I have combination dehydrated skin that becomes super sensitive when I'm tired. Usually, most skincare products work for me, but I've found the most effective ones to be moisturizers with gentle ingredients or products containing panthenol. +Scent: Nothing particularly bothersome / Neutral +Texture: Minimal stickiness after absorption / Not powdery What I liked: After application, my skin has a lovely glow. At first, it seems to absorb well if you apply it properly. Later on, my skin feels like it has truly absorbed the product. It seems great for combination dehydrated skin. Personally, it worked really well for me!
ConsThe amount is a bit small, so regardless of the price, it feels like you're using a lot in one go.
TipWhen I apply it at night before bed, I wake up without any dryness in the morning. For those who use multiple creams, this works well as a night cream.

Amazingly, it absorbs completely, which I love. After absorption, it doesn't feel light but rather nourishing. True to its name 'Glow Essence Cream', it leaves a rich finish, so I'd especially recommend it for dry or combination skin types. It seems to be a great cream for seasonal changes, without causing any blemishes!
ConsThe cream's texture is quite thick, so it might feel a bit harsh when spreading it on the skin. There's a distinct scent that could be hit or miss, but I personally didn't mind it.

It has a nice firmness and richness that feels perfect for applying makeup over in winter. Despite the glow, it doesn't feel overly greasy and absorbs quickly without much transfer. I think even those with oily skin might find it suitable... It's definitely worth a try!
ConsThis cream just doesn't suit my preferences... It's a bit much for me. First off, it's not very hydrating. Rather than a glow from moisture, it seems more like the cream itself has a shiny texture? The application is extremely thick and difficult to spread! If I usually use a pea-sized amount for my face, with this cream I need to use double that to barely get it to spread. While the ingredients are gentle, it still feels irritating when applying, so I really hope they improve this aspect.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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.ProsApplication: A slightly rich cream texture. A bit thick but spreads well. Absorption: Good. After applying, skin feels slightly firm & moisturized. It doesn't give a light, fresh finish with just hydration. Instead, it feels like applying a snail cream or honey-like texture, leaving a dewy and moisturized finish with a glow. Moisturizing power: Feels like it creates a protective layer, so lasting power is good. Seems ideal for dry skin types. Packaging: Pump-type allows dispensing desired amount and is hygienic. As it's still early use, not sure if product will fully dispense when nearly empty.
ConsFor extremely sensitive & combination dehydrated skin: When I first tried it on the back of my hand, the thick texture made me worry it might cause blemishes if applied heavily. So initially, I started applying small amounts on my forehead and outer parts of my face. It feels nicely moisturizing, especially with the current cold and dry weather. However, for those with very sensitive skin or prone to blemishes like me, it's better to avoid applying on *cheeks, nose, and chin*. It should be fine to use on the forehead, neck, and outer cheek areas.
TipThis product could be excellent for those with dry skin. The scent is pleasant, and the texture is neither too thick nor sticky - just right, giving a firm feel that seems perfect for this autumn and winter. Even if you don't have dry skin, as the weather is getting drier, it could be good to apply small amounts to areas you feel are dry.

Plus, it dispenses just the right amount without any accidental spills.
ConsThe texture is a bit thick, so I had to apply some pressure when spreading it on my skin.
TipTo combat the thickness, I applied it while my skin was still slightly damp.

Absorbs well: It absorbs just enough not to sit on top of the skin! Not bad at all. Hydration: As a moisturizer nomad, I find the hydration excellent for fall and winter use. It has a slight oiliness, but it works great as a cream + base combo! Recommended skin type: Dry skin! However, not recommended for dehydrated-oily skin types.
ConsPrice: It's quite expensive. If it goes on a big sale, I'd want to use this exclusively except during spring.
TipI highly recommend using a hydrating toner or serum before applying this cream! If you use a watery exfoliating toner or just slap on any toner carelessly, you might experience deep dryness and discomfort.

