In the winter, my skin was getting very dry and tight, but that problem has disappeared! Even though I haven't been using it for long, the blemish marks have faded, and the non-inflammatory blemishes have become smaller. My skin texture has become smoother, and the pore size has also decreased.
ConsEverything was great, but I think it was too rich and nourishing for me, or maybe I have an allergy. Small bumps started appearing, and then larger, swollen-looking blemishes came up next. The existing blemishes were getting smaller, and I was seeing good effects, but what could be the problem? Boo hoo. I want to keep using it because of the good effects, but will it be okay if I keep using it and get used to it? ***Update!! I used it without adjusting the amount for about 3 days, and it seemed a bit too irritating, so I took a 2-day break from using it. Then I started applying it in smaller amounts, not a lot at once, and letting it absorb well before adding a little more if needed. This way, no new blemishes appeared, and I started seeing a healthy glow and improved skin texture!!! I'm so glad I didn't give up and tried applying it again carefully. Sniff sniff. And even though the formula is really rich, I was worried it would make my oily skin even greasier, but instead, it balanced my oil and moisture, and my face feels less tight than before - it's actually become more supple. I upgraded my rating from 3 stars to 4 stars!! The reason I took one star off is that since I have oily skin, I want to minimize my skincare routine, and this cream alone doesn't quite feel enough. If I use it with the products from the same line, like the Heo Beom-cheol Skin, it feels more moisturizing and great, but I've only tried the samples and couldn't buy the full-size product yet.
Tip1. *Adjusting the amount is essential!! If you apply it in small amounts and let it absorb well, you can definitely make it work (it gets absorbed quickly anyway!). 2. It's the best as the final step in skincare! It helps fill in the dry areas after applying the lighter, more watery products, and even if the previous products were a bit oily, this seems to help reduce that oily feeling a bit. This works really well for me. I think it's a bit too nourishing for me, so I'm only using it for my nighttime skincare routine, and even just that is enough to keep my skin happy.

Rather than feeling an immediate absorption, it is absorbed by layering it in small amounts (in 2 steps) with sufficient rolling, and gently pressing the area with the palm of the hand. It was necessary to focus on absorption without leaving a residue or dryness! It requires a bit of effort, but the effects were good when done this way!! *Soothing effect When my skin was flipped twice a month due to hormones, I could see the effects when using it on the problem area (U-zone). (The U-zone is combination skin, the T-zone is extremely dry skin) There were some areas that felt a bit dry when using it all over the skin. *Fragrance-free There is no scent that would cause likes or dislikes. *Tester When purchasing from the official website, you can purchase sufficient samples and the full-size product. You can thoroughly test it with the samples. (When purchased during a sale, the price was quite reasonable, around the late 20,000 won range!) *Volume Since I layered it in small amounts multiple times, the amount was quite generous. *Tube type It is more convenient and clean than scooping out a cream from a jar, as you can use only the necessary amount without contamination.
Cons📌Cannot be used before makeup I think it's because of the ingredients, but something like clumping(?) forms. Makeup looks messy because it appears to be peeling off if I don't properly exfoliate. 📌While it works perfectly for me and I see good effects, my family member said their face felt hot and the next day, more severe blemishes appeared. If possible, it's better to test the sample first!
Tip🌿If a breakout occurs, I only used the basic skincare products minimally. Throughout the day, I used only toner and essence to keep the skin soothed and hydrated. After evening cleansing, I used toner, essence, and cream (in a thin, double layer) only on the problem areas.

It seemed to have good reviews for acne effectiveness, so I bought it. The texture is slightly thick, but it applies well. There is a slight white cast, like sunscreen, but it disappears as it absorbs. I really like that it doesn't feel oily or heavy, which is perfect for my oily skin type. I also didn't experience any irritation at all.
ConsMy inflammatory acne flared up after using it for about 3 days. The usage experience was very satisfactory, but the inflammation started to appear. Despite continuing to use it, the acne did not improve and only got worse, so I eventually had to stop using it.
TipThe cream didn't work well for me, but the toner seems to be okay - it doesn't make my acne worse and leaves my skin feeling moisturized. For those who had issues with the cream, I'd recommend trying the toner as well. I've stopped using the cream but am continuing to use the toner. Just note that the toner has a slightly sticky feel to it.

