I apologize for not posting the review within the given timeframe. On the evening I received the product, I applied a large amount out of excitement, which unfortunately caused my skin to react negatively. As a Hwahae Tester, I felt it was important to use the product properly before writing a review, so I took a break and tried again, which caused the delay. Now, let's start the review! 1. My Skin Type I have combination dehydrated skin that's super sensitive! My skin erupts with inflammatory acne and small bumps if my lifestyle changes slightly or if I use the wrong skincare products. That's why I'm extremely careful when choosing cosmetics. 2. Ingredients All ingredients have low EWG ratings and there are no harmful components. I've always prioritized ingredients and avoid harmful ones. This product contains zero harmful ingredients and includes trendy components like panthenol, sodium hyaluronate, and allantoin, which I really like. These are perfect for the current dry weather! I especially love panthenol as someone who constantly deals with acne. It helps repair the skin barrier and aids in wound healing, which is very beneficial after popping pimples! Then there's the patented ingredient, Lacto-Pade. This company has been researching and producing lactic acid bacteria for 23 years. The fact that they discovered Lacto-Pade makes it seem more trustworthy. This product has also been evaluated for primary skin irritation and suitability for acne-prone skin by a certified domestic cosmetics clinical research organization! 3. Application It has a soft texture that absorbs without stickiness! However, it's not a quickly absorbing formula like some moisturizers. It's more like cream cheese - soft but a bit thick. It's hard to explain, but it doesn't absorb immediately upon application. I loved the non-sticky texture so much that I applied too much on the first day, which caused an oil overload and a massive acne breakout. When I looked in the mirror the next morning, I was devastated to see 7 or 8 huge pimples on my chin! 5. Scent Most people say it smells like yogurt or has no scent at all. To me, it smells exactly like homemade plain yogurt. The scent of plain yogurt can be divisive. It's different from store-bought plain yogurt. My sister says it smells a bit like spoiled milk, but I really like this scent! I appreciate that it doesn't contain artificial fragrances, as I don't understand why cosmetics need added scents. 6. Oil and Moisture Balance The product claims to provide intensive hydration and oil to the skin. However, as someone with combination dehydrated skin, I only felt the oil and didn't find it particularly hydrating. Recently, I've been doing herbal peels which leave my skin very dry with lots of dead skin cells. When I applied this cream generously to calm the flaking, it did soothe the dead skin cells but caused an acne breakout. Due to its high oil content, those with oily skin should only apply a small amount! However, I didn't feel much hydration, so those with combination dehydrated skin shouldn't rely on this cream alone. I found it worked better when I used a toner, hydrating serum, and a small amount of this cream. 7. Packaging Unlike most creams that come in jars which can be unhygienic and inconvenient, this comes in a pump bottle. It's easy to control the amount and use cleanly, which I really like. I'll update this review after using it more!
ConsIt lacks hydration and feels quite oily. Those with oily skin should be careful! The price point in the upper 30,000 won range seems quite expensive. It's a shame, considering there are many good products available at more affordable prices these days.
TipThe high oil content works well to quickly calm areas with a lot of dead skin cells. It works great when applied together with an exfoliating cream for dry skin or a spot treatment cream.

Usually, when we think of creams, we imagine scooping them out with a spatula. Opening the lid, using the spatula, then cleaning it... it's a hassle, right? But this one is hygienic and super convenient because you just pump it out! It's perfect for busy mornings! ★ Application I really want to emphasize this!!!! Just pump once on each cheek and forehead, then gently massage - it absorbs instantly!!! There's no residue at all, and it applies so smoothly. However, this might vary from person to person. Some reviews mention poor application, but for me, it was the best I've ever experienced. I've never seen a cream apply and absorb so quickly before. The texture was incredibly soft too. ★ Ingredients Not only am I grateful for the absence of harmful ingredients, but it also contains Lacto, which is great for the skin. I'm so thankful for these ingredients!
Cons★ Hydration It claims to be a daily cream that provides nourishment and hydration, but the moisturizing effect was... not great. Absolutely do not use this instead of a hydrating cream. It feels more oily than hydrating. Even after it's fully absorbed, you might still feel a bit of oiliness.
Tip1. Because it applies and absorbs so well, I used one pump, spread it, then used a second pump. I recommend layering it like this. 2. Since it's a bit oily, apply your hydrating moisturizer first, then use this. It acts like a protective barrier to prevent moisture loss.

