The packaging was also very neat and pretty (the tea pouch with the Titox Hara and dried orange and fig tea bags was also included). 🍓 Serum - My skin type is dry, with a slightly oily T-zone (only a bit oily in the summer, the rest of the year it's very dry). As soon as the serum arrived, I tested it on the back of my hand, and it absorbed really well. There was a slight stickiness, but not an unpleasant one - it felt like my skin was fully hydrated and plump. This was the part I liked the most. The back of my hand also stayed moisturized for a long time. 🍓 Fragrance-free - I'm sensitive to fragrances, and I try to avoid products with added fragrances as they often contain questionable ingredients. So the fact that this product is fragrance-free was a huge plus, allowing me to use it comfortably and without worrying about it interfering with my other skincare products. 🍓 Pore Reduction - Although I haven't used it for a long time, I could already see a slight reduction in my pore size compared to when I didn't use it. I was really stressed about my large pores, so I'm very happy about this, and I'm excited to see if they'll shrink even more with continued use. I'm very satisfied that this product has helped reduce my biggest skin concern, the large pores, and has also provided great hydration. I even shared it with my mom, and she loved it too! It was so nice to do our skincare routine together, just like when I was little and would watch her do her makeup. I'm very happy and grateful for this experience!
Cons🍌 Texture - When I applied the serum to my face, it seemed to run down my face quite quickly. I also tried squeezing it onto my hand, and it absorbed into my hand very fast. So for me, it was a bit tricky to apply it directly to my face. 🍌 Blemishes - Not every product can be perfect for everyone, and while I loved this serum for the most part, I did notice some small blemishes popping up around my chin area when I used it. I thought it might be a coincidence at first, but when I saw more appearing in other areas, I temporarily stopped using it. Doing a thorough cleansing with my face wash helped, and no new blemishes appeared after that. 🍌 Price Concern as a Student - Compared to the product's effectiveness, the price isn't extremely high, but as a student, it is still a bit burdensome for me to purchase. After trying this serum, I looked into other products, but found that similar or even more expensive serums are available, which was a bit disappointing. Other than these three points, I really had no other major complaints and loved the product overall! I guess you could say those three things were the only "downsides", if you could even call them that.
Tip🐶 For those with dry skin, I'd recommend using this serum selectively on the oilier areas, or using it as part of a more robust skincare routine. Since the serum has a rather lightweight, watery texture, the hydration may not last as long on drier skin types. Building up a solid base with other moisturizing products would be ideal.

I think it will be good enough for the summer with just this one product. The scent is so-so and may be divisive... If you apply it before makeup, it helps the makeup apply really well. Since I haven't used it for a long time, I'm not sure about the pore-minimizing effects yet.
ConsWhen I applied it with my hands, the finish felt a bit sticky and I had to wipe my hands again... When I used a lot, I noticed a few small pimples popping up. Applying it in moderation seems to be better.
TipMixing it with a heavier cream works well. I soaked a cotton pad with it and did a pack on my nose, and it was soothing and made my skin feel plump, and helped a bit with my rough patches. You should try doing a pack with a cotton pad too!

The packaging was done so meticulously when it arrived! The tea bag and the first impression made me feel so good! 🥰Packaging The appearance was exactly my style! So simple and the glass bottle is so pretty!! Really. 🥰Light Texture I don't like heavy, oily, or sticky textures, and since it's summer, I was looking for a lighter formula. It was just perfect! + To explain the texture, it's not a thick, sticky formula like a winter moisturizer, but a fluid, watery texture that's easy to apply. 🥰Not Drying Even though it's a light formula, I didn't feel any dryness. After receiving the product, I've been using only this and the COSRX AHA/BHA toner, and I haven't experienced any significant dryness.
Cons😢Breakouts Breakouts are always case-by-case, but this has been the worst in recent times, within 1-2 weeks. And I haven't been wearing much makeup.. So I've stopped using this product since yesterday. 😢Pores..? As for pore improvement effects... Hmm, it's obviously difficult to expect results within 1-2 weeks! Once the breakouts calm down, I'll continue using it and update the review. 😢Expensive Price For a 30ml bottle in the late 30,000 won range, the price is quite burdensome.
TipThe 5th photo is before use, and the 6th photo is taken today.

