I especially loved how smoothly it absorbs, and the subtle herbal scent that lingers pleasantly without being overwhelming.
ConsI received this as a gift and have been using it, but when I saw the price, I was a bit taken aback. Still, I think I'd buy it with my own money. I've deducted one star since I haven't used it long-term yet.
TipI apply this and then layer another nourishing moisturizer on top. It feels like it locks in the hydration perfectly while providing just the right amount of nourishment.

At first, it seems like a rich cream, but once applied, the skin absorbs the moisture, leaving a supple and nourished feel. It has a slight oily texture, but it gets absorbed well.
ConsThe price is a bit high, so it would be better to buy it during a sale.

The fragrance is also mild, which I'm pleased with.
ConsThere's nothing particularly bad. Since I don't have a very sensitive skin type, I can use various products without much issue.

It applies moisturizing and smooth on my skin throughout the seasons, without any tightness, greasiness, or breakouts. The scent is also lovely - it's the best!
ConsIt's quite expensive ㅠ And I'm not sure if it has any special functional benefits.

Spreadability The cream has a slightly heavy, tacky texture when spread on the fingertips, but it applies smoothly and evenly. It has a creamy, moisturizing feel that gives the impression of being hydrating. 2. Absorption The absorption is good, but after application, there is a thin, glossy film-like layer left on the face. It's not a fully absorbed, refreshing cream, but it's recommended for those with atopic/dry/sensitive skin types. Unless there are any wounds, it doesn't cause any stinging or itchiness, which is very satisfactory. The texture is suitable to be used as a body cream or a hand cream. 3. Moisturizing Power Assuming only basic skincare (toner + essence) was used, upon waking up, the face did not feel overly dried out and maintained its moisture well, though it wasn't as intensely hydrated as some other creams. There were no issues with tightness or flaking. With extra time, applying the appropriate amount and gently patting it in until absorbed can help the hydration last longer and feel more nourishing, which is the case with most products. 4. Price The product was gifted by a friend who purchased it during a trip to Italy, so the exact price is unknown. However, it seems to be sold in Korea for 80,500 to 115,000 won per container, which seems overpriced, especially considering the 50ml size. The price is likely inflated due to the import process, as it's unlikely to be that expensive in the local market. 5. Volume The product comes in a 50ml size.
ConsAs mentioned earlier, this cream is quite expensive. I would recommend stocking up on it when it's on sale if it suits your skin well. Or you could try getting it during a trip to Italy! The cream has a ginseng-like scent, which some may like and others may not. Personally, I didn't find it particularly good or bad. In terms of moisturizing power, it didn't quite live up to my initial expectations. It's not as moisturizing as I had hoped, especially for Korean winter weather. Unless you have a specific sensitivity to any ingredients, this cream should work for most skin types. However, those with normal to oily skin may not need something this rich. The ceramic-like case is reportedly prone to cracking, so you'll need to be careful with it. Also, make sure to always close the lid tightly, as the cream can harden and become difficult to use if left slightly open for a few days. The product has a relatively short shelf life, as it contains minimal preservatives like phenoxyethanol to keep harmful ingredients to a minimum. I'd recommend using it up within 6 months of opening.
TipIf I had to write one honey tip, not a honey tip, for people with skin types like mine... In the morning when you wake up, 1. Wash your face with water and gently wipe with Erborian eau ginseng + water, or without water washing, directly wipe with Erborian eau ginseng + water, depending on the condition of your face. 2. Apply the Make Prem Idebenone Lifting Ampoule all over your face and pat with your fingertips (fingerprint area) until fully absorbed (add a little more to the necessary areas and pat until perfectly absorbed). 3. Lightly dab the Camaldoli Emolliens Unguentum all over your face. With just these 3 steps, I don't feel dryness all day and my skin stays moisturized:) Depending on the situation, I sometimes apply one of them again or do a face pack, but just sticking to this routine was enough to maintain good skin. I know it's a difficult skin type to maintain, so if there's anyone else like me, I just wanted to share my tip a little, not a honey tip, but just my tip haha.

I would apply a generous amount in the evening, and in the morning I could see my skin was plump and supple.
ConsThe price was a bit disappointing, so I had to take away one star.
TipTry mixing it with an essence oil in the evening for an extra boost!

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.ProsMy skin type is generally dry, excluding the T-zone. What I liked about it was the spreadability - the texture is a moderately light cream that feels smooth when applied, leaving a veil-like layer on the face. It's not a super watery, quickly-absorbing formula, so those who are not dry-skinned may find it a bit oily. As a dry-skinned person, I used to experience dryness even after using multiple products, but with this one, I didn't have any tightness or inner dryness - just a soft, supple complexion when I woke up in the morning after using it.
ConsThe scent is a bit like a traditional herbal cosmetic, which is a bit disappointing. It also has a slight irritating effect around the eyes, so it's best to apply it carefully in that area. This is why I gave it 4 stars.

ConsThe amount is a bit small :( Despite being incredibly moisturizing, it gets used up quickly :(
TipSometimes available at a great price on Mimi Box

ConsIt was natural and said it was suitable for all skin types, but on the first day I didn't realize it, but on the second day I noticed that my face and neck area had become reddish, so I quickly washed it off, and fortunately the next morning it had mostly gone back to normal. Since I usually don't have major issues with any products... This was my first time using a natural cosmetic product, so I'm not sure if that's why, or if it just doesn't agree with my skin. It was moisturizing, but it's a shame it didn't work for my skin.
TipIt would be a good idea to test it on another area of your skin before using it. By the way, I didn't have any issues when I applied it to other areas, but when I put it on my face, that's when the problem occurred. I wonder why that happened.

And I have some flat warts on my face, and it seems the moisturizing effect has improved a bit. I tend to have small pimples on the bridge of my nose and between my eyes, but the oil-moisture balance seems fine, as the small pimples have diminished and my skin feels smoother.
ConsIt's moisturizing, but after some time, it feels a bit oily... I applied a lot at first, but got startled, so I only apply a little now. The price is too high... My mom gave me this old monastery cream as a gift, saying it would be effective for my flat warts, but it didn't really work. Sigh...
TipApply it moderately. Don't apply a lot all at once, but do it in intervals... Try applying it once and if your skin feels dry after some time, apply some more. Your skin will get oily after applying it.
