For someone with very dry skin like me, it's excellent for touch-ups - it helps settle any cakey makeup and improves the overall look.
ConsWhile it's good for touch-ups on very dry skin, it feels fine at first, but after multiple uses, my face starts to feel heavy and suffocated.

I've been wanting to try it for a while, and I'm so happy I got it through The Hwahae Testers event. Let me break down the product features for you: 1. Shipping and Packaging: The package included the product box, bubble wrap, several layers of thin paper (for shock protection, I guess?), and a brand promotional postcard. I liked that the packaging was lightweight. The bubble wrap seemed a bit short, but everything arrived intact. It's better than excessive wrapping for just one lip product. Overall, I'm satisfied with the packaging! (The first photo shows the unboxed product) 2. Case: It's a white plastic body with an engraved 'H' on top. Personally, I found it a bit light and flimsy, which was disappointing. The body feels heavy due to the product, but the lid especially feels very plasticky. Some might like the minimalist design, but I found it a bit plain without any decoration. On second thought, maybe it's to create a clean, transparent image. Still, it wasn't to my taste. 3. Product Appearance: I was surprised to see the product had some color when I opened it. I subconsciously expected it to be slightly white at most, but it's a pearly hue with a hint of dusty pink. However, when applied, it only adds glow without any color. I was impressed by how much product there is when I fully extended it. (The second photo shows it fully extended) 4. Application: The stick format makes it easy to use. The instructions say you can just swipe it on, but some reviews mention pilling. You can also warm it up with your fingers and apply it that way, which is what I did. It melts quickly and smoothly when rubbed with fingers. You might need to repeat the process of melting and applying to get enough glow. Since I only use sunscreen without makeup, I can't comment much on how it works over a base. 5. Glow: It gives a natural, dewy glow. It's like the high-end glow of well-cared-for skin. It's not as noticeable as I expected. If you're hoping for that celebrity-like, dewy and fresh 'water glow' makeup look, this might fall short. But that's what makes it great for daily use. It makes your skin look healthy, like you've had 8 hours of sleep and perfect oil-moisture balance. If it were more intense, it might be too much. A bit TMI, but natural makeup suits me better, so I'm satisfied with this level of glow. 6. Ingredients: I was surprised by the clean ingredient list, similar to skincare products, without any concerning or allergenic ingredients. It even has UV protection, which makes me very satisfied with the product formulation. They must have put a lot of effort into developing this.
Cons1. Stickiness: Even when I melted it with my fingers and patted it on, it felt a bit heavy and congealed. It wasn't too bothersome, but since it sits on top of the skin, I worry it might rub off if touched. My hair also sticks to it a bit. However, the product is good enough that I can overlook this. 2. Usage Rate: I haven't used it much yet, but due to its formulation, it seems like it might get used up quickly. Like how moisturizing lip products tend to wear down faster than matte ones... Given that it's not particularly cheap, it might be disappointing if it runs out too quickly.
TipFor this type of stick highlighter, apply it to areas that catch the light or protrude. For example, the forehead, under-eye bone, cheekbones, bridge of the nose, inner corners of the eyes (for a more glossy and glamorous look), and the tip of the chin. Be careful not to over-apply, as it can make you look greasy or like you have something smeared on your face. Also, it can emphasize skin texture, so consider your skin condition when using it!

With the weather getting chilly lately, I really appreciated being able to achieve a dewy highlight.
ConsFirst off, given the current pandemic situation, using a moisturizing product felt a bit stifling. If it weren't for the pandemic, I think I would have used it well in fall and winter. Also, since it's a balm type, there's a slight stickiness. As someone with combination skin, it doesn't quite suit the current circumstances.
TipWhile testing this, I found it quite similar to balm products! Please refer to the photo below. Gahee's product feels a bit heavier, and I definitely got the impression of a nourishing product. Hince feels lighter than Gahee and less sticky. I think this would be great for those with dry skin.
