Most importantly, I was really surprised by how large the volume is! Since I have a habit of leaving products I'm not too fond of in the corner, I was worried it would be a waste, but it seems to be a good product, so I've been continuing to use it! Also, the large volume could lead to hygiene issues, but there's a spatula included, so I can use it cleanly! A small amount is sufficient for adequate moisturization, and the longevity is good. The fragrance is not too strong and is quite mild, so it's a decent product. It not only provides oil but also moisture, making it an even better product. To be honest, this product was rather ordinary, so there's not much that stood out as particularly good. Personally, I would rate it 3 stars, but my mom likes this product, so she gave it 4 stars!
ConsWhile it's said that oil helps prevent moisture from evaporating, I do feel like there's a bit too much oiliness and a sticky, heavy texture. So I'm a bit concerned that the oil content might be a bit excessive. (My mom and I are using it together, and she really loves it, saying she doesn't feel the sticky, heavy texture, and the oil and moisture balance is just right for her, so she applies it generously every day!) I haven't really noticed much of a whitening effect yet. I'm not expecting anything dramatic, but the results do seem a bit minimal so far. (However, since I haven't been using it for very long, I'll need to observe the effects over a longer period to get a more accurate assessment.) As someone with combination skin, I do feel like it's lacking a bit in the moisture department for me. I've typically gravitated towards products with high moisture but low oil content, so the lack of hydration is a bit of an issue for me. The large volume is also a bit worrying in terms of hygiene. Even though there's a spatula, opening the lid exposes a large surface area of the cream, which is a bit of a concern. (It's unavoidable given the nature of the product, but it's still a bit disappointing.)
TipSince it's a large volume, using it cleanly is an important issue. But I'm the type who always dispenses a little at a time when I buy large-sized products, so even though there's a spatula, I always transfer it to another container to use it more hygienically. As a combination skin type, I felt the oil content was a bit too much for me, and it even felt a bit sticky, so for those with oily skin like mine, it's probably better to use it sparingly. My mom, on the other hand, has dry skin and likes products with a bit more oil, so she applies it generously. For those with dry skin, I'd recommend using it more liberally. As I mentioned before, as a combination skin type, I do feel this product lacks in the moisture department for me. For those with combination skin like me, I'd suggest first ensuring your skin is well-hydrated, then applying this product. Oil helps prevent moisture from evaporating, so it's best to apply it before your skin loses that vital hydration.

I've been using it after cleansing, applying the Plant Land Intensive Tea Tree Toner as a substitute. The fragrance is very light, almost like an ointment? They added fragrance, but it smells like they didn't. The texture is creamy, and when you apply it, there's a lot of oil left on the face (kind of like when you melt a cleansing balm). At first, it goes on slightly tacky, but when you spread it out, it has a fluffy feel, so the application is good. Since I have oily skin, I applied it at night before bed (when I tried it in the morning, the oil was too much, which I'll mention later). The oil gets absorbed appropriately after about 10 minutes, so my skin doesn't feel dry. I was worried it might cause breakouts because of the oiliness, but I didn't have any issues, so it's a pass. I thought my face would be an oil slick the next morning after using it at night, but surprisingly, it was slightly drying. When I used it on my face, that was the case, but when I tried it as a body lotion after showering instead of my usual one, it was even better! I wiped it with a towel, and when there was a slight moisture left, I applied it, and it spread so smoothly, and the oil was just right for my body. My body absorbed it faster than my face. (I applied it to my arms first, then my legs, and my arms felt soft and smooth.) Since it's a large size, I can use it on my face, neck, and body, and apply it generously, which I really like!
ConsHmm... the surfactant ingredients? It's a bit disappointing that there are some not-so-great ingredients... (But since there's no breakout, it's okay...) When it gets a bit colder, I usually layer a cream on top, but with this, since the oil takes a while to absorb, it's going to be a hassle to do that. And since it's a bit oily, I only use it at night. I applied it in the morning and did my makeup, but... oh no, the oil just exploded on my face. I usually use the Estée Lauder Double Wear, and even if I apply it thinly, the oil doesn't come up and the staying power is great, but with this, the oil just went crazy on my face.

It's the texture I personally prefer, with decent spreadability and a pleasant fragrance that's not overbearing. As someone with non-sensitive skin that can tolerate most cosmetics, I didn't experience any issues over the week I used this product. Even the blemishes I had before using it didn't get aggravated and ended up subsiding. While my skin is naturally on the fairer side, I didn't notice any significant whitening effects during the time I used the product. There are still a few visible spots, but it's unrealistic to expect dramatic brightening results in just a week. It's quite moisturizing. I've had days where the skincare products I used in the past left my face feeling oily the next morning, but these days, if I don't properly hydrate my skin, it ends up feeling parched. Even though this is a large-sized product with a short 6-month shelf life after opening, I've been using it generously, and it's been keeping my skin comfortably moisturized until the next cleansing. It's not overly greasy, just the right amount of absorption, leaving a slightly dewy finish without feeling sticky. There are some minor wrinkles under my eyes, but I didn't notice any significant improvement in that area either. Given the short trial period, I didn't have high expectations for visible anti-aging effects, as I know those tend to take more time to manifest. The generous size allows me to apply it all over my body, which I've been doing on my neck, elbows, ankles, and calves before bed. The absorption is good enough that the bedding doesn't feel damp when I lie down.
ConsWith its claims of containing vitamins, whitening properties, and wrinkle improvement, this seems like a well-formulated skincare product packed with beneficial ingredients. However, the modern trend in the cosmetics industry is that even if a product has 99 good things, the one bad thing can still make it unpopular. Ideally, it would be great to have a skincare product that is free of any harmful components and truly nourishing for the skin. Additionally, despite the impressive list of features, the lack of dramatic results in a short time, combined with the high price point, makes the value proposition questionable.

