I love how hydrating it is. Sometimes I even use it in place of my toner. It's nice when I want something lightly scented, without being too overpowering.
ConsThere's a unique stickiness that remains even after it absorbs. It's okay when I apply an emulsion on top, though. This might be great for dry skin types.
TipI sometimes use this serum as a replacement for my toner.

Even for my dry skin in summer, it provides enough richness that I can get by with just this. Personally, I think it has the perfect texture for those with dry skin. It's neither too light nor too sticky - just right for summer. I don't feel any deep dryness even when I only apply a moisturizer after this serum. Yet, the serum itself isn't too heavy. I'm satisfied with the product just for this reason alone. (This review is mainly for dry skin types) ☆ It applies smoothly, pumps out well, and being a functional product makes me feel like my skin will improve ☆ No blemishes
ConsGiven its somewhat high price, I wouldn't buy it readily without waiting for a sale. Unless I felt a dramatic effect, I'm not sure. I've bought two bottles, but I'll decide after using them up. While it has a nice texture and finish for dry skin types, those with oily or combination skin might find it sticky. I'd recommend winter use for these skin types. The fragrance is a bit like an old-fashioned floral scent. It reminds me of my mom's cosmetics when I was young, which I like, but I'm not sure about others' opinions.

No joke! I'll definitely be coming back to this product next winter. Texture: It's thick and rich with a noticeable oil content. I'd recommend it more for night care than daily use. It takes some time to absorb, so I usually apply serum, do something else (like drying my hair), and then finish with this cream. Firmness Improvement: As someone with thin, sensitive, dry skin who hasn't had plump skin since puberty (my mom says: 'How is this the skin of someone in their mid-20s?'), this cream has given me a rebirth. The feeling of my skin becoming firm is so amazing that I keep touching my face. Is this what anti-aging is...? It's a whole new world. It also gives my face a beautiful glow. However, it doesn't solve the root cause of loss of elasticity, so once you stop using it, your skin goes back to being dull. Oil and Moisture Balance: Usually, by morning my skin would be parched with only excess oil, but with this, it stays moisturized until the next morning (not completely free from deep dryness, but comparatively hydrated). Maybe because the oil and moisture balance is right, there's less oil production on my face.
ConsIt has a strong floral scent that reminds me of my mom's cosmetics. The sticky finish makes my hair keep sticking to my face... It might be difficult for someone in their 20s to use this in seasons other than winter.
TipSince it has a rich texture, use a cream with a silky finish after this (I'm using Laneige Water Bank for combination to dry skin). Apply cream after this product has slightly dried to reduce pilling. Avoid using this before applying makeup.

When I first tried a sample of this product, it left my skin feeling as hydrated as if I'd used a sheet mask, without any tightness. So I decided to purchase the full size. However, when I applied it all over my face before my cream, like I would with other serums, it felt a bit too sticky. It seemed to make all the products I applied afterwards pill. So now, I've gone back to my old routine of applying a lightweight serum and moisturizer first. Then, a little while later, if my skin starts to feel tight or dry in certain areas, I'll apply a thin layer of this product just on those dry patches. This method works perfectly - my skin doesn't feel tight, it's not overwhelmingly sticky, and it's just right. In conclusion, while it might be too rich to use as your main product, it's perfect as a supplementary hydration boost.
ConsAs mentioned above, it's a bit too sticky to use as your main serum, which can feel a bit heavy on the skin. That's why I mainly use it as a final step to supplement my routine.
TipIf you apply too much at once, it can feel sticky and cause pilling. But if you use a small amount and pat it in thoroughly to help it absorb, it definitely feels less sticky! If one layer isn't enough (though I found it plenty hydrating), it might be better to apply multiple thin layers.

ConsMy skin tends to get sensitive easily, and the texture is quite rich. Depending on my skin condition, it can sometimes feel too sticky, causing itchiness that makes me want to wash it off. It would be nice if the packaging was transparent so I could see how much product is left.

It absorbs well, leaving my skin feeling firm and plump. The ingredients are gentle, making it a versatile serum suitable for regular use. For an anti-wrinkle product, it's surprisingly lightweight yet effectively moisturizing, providing excellent hydration without feeling heavy.
ConsThe rich texture might feel a bit sticky to some, which could be a hit or miss depending on personal preference. Also, I'm not a fan of the scent. It has a strong floral fragrance that reminds me of old-fashioned cosmetics. I wish they had toned down the fragrance a bit.

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 have confirmed that this functional serum truly lives up to its name. Upon application, you can immediately feel it tightening and firming your skin. While I've only been using it for a week and can't speak to its long-term effects just yet, it seems like an ideal product for winter use. You can definitely sense its impact on your skin. What I love most is the packaging - it's opaque and completely sealed, ensuring that the beneficial ingredients remain protected and potent.
ConsAs someone with dry, occasionally blemish-prone combination skin, I found the main drawback of this product to be its stickiness. While it's not excessively sticky, there's enough tackiness to make it a bit bothersome, especially for nighttime use. It's fine for morning application before makeup, but using it at night can be quite inconvenient. I wonder if this is due to the highly concentrated nutrients. There's a slight scent, which doesn't bother me personally.
TipI'd recommend layering a hydrating moisturizer either before or after using this product. I apply aloe vera before and the Blanc Doux moisturizer after, which helps counteract some of the stickiness.

This makes it very convenient to use. - It has a slight oily feel that gives your face a nice glow and leaves it feeling moisturized! - I loved the subtle aquatic scent. - I've tried many serums before, but this one stands out as it combats dryness without causing any blemishes!
Cons- Due to its intense hydration, it feels a bit sticky right after application. However, once it absorbs, it leaves a pleasantly firm feeling on the skin! - Even though I don't have super sensitive skin, I experienced a slight tingling sensation when applying it for the first couple of days, which was a bit disappointing.
TipThis would be great for those with dry skin like mine! I applied it between my toner and ampoule steps, and thanks to this, I was able to avoid dryness even in winter!

It's a serum you can use without any fuss. It's a godsend for dry skin. Manyo Factory's strength lies in the clean formulation of most of their cosmetics.
Cons- Scent - Stickiness - Needs to be followed by another cream after absorption Firstly, I'd like to mention that the fragrance is too strong. With so many skincare products with good ingredients on the market these days, it's disappointing that this strongly scented serum isn't more appealing. Also, it's stickier than expected. Usually, serums are thought to have a silky texture, but the stickiness here makes it burdensome when applying other creams.
TipWhen you're too lazy to apply cream, pump it twice and massage it into your face. Your skin will have a nice glow. However, be cautious of potential allergic reactions.

I'm sharing my experience after using this product for a moderate amount of time. The hydration it provides is quite good.
ConsI'm not usually someone who pays much attention to the scent of cosmetics, you know? But this one is incredibly bothersome. The smell is so peculiar that those sensitive to fragrances should immediately pass on this. It would be more tolerable if it were just the natural scent of the ingredients, but they've mixed in some strange fragrance that makes it even worse. Also, the absorption is terrible for a serum - it's extremely sticky and doesn't sink into the skin. I regretted applying it the first evening because it all transferred onto my pillow. The level of stickiness surpasses even snail creams. I don't want to use it even in winter. The absorption is painfully slow - there's no way I could apply this on busy mornings.