Skin type: Very oily! + Frequent acne treatments have made my skin sensitive & reactive + Cystic adult acne along the jawline 1. Fragrance: The fragrance is not artificially strong, but rather pleasant! Some describe it as fragrance-free, but I perceive a very subtle citrus scent + a hint of plastic(?) + the characteristic aroma of the oil. However, it seems to be the inherent fragrance of the product made with quince as the main ingredient, and I don't get the impression that the fragrance has been heavily added. 2. Texture & Spreadability As the weather gets warmer, I pay more attention to the texture of my skincare products. This one has a fluid, watery texture without any stickiness. It's like mixing 80% mineral water and 20% facial oil! When applied, it has a slightly oily, facial oil-like feel (but not at all heavy), which gets absorbed quickly, leaving no residue on the face.
ConsTo be honest, this product has more downsides than upsides for me. 1. Milia First, right after using it on the first day and waking up the next morning, I noticed several small milia-like pimples popping up around my forehead and between my eyebrows. I suspected the product might be the culprit, so I skipped using it the next day, and sure enough, the pimples went away. Even though this is a serum for oily skin, and the Hwahae reviews from users with a similar skin type were full of praise, it just doesn't seem to agree with my skin. My skin is extremely oily, with a compromised skin barrier and unbalanced sebum-moisture levels, especially in the summer when my oil production is high but moisture is severely lacking. The slight oily texture of this product seems to have exacerbated the issues for my skin type. So for those with very oily, dehydrated, and sensitive skin like mine, I'd recommend patch testing before purchasing. 2. Hydration I didn't feel any meaningful hydration from this product at all. The main reason I use an essence or serum in between toner and moisturizer is to boost hydration, but I didn't experience that with this. I even had my mom, who has a different skin type (combination, no acne or blemishes, just oily in the T-zone) try it, and she said her face felt tight and less hydrated after using it compared to her usual essence. 3. Price The price doesn't seem very reasonable considering the volume. But in the summer, using a smaller amount may make it last longer.
TipIt seems like this product would be a better fit for those with normal to dry skin types! If you're someone who typically doesn't get along well with oil-based products or feels clogged and suffocated after application, I'd really recommend patch testing this before purchasing. It may work better for those with less oily, less reactive skin.

The cheek and chin area has acne, acne scars, and blemishes. The skin on my forehead is sometimes dry and atopic. The scent is a very deep and subtle floral? A sweet fragrance. If you are not sensitive to scents, it should be fine. The color is a transparent orange and the consistency is watery. Just a drop on the forehead quickly spreads down to the nose bridge. The packaging is very eco-friendly, made of a box and paper wrapping. Inside the box, there was a quince tea bag and promotional materials for the brand's products. The product packaging states that it has 4 pore care functions: pore width, size, volume, and count. I've tried various pore-focused products, and while they provide an initial 'glow' effect, the long-term results are minimal. But this product truly lives up to its claims - the pore size, volume, etc. all showed significant improvement! By the third day of use, I could visibly see my pores shrinking. By the fourth day, even my parents commented on how clear my skin looked. This product can definitely help manage the enlarged, humid summer pores! I no longer feel stressed looking in the mirror at my pores.
ConsI got acne after applying one drop on my forehead and one drop on each cheek 😭 The acne on my cheeks was really painful, and it's not even hormonal acne... 😭😭 So I'll just try applying it to my nose for now 😂😂 The pore effects are really good, so I still want to try using the whole product.
TipNo special tips, really... Just cleanse, tone, then apply the serum with one drop on the forehead and one drop on each cheek, gently massaging for absorption. Then lightly pat to finish. This helps the serum provide hydration that the cream alone may not.

ConsIt is slightly oily, so not recommended for oily skin types. As I have an oily T-zone, I started getting pimples after using this.
TipFor extremely dry skin, use a heavier textured toner, and for the rest, use a lighter toner. Then, apply this serum to fully recharge the skin with moisture.
