ConsThe scent is really unpleasant. It doesn't even provide good hydration. When applied, it just sits on the skin without absorbing. After a while, your skin feels even drier than before application.

It's only about $2 online. I ended up buying 5 of them!
ConsEven though I applied plenty on the surface, it doesn't improve the deeper layers of my skin at all. It just leaves the outer layer shiny while the inner layer remains dry. Unlike Sidmool Jojoba or Innisfree Green Tea, it fails to nourish the skin deeply.
TipI'll probably just stash it away and use it only in emergencies. It might be better to invest in a pricier but smaller quantity of the Green Tea one, or go back to Sidmool even though it's a bit sticky.

Price Extremely affordable with a generous amount. Perfect for everyday use and easily available at various stores. No need to wait for sales - if you lose it, you can quickly replace it. 2. Packaging The lip balm glides up smoothly with just a slight twist. It's not stiff, and even if dropped multiple times, the container rarely cracks or has issues with the lid closing properly. 3. Lightweight It feels light even after multiple applications, making it ideal for frequent use throughout the day.
Cons1. Hydration Not suitable for severe dead skin cells or when you need immediate lip softening, as the effects aren't instantaneous. The hydration is weak, so no matter how much you apply, it dries out and disappears quickly. 2. Absorption Even with generous application, it barely seems to absorb into the lips. The formula is somewhat hard, so it just feels like it's sitting on the surface no matter how many layers you apply. It's so ineffective you might wonder if it's even a lip balm. 3. Durability It often melted or became mushy when carried around in summer, and frequently broke when dropped. If it doesn't seem to be applying well and you press harder, it breaks very easily.

The positives: * It has great ingredients and hydration, just like standard Vaseline * Almost no scent - practically fragrance-free * It's a straightforward, no-frills lip balm
ConsThe biggest drawback of this product is the 'moist on the outside, dry on the inside' feeling. While it makes the surface incredibly smooth and hydrated, it feels dry underneath. It doesn't seem to moisturize deep down. The hydration wears off quicker than expected, so you need to reapply frequently and consistently

Since I tend to lose lip balms about once every two months, I think it's a good idea to keep one or two as spares.
ConsIt sits on top of the lips without absorbing well, so you need to reapply almost every hour. The unscented formula is both a pro and a con.

I'm a lip balm addict, need to apply it 24/7! The texture glides on even smoother than Vaseline. While it may not feel super hydrating, I still use it since I got it for a bargain.
ConsIt feels like it's just sitting on top of my lips, even more so than Vaseline. There's no real moisturizing effect. The ingredients... oh, I meant to say lip blemishes, not acne. Sometimes I get these little bumps on my lips that look like blemishes. I wonder if it's because of this. It's a bit scary. I'm worried about what might develop.

When applied to chapped lips, there's no stinging sensation at all - instead, it feels soothing.
ConsAs far as lip balms go, it's not very moisturizing. It feels like it just sits on the surface. It doesn't particularly excel at removing dead skin cells either. While I'll continue using it if I have it, I won't repurchase once it's finished.
TipIf you frequently pick at your lips, using this feels like applying a healing ointment. However, for those with already healthy lips, there's probably no need to use this product that lacks significant hydration.

However, the jar version is much better.
ConsI won't buy this again because there are many better options out there. It doesn't absorb well and just sits on the skin. After a while, it seems to absorb a bit, but then my skin feels dry again soon after.

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.ProsA major plus is that it's almost fragrance-free. Unless you put your nose right up to the container, you can barely detect any Vaseline scent when applying it to your lips.
ConsThe hydration is extremely poor... It's probably the least moisturizing lip balm I've ever used. The texture feels very slippery. Because of this, no matter how generously I apply it at night, my lips are completely parched by morning. The adherence is also not good. My lips are always dry, so I always use lip balm before applying other lip products, but with this one, it feels like it just sits on top of the skin. As a result, any lip products applied over it have almost zero color payoff and staying power. I'm not sure if this is normal, but when applying to the lips, the container holding the lip balm sinks in... This is very inconvenient. 📌Update (Feb 11, 2019): After reading a review suggesting that blemishes might occur from applying too thick a layer, I continued using this product. However, two days ago, blisters appeared on my upper lip, which then turned into what looked like dead skin cells and haven't gone away. Absolutely do not buy this. You're better off spending this money on a cup of Americano. It's a complete waste of money.
TipI won't be repurchasing this. If you're considering buying it, it's currently on sale for around 3000 won at Olive Young, so that might be the best place to purchase if you really want to try it.
