I focused on these two factors when selecting this soap. The fragrance is close to unscented (I don't have much aversion to the natural scent from unscented products), and if I had to describe it, it's similar to the smell of a powder cleanser - a starch-like scent. The size is also suitable, and being mildly acidic, there is no tightness or discomfort after cleansing.
ConsExcept during sales events, I think the individual price is a bit expensive :(
TipThe included lather net is the worst. This is my first time using a mesh one, and it doesn't produce any lather. It actually lathers better if I just use the soap without the net... I use this soap without the soap net.

These days, I just apply sunscreen since I'm always wearing a mask, so this was able to complete my cleansing routine! And I liked that the scent isn't artificial~!! Some other products have such an intense fragrance that I tend to be a bit averse to them!! And when I lathered it up, the foam was dense and fluffy?? It had that kind of texture, so the cleansing power seems good too. When I wiped it off with a toner, the cotton pad came off clean~!! I started using it just on my face, but now I use it for showering as well. I have this weird situation where my face is dry, but I sometimes get oily spots and blemishes. But it seems to remove the excess oil well, so I think I'll use it as a body wash!! As for why I don't use it on my face, I'll write that down as a downside^^
ConsThere are a couple of downsides, though. First~! The provided foam net! ㅋㅋ A natural-looking, trendy foam net came with it, but am I using it wrong? ㅠㅠ You're supposed to put the product in and gently massage, right? But it doesn't fit. I tried to forcefully shove it in and had a hard time taking it out..? So I just left it alone...If you could make the size a bit bigger, that would be great^^ Second~! For my dry skin, my face did feel a bit taut after cleansing~!! Maybe because it's so effective? It doesn't become super squeaky-clean like regular soap, but there's still a slight tightness, so I think I'll use it more as a body wash^^
TipI don't have any particular tips, but for those with extremely dry skin, your face may feel taut after cleansing, so it's best to quickly apply another product to lock in the moisture^^

It feels like only the surface oil and makeup are thoroughly cleansed, without completely removing the skin's natural oils. 🖤The product does not contain any fragrance or coloring agents, so it feels refreshing and comfortable to use. 🖤After using it consistently for about a week, it has helped improve the texture of my skin significantly ❗️
Cons❌The product has a glue-like scent. ❌The cracking phenomenon occurs quite quickly, so it needs to be stored in a well-ventilated place if you want to use it for a long time.
TipIt's best to keep in mind that the lather is not as thick and creamy as a foam cleansing product. However, this cleansing product is quite gentle, as it does not contain many chemical ingredients. Those with sensitive skin or those who often experience dryness after using cleansing foams, especially those with dry skin, will likely be very satisfied with this product :)

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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.ProsFirst, it seemed like the soap form was quite abundant. After rinsing it with water and gently massaging it, an enormous amount of lather was produced, so I didn't have to struggle to create the lather multiple times to remove the impurities on my face. I liked that it was easy to create a rich lather to cleanse my face. Also, the fragrance was not overly artificial, which I dislike, and it was almost odorless, so I was able to use it comfortably.
ConsI have a sensitive dry skin type. It's not extremely sensitive, but there are certain ingredients in the products I use that can cause sensitive reactions. With this cleansing bar, I did experience some sensitivity. Even after using it, there was a slightly drying feeling, and sometimes I would get breakouts in the evening, which is unusual for me. Also, the cleansing bar produced an abundance of lather, which was initially a positive, but that also became a downside. When rinsing it off and putting it in the drying rack, the excessive lather was difficult to wash away, as it just kept foaming. It really produced a lot of lather. Additionally, the drying rack opening was too small, and it was a struggle to put the bar in. I had to use it a few times until it shrank in size before I could easily place it in the rack. The quality of the drying rack also didn't seem very good, which worried me a bit. There are quite a few disappointing aspects.
TipThe new one absolutely won't fit in the drying rack, as the opening is too small. It only becomes easy to put in after using the bar a few times and it shrinks in size. Also, since it produces a lot of lather, you should only use a small, appropriate amount of the product with water.

I also tend to only use products with gentle ingredients. 🏷 Usage Experience: I mainly used it in the mornings For someone like me who only washes with water, using a soap-based cleanser was a bit concerning, as I worried it might dry out my skin. It was a bit tricky to put the soap into the provided mesh, but unlike others, I used it that way! The texture wasn't a super dense lather, but there was enough foam for a comfortable cleansing. And after washing, my skin didn't feel tight or dry, so I've been using it consistently every morning🤍 I didn't experience any breakouts or skin issues after using the soap either ㅎㅎ As someone with sensitive and dry skin, I highly recommend this product as a morning cleanser.
ConsOnce I put the soap in the mesh, it was a bit difficult to remove (before the soap got smaller), so I was a bit worried about mold growing due to the maintenance aspect.🥺
TipThe mesh they provided is great, but you could also try using a sponge mesh. That will help you create an even richer and creamier lather.💛

The scent is not chemical, but a gentle soap scent, which made me feel good throughout the wash.
Cons🙅♀️ Sponge ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The lather doesn't seem to form well, and I noticed some grayish spots while using it. I thought it was mold and peeled it off to dry, but it turned out to be the material itself. Still, it feels unpleasant, so I'm using it after peeling it off. 🙅♀️ Cleansing Power ⭐⭐⭐ For my combination and sensitive skin, it's too mild, and I didn't feel completely clean. At first, I thought the oiliness was moisture, but it was actually residue that didn't get washed off.
TipThe product is so mild that I recommend it as a morning cleansing soap! Or, if you feel uneasy even after cleansing, I recommend it as a gentle second cleanse.

