a slight medicinal smell, perhaps from the cica ingredients. Also, it's a bit pricey... I think it was around 52,000 won. For those who aren't sure if it'll work for them, it seems there's a 14-day trial kit available now. It might be better to try that before purchasing the full size.
TipApplying serums or essences before this product might be overkill!

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 effectiveness is great. I noticed a significant flattening of those pesky little bumps in just one day! The texture feels like a combination of silicone and protein - it's so firm and bouncy you can really feel it. The color is off-white, and I'd say it's about as thick as Avène S.O.S Cica-paste. As a result, it feels nourishing without being drying. The spatula is small, but if you push it in, you can store it between the inner and outer lids. It's not as sticky as you might expect, but it doesn't melt with body heat either. Instead, it leaves a thick, protective layer on your face, similar to a sleeping pack.
ConsThere's an odd scent that's reminiscent of rubber balloons or alcohol. This aspect might be polarizing, and I suspect most people won't like it. I certainly didn't. The formula is so lacking in hydration that it's impossible to use before makeup. You need to really work it into your skin to spread it, and if you apply even a slightly thick layer, it pills up like dead skin cells once it dries.
TipI wouldn't recommend this for morning care, but for night care, I suggest applying it generously to your skin. If you're sensitive to dust, consider placing a towel on your pillow before sleeping.

My husband even asked, 'What's up with your face?' I thought it might not suit me, but the next morning after application, my skin felt firmer and smoother, so I can't help but keep using it! I don't usually use many skincare products, just toner twice, then serum, and cream. With this routine, my skin feels hydrated without any deep dryness!
ConsThe scent is a bit... unpleasant. It still bothers me every time I apply it.
TipThe texture is quite thick. I have oily skin and usually dislike heavy formulas, but mixing it with toner makes it work well for me.

I absolutely love it! While I'm not a fan of the scent, I appreciate that it's mineral-based, which seems beneficial.
ConsThe fragrance is a bit off-putting, reminiscent of a medicinal smell. I really didn't like the scent.

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.ProsI'm sorry, I can't think of any advantages for this product... (I received it as a free sample) However, I highly recommend the toner and skin fluid from the same line. They're super hydrating and have a nice bouncy texture! :) I'm considering purchasing those.
ConsThe scent is really strange, like a chemical or spoiled smell? As someone mentioned below, the texture is extremely thick, like an ointment. Because of this, it's very difficult to apply. It might be more suitable for use at a ski resort. I've never experienced a product with so little smoothness... I think this might be better used as a body product. It feels too heavy to apply on the face.
TipYou could use it as a substitute for Vaseline.

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.ProsThis is a review from The Hwahae Testers. 1. It really seems to banish dryness completely! I have extremely dry skin, and even after applying various creams, I always felt a bit of dryness. But with this product, I didn't feel dry at all! For me, this is truly revolutionary. I thought to myself, 'Oh, I'll definitely have to repurchase this when I run out!' 2. After application, it doesn't feel sticky, and the texture is slightly powdery, yet it doesn't feel dry at all. It also makes the skin itself look very smooth and glowy. While I don't particularly like sticky formulas even if they're moisturizing, this cream gives me exactly the feel I prefer. 3. It doesn't feel irritating. Thanks to my sensitive skin, I usually break out in blemishes when using cosmetics that don't suit me. However, this cream doesn't feel irritating at all, and instead, it seems to calm my skin. 4. When I apply a small amount before makeup, it doesn't cause pilling and allows the makeup to adhere well with a moisturized finish! My makeup used to start separating in the afternoon, but on days when I use this cream, it's noticeably better. It feels like it creates a film on the skin that smooths out the skin texture. 5. The slightly rich texture makes it easy to control the amount. It's easy to dispense cleanly, and a small amount is enough to cover the entire face. I was surprised at how light and fresh it feels despite its rich texture. 6. Not only is the product itself great, but the design is also really pretty. It looks lovely sitting on my vanity, giving a cute vibe. You can tell they put a lot of effort into the packaging too! I'd strongly recommend this to those with dry skin! It's not irritating, provides sufficient nourishment, and above all, it's not dry at all! It feels like I've discovered a product that I absolutely love after a long time... *sniff*
Cons1. It doesn't apply smoothly... It doesn't glide on smoothly or moistly! The absorbs makes it difficult to spread evenly in one go. 2. The scent was... a bit surprising. How should I describe it... herbal...? I'm not even sure what kind of scent it is... Anyway, it's not unscented, and it has a slightly heavy herbal scent. It's far from a fresh, crisp, or cool fragrance. But now I've gotten used to it and it's okay. 3. I understand it's moisturizing, but I couldn't really feel the effect of reducing redness. So far, I haven't experienced any outstanding improvements or changes as described in the 'various benefits' listed. I think I'll need to use it more consistently to know for sure about this aspect.
TipI've been using just toner and this cream without needing to apply various other products, and it seems to work well without burdening my skin. Use only a small amount, spread it gently, and then pat it in for absorption! If you apply too much, it might cause pilling when you do your makeup, so be sure to use only a small amount before applying makeup!

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 is a review from The Hwahae Testers. First off, the fact that my skin didn't turn red when I first used it means it's gentle. Usually, when I try new cosmetics, my skin reacts for the first 2-3 days. While many people mentioned that the scent isn't great, I found it to be a harmless kind of fragrance (though I'm not sure what type it is). The gentle scent was quite nice for me. It's a fragrance I really like. One of my favorite feelings is waking up the next morning after applying a product and finding my face has a bit of oiliness - it makes me feel great! This cream gave me exactly that - a nice balance of oil and a plump feeling when I woke up. Also, right after applying, you can feel your skin becoming more firm. Recently, my skin had been feeling a bit irritated, and while I'm not sure if it's because of this product, it seems to have improved a bit. Just before using this, I had used a face mask that didn't agree with me and caused a few blemishes, but they went away without any issues - which shows how gentle this product is. When I'm curious about whether a cosmetic product is good or if I'm using it effectively, I have a method: I use it for over a week and then stop for a day. When I didn't use this for a day, I could definitely feel a difference in my skin's oiliness and hydration levels.
ConsThe absorption isn't the best. Maybe because it's quite rich? It's a bit hard to spread, if that makes sense? Because of this texture, if you try to apply it too vigorously thinking it needs to absorb, you might end up irritating your skin more. Also, personally, I'm not a fan of fragrances in skincare products. Even though I liked this particular scent... When I checked on Hwahae, I saw that it contains fragrance ingredients? If it's natural fragrance that's fine, but if it's artificial, that's a bit disappointing for me.
TipSince it doesn't absorb very easily, I just roughly applied it on my skin, then placed my hands on my face to let the warmth help it melt in. Of course, you need to do this with clean hands, and it might have worked for me because my hands tend to be quite warm. Before writing this review, I searched online and found out you can get a 2-week free trial of this cream. It might be a good idea to try it out before purchasing.
