Even my mom with extremely dry skin had a radiant glow all day long. It's such a pleasure to share the vanity with her, using this ultra-moisturizing serum!
ConsThose with very oily skin might find this serum challenging to use. I'd recommend this serum for people with thinner skin types.

This product, however, isn't overly sticky yet moisturizes better than regular creams. When applied, it gives my face a glow and feels genuinely hydrating. - Absorption The formula is slightly rich, so it doesn't feel like it's instantly sinking in. While it doesn't absorb quickly, you can feel it moisturizing and soothing dead skin cells as it's absorbed. - Hydration Among serums, this one provides excellent hydration, perfect for fall and winter. I typically follow a 3-step routine: toner, serum, and moisturizer. With this product, I could skip the moisturizer, which speaks to its hydrating power. - Wrinkle improvement While using this product, I noticed a slight improvement in wrinkles. Particularly, it seemed to have a subtle effect on my neck wrinkles, which have always been a concern for me. Considering I only used it for a week, I'm satisfied with the results. Other positives include its great ingredients and anti-aging properties. And the packaging is absolutely gorgeous! All my friends who visited asked about it.
Cons- Texture Due to its rich formula, it might be challenging to use in summer or for those with oily skin. - Feel on skin There's a slight stickiness, but that's somewhat unavoidable with hydrating products. My sibling, who has acne-prone oily skin, found it quite heavy. It seems best suited for dry to normal skin types, especially during this season.
TipWhen applied before makeup, it really helps the makeup adhere well and gives the skin a beautiful glow!

Product packaging First off, the glass container for this product is absolutely gorgeous. Plus, the dropper-style bottle for the ampoule made it really convenient to use. 2. User experience When I first saw this product, I expected it to have a runny consistency, but I was surprised to find it was actually quite rich. Because of its thick texture, it did feel a bit sticky when applied to the face. On the bright side, it gives your skin a beautiful glow after application!
Cons1. The product is said to have a black tulip scent, but honestly, to me it smells more like herbal medicine? It's not particularly pleasant in my opinion. However, I might be getting used to it after smelling it repeatedly... 2. The product itself feels quite sticky when applied, so much so that if you touch your cheek with your palm after application, your skin might stick to it!
TipSince your skin feels quite tacky until the product fully absorbs, I wouldn't recommend applying it in the morning before makeup. It's best used as part of your evening skincare routine.

As the weather suddenly turned cold, I was wondering how to combat dryness and dullness when I discovered this through The Hwahae Testers. I applied it religiously every evening for two full weeks. After using an exfoliating toner, I generously applied this cream. Despite my extremely dry skin, I felt it deeply nourished my skin without causing any blemishes. When I wake up in the morning, my skin looks radiant and healthy as if I'd slept with a mask on. This is the first skincare product that made me realize the importance of a rich texture beyond just the formula. I used to think that once a product was absorbed, that was it, regardless of how rich it felt. But after using this consistently for two weeks, my skin feels plumper. I suspect the improvement in my skin's appearance, not just immediately after application but over time, might be due to increased elasticity in my skin cells. The pores seem to have tightened, contributing to an overall improved complexion. While it feels a bit sticky upon application, it absorbs quickly for my dry skin type. It's rich enough that in summer, this alone might be sufficient.
ConsIt tends to pill slightly when I apply a moisturizing sunscreen on top.
TipIt might work better with a matte sunscreen or makeup. When applied in two layers at night, it works even better than a sleeping mask.

The texture is between sticky and firm. My skin was a bit uneven and my complexion wasn't uniform, but after using this product, my skin has become a bit brighter. Also, since it's a product that strengthens the skin barrier, even the stubborn acne on my cheeks disappeared. My skin has also developed a slight glow haha. I plan to repurchase this product once I finish it!!! The photos show before using the product and about a week after using it.
ConsI didn't find any disappointing aspects in using this product. If I had to pick something, maybe it's that the container was much smaller than I expected, which surprised me?
TipUse just one or two drops~ For those with smaller faces, one drop seems to be enough!!

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***The Hwahae Testers Review*** 1. The texture feels rich and thick, providing strong hydration. 2. For combination dehydrated skin that feels dry in the morning, applying this before bed eliminates morning dryness. 3. After fully absorbing into the skin, it leaves a moisturized feeling without excessive oiliness. 4. With consistent use, it gives the skin a beautiful glow. 5. The packaging is extremely luxurious and attractive. The dropper format allows for hygienic application.
Cons1. Due to its sticky texture, it doesn't apply smoothly. You need to wait for it to fully absorb before applying the next skincare step, which takes some time. 2. While the scent isn't overpowering, its unfamiliar nature might be off-putting to some.
TipAfter toning, apply small amounts gradually, allowing each layer to absorb fully. This layering technique will result in even more hydrated skin.

