That's when I started using this for its soothing effects. Since then, my skin has normalized, and now I exclusively use this product! I love that it has a calming effect and can even be used as a mask.
ConsThe formula is quite watery and tends to run, but I'm still using it regularly. It lacks moisture for winter use, but that's okay since I'm using it for skin concerns. In summer, it doesn't feel particularly light after application. Being a Hanyul product, it's a bit pricey, but I've found affordable sites to purchase from. I wouldn't recommend applying it with the included cosmetic tissues - for some reason, it made my skin feel tingly, perhaps due to the tissues.
TipIt works well when you dispense an appropriate amount onto your palm.

Though I'm not sure about any major effects.
ConsIt's too runny. It keeps dripping down. It's really too watery and constantly slides off my face.

While some people mentioned blemishes appearing, I personally had no issues. The included samples and cotton pads are a fantastic bonus! Those cotton pads are amazing for doing a skin pack - they're perfect for the job!
ConsAs someone who usually uses essence-type toners, I made the mistake of tilting the bottle too much at first, causing it to spill out quickly. The texture is a bit on the thin side.

It feels moisturizing and has a pleasant scent. I'm satisfied so far, though I'll need to use it consistently to really know.
ConsThere's not much to complain about. The narrow opening makes the product come out in drops, but I actually prefer that to it pouring out too much.

As a mother of three, I've come to prefer products with gentle, minimal ingredients. My skin has become increasingly dry over the years, with deep dryness being a major concern. While I haven't used a large amount yet, I'm personally quite satisfied and plan to continue using it. The scent is very subtle, but if you pay close attention, there's a faint herbal aroma reminiscent of mugwort - I like that it's natural and not overpowering. As an essence, it's quite rich, but when I pat it in, it feels refreshing and absorbs well into my skin for a clean finish, which suits me perfectly. Recently, my arms have become extremely dry and itchy, leading to irritated skin. Since this product claims to have moisturizing and soothing effects, I tried applying it before my emulsion. Surprisingly, the urge to scratch due to dryness disappeared within about 10 minutes. While it's challenging to maintain a consistent skincare routine with young children, I feel that applying this 3-4 times a day could help heal the scratches caused by itching. I'm excited about this product and looking forward to using it diligently.
ConsI prioritize ingredients and functionality over product type, so this isn't a major issue for me. However, if I had to point out one drawback, it would be that the essence runs like water if you don't apply it directly to your skin - it's a bit wasteful. There's virtually no viscosity, so you need to pat it in quickly when applying directly to your face. Nevertheless, I'm okay with the lack of viscosity because I've seen its soothing effects, which is the functional aspect I care about. I prefer products without unnecessary additional ingredients, so this formula is perfect as is. If the price could come down a bit, I'd definitely continue using it long-term.
TipSince this is a lighter essence type rather than a serum, if you want to experience long-lasting hydration and soothing effects, it's best to layer products. Apply the essence, followed by an emulsion, and finish with a light pat of oil to help the moisture stay on your skin longer. The quick absorption makes it easy to layer with other products without feeling heavy. Personally, I apply additional products like emulsions to prolong the hydrating effects.

It feels like a gentle toner-essence hybrid. 2. Almost no scent I'm sensitive to fragrances and can't use products with strong artificial scents as they make me dizzy. This has a very faint, natural mugwort scent. It's not overpowering or unpleasant at all. I appreciated that it's a natural aroma. 3. Fast absorption and hydrating I use it as a basic toner. It seems great for soothing when my face gets red from sun exposure on hot days, or when I get small blemishes. It's perfect for moments when you need a calming effect. Despite being a watery essence, it absorbs quickly. I can finish my routine with just this and one other essence without feeling tight. You can even skip the cream step in your skincare routine.
ConsBecause it's a watery type that flows easily, you might use it up faster than expected. However, given the many benefits of a water-based essence, this isn't really a major concern.
TipI loved Hanyul's Young Mugwort line, so I was eagerly anticipating the release of the New Mugwort Essence. I was planning to buy it after finishing my current toner, but luckily I was selected for The Hwahae Testers and used it for about two weeks. I've been using it for nearly two weeks now, setting aside my regular toner. I'm currently on a skincare diet, and this essence is hydrating enough that I don't even need to apply cream. It has great soothing properties. When my face feels flushed or I get small blemishes, I leave it on as a toner pack for 2-3 minutes, and by the next day, the issues have noticeably subsided.
