The herb-like grassy scent and a slight citrusy..? note are very natural and pleasant.. The ingredients are also good!♡ Even if I really like a scent, if it's too strong, I get a headache and dislike it, but this one applies gently and pleasantly, and after a while, it lingers on the skin with a very subtle scent. I love it. The watery, lightweight lotion formula also applies well and is perfect for summer!!! (It would be great if they came out with soap and body mist in Chicago....)
ConsThe weather is a bit dry outside of summer.. In spring, I can manage, but in fall and winter, I switch to different lotions ㅠㅜ I wish they had separate summer and winter versions ㅠ And the volume seems too small. Even though the amount is already small, since the product is light and watery, I end up using a lot and it runs out quickly.
TipIn the fall and winter, if you want to feel this scent even a little, it's good to mix the unscented body cream and this one in a 1:1 ratio. The ratio can actually be adjusted freely according to your mood.

It's a refreshing fragrance, not too strong, and it's not too thin or too thick - the absorption is great, so I'm really satisfied!! I'm the type who scrutinizes things like absorption, spreadability, and fragrance when I buy products, and this one passes the test! I prefer unscented products, but this one is good. It's certified vegan, which I really like, and the whole family could use it. When I apply it to my body, it doesn't cause any small bumps or pimples, which is great. Some regular body creams can clog pores and cause breakouts if used for a long time. The amount is quite generous too~haha Since it's a pump, it's super easy to dispense and use.
ConsThere wasn't any. Just from the first image (the packaging), I couldn't have guessed, but indeed, with cosmetics, you really need to try them out to know if they suit you or not. Even if I bought it with my own money, I wouldn't feel like it was a waste.

The lemon-based fragrance is pleasantly refreshing. It fills in the fine lines all over the body, giving a smooth, even application. The texture is in between Illiyoon and Cetaphil - not too heavy or too light. Illiyoon is great for summer, Cetaphil for winter, and Cica Go is perfect for spring and fall!
ConsWhile it doesn't feel like a heavy occlusive layer, it is still quite moisturizing, so it may be better suited for spring and fall rather than winter. The price point is a bit disappointing.

As a vegan product, I was worried the scent or feel might be lacking, but if I had used it blindly, I wouldn't have known at all. The application is smooth, and after applying, my skin feels moisturized without any stickiness. It's great for a quick morning application.
ConsThe price is a bit higher than regular drugstore products. If you dislike citrus scents or have a cat, the fragrance might be an issue. Personally, I love citrus, so it worked out perfectly for me.

There's a very faint orange and quince peel scent. And it's not an oily formula, so the finish feels refreshing. It's suitable for people who don't have extremely dry skin and can't usually wear thick, sticky lotions or creams.
ConsIt lacks moisturizing power for extremely dry skin, so I mixed it with a body oil. And I found the price range to be a bit high. These days, body products are reasonably priced even at drugstores, so I'm not sure if this is worth the price compared to other body lotions. Even with a 50% discount, is this product worth the price and volume?
TipFor those with extremely dry skin, I recommend mixing this product with a body oil or body cream. I found this product alone wasn't moisturizing enough for me.

When I first applied it, there was a light lemon-like fragrance that was barely noticeable. The texture was neither too runny nor too thick, and it absorbed well into the skin. It looked a bit oily, but when I applied it, there was no greasy residue left, so I could put on my clothes right away without any sticky feeling, which I really enjoyed.
ConsSome body lotions can leave a coated, oily feeling on dry skin, but this one absorbed completely, so it might not be enough for extremely dry skin.

I received the Hwahae Trial Reviewer product and applied it to my face and body for a week. ●Fragrance The faint lemon candy scent was very pleasant. However, the fragrance does not linger. It's just a nice scent when applying! ●Texture, Spreadability It spreads smoothly and is more moisturizing than thick. There is no heavy silicone-like feel, so it's lightweight rather than heavy. I usually find body lotions to be drying, so they don't spread well and I end up using a lot, which is why I prefer body oils. But this product spreads easily, making it convenient to use~ ●Moisturizing Power While it definitely lacks the silicone-like feel and absorbs well without stickiness, it is a bit drier than other body lotions. However, except for the area with eczema on my toes, I didn't feel any dryness when applying it to my body. The spreadability is excellent, so I'm much more satisfied using this than Illiyoon or Johnson's body lotions. ●Facial Use Experience I initially only used it on my body, but since the texture and absorption were good, I tried it on my face as well. Over the week, I didn't experience any issues. However, for my extremely dry skin, using it solely on my face did feel a bit drying. That's probably why it's marketed as a body product. The moisturizing level is certainly not lacking for the body. I used to apply the Sidmool Atorrlotion on my face, but personally, I'm more satisfied using this product on my face as well.
ConsThe price is probably the most disappointing aspect. But since it's a vegan product... Also, while it was sufficiently moisturizing for my body, for those with atopic dermatitis, the moisturizing longevity may be lacking. However, the lack of a silicone-like feel means there won't be any itchiness from that.

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.ProsThis product has a refreshing, lotion-like texture that glides on smoothly. It can be used comfortably throughout the year, except for the depths of winter. With its subtle citrus scent, even someone like me who dislikes citrus notes found it agreeable. The formula absorbs quickly into the skin, transforming it into a well-moisturized, supple body. I was pleased that I could apply it generously without it feeling heavy or greasy.
ConsThe downside? Compared to other products, the volume is a bit on the smaller side, yet the price is higher. The opaque packaging also makes it difficult to tell how much product is left. I would only purchase this on sale. As for body lotions in general, I wish they came in larger sizes since they tend to get used up quickly. However, if your skin is extremely dry, especially in the depths of winter, this lotion may not be enough on its own. In that case, I would recommend using a cream or layering this lotion with a cream.
TipGiven how gentle and smoothly this product applies, I was able to use it on my sensitive facial skin without any issues. After applying it for several days, I did not experience any breakouts or dryness. When used on the face, it provides a subtle, long-lasting glow without any dryness. Since it already imparts a dewy finish, you may want to skip using a separate dewy/luminous base makeup. For the winter months, pairing this lotion with a routine of 'Houttuynia Cordata & Cotton Toner Pads, Marula Oil Ampoule, Vegan Lotion, and Marula Cream' would result in a wonderfully hydrated and radiant complexion.⭐️

It was very refreshing and I liked it~It's a light fragrance so it was perfect😊 ✔Texture It's a cream-type texture that's not heavy! ✔Moisturization After applying, it's soft and clean~I really dislike stickiness, but this has none of that, so I liked it! ✔Design It's clean and without any unnecessary elements, which I liked. The design is quite different from the lotions sold at marts, so it was unique.
Cons✔Downsides ▪️ I usually enjoy lingering scents, but there's no lingering scent here🥲 ▪️ The light texture is good, but since my body is extremely dry, I had to apply a bit more. ▪️ For a body lotion, the amount is a bit small, and the price is a bit high, which is disappointing.
Tip🌈Overall I liked the fragrance and the non-sticky, non-heavy texture. And since it's a vegan product, I'm even more drawn to it! However, since my skin is extremely dry, I had to apply a bit more, and the price is a bit high compared to the amount, so it's a bit burdensome to use up quickly. I'd recommend this to those who dislike sticky and heavy fragrances!