It's better not to have the vinyl or plastic packaging that isn't particularly pretty or environmentally friendly. 🌸 Fragrance: The faint, hazy glue(?) candle(?) scent wasn't unpleasant. 🌸 Lather: The lather is really good. Even though it's mildly acidic and gentle, the lather amount that came out after just a few rubs in water was enough for a satisfying face wash, exceeding my expectations! 🌸 Post-wash feeling: I don't like the squeaky-clean feeling, so the nicely soft finish was great. It didn't feel tight at all. 🌸 Bar condition: Using the included mesh bag, and hanging it in the shower as shown in the photo, so far it hasn't dried out too much, and there's no issue with lather or softness. 🌸 Skin condition: Even though my pores clog easily and I'm prone to breakouts, this soap didn't cause any trouble. 🌸 Overall: As a soap enthusiast, I've tried many, but it's hard to find one with this level of performance, no skin issues, non-irritating fragrance, and environmental consideration. I think it's safe enough to use on kids too. I really liked it, a solid 5 stars ☆☆☆☆☆
Cons💮 The pocket size fits the soap bar too snugly, so it was almost torn when putting in a new bar. 😢 And the slightly rough texture means there's a bit of irritation if rubbed quickly on the hands. 💮 The original price of 12,000 won seems a bit steep considering the not-so-large size, so some may feel it's a bit pricey. My parents said they'd hesitate at that price. (+) But it's currently on sale on the Hwahae shopping site, which I think is a reasonable price. 💌 I'm not sure if you'll see this, but a letter to the company: Since pump bottles and tubes are overwhelmingly preferred, the fact that it's a bar soap may limit the customer base. However, since the product quality is good, maybe you could keep the simple concept but differentiate the shape or size from the rather plain-looking white round bar, which may prevent people from overcoming the price and format barrier. I really hope it doesn't get discontinued. 😭 I think emphasizing the vegan, cruelty-free, zero-waste, adequate cleansing, and gentle enough for kids aspects in the marketing could help it gain word-of-mouth popularity.
TipI also tried using it as a shampoo, and compared to regular shampoos, the cleansing sensation is about a 9/10 in terms of refreshment. The lack of squeakiness when used as a soap is likely due to the mild acidity, which is much less than other soaps. I recommend not just rubbing the mesh bag directly, but instead making lather with your hands and focusing on the scalp area. I'd recommend this to people who use loofah sponges. 😊

Ingredients First of all, the ingredients are better than Dove's. It seems to be made simply, as the name suggests. One of the drawbacks of the Dove Beauty Bar is the strong fragrance, but this product has no added fragrance, so I feel reassured. 2. Lather Even without a lather net, it lathers up well just with your hands. Cleansing bars tend to have relatively less lather than shampoos or body washes, which can make them difficult to cleanse, but this cleansing bar seems to have improved on that. 3. Cleansing Power Normally I use a cleansing oil followed by a cleansing foam, but for the cleansing power test, I skipped the cleansing oil and used it. Even without the oil, my makeup was thoroughly removed.
ConsAs a shampoo substitute, the feeling (moisturization) is a bit lacking. When using it as a shampoo, the hair becomes much more stiff (compared to the Dove White Bar). It's difficult to use it alone, and if you use it with a conditioner or treatment, it should be fine for short hair. However, I didn't feel much tightness after cleansing or showering. I think it's because this product doesn't have the hair conditioning ingredients that the Dove White Bar has. Excluding its use as a shampoo, I'm using it without any major issues.
TipThe lather forms much better than expected, so if you think of the White Bar and rub it on a body towel, a lather bomb will occur haha. Even just a little rubbing creates a rich lather~ Please keep that in mind^^

I would say it's almost fragrance-free!! I didn't have any aversion to it. ✔️I use it in the order of oil>foam cleanser>cleansing bar when cleansing in the morning and removing makeup!! No aversion and it's good. ✔️Didn't cause any pimples, acne, or hives on the body and face!! (It's great to use as a body wash, hand soap, and for light cleansing 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻) 🔴The best part!! I used to have an itchy jawline in the evenings. After researching online, I found that it could be due to mites. Apparently, mildly acidic foam cleansers are effective against mites. I happened to be selected for the Hwahae trial, and after using it, the itchiness went away that very evening, the next evening, and the evening after that.. Now, there's no itchiness at all!! The effect is amazing! It seems to be very effective against mites.
Cons✔️The included mesh sponge.. it's better without it!! The lather doesn't form well, and even when it does, it's watery rather than creamy. ✔️If you store the soap on the mesh sponge, it cracks. The natural soap I used before didn't crack when stored on a hanging mesh sponge, but the Hwahae bar did, so I replaced it with a hanging mesh sponge. ✔️After cleansing, it doesn't feel moisturizing.. it's drying. ✔️ Didn't see any effects on my whiteheads.
Tip⚫️The mesh sponge that comes with it doesn't lather well!! It's better to use it without the mesh sponge or replace it with a hanging mesh sponge. ⚫️Don't use it as a replacement for your foam cleanser or oil after makeup, use it for your second or third cleanse, or in the morning. ⚫️ It's also great to use as a body wash and hand soap!! A versatile soap~
