Pros
The ingredients are good A small amount is enough to use It has excellent moisturizing power, especially the deep moisturizing is the best Redness fades It's effective on blackheads too, so I plan to use a bottle consistently
Cons
It sometimes itches and feels slippery It needs to be shaken and mixed before applying The formula is watery, so it must be applied directly to the face It's expensive

Pros
The feeling of being smooth and dry after application was not very noticeable, but the price was reasonable so it was usable.
Cons
I'm not sure if it helped reduce acne. It was a bit itchy, though that may vary from person to person.

Pros
It was moisturized and glossy! The moisturizer had too much moisture and was dry, but it was good.
Cons
Ugh, it was itchy as soon as I applied it, so I washed it off right away and it was fine.

Pros
Despite not being excessively thick, it helps manage dryness. Good absorption.
Cons
My skin is quite sensitive, but I'm not sure what's not agreeing with it. When I apply it, it feels slightly irritating and itchy.

Pros
I'm not sure... Ugh, the EWG ingredient rating is green..?
Cons
I have sensitive skin and it itched right after I applied it. I tried it again the next day and it still itched. I thought the packaging was glass, but it's actually plastic, so I'm disappointed..
Tip
If you have sensitive skin, you should avoid using this. The high concentration of extracts seems to irritate the skin.

Pros
I've been using it for a week, so I'm not sure. My face is currently very itchy and red, so I'm not sure if I should stop using it or try to endure it a little longer. I don't know what to do.
Cons
I purchased it based on reviews and recommendations, but my face is very itchy and red, so I'm not sure what to do. Will it get better if I try to endure it a little longer? Can those who have used it let me know?

Pros
✔️Hwahae Trial Reviewer Review 🔜 Skin Type: Combination, Sensitive, Quickly Reactive, Blemishes (Freckles, Sunspots) Day 1: (Water-based Toner -> Cica Double Effect Ampoule -> Moisturizer) Felt the ampoule absorbed slowly, slightly tingling, slightly drying Woke up with 1-2 small pimples Day 2: (Water-based Toner -> Cica Double Effect Ampoule -> Moisturizer) Absorption felt better than yesterday, tingling, not drying Woke up with a glow on my face, skin looked pretty, pimples didn't go away and a few more appeared Day 3: (Water-based Toner -> Cica Double Effect Ampoule -> Moisturizer) Absorbed well, the area with pimples itched, pimples got bigger, not drying Skin looked good but was concerned about the pimples, so discontinued use 5 days after discontinuing, pimples went away Started using it again As expected, skin texture improved but pimples started again Compared to the first day, freckles definitely faded
Cons
The ingredients are good and my skin texture improved and blemishes faded, so I really liked it, but something in the formula didn't agree with me. The pimples and itchiness were such a disappointment. 😢 If you're not as sensitive as me, I'd recommend trying it!
Tip
From the beginning, it's better not to apply too much at once, but to build it up gradually day by day. Since I layered it heavily on the blemished areas, the freckles faded.

Pros
❣️I am a winner of the Hwahae Trial Reviewer❣️ I really wanted to be selected as a Hwahae Trial Reviewer, so I applied for various opportunities. I was so happy that the ampoule I had been wanting to try was selected. I used this ampoule along with my usual skin and cream products from Tuesday evening to Sunday morning. When I first received it, I was really impressed by the packaging, which was divided into two layers. The instructions said to shake it and dispense 2-3 drops onto my hand, but I used the dropper to apply it directly to my face. Now let me tell you about the benefits: 1. It deeply hydrates the skin💧 When I first applied the product, I felt like my skin was getting moisturized from within. Unlike products that just leave an oily layer on the surface, this one made my skin feel hydrated both inside and out, without any greasy residue. I really dislike sticky and heavy products, but this one felt light and refreshing, even with the oil layer. 2. It soothes targeted areas🌱 I had a blemish on my forehead, and after consistently using this ampoule, I could see it gradually diminishing. So it seems to have a soothing effect.
Cons
1. Sensitive areas tend to have breakouts😡 While the serum had a soothing effect on small, localized blemishes, when I applied it to my cheeks, which are normally sensitive, my skin became flushed and irritated. After using the serum, small breakouts started appearing on my cheeks as well. So I ended up discontinuing use since my cheek skin condition seemed to be worsening. 2. My face feels slightly itchy🤧 A few minutes after applying, my cheeks or jawline would feel slightly itchy. However, the itchiness would subside after a few minutes. But I suppose there was some ingredient in the product that didn't agree with my skin, causing the itchiness. 3. Whitening effect????🌞 The whitening effect... well, I'm not sure. It could be that I didn't use it long enough for the effects to show. Maybe a month of use would have resulted in some whitening? But since the product didn't seem to agree with the skin on my cheeks, I had to discontinue use.
Tip
This ampoule seems to be good for those with dry skin or dehydrated skin. And aside from whitening or soothing ampoules, it seemed like just a moisturizing ampoule. At 37,000 won, it might be a bit pricey to purchase this ampoule. If you win a Hwahae Trial Reviewer or Hwahae event, it would not be a bad idea to test the product and then purchase it. Lastly, I would like to express my gratitude to Isoi and the Hwahae staff for hosting such events. Thank you for reading my lengthy review ❤️

Pros
It does not feel dry and has a moisturized feeling even the next day. It also seems to improve the skin texture.
Cons
While everyone's skin is different, for my skin, after using it, I feel like it is not absorbed and just sits on the surface, and after some time, my face starts to feel itchy. And I also see some signs of skin trouble the next day.