And when my skin starts to feel dry, I can just apply the Saint Louis Skin Vargos Repair Cream, and it seems to help.
ConsCons After using it for 3 days, I developed some small bumps and hard pimples. But I'm not sure if the product caused the breakout or not. :(

In the past, my thighs would crack in the winter and I would get allergic-like reactions. My family gave me this product to use, and as soon as I applied it, the irritation calmed down and the skin was about to develop real stretch marks, but it didn't. Since then, I've been using it as a body cream. When my skin is sensitive, dry, or irritated, applying this helps soothe it well. I'm sensitive all over my body, and even a small mistake in application or just a bit of dust can make me itchy and cause pimples to appear. But this product works really well for me!
Cons+++My skin type+++ My skin is thin and has a lot of redness and heat sensitivity. It's sensitive, oily, and lacks moisture. My pores are on the wider side. If there's too much nourishment, small pimples appear, and if cleansing is inadequate or pores get clogged, or if it gets dry, large pimples form. If I use a product that doesn't suit me, redness spreads across my face like hives, and it gets irritated. +++++++++++++ It didn't work well on my face, causing breakouts, but it works great everywhere else. The formula is a bit heavy, so it can sometimes apply thickly, which is a shame since the product is pricey. I try to spread it thinly to avoid wasting it.
TipI think I could also use this as a stretch mark cream. Though I'd have to apply it many times, it still calms and moisturizes my skin really well.

As I have combination skin, I had a hard time finding the right skincare products, but I've been using this consistently for almost a year now and it has worked well for me.
ConsSince I have combination skin, my skin is dry inside but oily on the surface. This product doesn't seem to control the oil well enough, and whenever I get heated up, I tend to develop inflammatory acne. I'm not sure how to manage this issue.

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.ProsAt first, when I applied it a few times, I felt that my skin tone was corrected and my skin texture was organized the next day. It was originally a T-zone oil country, but I bought it because I heard it was famous since it became a T-zone + butterfly zone oil country, even though I never use creams. Fortunately, there was no feeling of my face being covered, stuffy, or dusty. Seeing that there was no particular problem the next day even after using the cream several times, it doesn't seem to be a cream that causes trouble, so I used it for a few months. Also, as someone who uses a matte foundation, the base is very important, and since it's a cream, it helped my makeup absorb well, which was good. I think this might be a cream for dry skin.
ConsAt first, the effect appeared, but over time, the effect became negligible. Even while using the cream consistently, my skin would get worse and then get better again. I knew that my skin getting worse wasn't because of this cream, but I felt that this cream couldn't prevent my skin from getting worse, so I stopped using it after a few months. And since it's a very rich cream, while it helps my makeup absorb well, over time it also makes my makeup look greasy. Oh, and since it's a large-capacity cream, the container requires scooping it out, which felt unsanitary to me. If the spatula gets dusty, the dust shows up in the cream as well, which was inconvenient.

At night, I would apply it and my face would still have moisture until the next morning, and my acne would settle down stably. The creamy texture was like an ointment, so I felt I could trust it.
ConsFirst of all, the price is outrageous, so I couldn't buy any other cosmetics for a while... The packaging is also extremely inconvenient! I'm sensitive, and sometimes when my skin condition is not good, it would sting when I applied it. Be sure to test it before buying. ++Additional information On days when my body was stressed and I had acne breakouts, I used it, and a lot of blisters popped up especially around my mouth and chin area. It became very red and extremely stinging. While the effects are strong, it seems like it shouldn't be used when your sensitive skin is weakened. I'm not sure what to do with the remaining amount, but I think I'll use it as a body lotion.
