Scent - A sophisticated perfume-like fragrance, hard to describe precisely but a subtle blend of floral and fruity notes Scent longevity - If you wash your hair in the morning, the subtle scent lasts until the next morning Ingredients - While focused on fragrance, it uses gentle, naturally-derived surfactants. Except for one ingredient, all others are EWG green-rated, making a mild formulation that doesn't irritate the scalp and even helps with dead skin cells - amazing! Lather - Any shampoo lathers well on oil-free hair, but this one creates rich foam even on very oily, long hair with just 3 pumps! Hair texture - Even with just shampoo, while hair is still wet, my usually straw-like hair feels noticeably softer compared to other shampoos, which was a pleasant surprise A shampoo with great fragrance, kind ingredients, affordable price, and good results
ConsThis shampoo seems suitable for both dry and oily hair types. My friend with extremely dry hair tried it when visiting and fell in love, saying she'd buy one too.
TipIt's great on its own, but I used it with a scalp brush. I'm not sure if that's why I felt it lathered more, but the shampoo itself didn't cause any irritation or blemishes! Make sure to use it with a shampoo brush!

First off, the ingredients are good except for the fragrance. Unlike most commercial shampoos that contain at least one sulfate ingredient that can make hair thin and dry, this one doesn't. 2. Even though I have dry and brittle hair, after washing and removing excess water, it still felt somewhat moisturized and didn't tangle easily. 3. It had a soap-like scent, but it wasn't overpowering and had a pleasant subtle fragrance. The longevity of the scent varies depending on individual factors (hair thickness, volume). For me, with thin hair and less volume, when I washed in the evening, the scent lasted until the next morning. 4. The price is reasonable considering the volume. 5. It's reassuring that it doesn't contain unnecessary additives and has a transparent texture.
ConsWhile this shampoo and the brand itself focus on creating pleasant fragrances, I wonder if the fragrance was really necessary... Shampoo tends to remain on the scalp even after thorough rinsing, so it's disappointing that they couldn't create a nice-smelling shampoo without adding potentially irritating ingredients.

I've finally been selected as a Hwahae Tester and get to review this product. I'm grateful to the Hwahae team for this opportunity. Scent: I've tried many shampoos, but this fragrance is unique and refreshing. Initially, it has a unisex perfume-like scent. At first, it felt very fresh, but with continued use, it started to smell a bit floral. Typically, commercial shampoos have rich or sweet scents (though I'm not sure about recent trends as I've been using unscented shampoos for a while). This fragrance breaks the stereotype of typical shampoo scents. Texture: It's completely transparent, almost like aloe gel. It gives off a very clean vibe. Gentleness: I have super sensitive skin, including my scalp. This feels gentle without any irritation. Lather: Despite its clean, transparent appearance that might suggest otherwise, it lathers surprisingly well. Packaging: The pump-style bottle is the most convenient and nice. Plus, the container looks pretty. 💥========Update after finishing the bottle========💥 The flaking I experienced was only temporary, possibly due to changing shampoos. By the time I finished the bottle, the itching and flaking had disappeared! I'm even more satisfied after using the entire bottle. I'm actually sad it's already gone! Love it, love it!
ConsI mentioned the unique fragrance, and it turns out the only cautionary ingredient is the fragrance. Personally, I could do without it, but I'm sure some people will like it! There's just one slight drawback: Despite being incredibly gentle, my scalp feels itchy after washing. It's not all over, but especially in sensitive areas. I have blemishes on my scalp, and these areas get itchy. When I scratch, dead skin cells fall off like dandruff. It's stressful when these flakes get on my clothes. I can't resist the urge to scratch either. The natural shampoo I used before didn't cause this issue. Everything else is great, but the itchiness is disappointing enough to dock one star.
TipPro tip? I just use multiple pumps each time! I lather, massage, and repeat this process a few times.

