Please keep in mind that individual experiences may vary. Key point: It's not sticky! - For me, the most important thing about an ampoule is that it's not sticky! - Personally, I'd say this is its biggest strength. - However, I think many other ampoules share this quality too. Key point: No irritation! - While I don't have sensitive skin myself, my boyfriend has sensitive, acne-prone skin, so I could tell from his experience. - It's a product that even my boyfriend, who sees a dermatologist, can use without causing blemishes.
ConsKey point: The oil and moisture balance really doesn't work for me. - You can feel the oiliness as soon as you apply it. - Me: combination dehydrated skin, My partner: combination skin - We both always comment on how greasy it feels when we apply it. Key point: It pills more than expected! - It pills worse than other ampoules! - I think this happens because it has more oil than hydration.
TipImportant: The timing of application is crucial! Don't apply it as a base before putting on makeup. Instead, use it before bed or after cleansing when you're not wearing makeup. This way, your makeup won't break down!

It has a nice balance - light enough, yet it feels like it's clinging to your skin in a satisfyingly substantial way. I didn't experience any blemishes while using it.
ConsIf you apply foundation or cushion right after using this serum, well... you might notice some pilling. Even if you wait a bit before applying makeup, you might still experience some slight pilling.
TipIf you slather on a generous amount before bed, you'll wake up with incredibly hydrated skin.

I think it's great to apply generously before bed.
ConsIt's a bit sticky. Also, I'm not sure if it's just me applying it wrong, but sometimes it seems to pill.

ConsUnfortunately, it tends to pill when applying makeup. It seems this product doesn't play well with certain base products.

ConsThe absorption is slow, and if you apply it before makeup, there's a slight pilling effect. Careful control of the amount is essential.

ConsI bought this at a discounted price during an event, but I received what seemed to be an export version. When I inquired, they assured me it was the same as the domestic product, so I trusted them and gave it a try. When I tested it on the back of my hand before, it absorbed quickly without any stickiness. However, when I applied it to my face, it felt slightly oily and kept pilling. Moreover, the cream didn't seem to absorb at all. While it gave a glowy appearance that made my skin look good on the surface, I couldn't feel it actually penetrating my skin. So, I ended up giving it to a friend.

First off, I really appreciate the Dokdo line's image of gentle ingredients and trustworthy cosmetics! It's perfect for someone like me who doesn't want to fuss over every little detail. The 45g size is just right for an ampoule. 1. Fragrance-free I always love the unscented Dokdo line products! (Unless my nose is just really dull...) 2. Hyaluronic acid I've been taking hyaluronic acid supplements lately, and it's in this ampoule too! I'm really giving my skin a hydration boost these days! 3. Absorption Despite containing hyaluronic acid, it absorbs well when you pat it into your skin with gusto, as if channeling the energy of the universe! 4. Moisturizing Since my skin is quite oily, I usually only use concentrated ampoules like this at night. But these days, there are many lightweight ampoules that could work for morning skincare routines too! Of course, I'm talking about winter use... After cleansing at night, I apply toner, then just this ampoule, and I don't feel any tightness or dryness. It's great!
ConsWhatever you do, don't apply too much out of greed! I tried using it generously like a sleeping pack one night, and it was a disaster. It didn't absorb at all, formed little granules, and then started pilling on my skin. The next morning, I woke up with tiny blemishes! I read in someone's review that if hyaluronic acid doesn't agree with your skin, it can cause these small bumps. So now, I'm only using a tiny amount and really working it into my skin to ensure proper absorption.

It absorbs well, spreads easily without much patting, and provides amazing moisture. I usually hate sticky ampoules, but this one has excellent absorption. It's hydrating and really quenches the skin's thirst. (For my combination skin) When I wear makeup to work, my skin usually gets a bit oily in the afternoon. But when I use the Dokdo Ampoule under my makeup, there's no shine even until I get off work. It doesn't feel tight and seems to address deep dryness. In the morning, I skip toner, spray some mist, pat in the ampoule, apply sunscreen, and do my makeup. At night, I use a cotton pad to prep my skin, then apply essence, Dokdo Ampoule, and finish with a moisturizer. Even when trying to minimize my skincare routine, I find this level of care necessary for proper hydration. The ingredients are great, it has a calming effect, and overall, I think it's a well-rounded product.
ConsThe dropper doesn't draw up a lot of product, but I usually use small amounts anyway. I find that two drops from the dropper are enough to cover my whole face. It's actually sufficient, as using too much ampoule can slow absorption and cause pilling. Other than that, the only downside I can think of is the price. I bought mine during a sale on Hwahae, which seems to happen quite often.
TipI like to mix oil-like products with my essence or ampoule for evening care. So I've been combining one dropper of Dokdo Ampoule with some facial oil, then finishing with a moisturizer. My skin feels hydrated, light, and comfortable until the next morning.

I received the Dokto Ampoule after winning it in a giveaway around August, and I've been using it consistently ever since. I thought I had already left a review, but turns out I hadn't... I even took photos for it, but I can't find them now. So, I'm rushing to write this review! First off, as someone with super sensitive skin, I was able to use this product without any major blemishes from the start. Just the fact that it didn't cause any irritation was a blessing! Since I used it during the warmer months, I don't recall feeling like my skin lacked hydration. When I first started using it, I even recommended it to my friends because it was that good.
ConsHmm... I don't think I'll be repurchasing this product. After application, there was a bit of shine on my skin. Now, with the extreme temperature changes, I feel like it's not providing enough hydration. In fact, my skin feels a bit tight in the mornings. Also, when I spread it with my hands, it kept pilling, even after exfoliating! Given the current season, my skin is completely acting up. I've used most of the product, but I'm not sure whether I should switch to something else or not.

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 product feels rich, which means it's highly moisturizing and great for dry skin in winter. The initial application is smooth, though it takes time to absorb. The ingredients are clean and gentle on the skin, leaving it feeling comfortable.
ConsWhile it glides on nicely at first, the absorption process is very slow. Sometimes it pills, similar to dead skin cells. Therefore, I wouldn't recommend it before morning makeup. The dropper isn't well-designed - it tends to suck up the product past the glass tube and into the rubber part.
