Like the Etude House Soonjung line, the ingredients are gentle, which I liked.
ConsIt's probably a characteristic of cica, but depending on the case, you may feel a lack of moisture or oil, resulting in dryness.

ConsThe name is 'Night', but it charges moisture well and has little oiliness. In the middle of winter, you'll need to apply something else on top of it
TipUse it in the summer!

Even though there is almost no oiliness, it fills in the skin firmly without major dryness in the winter, and I feel like the skin barrier is getting stronger. I thought it would be oily at night, but it's not at all, which surprised me a bit. When you apply it, you'll feel like your skin is being firmly held in place.
ConsThere aren't really any downsides, but if I had to pick one, the formula itself feels a bit like a thick ointment, without much moisture or oiliness. So in the winter, using this alone might not be enough.
TipIt would be perfect to apply this after a hydrating gel cream or moisture essence.

Cons1. Lack of hydration and slight oiliness. The product is focused on moisturizing, but I didn't feel it provided enough hydration. So I recommend using this product along with a separate moisturizer. To be honest, the hydration is almost non-existent. I didn't feel my skin becoming dewy. And as a balm-type product, there is some oiliness, making the skin feel a bit greasy. So I don't recommend this for those with oily skin. 2. Not suitable for use before makeup If I apply this before makeup, it tends to interfere with the makeup application. So I think this is more suitable for nighttime use. 3. Hair sticking to the face After application, there is some stickiness, which can cause hair to stick to the face. The absorption is also a bit slow, so you need to pat it in multiple times for it to absorb better. Overall, cica balm products are not very common, but I feel I've found a really good one. I have a very strong intention to repurchase this!
TipCareful with the application amount! Don't apply too much! It's important to apply a thin layer and reapply multiple times.

The formula is rich, but it spreads well, which I liked. And of course, the ingredients were excellent!! It absorbs well and doesn't feel overly oily. And I bought it on sale for 9,900 won, and I also received a 20ml sample.
ConsIt dried out a bit faster than when I used a cream.
TipApply it thickly instead of thinly, and it won't feel dry! I like to apply it before bed and sleep with it on.

It has a slightly firm cream texture. It feels more like a primer than a cream. I felt it had very little oiliness, so if you have dry skin, I recommend applying it after your other skincare steps. ✔️Forehead Bumps This was my first time using it, and I fell in love with it, so I repurchased it. I've always had an issue with bumpy forehead, and I've tried many related products, but this one calmed it down immediately after just one use. You don't need to apply it too thickly - just a slightly thick layer, as shown in the photo I uploaded, is enough. ✔️Calming Breakouts For areas with breakouts, if you apply it very generously, it can help conceal the blemishes. After a few days of consistent use, the small pimples disappear, and the larger ones become less inflamed.
Cons✔️It's a bit lacking to use this product alone To be honest, it's a hassle to use the toner, ampoule, cream, and cicabam in that order. I tried just applying a thin layer of the cicabam all over my face, but it felt like my whole face was coated, which felt strange and uncomfortable. While it doesn't have an oily feel, it's not very hydrating either, so I felt it was a bit drying. However, it worked well when I used it just on the oily areas like my forehead and nose.
Tip✔️Cicabam for Breakouts! If your skin is not too dry, it's best to just use the cicabam alone on the troubled areas. The ampoules we usually use tend to have more oil, so the breakouts might heal a bit slower compared to using the cicabam alone. ✔️Use at Night Only Since it's applied quite thickly, while it absorbs well, it can pill up if you apply makeup on top of it. I'd recommend just using it generously at night before bed.

When my skin feels sensitive, I apply this more generously.
ConsCompared to the Soonjeong Moisture Barrier Cream, this one definitely has more of an oily feel on the face. It has a deeper, richer kind of sensation. Those who dislike a shiny look might find this difficult to use.
TipI'm using this well as a night product~ It's the last step in my skincare routine.

After popping the milia and applying the product, I saw that my skin was completely calmed down the next day, so I think this is a really great product for soothing the skin!
ConsI didn't feel like it helped reduce or get rid of the milia at all. After applying it, I felt like the product was heavy and over time, I felt like my skin became more oily, which was a burden for my already oily skin type.

We don't have any major issues!
ConsSince it's nighttime, I tend to apply a lot of makeup, which can make my skin look pale and cakey. As someone with dry skin, I wish I had a bit more moisture and oil in my routine.
TipI'd recommend the Hwahae Trial Reviewer products! For those with dry skin like me, I find it helpful to apply a nourishing cream before makeup to help it absorb better.
