It's gentle yet provides an amazingly moisturizing sensation that I really enjoyed.
ConsIt's a bit disappointing that the price is slightly higher compared to other brand products.

The moisture also seems fine. The fragrance is not irritating or strong, so I'm satisfied!
ConsAfter applying, it's a bit sticky, you could say. The finish is disappointing... The moisture dries up, and it feels a bit dry, so my face feels a bit taut...
TipI use a lotion right after it's absorbed to some extent

I was amazed by how quickly it absorbs into the skin. The moisture level was also not bad right after application.
ConsFor dry skin, it may become drying over time if used alone, so it's best to use it together with another cream.

Texture The texture is not watery like water, but has a viscous consistency, so I used it more for absorption rather than cleansing. Because of the viscosity, I felt that my skin was immediately hydrated after just one application! 2. Scent I was wondering if the Black Rice scent would be a bit on the healthy side, but during application, I hardly noticed any scent at all - it was almost unscented! Since I have rhinitis, I may not have been able to smell it well, but the scent was quite neutral. 3. Moisturizing Power As mentioned in the texture part, it felt plump and my skin was immediately hydrated after just one application. So I would apply multiple layers of a lighter toner, and soak a cotton pad with this Black Rice Hyaluronic Toner to use it as a sheet mask. My makeup would then look dewy and well-absorbed the next day. 4. Volume I used this quite generously as a sheet mask, at least once a week. But even then, the volume lasted a really long time and didn't seem to decrease much. You can really use this product liberally without worrying about running out.
Cons1. The viscous texture was a bit heavy for me to use on its own. It felt like it would suit the winter season better than summer. Other than that, I didn't have any major complaints about this product. I still have quite a bit left, so I'm planning to save it and use it during the winter.

That's why when I applied it, I felt a very moisturized and sticky sensation, so I had to pat it in well before applying the lotion. In my opinion, the absorption is a bit slow, but I didn't feel any tightness in my skin after using this product! That means it must be replenishing the moisture very well, right??>.< 🖤Usage Until now, I've been using a watery toner, so if I don't do a cotton pad cleanse, I feel unsatisfied and my skin texture doesn't feel quite right. So when I used this product, I did a cotton pad cleanse first and then used this toner, and I felt that this product is not quite suitable for the cotton pad cleanse. ▶️Personally, I think this product is more suitable as a moisturizing and soothing toner rather than a skin texture refining toner. 🖤Moisturizing Power and Effects With its sticky formula, the moisturizing power was good. That's why I think this product would be more suitable for winter rather than summer on its own. Was it my imagination that my skin looked brighter after using this product?? ㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ My skin appeared to have improved☺️
Cons🖤Fragrance I didn't have much aversion to the scent since it was a familiar smell that I've encountered before, but since this is a strongly scented toner, I think it might not be suitable for those who are very sensitive to fragrances. 🖤Price At 35,000 won for a 300ml bottle, I think the price is a bit burdensome. If I was asked whether I would repurchase this product, I would consider it, but there are many good toners these days with reasonable prices, so...ㅎㅎ 🖤Ingredients I'm quite sensitive to skin issues and breakouts, so when I buy a product, I always check the ingredient analysis on the Hwahae app. For basic skincare products, I get worried if there are red flags in the ingredient analysis. However, this product is labeled as suitable for sensitive skin 2 and dry skin 1, so I was a little anxious, but fortunately, I didn't experience any changes. If I had chosen this toner myself, I might have hesitated a bit ㅎㅎㅎ 🖤Sebum-Moisture Balance Adjustment As I mentioned earlier, I have combination oily skin in the summer. But this product didn't seem to control my combination oily skin very well, despite its excellent moisturizing properties. I still experienced oil and sebum buildup over time ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ
Tip🖤Since I have combination oily skin in the summer, with a lot of sebum buildup on my nose area, I found that using a cleansing oil at home to loosen up the sebum and gently massaging it out, followed by using this toner as a toner pack with a generous amount on a cotton pad, really helped soothe my skin! ㅎㅎ

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.Pros***Hwahae Trial Reviewer Review*** 1. Texture Although it is a toner, it has a slight viscosity. It is not too thick, and since it contains hyaluronic acid, it does not flow too much, making it easy to apply by hand. It is a mild acidic toner, so it is good to use it before applying an essence to absorb it well. It seems to be better absorbed than hyaluronic acid ampoules. 2. Large Volume The 300ml volume is uncommon, but it's great that it's generous enough to use liberally. 3. Moisturizing Synergy As a dry-skinned person, I like the slightly bouncy feeling after applying it. It's summer, so I don't want to burden my skin with a heavy cream, but this helps boost the moisturizing effect.
ConsThe price seems a bit steep. It contains black rice and bamboo shoot extracts, but I don't particularly feel their benefits. There are many cost-effective hyaluronic acid toners these days, so I'm not sure if I need to buy this one.
TipUse it as a facial mask by soaking a cotton pad with the toner and applying it to the dry cheeks!