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.ProsFirst of all, let me inform you that this is a Hwahae Trial Reviewer review. In my case, I have sensitive skin and I used the product for about 10 days. Even though I have sensitive skin, I didn't experience any issues while using the product! It seems to be a convenient product that combines various functional benefits such as moisturizing, whitening, and nourishing. The product has a regular cream texture, and the fragrance is not unpleasant. Since it's not a water-based formula, it takes some time to absorb into the face. However, the staying power is quite good. The most important aspect for me was the moisturizing power, and it was excellent. If you apply an appropriate amount before going to bed, your face will feel moisturized and not dry the next day. You'll need to cleanse it thoroughly when washing your face. I didn't have high expectations for the whitening effect, as I haven't seen much effect from other whitening products. But after using it for more than a week, I noticed that my face looked brighter when I removed my makeup. I think the effect will be even better with consistent use. The product is in a large size, so you can use it generously and for a long time. It can be applied not only on the face but also on other dry areas of the body. As the weather gets colder, I've been applying it to my arms and legs as well. In terms of moisturizing, this product seems to be more suitable for use in winter than summer.
ConsI think the product price is a bit burdensome. Of course, the product quantity is large, so it can be used for a long time, but when you just look at the price, it might be difficult to purchase it immediately. Personally, I was more impressed by the moisturizing aspect of the product than the whitening. But since the product is called a 'Whitening Cream', those who are focused on whitening might not be fully satisfied.
TipIf you use a highly moisturizing product like this one before your morning makeup, it may cause your makeup to slip. That's why I usually use it before going to bed. If you have enough time for the cream to be fully absorbed, you can also use it before your morning makeup. Similarly, in addition to the face, you can use this product on other dry areas of your body. It's great to apply it to your arms, legs, or other dry parts before bedtime.

The amount is really a lot. And when I opened it, there was a spatula, which was great in terms of hygiene. The texture is a bit sticky cream, but when applied, it's moisturizing and smooth. It's slightly oily, but it absorbs quickly. And the scent, I'm not sure what it is, but it's not overbearing or unpleasant!! They really used great ingredients!!
ConsThe downside is that it doesn't immediately brighten the skin right away ㅠㅠ I thought it was a whitening cream, so I expected it to brighten the skin immediately, but it felt more like a vitamin cream rather than a brightening one ㅠ

The capacity is huge and the scent is moderate. It says it can be used on the face and body, and if you use it as a body cream right after showering, it's soft and moisturizing. Since my face is very sensitive, I was hesitant to use it, but when I applied it before makeup, it made my skin feel moisturized. If you want a glowy, dewy skin, I think it would be good to use. But since I'm oily, the oil comes up too much in the afternoon, so I don't think I'll use it before makeup. At night when my skin feels dry and tight, applying a thin layer isn't bad! I don't think it caused any breakouts.
ConsIt's fine for the body, but when applying it to the face, the hygiene is a bit... Since it's in a tub, scooping it out means dust can easily get in. There is a spatula included, but it's annoying to use, so I don't. Hmm, and I wish there was a smaller size option. And since it's oily, I won't use it on my face. It's too big and the size makes it expensive, which is a bit disappointing!
TipIt's a whitening cream, but there's no immediate whitening effect or anything like that when you apply it. It's a whitening cream that brightens your skin with continued use. ++ It has a Diptyque Salt 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.ProsThe Hwahae Trial Reviewer review is as follows!! 😀 - It's not too greasy or oily. The cream formula felt a bit sticky when I first applied it, but the stickiness went away over time and it absorbed into my skin refreshingly. - Decent moisturizing power I used this product instead of a regular moisturizer after applying a water-based toner, and the moisturizing power was quite good! The added functionality made it more convenient to use. - Personally, I liked that the fragrance wasn't too overpowering. I generally prefer fragrance-free products, but the subtle scent here wasn't bothersome. - The ingredient composition doesn't seem to cause skin troubles! For reference, I was in terrible condition when using this product, working until 4am daily. But even in that worst-case scenario, I didn't experience any breakouts. I also used this on my body, not just my face. I'm allergic to fermented ingredients, and even Iope products caused me hives, but this one didn't irritate my skin at all! Those with fermentation allergies can use this product with peace of mind. **Since I haven't used it for a full month yet, I haven't seen the whitening or anti-aging effects yet. I'll leave another review if I notice those benefits with more prolonged use.
Cons-It's too large in volume. ㅠㅠ It came in a 300ml jar, which is huge... I'll be using this for a very long time ㅋㅋㅋㅋ While a large size is good, products with vitamin ingredients tend to oxidize over time when exposed to light, so a smaller size would be better. And in a jar format, even using a spatula, I'll have to dip into it repeatedly, which raises hygiene concerns. ㅠㅠ I'd be more likely to buy it if it was 100ml and priced around 20,000 won, but 300ml for 88,000 won, hmm.. I'll probably just get something else. ㅠ
