Pros
It is great for dry skin as it remains moisturized and slightly tacky after application, without being dry. The whitening effect is also suitable for dry skin.
Cons
Although it provides a sense of stability, it is heavy to carry around due to the condition.

Pros
It's moisturizing and bouncy. I had some dryness, but using this there's no tightness. I've been using it the most lately.
Cons
It has a slightly heavy feel, so it might feel stuffy to use in the summer, and the price range is a bit burdensome.
Tip
There's the Onoma Essence Locker, and using that together makes for an even bouncier finish, which I like.

Pros
It applies smoothly and feels refreshing~! The finish is smooth and I can feel the moisturizing effect. It's definitely effective for brightening, haha.
Cons
It's good for brightening, but if you have sensitive skin, you should carefully consider and purchase it!

Pros
When I checked the ingredients, I was worried that it might be quite oily since it seems to be formulated for dry skin. But to my surprise, it felt refreshing. It has a fluid texture like other essences, but it adheres to the skin in a bouncy way when applied. I tried applying it day and night for the review, and when I used it at night, my skin felt soft the next day as if I had used a sleeping pack. After cleansing, my skin felt refreshed and smooth. When I used it during the day, it got oily easily due to sweating from activity, so it didn't look great. But I didn't have any issues like breakouts. For oily skin types, it would be better to use it at night rather than day, and you can use it alone after toner without a lotion, and it should provide sufficient hydration. The scent wasn't too bothersome. If I had to describe it, it's like the smell of a stationery store, paper. Some reviewers found it unpleasant, so you may want to consider that as a reference when deciding.
Cons
The price range seems to be targeting older age groups. The original price is 48,000 won for 35ml, but you can find it online for around 20,000 won. I was using a similar mid-range 100ml product, and even with generous application, the essence gets used up quickly. I used the review product for about 2 weeks and it's already half gone. Although it contains whitening ingredients, I don't think you can expect dramatic skin improvement from just using this cosmetic product without any dermatological treatments. At the end of the day, I'm just looking for a good moisturizing product, and it feels a bit burdensome to pay such a high price just for that. Aside from the price, it's a pretty good product. I prefer to use an all-in-one product (essence, lotion, cream), and I think this product is suitable for that. Also, it's surprisingly hard to find an essence that not only hydrates but also has a bouncy, adhering texture, so this is a tempting product.

Pros
💗Moisturizing Power It's very plump and moist. When you first apply it, it spreads on the skin moistly and you can feel it being immediately absorbed. After a while, it gets absorbed into the skin, leaving a plump and slightly sticky feeling, so your skin stays moisturized. I have dry skin, so if I don't moisturize my base well, my skin gets dry a few hours after doing my makeup. But when I used this product, there was no tightness at all. 💗Spreadability When you first apply it, it's a bit runny, so it's really easy to spread all over your face. Surprisingly, once you've applied it all over your face and it's slightly dried, it becomes super dense and you can feel it being absorbed into the skin. 💗Irritation I'm glad I didn't feel any skin irritation or sensitivity. When I'm tired, my skin gets really sensitive, but I've been able to use this without any trouble. In fact, the breakouts caused by my dry skin have actually decreased after using this and taking a nap. 💗Finish The finish leaves a glow on the skin, and it's moisturizing both on the inside and outside, so my skin looks great before applying makeup. It absorbs well without any pilling, and my skin has a subtle glow after doing my makeup. 💗Design The serum bottle size is not too big, and the cap closes and opens well, so it's convenient to use.
Cons
💔Fragrance The fragrance was a bit uncomfortable at first, as it smells like older women's cosmetics. But after using it for a while, I got used to it. It's not a fresh, bright scent, but more of a mature fragrance. So if you're not in your 20s, you might actually enjoy the scent. 💔Stickiness There's a slight stickiness, like other serums, until it's fully absorbed into the skin. But once it's absorbed, the stickiness goes away. It's fine for people with dry skin, but not recommended for those with oily skin.
Tip
If you don't use too much and spread it quickly, it absorbs into the skin moistly. It takes a bit of time to fully absorb, so it's better to leave some time between applying this and doing your makeup.

