Skin type: In the summer, my skin is combination, but during seasonal changes or in the winter, the U-zone becomes extremely dry, while the T-zone becomes oily and prone to breakouts, causing my skin to fluctuate frequently. Even on regular days, high-intensity workouts or hormonal changes can sometimes lead to facial flushing and breakouts. Usual (summer) skincare routine: Using Makgeolli Galactomyces Clear Skin to manage exfoliation, followed by Eucerin DermatoCLEAN Toner for 3-5 layers, and then applying Dr.G Red Blemish Relief Moisturizer. Recently established seasonal change skincare routine: (Daytime) Makgeolli Galactomyces Clear Skin - Eucerin DermatoCLEAN Toner for 3-5 layers - Dr.G Red Blemish Relief Moisturizer - Applying a drop of Aromatica Hohouba Oil only to the U-zone area. However, I've been noticing some increased dryness lately, so I started using the Estée Lauder Revitalizing Supreme+ Night Intensive Restorative Crème, which I won from the Hwahae Trial, about a week ago as my night care. The routine is (at night): Makgeolli Galactomyces Clear Skin - Eucerin DermatoCLEAN Toner for 3-5 layers - Estée Lauder Revitalizing Supreme+ Night Intensive Restorative Crème. The good point is that even though I'm only using the toner and cream without any lotion or milk-type products to create a moisture barrier, I noticed a significant improvement in my skin's dryness the next day after applying makeup. Normally, my U-zone would feel very dry and tight 4-5 hours after applying makeup, but now it doesn't feel that way at all. Even though my T-zone is still quite oily, even in the winter, the oil-free, moisturizing cream didn't make a big difference in the oil production in that area compared to when I used products with oil. Honestly, when I was in my 20s, I didn't really notice much benefit from products with such rich nutrition, but now that I'm in my mid-30s, my skin seems to be better able to absorb and appreciate the deeper nourishment, rather than just relying on simple oil-water balance. It seems like my skin is starting to need more nutrition as I age. I'll add some more detailed review. It seems that the frequent skin troubles I've experienced around my chin, philtrum, and nose area in the past few years were due to lack of oil and nutrition. Even after the Hwahae Trial review period ended, I've continued using this cream every night, applying it right after 3 layers of toner. When I wake up, the small bumps around my chin and mouth area have completely disappeared, and my skin texture has significantly improved. The persistent internal dryness I used to struggle with during seasonal changes and winter is also almost gone now. I'm so pleased with the results that I'll add one more star to my review.
ConsDespite having an oily texture, people like me with combination skin can still work very well with this product. However, it may be too oily for those with dry skin. Even though it's a single-type product, it doesn't come with a separate spatula. The fragrance of the mother's cosmetics can be a bit strong, so it may be a matter of personal preference.
TipI recommend that those with similar skin types to mine use only this cream, in addition to toner, for their night care routine. It is so nourishing that it can be used on its own. Alternatively, you can apply this product only to dry areas and use your usual products on the rest of your face, which is also a good method.

I really liked the feeling of it spreading well without being too thick. # Irritation I didn't experience any irritation while using it! Even though I have sensitive skin, I didn't have any trouble or breakouts. # Moisturizing Power I usually do a lot of face masks in the evenings, and after doing a mask, I would apply a lot of product. But even without a mask, the moisturizing power was great - it felt really hydrating and nourishing!
ConsThe fragrance was a bit disappointing It had a similar scent to the cosmetics my mom used when I was young ㅠㅠ The artificial fragrance was not very pleasant to me! I generally don't like perfume-like scents, so that might have made it worse for me. But in any case, I didn't like the fragrance at all!!!!

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> - Skin Type: I have combination skin and a slight oiliness develops a little while after washing my face. - Volume: The price is a bit steep, but the volume is more than I expected considering my skin type. Since I apply only a small amount, I think it's sufficient. - Lasting Power: It seems to use a highly concentrated moringa seed extract, so even a tiny amount keeps my skin moisturized for a long time. - Breakouts: I don't have very sensitive skin, but I sometimes get breakouts. However, I didn't experience any breakouts while using this product. Though, I only used a small amount. - Spreadability: The spreadability was good. As it's an oily product, it glides on smoothly. - Absorption: Considering the formula and oiliness, the absorption is relatively good. - Recommended Skin Type: I'd recommend this to dry skin types!
Cons- Fragrance: I generally prefer simple and clean fragrances, and I'm a bit sensitive to scents. But this product's fragrance is quite strong - it reminds me of my mom's old makeup when I was a kid! - Texture: At first, I applied too much without knowing, and it felt like there was a film on my skin, which was uncomfortable. - Ingredients: Those who use the Hwahae app are usually very interested in product ingredients, right? I'm a bit disappointed with the ingredients in this product, as I'm not sure why colorants are included. - Not Recommended for: Oily skin types should only use a tiny amount of this product.
TipSince this product has anti-aging benefits, if applying it all over your face feels burdensome, you could try using it only on the eye and lip areas.

In fact, this cream was surprisingly thick, even to the point where I could have spread it on a bagel. To apply it thinly, I had to rub it in a bit more, but since my skin is sensitive (or rather, I'm just too lazy), I ended up applying it a bit more generously. The oily feeling only lasted briefly, as I soon found myself thinking, 'Wait, what? I'm supple?' and 'Why am I so soft?' The cream left behind a smooth, non-greasy finish. And when I woke up and went to the bathroom, I felt like I was witnessing a sunrise on my face. Touching my skin, it felt like the Silk Road. Softer and smoother after a night's sleep, my skin quality was like I was only 6 months into this life. I couldn't stop touching my face and showing it off to everyone.
ConsIt has a Miami-like scent, what you might call a 'mom's makeup' smell. Some people may dislike the fragrance, as it is quite strong and overpowering.
TipIt's best to apply the cream in small, dotted amounts across your face, rather than using a large amount all at once. This will help it spread more easily. This is probably a well-known tip, but it's my first time using a rich cream like this.