Cons- Texture may feel too oily for those with oily skin types - Might feel slightly thick for those who prefer lighter formulas - Unable to check remaining product (opaque container)
Tip- For very dry skin, mix in a drop of hydrating essence - If matte foundation feels too drying, blend in 1/3 of this cream to combat deep dryness

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.ProsIt's perfect for winter or seasonal transitions when skin gets really dry! The texture is a bit heavy and thick, so I've applied it both right after toner and over a hydrating emulsion. As you can see in the photo, it goes on with a slight white cast, but absorbs quickly without feeling sticky or uncomfortable. While it's a bit rich, so probably not ideal for oily skin types, it's great for those with dry skin. When I apply it before bed, my skin feels noticeably more hydrated in the morning! Given its heavier texture, I'd avoid using it under makeup as it might cause pilling. It's perfect as a night essence cream.
ConsPersonally, I'm not a fan of heavy textures, so that aspect was a bit disappointing for me. I'll probably use it only on particularly dry days rather than as a daily product. But this is just my preference - if you're not sensitive to thicker textures, you might find it works well for you.

Texture: The consistency is slightly sticky. It's close to a solid form, which I really liked because it doesn't leave your hands feeling tacky. As long as it doesn't come into contact with water, it applies smoothly without feeling stiff. I thought it might pill, but surprisingly, it spreads on creamily and evenly. Hydration/Moisturization: Rather than feeling like it's filling the skin with water, it gives a stronger impression of locking in moisture to prevent dryness. While I wouldn't recommend it to those who prefer water-based creams, I would suggest this product for those with very dry skin or those who experience extreme dryness in winter. For those who already have a hydrating cream, it might work well as a final step in your routine. I felt like it helped maintain the hydration and moisture from other skincare products for a long time. Packaging: It's a pump type, but in a form I've never seen before - quite interesting! It didn't dispense well at first, but after a few pumps, it worked fine. The container design feels hygienic since you don't need to scoop it out. The pumping action is smooth and effective. Compatibility with other cosmetics: As someone with dry skin, I often use moisturizing sunscreens and cushions. This product worked really well with those, although it did make my skin feel a bit tight. Since this product has a slightly thick consistency, those who use matte cushions or foundations might benefit from waiting a bit before applying makeup. Repurchase intention: Absolutely! It's a great product for those with very dry skin!
ConsPackaging: One downside is that you can't see how much product is left... It's a bit inconvenient that the inside isn't visible. Another minor issue is that too much product comes out when pumping, making it difficult to control the amount. However, this is something that can be managed individually, so I didn't consider it a major problem. Water: If you apply it while your skin is still damp, the product suddenly becomes very stiff. When I first used it, I unknowingly applied it to slightly damp skin, and it was hard to spread, which was frustrating. It's best to remove as much moisture from your face as possible before applying. I found it applied well after using a toner or light emulsion! Just be careful with water when using this product.
TipNever apply directly to damp skin! Use as the final step after all other toners and emulsions!

At first, it seems rich, but it absorbs well into the skin, leaving a subtle radiance without any stickiness! ❤️It's the epitome of a bouncy texture. ❤️When I apply it generously at night, I wake up with skin that's still moisturized and plump, without any feeling of dryness! ❤️Most importantly, despite being a thick cream with some richness, it doesn't cause any blemishes, which I'm extremely satisfied with!
Cons✔️Due to its texture, it feels a bit heavy for morning use. If not fully absorbed before applying makeup, it might cause some pilling or sliding of base makeup. ✔️It's a bit too thick to rub in vigorously. However, it's fine if you warm a small amount between your hands before applying, or gently pat it onto your face in small amounts. ✔️It's disappointing that you can't see how much product is left in the container.
Tip🔹For dry skin: Mix in a drop or two of face oil or ampoule for easier application and double the hydration! 🔸For oily skin: Mix with a small amount of lightweight, oil-free ampoule for morning use. Even for oily skin types, applying a small amount to dry under-eye areas and letting it absorb fully before makeup can reduce the appearance of fine lines! (Just avoid the inner corner to prevent eyeliner smudging!)
