This is a review of that experience! To be honest, Lancome's cleansing oil is famous, but I tried the Tamanu cream from Miwa, as they said it contained Tamanu oil and was a lightweight cream that even oily skin types could use. My initial impression was that the cream had a gel-like texture, so it felt lightweight. Absorption was quick when using the cream alone, but when used with other products, the absorption time varied depending on the product. When I used it at 8am, by around 2pm after work, my skin had a slight oiliness, which was just right. :) The most important part is whether it caused any breakouts. In conclusion, the cream did not cause any acne for me. Even though I have skin that is prone to breakouts, while using the cream consistently, I did have some breakouts come and go, which was likely due to my lifestyle and diet. The scent was like the oil, a subtle aroma. I'm not very sensitive to scents, so it didn't bother me.
ConsI didn't have any major issues. When using it alone, it felt a bit drying for my dehydrated skin. However, since I use toners, ampoules, and essences to provide hydration, it wasn't too uncomfortable. In fact, the lightweight texture made it easy to layer with those other products.
TipI previously used and really liked the discontinued Miwa Minah cream, so I'm glad this one was also a success. I want to try more Tamanu oil products, and I think it could be good for those who are afraid of oils, or for those who need to layer a lot of products. I like to mix this cream with centella powder and apply it to my acne-prone areas, and it works great. :) Since it's in a jar, for hygiene reasons, it's better to transfer a small amount to a sample container and use that up before refilling.

It's hydrating and lightweight, and doesn't leave a dry feeling after application.
ConsThe only downside is that it comes in a jar format, and the price may be a bit of a concern.
TipFor oily skin types, this is a non-greasy moisturizer that can be used even in the winter.

The texture is light like a gel cream, but it doesn't lack in hydration, so the moisture balance is just right. And perhaps thanks to the tamanu oil, it's gentle and good for calming breakouts. The green color and herbal or oriental scent also gave me a soothing, healing feeling when applying it.
ConsThe scent was okay, but it might be divisive. And for those with extremely dry skin, the hydration might fall a bit short. But for my standards, it was just right. (combination skin)
TipYou can buy it from the Naver Store at a discounted price in the 20,000 won range.

Even if it absorbs a little slowly or the ingredients don't quite agree with me, any issues usually clear up by the next day. So far, I haven't had any major problems using it! It's moisturizing, but the hydration isn't quite enough. I feel like my skin is drying out a bit faster than usual. (These days, I'm not using the air conditioner as much since the weather has gotten cooler.) Since it's a lightweight formula, I've been applying it twice. Even with the extra layer, it spreads easily without feeling sticky or heavy! I had a cystic pimple on my temple that had just started to heal before I started using this moisturizer. After I squeezed it, the blemish disappeared without a trace. I can't say for sure if it was because of this moisturizer, but it didn't cause any new breakouts, and the scarring healed up quickly.
ConsI felt like the moisturization was lacking. I couldn't really tell if it changed the texture of my skin or anything like that. But it's a lightweight product that I was able to use without any issues.
TipFor those with dry skin like mine who feel the hydration is insufficient, I'd recommend using a nourishing cream or an anti-aging cream as a spot treatment. Even using both together, the formula is light enough that I plan to finish the whole jar!

You need to apply it again for the film to form and get a moisturized feeling?? haha It's gentle so this can be used on all skin types The case is glass? Tempered glass maybe haha It's that kind of material, not plastic! The color is also a perfect green-brown shade~~ The product itself is also soft and it's a watery moisturizing cream. It would be great to use in the summer!!
ConsAt first, the mugwort scent wasn't that strong, but the more I apply it, the stronger it gets ใ ใ ใ ใ ใ Ah, I thought the mugwort scent was a healthy one, but because of the fragrance, I don't want to apply it anymore ใ ใ ใ Hing