Feels like a moisturizer that applies thinly and isn't sticky ✔️For dry skin - adequate moisturizing power, for combination skin - slightly rich *Advantages* ✔️Despite being rich, it doesn't feel heavy or sticky ✔️Definitely gentle ingredients ✔️Not irritating when applied ✔️Suitable for daily use as a daily cream. Light enough to use before makeup ✔️Less shiny compared to other creams ✔️After absorption, skin texture becomes soft and smooth
Cons*Disadvantages* ✔️As it's more rich than hydrating, applying too much can clog pores and cause blemishes ✔️The subtle dairy-like scent that occasionally appears can be unpleasant at times ✔️The pump sometimes doesn't work well. You might need to press it several times before product comes out ✔️If you don't apply a hydrating product in the previous step, it feels like the oil and moisture balance is off. A hydrating product is definitely needed in the previous step
Tip✔️Applying a hydrating ampoule before the cream and then finishing with this cream forms a thin moisturizing layer and balances oil and moisture, improving skin texture ✔️Recommended more for dry and combination skin rather than oily skin

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 Testers review! First Impression: When I first received the cream, the packaging gave off a professional, dermatologist-approved vibe. Upon application, it felt incredibly gentle on the skin. The pump dispenser is convenient and ensures hygienic use without worrying about contamination. Skin Type: Dry + Combination dehydrated skin in T-zone + Atopic + Sensitive Ingredients: I was pleasantly surprised by the ingredient list - it's truly top-notch. As someone with super sensitive skin, the formulation gave me confidence that this product would work well for me. Application: It glides on smoothly when applied to the back of my hand. On the face, it spreads easily at first, but after a few strokes, there's a slight resistance. However, this isn't unpleasant - it seems to be due to the cream's unique moisturizing properties. Hydration: Initially, it provides a noticeable boost of moisture. After absorption, you can still feel it on the skin, but with a fresh finish. On my face, it felt more hydrating than expected - not overwhelmingly so, but a comfortable level of moisture. Scent: It's fragrance-free. There's a faint medicinal cream scent, but it's barely noticeable. I appreciated the lack of fragrance as it reinforced the gentle nature of the product. One Week Later: Application: The texture remained consistent, with that slight resistance during application. Hydration: It proved to be much more hydrating than I initially thought. On lazy evenings, I used this alone and woke up with no skin tightness - just comfortable hydration. Skin Changes: While I didn't notice significant changes, I appreciated how gentle it was. Even when I accidentally slept with makeup on (which usually irritates my sensitive, atopic skin), this cream didn't cause any adverse reactions.
ConsInitial Impressions: At first use, I didn't have any complaints! While the application isn't incredibly smooth, it was still acceptable. After One Week: As I continued to use it, I noticed that the moisturizing effect feels more oil-based than water-based. Perhaps because of this, I experienced a slightly thick, resistant feeling each time I applied it.
TipFirst Impression Tip: Based on my initial experience, this cream seems suitable for both day and night use, especially for those with sensitive skin. As someone with atopic, easily irritated skin, I found it comfortable to apply without any discomfort. One Week Later Tip: As the weather has become drier, I've been using hydrating products from skincare to base makeup, finishing with powder. I've found that applying Lactoclear, then mixing a couple of drops of facial oil in my palms and patting it over the cream before applying base makeup leaves my skin feeling deeply hydrated. While I'm not sure if this qualifies as a 'tip', it's a method that's been working well for me!