Today, November 1st, I have been using it for a total of 1 week. The women at home have all tried it and I'll leave a review on the common points. 💃🏼 Mid-to-late 20s woman - Highly sensitive, acne-prone skin, constantly switching between dry and oily Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 💃🏼 Mid-to-late 30s woman - Skin is close to normal, small breakouts rarely occur when using incompatible cosmetics. Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 💃🏼 Mid-to-late 60s woman - Skin of steel, can use any cosmetics without any issues Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 💚The product did not cause any trouble for my sensitive skin that is reactive to cosmetics. When I first received it, I tested it on my chin area just in case, but used it without any breakouts! Especially for my extremely sensitive/reactive skin, products with strong fragrances and rich ingredients from department stores often don't work for me, but this one was fine. 💚It's just right in the middle of moisture and oil. We all applied it in the order of toner, ampoule, moisturizer, and night cream. Usually, night creams need to have a certain amount of oil to seal in the previous products and maintain the moisture until morning. But this product provided the right amount of moisture and oil, so my skin felt comfortable when I woke up the next day. 💚It feels like it's boosting my skin's regenerative ability. I used it after getting a scaling and peeling at the dermatologist on the first day, and the peeling and redness subsided faster than usual. It seems the effect of this product helped with that. 💚The texture is easy to apply. It's not too thick or too thin (the kind that forms a little peak when you make a horn shape with your hand), so it's very convenient to apply and massage into the face. Thick textures can be difficult to spread, and very watery ones make you wonder if it's actually absorbing or just sitting on your hand. 💚As soon as I apply it, it feels so smooth and moisturized. I'm glad I could help!
Cons🔥First of all, the fragrance is really like the strong department store cosmetic smell, haha. It's exactly the same as when I used to sneak and use my mom's powder when I was little! I'm quite sensitive to fragrances, but my mom, who has experienced this scent a lot, didn't dislike it.. It seems to be a case-by-case thing. 🔥Looking at the ingredients now, they don't seem that great😂😂 People with allergies or those who are extremely sensitive should definitely do a patch test..
Tip🐝 My skin has been in an extreme state lately, so I couldn't upload any skin photos. 😢 Due to the Hwahae Trial Reviewer review period, I only wrote about 1 week of use, but I'll add a 1-month usage review later.

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 Event Review ** *Spreadability: The texture is similar to a rich cream, so I thought it would be difficult to apply, but when I put it on my face, it spread very smoothly and softly. *Moisturizing: My T-zone is oily, and my cheeks become extremely dry when the cold wind blows, but even though it looks like an oily cream, it absorbed well into my skin about 10 minutes after application. Depending on your skin type, you may feel it's either 70% oil and 30% moisture, or 80% oil and 20% moisture. Even in the morning, my lips don't get that white, flaky look, and my skin stays moisturized. It's amazing. *Mom's Review: My mom and I used it only at night, and since I have oily skin, I got a pimple or two on my nose and forehead. But my mom didn't have any trouble with breakouts, and she was happy that her skin looked plump and healthy in the morning.
Cons*Fragrance: The fragrance... Well, I'm sensitive to scents, but this one is just too strong and intense. It's the same as the cream you'd find in a public bathhouse. I applied a generous amount before bed, but the fragrance lingered, making me feel nauseous... If you're sensitive to fragrances, I'd recommend testing it out first before buying. / My mom said she could smell the fragrance of the skincare product. *Price: As expected, the high-end basic skincare items at department stores are usually over 10,000 won, and this one is 15,500 won.
TipAs a night cream, it does have a rich, oily texture, but my mom, who is in her late 50s, said her skin stayed moisturized until the morning, so she really liked it. It seems like a good cream for people in their 50s and above.

I've been using it for about a week. First of all, the packaging is so pretty. ㅎㅎ I have combination skin with dry U-zone and oily T-zone, so I usually apply creams everywhere except the T-zone. This cream had just the right amount of oil content that I prefer. It has a subtle glow without feeling greasy. The texture is very dense and bouncy, but it spreads thinly and adheres well. This type of cream is something I've never seen before. ㅋㅋ It's hydrating and nourishing. I didn't experience any breakouts either! When I apply it before bed and wake up in the morning, my cheeks feel so moisturized. ㅎ
ConsThe scent is like the typical Estée Lauder department store cosmetic smell. I was expecting a moringa scent, but it's a bit disappointing that it has a somewhat artificial fragrance, though not overwhelmingly strong.
TipJust a small amount on the fingertips, applied in a thin, double layer, is just right.

Good absorption. Absorbs almost immediately after application, not sticky. 2. Although it has an oily texture, it does not feel greasy. (The formula itself is dense. It feels like the nutrients are concentrated! However, if you apply too much, it will become an oil explosion!) 3. Provides enough moisture to be used in summer and fall. 4. After application, the face feels more supple and bouncy. My mom noticed the effects more than I did. 5. Even though my skin is prone to breakouts with any product, I did not experience any acne. 6. The packaging is very luxurious.
Cons1. Price range is around 150,000 won... 2. The fragrance and cosmetic smell is extremely strong ㅠㅠ. It smells like an adult's cosmetic. The cosmetic smell lingers on the face even after 2 hours ㅠㅠ 3. It's in a jar type, and I personally don't prefer jar types for hygiene reasons. 4. If you apply too much in clumps, it becomes greasy.
TipFor those in their 20s, it can be used as an eye cream substitute. I'm using it as an eye cream because of the fragrance. The effects seem to be more noticeable on older mothers.