Lately my skin's been losing elasticity and lacking deep hydration After cleansing, I applied toner, then this serum, and finished with a light layer of moisturizer - my skin was glowing and deep dryness vanished!!! As someone with sensitive skin prone to dermatitis from incompatible products, I'm usually wary of trying new items But this caused no sensitivity at all, and most importantly!!!!! Those tiny bumps disappeared ㅠㅠ In weather like this, dryness-induced bumps are my biggest skin concern Whether it's due to its anti-inflammatory properties Or because it balanced my skin's oil and moisture levels I had zero blemishes while using it, and those little bumps actually went away ♥️ It'll be perfect on its own in summer And in winter, applying this then a small amount of cream on top would be ideal
ConsThe unique texture makes it a bit sticky, which is slightly disappointing But it doesn't pill or separate when layering other skincare or makeup on top, so it's fine
TipIf you have a skincare device at home, using it with this serum amplifies the effects!!! On weekends, I apply it generously then use my LED mask, and by the next day almost all my bumps are gone and I have that Inner Glow ♥️

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.ProsI really liked the convenient dropper on this ampoule. While it doesn't absorb super quickly into the skin, it didn't leave me feeling dry at all. When I applied makeup over it, there was no flaking, and it felt quite moisturizing. The glow after makeup application was truly beautiful - it gave that coveted 'glass skin' look that makes your complexion appear healthier. When my skin was extremely dry and tight, applying this eliminated the need for additional moisturizing steps. It's a bit sticky, but I'd recommend it to those who enjoy rich, hydrating products.
ConsThere were quite a few disappointing aspects to this product. First off, the finish isn't fresh - it leaves a sticky feeling on the skin. It's so rich in oils that it feels like applying thick honey directly to your face. The poor absorption was frustrating, requiring constant patting to get it to sink in. The scent is more sweet than fresh, very similar to sugar, which I personally don't enjoy. It claims to help with brightening, but I haven't noticed any effects yet. I even experienced some blemishes, though they started to subside after I stopped using the product. I don't think this would work well for oily skin types due to its rich, sticky texture. It might be suitable for dry skin types looking for a very emollient product. Overall, this product left me feeling disappointed in many ways.
TipIf you have extremely dry skin, this might be worth trying as it could potentially improve your skin's hydration levels!

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 Hwahae Testers Review + My skin type: Quite severe dehydrated skin (dry, but with intense dehydration; surface is okay with some moisturizing) + I'll just list the key points as it's a week before exams! → Texture: Firm but slightly runny consistency. → Hydration: Surface hydration seems good! Skin looks glowy and plump. Update 2020.4.11: Initially didn't feel much hydration, but with prolonged use, it seems to address deep dryness too! → Blemishes: No breakouts on my skin! Despite having sensitive skin, I didn't experience any issues, though I didn't notice a particular soothing effect. → Scent: It's a polarizing fragrance. Personally, I find it okay. At first, I wasn't keen, but as I used it, the slightly herbal scent made me feel like my skin was getting healthier haha. → Finish: There's a slight stickiness when first applied, but it absorbs quickly and feels fine! → Packaging: The glass bottle allows you to see the product, and the dropper makes it easy to control the amount, making it user-friendly.
ConsWhile I think it's a good product, I wasn't completely satisfied. → Absorption: It absorbs so quickly that unless you apply a lot, your face might turn red while applying. → Hydration: While I was satisfied with the surface hydration, those with severely dehydrated skin might not see significant results. I had severe dehydration, which improved after changing all my skincare, but I didn't notice much effect from this. It even felt slightly tight for about an hour after application. (Update 2020.4.11: Initially didn't feel much hydration, but with prolonged use, it seems to address deep dryness too!) → Scent: It really has a love-it-or-hate-it fragrance. However, those who dislike typical cosmetic scents might actually prefer this.
Tip+ Recommended skin types: Dry & normal skin without severe dehydration. It does make your skin look nice under makeup! + My daily skincare routine for dehydrated & dry skin → Morning: 3 layers of toner (TonyMoly Mocchi Toner) - Serum (Black Blossom Drop <this product>) - Emulsion (Physiogel) - <If needed: Moisturizer (TonyMoly Green Tea)> → Evening: Dokdo 1 & 2 layers of toner (Mocchi Toner) - Serum (Black Blossom Drop) - Emulsion (Physiogel) - Oil or Cream (TonyMoly Black Tea Oil or The SAEM Enriched Balm Cream) Feel free to ask questions, I'll respond promptly. You can also ask about tips related to other products!

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★Here's a review from The Hwahae Testers★ ★I found the hydration to be incredibly good, it feels rich and nourishing ★When applied before bed, my skin has a glow in the morning ★It has a substantial feel, similar to an ampoule ★The packaging is beautiful ★There's a slight sweet and herbal scent
Cons★Hmm... Initially, the product description and ingredients made its purpose unclear ★Even after using it, I thought it might be better marketed as a hydrating serum ★While many praise the dropper, I... couldn't say I liked it as I had to squeeze hard to get the product out
Tip★★I felt the application method is extremely important. For the first couple of days, I patted it in and it felt sticky, which worried me... ++;; But I discovered that smoothing it on solves the problem!! If you smooth it on, follow with your next skincare step, and go to sleep, you'll truly wake up with a glow!!
