As a BB cream, it has a slight grayish tint but still gives a radiant look. As the hydration evaporates over time, you start to notice the pearlescent particles. It maintains a glow even after hours of wear. Perfect for casual outings in the neighborhood.
ConsThe scent is not great (personal preference). It's a bit disappointing that it doesn't provide sun protection.
TipWorks well when mixed with foundation (due to the color).

The lightweight texture spreads easily, which I, as someone who prefers thinner formulas, really appreciate. It applies smoothly on the skin, feeling as moisturizing as a hydrating cream. I'd recommend this to those who prefer a light, natural makeup look. Also, despite having slightly sensitive skin, I didn't experience any blemishes after use, and it gives a nice glow to dry skin.
ConsFour hours after application... At first, it brightened my complexion as if I'd used a brightening moisturizer, but it quickly reverted to my natural skin tone. As someone who doesn't wear heavy makeup, it looked like my makeup had worn off, leaving me bare-faced. You could call it natural-looking, but if you're expecting long-lasting coverage, you might find it lacking.

Buttery smooth application! 2. Brightens complexion beautifully! - Over time, it adapts to my skin tone, making it look radiant. I usually have an ashy complexion, but after applying this, I've received many compliments on how glowing I look. 3. Impressive coverage! - It fills in pores meticulously, and as time passes, my skin develops a luminous, egg-shell-like sheen. I didn't expect much coverage from a BB cream, but I was pleasantly surprised by how well it concealed imperfections. This product defies the stereotype that moisturizing products are sticky.
Cons1. Fragrance - The scent can be inconsistent, sometimes sweet like grapes, other times giving me a headache. It seems to vary depending on my condition. Those sensitive to fragrances should take note. 2. Semi-matte finish - While it's moisturizing and not sticky, as someone with extremely dry and sensitive skin, I felt a slight dryness. However, despite this sensation, the BB cream gives a dewy look, so my skin doesn't appear dry. 3. Pore-clogging - Although the coverage is undeniably good, when wearing a mask in hot weather, the product tends to settle into pores, necessitating touch-ups. 4. Weak staying power Additional note: Please add sun protection to this BB cream!
TipMixing this BB cream with foundation in a 1:1 ratio enhances skin's glow and improves longevity.

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 gold standard of semi-matte finishes! I'm absolutely thrilled with how it keeps my skin moisturized underneath while leaving a perfectly powder-fresh finish on top. It's ideal for these times when we need to keep wearing masks! It doesn't transfer much onto the mask, so I use it daily. This advantage more than makes up for any drawbacks. The application is phenomenal - its moisturizing formula gives it excellent spreadability and adherence. It applies in an ultra-thin layer, so you can build it up without it caking. I love the subtle, fine shimmer that gives a radiant effect! You might think a matte finish wouldn't have any glow, but the shimmer makes it look dewy.
ConsThe price of 55,000 won is quite steep. While the quality justifies it, it might be a bit much for those new to BB creams or for students. As for the shade, I was surprised it matched my skin tone so well, as I don't consider myself particularly fair-skinned. I'd recommend this more for those who use shade 23 rather than 21. The coverage... while it does provide some coverage, it didn't conceal everything (like acne scars) to my complete satisfaction.
TipSince the shade didn't match my complexion perfectly, I found that using it over a makeup base and then as a coverage and finishing step worked well for me. (If you find the shade doesn't quite match, give this method a try!)

Compared to other BB creams, this one is thinner and smoother! It applies easily and adheres well to the skin. Before using it, I saw many reviews saying the staying power wasn't great, but I found it wasn't as bad as I expected. I also barely noticed any darkening. However, the product has a bit of a glow, so it might feel better to use in spring, fall, and winter rather than summer. It does transfer to masks, of course. After applying, your skin really looks good - not in an artificial 'I'm wearing makeup' way, but more like 'bare skin that just looks great'! As someone with sensitive skin who can't use just any cosmetic, I didn't experience any blemishes! When products don't agree with me, I usually get small bumps that develop into various sizes, but nothing appeared with this. Although it contains four less-than-ideal ingredients, they didn't significantly affect me. As a Hwahae Tester, I found more pros than cons during my two weeks of use.
ConsJust two things! The scent and the color. The scent is like grapes? It's a sweet fragrance, but stronger than expected. I wish they had toned down the unnecessary fragrance... As for the color, I use shade 22, but it was barely different from my skin tone. Maybe slightly darker? If you use shade 21, it would definitely be too dark for you. Since there's only one shade, I think those who use shades 23-25 might find it gives them a slightly brighter look.
TipI applied it with a Skinfood wedge puff, which enhanced the glow and improved adherence! To maintain the smooth skin appearance for longer, I lightly sprayed some Urban Decay setting spray. As expected, this helped the beautiful skin finish last longer. For those who found the staying power lacking, try applying with a wedge puff spritzed with setting spray, then finish with another light mist of setting spray. This way, you can enjoy beautiful-looking skin all day long!

