ConsThe container was a bit on the heavy side, making it slightly inconvenient to hold and use

No ✔Hydration ❤️❤️❤️❤️ I love layering products, so I used this generously. It absorbs quickly, which made layering very effective for hydration. If it had glycerin or hyaluronic acid, it might have been sticky, but the simple ingredients made it light and refreshing to use. ✔Soothing ❤️❤️ While I didn't see dramatic results, my blemishes did improve slightly while using this product. I think it's less about the mugwort's effects and more about how well it hydrates, balancing oil and moisture. Unlike some thicker cica creams that don't help much with soothing, this lighter formula actually helped reduce my blemishes.
Cons✔Extracts? 💔💔💔💔💔 They may call it an extract, but we don't really know how much is actually in there. I'm quite skeptical about extract marketing, so this aspect was disappointing. I've seen ridiculous marketing on social media claiming that since water is usually the first ingredient in most cosmetics, we're just paying for expensive water, and that we should use products with extracts as the first ingredient. What nonsense! They've already diluted those extracts with water anyway. Moving on... I hope we'll see some regulations or guidelines about extracts someday. I wonder if we'll have another incident like the sunscreen controversy.
TipFor combination dehydrated skin, layering works well. The blemishes on my cheeks improved significantly.

It's not sticky at all, and I even use it for blemish soothing by applying it on cotton pads and placing them on my forehead or chin. I discovered this product after the mugwort essence craze(?). It's non-irritating, doesn't sting my eyes, and feels refreshing. It's just great for generous, everyday use.
ConsIt's neither good nor bad. Due to my seborrheic scalp, my face tends to be a bit oily too, so I use this to reduce heat and soothe blemishes. However, it's just refreshing without any significant effects. It's like lightly misting a dry land with water - just a slight touch of hydration. There's no real moisturizing effect at all. I'd recommend this to those with very oily skin.

It provides hydration, soothes, cools, and absorbs quickly. It seems to somewhat refine skin texture as well.
ConsThe main advantage of Scinic products - their cost-effectiveness - doesn't seem to apply to this particular item.

The fresh mugwort aroma is lovely! It's a product you apply after cleansing, before your toner. It's effective for soothing the skin.
ConsI think it would be better if it came in a tube container. I'll share more thoughts on areas for improvement after using it a bit longer.

My friend with cystic acne saw significant improvement after using this. My skin also became much smoother after I started using it. I bought another one to gift to a friend who also struggles with cystic acne. It's truly amazing for calming the skin!
ConsThe bottle design is a bit disappointing. I prefer to apply it directly to my skin, but I think men who aren't used to skincare might end up absorbing it all into their palms. It would be great if it came in a mist form like other Laneige products.

I loved the simple ingredients and skin-friendly formula. Being a water-based toner, it felt light and non-sticky even when sprayed generously. When my skin gets irritated, I tend to experience severe redness on my cheeks, but soaking a pad with this toner and applying it helped calm my skin down nicely.
ConsLike Simple toner, this one is very watery, which makes it a bit too drying for use during fall and winter.

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 product is a safe choice as a first-step toner for sensitive skin. It has a lightweight texture and absorbs quickly. I recommend using it as an exfoliating toner or as a skin pack. It's particularly helpful for soothing the skin during seasonal changes or when your skin is feeling super sensitive. Your complexion will feel more comfortable after use.
ConsThe hydration might be a bit lacking, so if you have dry skin, it's best to layer it with additional moisturizing products.

It's especially nice during dry seasons like fall or spring. The mugwort scent is so subtle it disappears quickly, so it's not bothersome at all. The calming effect is really excellent, and it's particularly effective when you're dealing with blemishes.
ConsI bought it as an essence, but it feels a bit too light for that purpose. The texture is more similar to a toner. I think it would have been better if it was slightly thicker.

After using this for several months, I've noticed it provides good hydration and helps calm my skin. My blemishes have significantly reduced! It's gentle, so I found myself reaching for it often.
ConsCompared to the original, this is more expensive. The price point might be a bit steep for students.
TipIt works well when I apply it along with the Single Origin Treatment Essence and mugwort cream.