Because of this, I usually only use strong cleansing shampoos for oily hair that leave my hair feeling stiff. Please keep this in mind! 1. The fragrance was just right - not too strong, but not too subtle either. I usually get headaches from even slightly strong musk scents, but this shampoo was perfect. The scent also lasted quite well. 2. I loved that I could use it with peace of mind due to its natural ingredients! I don't usually pay attention to such things, but recently my scalp had been itchy and occasionally developing blemishes even after washing and drying properly. However, after using this, the itchiness completely disappeared and no more blemishes appeared! 3. The cleansing effectiveness was surprisingly good! I was initially worried because of the gentle ingredients, but my scalp stayed oil-free for over half a day. While it might not be suitable for summer use, I think even those with oily scalps could use it comfortably in winter. 4. The best part was how it left my hair feeling! As I mentioned, I've only used cooling, strong shampoos for oily hair, so I had given up on having nice hair texture. But with this shampoo, my hair doesn't clump together after rinsing like it usually does! While I still need conditioner, I was truly impressed by this...
ConsIt's true that the cleansing effectiveness is lower compared to shampoos specifically for oily hair. However, considering the pleasant fragrance and how it improves hair texture, I think it's worth compromising a bit on the cleansing power.

I was skeptical at first, but after being selected for the Hwahae testing program, I used the product for about two weeks. Here's my take: #Fragrance The scent is a pleasant, subtle musk that's not overpowering. I liked that it's unlikely to be divisive. However, I wish the fragrance lingered a bit longer. #Texture It's slightly thinner than most store-bought shampoos, but it lathers up beautifully. After washing, my hair didn't feel stripped, though if you have bleached hair, you might want to follow up with a treatment. It leaves your hair feeling fresh and clean. #Cleansing Power I'd rate the cleansing effectiveness about 3.8 out of 5 stars. Rather than giving a super 'clean' sensation, it's gentle and seems to maintain scalp health without aggravation. Compared to other shampoos that have worsened my blemishes, I consider this a plus! #Hair Condition I expected my hair to feel a bit dry without using a treatment, but it was surprisingly hydrated.
Cons#Size The volume is a bit awkward. For heavy users like me who tend to use a lot, it might not last even two months.
TipPro tip: Start with a dollop about the size of a coin for your first lather, then follow up with a second wash, massaging your scalp with your fingertips (not nails) for a more thorough cleanse. This works well with any shampoo, really!

I have dry, brittle hair and a sensitive scalp due to multiple bleaching and countless coloring sessions. So, I'm always very conscious about my hair's condition! ⭐️Fragrance True to its name as a musk shampoo, it leaves a subtle, powdery scent that's quite pleasant. When I'm out, I occasionally catch a whiff of the fragrance lingering in my hair. Despite being a musk scent, it has a refreshing quality that makes washing your hair an invigorating experience! ⭐️Freshness Compared to my usual shampoo, this one really tackles oiliness effectively. Even after two days without washing, my hair doesn't get as greasy as it usually would. Of course, it can't do much about the smell after that long, but still! ⭐️Affordability While I received this as a tester, if I were to purchase it, I'd say the price-to-volume ratio is incredibly reasonable! ⭐️Lather You know how sometimes your hair doesn't lather well if you haven't washed it in a while? I used to do a pre-wash before the main shampoo, but with this one, I don't need to! It lathers up so well that you can get a thorough clean in just one wash.
Cons⭐️Fragrance While the scent is pleasant when using the shampoo alone, I have hair that absolutely needs treatment. The issue is that when using both the shampoo and treatment together, the fragrance becomes overpowering. Part of this might be because I use a strongly scented treatment, but still! It's important to balance the fragrances of your shampoo and treatment. ⭐️Stiff Bottle Opening When pumping, it feels like it's getting stuck and then suddenly releases. It's a bit difficult to control the amount. While it's not a major inconvenience, it is slightly annoying.
TipI have long hair that reaches my chest, and three pumps were enough to create a good lather! Overall, it seems like a well-rounded product with great value for money!