As someone who typically only uses a thin layer of cushion foundation, I was concerned it might apply too thickly. However, thanks to its moisturizing texture, it's perfect for spreading thinly with your fingers. I prefer a natural, sheer makeup look after using a pearlescent base, so I appreciated that this BB cream provides a subtle glow. Lastly, I love that it has a floral scent rather than a typical cosmetic fragrance!
ConsThe darker shade 23 is still too light for my skin tone. While it does brighten the complexion, you'd need to use it sparingly or mix it with a darker shade. This product has a heavy, grayish cast. As a result, I only use it very thinly for quick errands. I knew it was a single-shade BB cream, but I hoped it would be more natural-looking. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. Also, when you have blemishes or uneven skin texture, the pearl finish actually accentuates these issues, making them more noticeable. Another downside is that you need to use a separate sunscreen. Lastly, given its high price point, I probably won't repurchase.

I have combination dehydrated skin prone to blemishes and scarring. I usually mix Age20's and Dermacol products. This one absorbs well and is incredibly hydrating. My usual products tend to emphasize dead skin cells in the afternoon, but this one keeps my skin moisturized for so long that there's no flaking even later in the day. It also gives a subtle glow that makes my skin look healthy, but it's not artificial - just a natural, soft radiance. I personally love the scent too. It adheres well to the skin, making makeup last longer. I don't often touch up my makeup, and even when it starts to fade, it doesn't settle into my pores, which is great. Despite having blemish-prone skin, I didn't experience any breakouts during the two-week trial period.
ConsThe downsides are the high price and the light coverage. I have a lot of acne scars that make my skin look uneven, and this doesn't cover them well. There's also a slight grayish tint typical of BB creams, which might not be suitable for a bright, radiant makeup look.
TipMixing it with Dermacol foundation provides coverage while still making your skin look great. Finishing with a light dusting of No Sebum Powder can extend the wear time even more!

I usually go for matte makeup and use powder, but this will definitely be an advantage in winter. Currently, I'm using powder since it's hot summer and I'm wearing a mask. # Adherence It adheres perfectly to the skin with a 'pat'. It gives a healthy look, and I experienced minimal breakdown on my skin. # Blemishes The ingredients aren't particularly healthy. However, I didn't notice any specific blemishes appearing.
Cons# Color The grayish tint typical of BB creams was the most disappointing aspect. So, I use this BB cream followed by a concealer with a pretty tone to add some vitality to my makeup. # Coverage The coverage isn't particularly intense. I always use concealer to completely hide blemishes, but with this BB cream, I need to use a bit more concealer. However, as someone who regularly uses concealer, it wasn't a major inconvenience. Those planning to use this product alone might want to consider this point. Also, it tends to settle into nose creases a bit.
TipThe photos were taken indoors and outdoors, so the lighting difference makes the contrast seem more dramatic. I have skin with some redness, and this product covers the redness adequately!

Scent: It has an incredibly luxurious fragrance. It lifts my mood and truly feels like the BB cream they apply as a finishing touch in high-end Cheongdam-dong skin clinics. Application: At first, I applied too much like sunscreen and it felt like I was smearing on mud. From the second application onwards, I adjusted the amount and it spread evenly and smoothly. Glow: From day one, I kept getting compliments on how great my skin looked after applying this. My coworkers even wanted to use it too! It gives a natural and beautifully radiant glow. Base function: After lunch, I can wipe off excess oil and apply cushion foundation over it for a flawless finish. It looks as fresh as my morning makeup, which I love.
ConsIngredients: While not all green-rated ingredients are necessarily good for my skin or non-irritating, I still wish it had a green rating overall. Blemishes: There must have been some ingredients that didn't agree with my sensitive skin. From the fourth day, I started getting blemishes around my lower face and nose area. Regrettably, I stopped using it after a week, and the breakouts subsided. Darkening: The effect seems to last about 4 hours at most. By the time I return from lunch, it looks exactly like my bare skin.
TipControlling the amount is crucial. Squeeze a tiny bit vertically on the back of your thumb and dab it on to spread. Applying small amounts in layers gives a beautiful finish.

TipAfter applying, you can achieve a matte finish by using a powder compact! It also covers blemishes well.
