- Hwahae UserDry SkinJun 23, 2022
I bought this for my teenager's blemishes, but I tried it myself with my dry skin. At first, I thought it was a bit thin when applying, but it absorbs quickly and the hydration lasts long. My teen, who has oily skin with lots of blemishes, also tried it and said it seems to calm down inflamed blemishes. It looks like the whole family can use this. The amount is generous, and I'd like to repurchase it for myself. The price is a bit high. We'll need to use it sparingly when applying. In summer, you could probably get away with just applying this. In the evening, I mix a drop of jojoba oil with this, and it keeps my skin hydrated until morning, eliminating the need for separate toner and emulsion. - Hwahae UserDry SkinSensitive SkinMar 4, 2021
As one of The Hwahae Testers, I'm excited to share my experience after using this soothing gel for two weeks! My skin tends to get heated easily and I'm prone to redness, so I always keep a variety of calming and cooling products on hand. What struck me most about this product was its exceptional ability to reduce redness and soothe my skin! I can see myself reaching for it even more frequently during hot summer months. The gel has a lovely texture that absorbs beautifully into the skin, leaving it feeling hydrated like an emulsion. The overall user experience is fantastic. Personally, I'm considering repurchasing this product specifically for its skin-calming properties. One area for improvement would be the packaging - I think a pump dispenser would be more hygienic than the current tube design. Given that this is such an effective calming product, I believe emphasizing its cooling properties in the marketing could help attract new users who might not be familiar with it. Lastly, since it's such a versatile cooling product that can be used for various purposes like heat relief, it would be great to see a larger size option available. I found that mixing it with my favorite serum not only provided a soothing effect but also boosted hydration. - Hwahae UserDry SkinMar 4, 2021
It absorbs well, leaving the skin feeling moisturized, and the scent isn't overwhelming. I think it would be really beneficial for those with dry skin! While it absorbs well initially, I felt my skin tightening up pretty quickly afterwards. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinMar 3, 2021
My skin type is combination dehydrated! I have to be really careful about what I put on my face because I'm prone to blemishes if I use the wrong products. But I absolutely love the ingredients in this one! I expected the soothing gel to be transparent, but it's actually white. It's definitely very hydrating and you can feel the cooling effect. The absorption is great too, which I really appreciate. For someone like me who doesn't have dry skin, it feels light and refreshing without being heavy. If I had to point out one downside... it's quite expensive. The price is a bit wicked. Also, I think those with dry skin might need to layer it with something else. I think it would work well if you apply this soothing gel along with a lightweight moisturizer. - Hwahae UserDry SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinMar 2, 2021
**Review from The Hwahae Testers** ✔️Absorption: 5 out of 5 points > Applies smoothly without any stickiness. > As shown in the photo, it's not a thick consistency but rather fluid, so it spreads evenly without clumping in certain areas. ✔️Absorption rate: 5 out of 5 points > Absorbs well without leaving any residue ✔️Hydration: 4 out of 5 points > It feels wonderfully moisturizing when applied. > Unlike other products I've used that felt heavy rather than hydrating, this one truly feels like it's packed with moisture. ✔️Versatility: 5 out of 5 points > Usually, products are designated for either face or body use, but this can be applied anywhere. It's great that buying just this one product allows for versatile application. ✔️Cooling effect: 3.5 out of 5 points > The product description mentions 'Green tea water, known to reduce heat, helps soothe the skin.' True to this claim, I felt a cooling and calming sensation upon application. I haven't used many cooling cosmetics before, so it's hard to set a benchmark. That's why I gave it a middle score plus one. For me, this level of cooling is quite sufficient! ✔️Moisture retention: 3.5 out of 5 points > My previous product kept my skin hydrated almost all day, but with this one, I sometimes feel dry by evening or night. That was a bit disappointing. ✔️Scent: 2.5 out of 5 points > I usually apply it after showering, so the shampoo scent often masked this product's fragrance. Initially, I didn't pay much attention to the scent, but for the sake of this review, I made a point to smell it properly. Honestly, I didn't like the fragrance (in my opinion). It's too artificial, and not in a pleasant way. ✔️Price: 2.5 out of 5 points > I mainly used it on my body, which required quite a lot of product each time. Considering this, the price of about 46,000 won doesn't seem that cheap. For me, it's a bit pricey. If it were in the 30,000 won range, I might consider repurchasing, but at this price point, it's a bit disappointing. - Hwahae UserOily SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinMar 2, 2021
First off, the tube design makes it easy to grip and use. The texture is incredibly smooth and pleasant, like an emulsion. It's gentle and non-irritating, so I feel comfortable using it daily. I used it on my body, which tends to be very dry. After application, it absorbs quickly, and I subjectively noticed that the areas where I applied it became ever so slightly brighter due to the hydration. While it feels moisturizing when applied, unfortunately, the hydration doesn't seem to last as long as I'd hoped. It absorbs quickly and isn't sticky, but paradoxically, that seems to make my skin feel drier as time passes. If you follow the instructions and apply multiple layers, the moisturizing effect improves. If you have time, try layering it with short intervals between applications - you'll likely experience enhanced hydration this way. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinMar 2, 2021
When applied after evening cleansing and left on overnight, my skin feels moisturized and not dry the next day. It doesn't cause any blemishes either. It doesn't absorb immediately and requires patting the face several times for it to sink in. There's a slight sticky feeling to it. I apply it generously on dry areas and then add another layer. For my heels, I apply an extra amount and wear socks over it, which keeps them from getting dry. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAtopy SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinMar 2, 2021
As someone who wears makeup almost daily and uses powder, I was worried about my skin cracking and dead skin cells becoming noticeable. But after trying this product, I found its refreshing texture and quick absorption left no residue, allowing me to hydrate my skin even before applying makeup. I could use it both morning and evening, so I just applied this before my makeup routine. Being fragrance-free made it feel even better for my skin - after all, that means no added perfumes! If you're looking for an intensely hydrating mask-like effect in the evening, this might not be suitable. And if you prefer the fresh scent of a soothing gel, you might want to try a different product! I noticed that when I only applied this before my makeup, my skin felt less dry even after using powder later on! - Hwahae UserDry SkinSensitive SkinMar 2, 2021
When I applied it to my face that felt hot, it quickly calmed down. I also tried it on my dry hands in winter, and it absorbed nicely without feeling greasy. My child with acne used it too and said it felt gentle and refreshing without any stickiness. After some time, the moisturizing effect seems to diminish slightly. I wish the hydration would last a bit longer. It's great for applying lightly when you feel hot after exercising or when blemishes are starting to appear. It calms the skin down quickly. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinMar 2, 2021
It's a lightweight, easily spreadable emulsion with a nice texture. I personally prefer that it's fragrance-free. I was initially reassured by the gentle ingredients, and after using it, I can confirm its skin-friendly nature as I experienced no blemishes. With my sensitive combination dehydrated skin, I'm using this as a substitute for my usual emulsion. It's hydrating, but for longer-lasting moisture, reapplication is recommended. This mild product would be especially suitable for those with atopic or extremely dry skin. After a week of use, I can vouch for its gentle formulation as I've had no skin reactions. While there's not much to complain about, the hydration doesn't last very long. It would be great if they came out with a richer cream in this line to complement it. For prolonged hydration after evening cleansing, try layering this product with an oil or serum.
