  Pros

  I purchased the Hwahae Deep Shot set. I can use it together with the device.

  Cons

  Normally, when I apply this type of gel, it stays moisturized until the end of the device usage, but this one dries out quickly. And I felt a slight irritation on my skin, and the next day, I had some small pimples pop up. My lips around the area were also itchy, just like other people. Ah, the device is good, but this is too disappointing.

  Pros

  The belief that it is a specialized gel for the device is more or less a marketing tactic. Looking at the full ingredients, it seems to be more of a marketing ploy.

  Cons

  When I bought the device, the instructions stated that I must use the dedicated gel, so I had no choice but to try it. And despite the fact that there are no irritating ingredients, I'm not sure if it's just me, but I experience a numb, abnormal sensation on my lips while the gel is on my skin. It's temporary, so it's not a major issue. The price-to-quantity ratio is very low, and I have to apply a lot of it. I don't know if it's just me, but it dries up quite quickly, so I have to reapply it frequently. The cost-effectiveness is very poor. On top of that, the Medicube website and app are inconvenient, and you have to spend over 60,000 won to get free shipping. There are no coupons or sales, and since there's nothing else to buy from Medicube, it's very inconvenient to just buy the gel. I have no intention of repurchasing it.

  Tip

  After looking at the ingredients, I don't think I necessarily have to use this product, so I plan to use a different brand's product. The photo is of the gel after 8 uses. I tried to use it sparingly and even used a mist alongside it, but it still dried up quickly.

  Pros

  This product is one of those that is ambiguous to rate. As the name suggests, it's a 5-star product as an age-boosting gel, but as a general skincare product, it's a bit 'meh'. The ingredients are all gentle, and not too many (33 in total), so it's a decent product. However, after using the age-boosting device, the skin feels a bit stiff(?) which is strange. I got this as part of a Hwahae Trial Reviewer set, and for Hwahae use, this gel cream is the best match. But that's about all it's good for... I convinced myself to use Hwahae, Air Shot often when I bought this at full price, but it ended up being too much of a hassle, and my skin would get a breakout or two after using it, so my mom is the one using the Hwahae now. My mom uses the Hwahae 3-4 times a week, and this gel cream is always her go-to when she does.

  Cons

  As a general skincare product, this is not a great one. The skin feels like it dries out too quickly. So I always did a water cleanse after using the device, but when water touches it, it becomes incredibly slippery. It feels like the water cleanse doesn't even work properly. If I just leave it on, the skin feels stiff, but if I layer a cream on top, it feels like the skin can't breathe. Cleansing with water alone doesn't feel like it's removing everything properly... It's a tricky product to work with.

  Tip

  Use this with the Hwahae and Derma Shot!