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros* This is an honest review as a Hwahae Tester winner! * * Fragrance: The scent of this shampoo truly lives up to its name - it's absolutely wonderful. I'm a big fan of musk scents and often use musk-based perfumes and body products. This shampoo's musk fragrance reminds me a lot of Byredo Bl*nche perfume. It has a cozy, mild soapy scent. It's really similar! If you love musk scents, you'll adore this one. I intentionally used only the shampoo without conditioner for a couple of days to test the lingering scent. The subtle fragrance while drying my hair was lovely, and the scent lasted quite long. I kept wanting to smell my hair! * Texture: It's neither too thin nor too thick, with just the right consistency. I was worried about the lather since it contains natural surfactants, but it actually foams up well! * The shampoo's clear color made me feel that it doesn't contain artificial ingredients. It gave me a sense of reassurance. I'll likely repurchase this shampoo for its fragrance alone. The scent is really amazing! Personally, since it's similar to my favorite autumn/winter perfume, I think I'll use it consistently during the colder seasons!
Cons* I have a somewhat sensitive scalp, and it's been dry lately. Whether it's due to that or an adjustment period, my scalp felt a bit flaky after using this shampoo. I've only been using it for 3-4 days, so I'm not sure if it's just an adaptation phase or due to dryness. However, it wasn't painful or severely flaky! * When I use this shampoo with a different brand's hair treatment, it feels like the shampoo's fragrance disappears. This made me think I should use products from the same line.
TipUsing the shampoo and treatment from the same line would probably make the fragrance last much longer! Also, if you have Byredo Bl*nche, using them together would be great!

The fragrance was pleasantly subtle, not artificial at all. I deliberately skipped using conditioner, and surprisingly, my hair didn't feel too stiff. My scalp's dead skin cells have reduced (even my husband agrees with this).
ConsThose who prefer a stronger scent might find it a bit disappointing.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe Hwahae Testers' review: Impressed by the transparent gel-like texture that's not too thick. It lathers up richly even with just damp hair - amazing! I have long hair that reaches below my chest, and just one and a half pumps were more than enough. So satisfying! The scent is described as musk, so I compared it to my musk shampoo at home. Surprisingly, the Biopen fragrance is more subtle and not overpowering, which I really appreciate! I've been using only this shampoo for 3 days without conditioner, and my hair still feels soft and not dry at all. Another win! The best part? I applied a full pump directly to my scalp and let it sit while brushing my teeth. There was absolutely no tingling or irritation! I've tried many shampoos, but this one truly satisfies.
ConsWhile the fragrance is subtle and not overpowering, it does fade rather quickly. It's a minor drawback, but not a deal-breaker.

I usually don't care for perfumed shampoos because the scent is often overpowering, but this one doesn't scream 'I'm a perfumed shampoo!' which I appreciate. Even though it's natural, I'm wary of fragrances as they can be harmful ingredients, but this one isn't too intense, so I'm pleased with it. The texture is just right - not too thin or thick, with a transparent, slightly viscous consistency like a regular shampoo. It lathers well, which is great, and has pretty good cleansing effectiveness too. I'm also happy with the ingredients. You know how most shampoos you find at the supermarket have sulfates listed near the top of the ingredient list? Sulfates are really not good for your hair, but this product is sulfate-free. The overall ingredient list is quite gentle, which is fantastic. I've used it daily for about 5 days, and I haven't experienced any itching or blemishes. I have an oily scalp, but I didn't notice any greasiness, so it seems to be a gentle, effective shampoo with good ingredients.
ConsOne downside is the size - it's a bit small. If you're living alone it might be fine, but for families, we'd probably go through a bottle pretty quickly. I wonder if they could offer a larger size? These days you can find shampoos with good ingredients that are cheap and come in large bottles. Maybe I'm asking for too much?
TipI found that two pumps were enough for one wash without leaving my hair greasy. I think others might want to give it a try too. This review was part of my experience as one of the Hwahae Testers!
