It's great for hydration too. Perfect for light use during summer.
ConsI didn't find any major drawbacks while using it. If I had to nitpick, the only slight downside might be the herbal scent.

ConsIt's a product I'd hesitate to buy at full price, so wait for a discount
TipIf you suddenly get closed comedones, try using it as a cotton pad mask for quick soothing

Your skin feels cool and comfortable. Of all the essences I've used, this one feels the least burdensome on my skin. There's absolutely no stickiness, and it absorbs incredibly lightly. For a daily skincare product, it could be uncomfortable if it applied sticky, but this one doesn't have that issue at all. It gives a light and healthy feeling!
ConsWhile you might find it expensive, I highly recommend it because you get a generous amount and it applies so lightly, making it perfect for daily use.

I like that it's made with mugwort, which gives it a gentle feel. It's great that it doesn't cause any irritation for sensitive skin.
ConsThe container is too dark, making it hard to see how much product is left. I think it would be better if they could fix this issue.
TipWhen layered multiple times, it doesn't run or drip. There's plenty of toner, so it's great for hydration.

I use it like a toner and also apply it like an essence by dispensing some into my hands for extra absorption. Its versatility is a big plus. I haven't experienced any blemishes from using this product.
ConsHowever, it doesn't seem to have a significant effect on soothing or reducing blemishes. It's just... okay.

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.ProsIt's a water-based formula. I found it convenient to use, either by applying it with a cotton pad or spritzing it as a mist. It was also great for DIY sheet masks using Daiso mask sheets. It's more oil-rich than hydrating, which made it perfect for winter use. I loved that I could layer it without it feeling heavy, and it absorbs well into the skin.
ConsFirst off, I really disliked the scent. Instead of the expected mugwort aroma, it had a strong, harsh herbal smell. While the scent faded quickly, it was initially overpowering. Secondly, I feel deceived by the staff's claim about its effectiveness in reducing redness. After a month of consistent use, I've seen no improvement in my redness at all. Thirdly, I was shocked by how runny the texture is - when I accidentally spilled some, it went everywhere, which was both surprising and wasteful. Fourth, the price is extremely high, even with discounts. Lastly, I experienced some eye irritation. Due to the scent and price, I doubt I'll repurchase this product.
TipTry using it with a refillable container and DIY sheet masks for best results.

It absorbs well, leaving my skin hydrated. The fragrance is mild too. It works even better when used as a skin pack!
ConsIt's made solely from mugwort extract without any other ingredients. Being a 100% water-based formula, it's too runny. Using a small amount doesn't seem to make a difference, while using more feels wasteful. The value for money is really poor. I was considering exchanging my Tony Moly moisturizer for this, but after trying a sample, I realized I can't handle the amount needed. Won't be purchasing.
TipFor best results, soak a sheet mask in this toner and use it as a skin pack for about 10 minutes before makeup or on blemish-prone areas. This method allows for flawless makeup application and helps calm redness from blemishes.

With no harsh chemicals and only mugwort as the main ingredient, it's great for reducing inflammation, fighting bacteria, and detoxifying. Even those with blemishes or super sensitive skin can use it. While some might have mixed feelings about the mugwort scent, it absorbs quickly and the fragrance fades fast. As someone who had skin issues, I noticed a significant improvement - my redness and blemishes subsided considerably.
ConsThe scent might be polarizing for some. Those who aren't fans of water-based formulas might not enjoy this product.
TipFor best results, saturate a cotton pad generously and use it as an exfoliating toner. Leave it on while you dry your hair, then finish with a serum and moisturizer. It works wonders!

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 off, the fresh and healthy scent made it pleasant to use, giving a clean feeling. Its essence texture allows for easy application all over the face. Gently patting it in after cleansing morning and night had a soothing effect. As someone with oily skin, I noticed a significant improvement in oil control during summer. After applying it in the evening, my skin looked calmer and clearer the next morning! With the recent trend of mugwort products, I highly recommend this Tony Moly essence. It seems to have improved my skin health and addressed various skin concerns. Unlike heavier creams that might feel greasy, this essence feels light and satisfying to use.
ConsThis product seems suitable for all skin types. I received it through a Hwahae event and used it for about two weeks before writing this review. To be honest, I didn't notice any dramatic effects in such a short time. While my skin did feel healthier, I believe it would take at least a month of consistent use to see improvements in skin texture and other concerns. The short trial period was a bit disappointing. However, I didn't experience any adverse reactions or breakouts while using it.
TipAfter cleansing morning and night, use a toner to refine your skin texture, then apply this essence. Simply pat it gently into your skin to help absorption. On days when my skin felt particularly irritated, I found it very soothing to soak cotton pads with the essence and leave them on my skin for a while. For even better results, you could use a facial massage tool to help the essence penetrate more deeply after application.

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.ProsGiven all the hype around mugwort lately, I searched the app, tried testers in-store, and finally bought this product. At 42000 won for 150ml, I initially thought it was too expensive, but I got it on sale for 29400 won with a free sleeping pack, which seemed like a good deal. The absorption is quick, and despite being a water-based formula, it feels hydrating. I think people with combination dehydrated skin like mine will love it. It seems to calm my severe redness when used as a skin pack, which is great. Personally, I really liked the sleeping pack too. I found that applying a thin layer before makeup helps it adhere better. I'll probably repurchase!
ConsThe scent is a bit... I was really surprised at first, but you get used to it. I think it might be quite polarizing. Also, the volume seems too small. I wish they'd come out with a larger size.
TipI decanted it into an empty mist bottle and sprayed it before and after makeup. It gave a nice dewy effect that I really liked. Make sure to use it as a skin pack too - I saw great results that way.
