Pleasant Scent

Hydrating

Lightweight

Easy to Apply

Refreshing

It has a somewhat matte finish, so using this Essence alone may not be enough for those who prefer a more dewy look. I would recommend trying other products for those who find multiple skincare steps too troublesome.
I don't see any particularly outstanding effects that would require extensive use. I finished one bottle and that was it for me...

As it is a First Essence used right after cleansing, I was worried it might be too lightweight, but it turned out to be quite dense. After applying, I can feel the moisturizing effect and a certain degree of nourishment.
It's dense but absorbs well, leaving a refreshing finish without any stickiness.
When used as the first step, it helps refine the skin texture, and I found that I no longer need to use a separate toner. I use this instead of a toner and then proceed to apply an ampoule or serum.
The ingredients are good. It contains fragrance, but the scent is really nice. The subtle fragrance lingers even through the final skincare step, which is the first time I've found a fragrance-containing product with a scent I truly enjoy!

The fragrance... is quite strong, compared to other cosmetics I've used.

This product would be great for those of you who have trouble applying oily products! I also have an oily complexion, and if I apply products incorrectly, they can feel heavy, sticky, and even cause breakouts. But this product has no stickiness whatsoever...! However, it's not the most moisturizing either. It absorbs quickly, so it's good for light application.
Especially when wearing masks like now, your skin can feel damp and stuffy inside, but you still need to do your skincare routine... This product is great for times like that. 
Aside from the strong fragrance, I really liked this product!
The hygienic pump packaging was also a plus.

I received this product as a prize from an event, and when I just looked at the price, I found it to be a bit expensive. The product itself is fine, but I don't think I would repurchase it at this price point..

The texture is just right - not too moist, and I don't like sticky textures, but the finish is soft and applies lightly, which I like. It seems perfect to use right after cleansing!
The fragrance seems to be quite divisive, but for me, while it was a bit stronger than I expected, it didn't give me a headache or anything unpleasant to that degree.:)

At night before bed, I always apply an essence and then follow up with a cream.
To maintain more moisture or hydration... since I'm older, I need to be a bit more attentive than my younger friends...

While it's soft and moisturizing, I wish it was just a bit more concentrated (though it's not a serum or ampoule).

I'm writing a review after winning the event entry. 
As soon as I received it, I used it because I needed it...
The scent is subtle and soft, and it applies smoothly and leaves a moisturized feeling even after application. I always apply it at night before bed, and even after washing my face in the morning, the moisturized feeling remains, which I really like.

Even though the spraying holes were small, the spray force was incredibly strong. The moisture also didn't last very long, which was inconvenient.

It had a lot of moisture, which was good. The small spraying holes were convenient. Even the lid closed tightly, which was nice.

It has a slight rose scent, but I personally didn't mind it
The thin texture might not be enough for dry skin

It's great for lightweight use in the summer
Being on the thinner side, it absorbs quickly
Not oily, so it would suit oily skin well

I used it with the ice cooling feature, and it seemed to absorb even better.

The price is a bit burdensome, but I'm willing to purchase it considering the benefits.
Apart from the price, I'm satisfied with everything!

When I first received it, I used it without any expectations, but I was satisfied with both the fragrance and the texture.
I have dry skin except for the T-zone area, and my skin is not severely dry, but when I apply a lot of lotion, my skin gets a bit oily in the morning. However, the Milky First Essence gave me the perfect amount of moisture and made my skin feel soft.
After using it, I noticed that my dead skin had significantly reduced, and my skin felt smoother, as I mentioned earlier. I even recommended it to my mother, and she is also very satisfied with using it!
The most satisfying part was that I didn't need to exfoliate after using the essence.

It's good to layer this product on days when your skin is dry or you want to have a moisturized makeup base. Pumping this product twice or using it in combination with the toner you have at home will make the base even more moisturized than just using the essence alone.

The product itself is very mild, but it's a shame that it's classified as a cosmetic with harmful ingredients due to the one fragrance. And at 35,000 won for 80ml, it's a bit pricey. That's why I took off one star. I plan to stock up when it's on sale at Deaplin.

♥Hwahae Trial Review♥
The survey on the skin essence has ended, but after using it for about 3 months, my thoughts have changed, so I'm rewriting this product! I received it in November and used it daily until January, and since it's a first essence to be used right after cleansing, I kept it in the bathroom and used it every day.
It contains fragrance (the only potentially harmful ingredient in the product), but the rose scent is very pleasant. (There is actually rose flower water in the product) The milky-colored essence that first absorbs into the skin becomes a texture similar to a toner when it comes into contact with water, but it maintains a certain level of moisture as it is transferred to the rest of the face. It plays a big role in maintaining moisture, not only in the busy mornings but also in the evening skincare routine. This is its greatest virtue as a basic base.
It contains Curing hyaluronic acid, which seems to be the reason. When combined with other basic products, it maintains a plump texture and works well with other products.
The best part was the packaging! The cap is easy to separate, and it's in a pump format, so the amount used each time comes out conveniently.

1. It's too drying for winter use.
Due to the lack of moisture, I felt it would be better to use this mainly in the summer, rather than in the winter.
2. I developed milia
I'm not sure if the product didn't agree with my skin, but a few days after using it, I started developing milia. Those with sensitive skin may want to take note of this.

1. The fragrance was simply wonderful.
The rich rose scent was not too overpowering, which I personally enjoyed.
2. The finish was not sticky at all.
I really dislike sticky finishes, but this one was not like that, which I appreciated.

Apply the base firmly.
This is an essence type, not an all-in-one cream. I think you would need to apply at least 2 other creams as well.

If I lose the lid, what would I do..
But I haven't lost it yet, haha.

It was great that it was very hydrating.
After applying, it feels like it has absorbed into the skin.

I always applied a moisturizing cream after applying it.
It seemed a little lacking in moisture to me, so I recommend applying a moisturizing cream after some time has passed.

Well... the moisture didn't really hit me.
Therefore, it would be better to apply it together with a moisturizing cream.
In the case of oily skin, the more you apply, the faster the sebum appears, so there is nothing good about applying a lot.
After applying, there is a sticky feeling until it is absorbed.
So when I applied a moisturizing cream on top, it felt like I had just applied something on the surface.
So I always waited some time before applying.

First of all, it is a dry skin type. The sebum has definitely decreased.
And it was good because it was not heavy when applied.
Also, there was no phenomenon where a lot of sebum was generated just because a lot was applied.
The packaging is also neat and pretty.