So, while looking for a moisturizing cream that wouldn't feel heavy during the summer, I was selected as a Hwahae Trial Reviewer and happily used this product. **Just before using this, I had purchased a lightweight moisturizing cream from a popular brand during a Hwahae sale, and while that one was very light, it started feeling tight on my skin within a minute of application. So, I had to apply my heavy winter cream on top of it to feel comfortable.** In that regard, this Tamanu cream was satisfying as it provided the lightweight yet moisturizing effect I was looking for. And I'm very satisfied with the gentle ingredients as well. The texture is like a slightly glossy gel? I think that would work well especially in the summer.
ConsScentโ Hmm...the scent...ใ ใ This is a matter of personal preference, so it's just my opinion. I didn't particularly like the scent. I would have preferred no scent at all.ใ ใ ใ I guess this is because they tried to balance the ingredients, but I think I'd rather have a nice fragrance and less ideal ingredients than this peculiar scent. I can't quite describe it, but it's kind of a 'whew~' type of smell that's similar to a plastic-like aroma, but more natural in feel. It's a unique scent that's hard to put into words. If that scent was improved, I would consider repurchasing! @.,@)/'
TipI used this cream along with a moisture ampoule, and the combination helped address the dryness that the ampoule alone couldn't fully resolve. This cream provided the core 'moisture' that I was looking for, leaving my skin feeling nicely hydrated. I recommend this product.

Even though I have an oily complexion, I didn't feel like it was too heavy or greasy - a little went a long way for me!
ConsWhenever I try a new skincare product or something doesn't quite agree with me, I tend to break out or get little bumps. This product was the same way for me. I think it's because I have sensitive, reactive skin, but I'd still recommend being cautious with it.

Contains beneficial tamanu oil I was a bit worried before using it, as I don't usually like applying oils on my dry skin. However, the cream has a very lightweight texture, and you can hardly tell that it contains tamanu oil. Tamanu oil is said to be good for sensitive skin, so that's a big plus! 2. Contains centella extract Since I have a bit of acne, I tend to like products with centella extract. If you're someone who responds well to centella, you should definitely give this a try! 3. Helps fade discoloration After my acne clears up, I always struggle with discoloration, but I've noticed a slight improvement in that area even after using this for just a short time. Despite being a dry-skinned person, I didn't feel any dryness with this summer cream as it provided great hydration. The lightweight texture was also a big plus. This seems like a great option for acne-prone, summer skin.
Cons1. The color is a very deep, greenish-blue, and it leaves a slightly green tint on the skin, so I can only use it at night before bed, not under makeup during the day. 2. It would be great if a spatula was included in the packaging.
TipYou can use this cream as a DIY face mask by mixing about 3 times the usual amount of cream with a bit of water, and applying it to a sheet mask. I sometimes do this when my skin is feeling sensitive, and the texture of this cream works well for that purpose too. I've used it as a soothing face mask on occasion.

I have combination skin, and the T-zone was fine, but the oil zone became too dry in less than an hour after application. I used it like a mist. The moisturizing power is excellent. Also, as I have troubled skin, the redness was significantly reduced. It felt lightweight when I applied it before bed.
ConsThe scent is unbearable... I can't even describe it in words. Even though it's a moisturizing cream, the moisture seems a bit lacking. It felt quite dry after application. You have to apply it multiple times. The packaging is too heavy for the product. It doesn't feel high-end at all.
TipWhen I applied it generously before bed, the redness was a bit reduced the next day.

My skin is thin and sensitive, but there was no irritation. I've been using tamanu oil at home occasionally, so the fragrance was also not irritating. After using it for almost 10 days, it seems like the niacinamide whitening ingredients have made my skin tone a bit more even. There was no irritation, and it felt light and good when applied.
ConsThere might be a slight floral scent. I couldn't find any major downsides, but those with oily skin might find it a bit greasy.
TipMy skin is reddish and sensitive, so I find it best to just use a toner, a moisturizing skin, and then go straight to a cream. If you apply too much, it might cause breakouts, so it's better to apply lightly. I don't use it before makeup because I'm worried about the oil, but I layer it on a bit more thickly before bed. It's a good product.