It was not too strong, nor was it odorless - it had a subtle floral scent that I really enjoyed. 🌸 Texture It was not too watery, nor was it too thick or sticky - it was just right in the middle. So when it came out, it didn't come out too reluctantly or gush out, but came out just the right amount. 🌸 Effects It suited my skin well. It absorbed easily, and gave a slight glow. My skin felt much clearer and more transparent. The redness and irritation from my skin troubles also seemed to have calmed down a bit.
Cons🌸 Price As a Hwahae Trial Reviewer, I received it for free, but for those who are not, the price may be a bit burdensome.

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.ProsThis is a Hwahae Trial Reviewer review. My skin type is combination. • When I received the product, I was pleased to find an instruction manual and a leaflet with information about the ingredients of the same product line. This was very helpful for reference. • The product has a watery yet bouncy gel-like texture. It doesn't gush out when dispensed, which I liked. The packaging allows for controlled, small amounts to be taken out. • The fragrance is not fermented black rice as I had expected, but rather a rosemary or lavender scent. (It's said to be 100% natural lavender oil.) • When applied with a cotton pad, the product absorbs into the skin leaving it feeling moist and refreshed. I also tried applying it directly with my hands, and while it felt a bit sticky at first, the stickiness disappeared after some time. It seems the product takes a bit of time to fully absorb into the skin, but once it does, the finish is non-sticky and smooth. • I was worried about potential breakouts based on some reviews, but I did not experience any issues. I just had my usual minor blemishes, nothing more. It seems the reaction can vary from person to person. I've been using it mainly in the evenings before bed, and in the mornings I feel my skin texture has slightly improved. • The moisturizing performance is good. Even though the texture is bouncy rather than heavy, it keeps my skin from feeling dry when used alone. I haven't used it long-term, so I'm not sure about its effects on skin elasticity, but the hydration is impressive. • I would recommend this product to those who like the rosemary scent and are looking for a lightweight yet hydrating toner.
ConsThe fragrance of this product seems like it could be quite polarizing. While I personally enjoy scents like rosemary and lavender, those who dislike such fragrances may not appreciate it. The scent appears to be quite strong, rather than subtle. The relatively long absorption time required could also be a downside for those who are in a rush during their morning routine or need to quickly apply products before heading out. The use of fermented black rice extract and gentle ingredients is certainly a positive, but I haven't yet found a compelling reason why this product is an absolute must-have over other options on the market.

And I'm not sure if it's just my imagination, but the small bumps on my forehead seemed to disappear the more I used it😍 And no other blemishes appeared either ㎎ My forehead and nose area are oily, and I usually have a constant oil problem, but with this product, there was only a slight oil emergence even after about 6 hours ㅋㅋㅋ I didn't have high expectations for this, so I was really pleased! Many say the volume is small, but I think it's reasonable - not too little, but not a lot either ㎎ I'm satisfied with the ingredients, texture, and lack of troubles, and even using this alone doesn't make my skin dry or cause flakiness ㅋㅋㅋ I think it can be used well by those with oily, dry, or combination skin types😄 That's the good points, and this is an honest review based on my actual experience, so I hope it's helpful😘
ConsPersonally, I think this fragrance might be hit or miss. I found the scent a bit strange, but my sister said it was fine ㅋㅋㅋ Those sensitive to fragrances may want to keep this in mind! Other than that, I don't have any particular complaints ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

I had been using a watery toner, so I was unsure if it was good for my skin or if it was effective, but the Black Rice Toner has some viscosity and spreads smoothly :)) It doesn't flow like water, so it's easy to dispense and apply. After checking the ingredients, I found them to be really great!! So I felt confident about it. It also seems to have good absorption, but I'm not sure about the 'piling' issue that some people mentioned. Maybe it's because I've never applied makeup after using this toner. In my experience, it absorbs quickly ;)) The moisturizing effect is good too, so it's not drying. Most importantly, I'm happy about the antioxidant benefits :)) The scent is also subtly refreshing? It's different from my previous unscented toner, and I like it! If I continue to like it after finishing the bottle, I'll repurchase. I have rosacea-prone sensitive skin with an oily T-zone.
ConsThe next day after switching to this toner, I got 2 pimples, but I'm not sure if it's because of the toner or the mask. It could also be because I used a very oily sunscreen... So I took off one star, but I'll keep using it and update the review if I don't get any more troubles.
