It's been incredibly effective in improving my acne-prone skin.
ConsThe only downside is that it takes a bit of time for the product to fully absorb into the skin.

After washing my face the next day, it's healed cleanly without any stinging sensation. Healing effect: It works well on shallow wounds or after squeezing pimples. (+) Amazingly, it heals cracked lips quickly in winter! Unlike lip balms that make your lips swell and peel, it's as if the dead skin cells just realize 'Oh, this isn't where I belong' and fall off on their own. It's especially effective when applied to slightly wounded areas where you've picked at the skin! I think it accelerates lip wound healing, leading to natural exfoliation of dead skin.
ConsBlemish soothing? I bought this because it was said to work well on acne, but that's not really the case. For pustular acne or right after squeezing a pimple, it might be better to apply a thin layer of Fucidin instead. No effect on scars: It doesn't work on old, darkly pigmented acne marks either.
TipAfter thoroughly extracting a pimple and applying a patch for a day or two, when it stops festering and starts to heal, applying this to the red area seems to speed up recovery. (It's not effective when the pimple core remains due to incomplete extraction. Right after extraction, using a patch or Fucidin for inflammation reduction might be better!)

It's not too sticky or drying. It's hydrating, effective on blemishes, and just great overall...!!
ConsSince it's a gel, compared to ampoules, it runs out too quickly. I can't use it for very long, unfortunately.
TipApply a generous layer after cleansing before bed

Instead, it feels soft and smooth, which I love. I have acne-prone skin, so I've been consistently using this with the cica balm and pure toner. My acne used to be quite hard, but after using these two products, it seems to have faded. I'm really satisfied!
ConsIf you apply too much, it can feel sticky and may cause your makeup to pill.
TipDon't squeeze out too much product. Use just a small amount and spread it thinly. If your skin already feels hydrated, you probably don't need to apply this.

The cica balm comes in a small, ointment-like tube and has a rich texture (more oily than hydrating). I apply a moderate amount to areas where blemishes are about to appear after washing my face before bed, and let it absorb. Personally, it works wonders for me! Since my skin generally responds well to cica ingredients, I found that most of my skin concerns were soothed by morning. I've already gone through 5 tubes! However, it doesn't immediately calm existing or very large blemishes. Still, I feel like something's missing if I don't apply it, so I keep using it consistently!
ConsHmm, while there weren't any glaring downsides, the product comes in a very small size. Also, if you apply too much, it can feel a bit greasy!
TipI apply a very thin layer all over my face with light tapping motions, then pat a bit more onto areas that need extra soothing!

When my skin was completely broken out, using this product calmed it down. I had been using Innisfree's Cica Balm before, but this one is far more effective.
ConsThe amount you get is very small compared to the price. While the price alone might seem quite reasonable, the quantity is almost the size of a Madecassol ointment tube.
TipWhen my entire face was broken out, I simply applied a small amount all over my face before bed. This worked better than spot-treating each blemish individually.

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.ProsWhenever I feel like blemishes are about to pop up, I always slather on a thick layer of this balm before bed. The next morning, I can see that the red marks have calmed down significantly! Even when applied generously to existing blemishes, you can feel the redness subsiding a bit. Just remember, if you're applying it before makeup, use only a very thin layer on specific areas to avoid pilling. I've seen great results with this method!
ConsThe only downside? It's not exactly budget-friendly. But since I use it sparingly, one jar lasts me about 2-3 months.

I feel like I might have scored it quite generously, but at the same time, I noticed my blemishes subsided faster than usual (that's why I gave it 4 stars!) - Around the time when my pre-menstrual blemishes were at their worst, I had a painful pimple near my lower lip. With a mix of skepticism and hope, I applied the product only to that area before bed. When I woke up, it had slightly reduced. After applying it once more that evening, the blemish completely disappeared.
Cons- Maybe it's because I've been using skincare products that absorb well? This one seemed to have lower absorption compared to what I'm used to. - After this experience, I've realized once again that cica products work wonders for acne. Now I'm on the hunt for more cica-based skincare items.
TipOnly on specific areas! It might be even more effective if applied when you feel a pimple coming on, as a preventive measure.

If I notice a pimple or blemish starting to form, instead of immediately popping it, I generously apply this for a few days and sometimes it goes away on its own! The texture is a bit heavy and rich, almost like an ointment.
ConsEven though I have oily skin, I've never experienced any blemishes while using this. However, it does feel a bit heavy for frequent use during summer.