Pros
The material is sturdy and durable, without any risk of breaking. I also liked that it has a pump, which is a great feature for someone like me who dislikes hassle. It leaves my skin feeling moisturized and supple. I'm hopeful that with continued use, I'll see some whitening effects.
Cons
The price range is a bit on the higher side, but it had an overall average feel to it. The most disappointing aspect was the fragrance - it has a cheap lotion-like scent.
Tip
After using a toner to cleanse my skin, I apply the product to my face and neck, and then follow up with a moisturizing product.

Pros
I was selected as a Hwahae Trial Reviewer and got to try this product. This is the first time I've used a product from this brand, but it's so plump and moisturizing! When I apply it, my face looks radiant and gives me a dewy, glowing complexion. As someone with extremely dry skin who prioritizes hydration, this product alone is enough to provide the moisture and plumpness I need. The cream is light enough that it can be applied comfortably. I'll have to use it more to see the whitening effects, but it seems to do a great job of deeply hydrating my skin, so I plan to repurchase.
Cons
The formula is not very lightweight, so it might feel a bit heavy during the summer, but I think it would be great for those with dry skin!

Pros
Hwahae Trial Reviewer's Review! The application is truly the best! The formula spreads smoothly and feels great. While the absorption is not low, there was a sticky feeling left on the skin. At first, I thought the essence was very rich, and I didn't apply the cream for testing, but I felt that my skin needed more moisture. My skin was a bit dry at the time, you see. The moisturizing power was also good. As an essence, it had a nice, sticky finish - however, the actual moisturizing power was a bit distant from my dry skin. But after applying it, the stickiness was great. There was some initial redness, but it was much less pronounced in the morning, and my face looked a bit brighter - though it's hard to test the whitening effect during the trial period, and it's better evaluated after the full usage. That part is a bit ambiguous.
Cons
There were no breakouts, but I was a bit tired during the period when I was just starting to use this product, and it was around my menstrual cycle, so my skin condition wasn't the healthiest. Due to the mask, the U-zone was unusually dry, and the area around my mouth was cracking, so when I first used the product, it felt a bit irritating, especially on my cheeks and around the mouth. I'm not sure if it was because of the whitening ingredients, but it did seem to have some impact on my skin condition. 😅 However, as I continued using it and did some face masks, that issue significantly decreased.
Tip
Since I tend to be quite lazy, the things I noticed while using this product are: > It's a great essence to use with a summer skin pack! (The dryness from the mask needs to be addressed separately.) > Applying the skin and essence, then waiting a bit before putting on the cream, makes the moisturizing power even better. (This seems to be the case with other products too, but this one was unusually sticky, so the cream didn't spread on me right away. I'm currently using the Doctor* Soothing Cream, and I just lightly dab it on. If I apply too much, it gets clumpy.) > The stickiness after using the essence is absolutely amazing at night! However, in the morning, I felt like my makeup would get cakey, but when I used the Ah* Sita Sun Cream, it made my skin feel more powdery, which helped.

Pros
My skin felt rough due to the change in seasons, but it has become smooth and polished! The texture is liquefied and flowing, yet bouncy, making it easy to apply.
Cons
After application, there is a slight stickiness, which can be burdensome to use in the increasingly warm weather (especially when applying makeup quickly). However, I found that after about 5 minutes, it absorbs well and leaves my skin feeling smooth, so I used it on days when I didn't wear makeup.

Pros
The texture is quite dense and not too watery, making it easy to use. The packaging is especially convenient with the pump and fits comfortably in one hand - it's so cute! Even after using it all up, I don't want to throw it away because of its adorable design. While the product looks like it might have a citrus scent, I actually detected more of a skin care fragrance.🤭 Since I'm not very sensitive, I didn't experience any unpleasant sensations. The ingredients seem gentle.
Cons
It doesn't absorb quickly and leaves a bit of a sticky feeling. It does get absorbed if I massage it in for a while, but that's a bit of a hassle. I try to avoid using it in the morning or applying multiple layers, and only use it in the evening. There is a slightly oily texture, which is fine for my dry skin, but the sticky sensation isn't ideal. As a whitening product, expecting dramatic results from short-term use would be unrealistic. I'll update my review after finishing the product!
