There is a hygiene cap and a spatula, so it seems like it will be easier to use in a clean manner. As soon as I opened it, a deep forest-like or floral scent wafted up, and every time I apply it, I feel a sense of healing. I tend to have severe dry skin during seasonal changes, but this product is lightweight, absorbs quickly, and applies smoothly, which I really liked. Many moisturizing creams feel heavy and greasy, but this one has a refreshingly clean finish. I think I'll be able to use this product comfortably from now until winter.
ConsThe only downside is that the spatula is not built-in, which is a bit disappointing. The scent is a bit strong, so it may be a matter of personal preference.
TipAfter basic skincare, I use the spatula to scoop out a small amount and apply it all over. In the evenings, I apply a bit more and let it absorb, so I don't wake up with dry skin in the mornings.

First off, I was struck by how refreshingly fragrant it is! The initial impression is truly a crisp, grassy scent! Of course, it intensifies a bit as you spread it, but it doesn't linger long enough to be bothersome and quickly dissipates! It puts me in a good mood every time I apply it. 2. It's so hydrating! Perfect for my dry skin... In winter, I can't bear to use matte finish cushions, but with this on, there's no deep dryness at all! 3. The texture is great too! Not too thick, not too runny - just right! I took some photos to show you, though I'm not sure if they'll convey it well. It has a slightly icy feel that makes application a pleasure. 4. I love how quickly it absorbs! Despite its fast absorption, it doesn't leave my skin feeling parched, but maintains a subtle moistness. Unlike other products that sit on the skin and make it greasy, this one's different and better! Plus, it's almost free of harmful ingredients... (As an aside, the slightly weighty glass packaging feels luxurious too!) I'm planning to get through this winter with this product!
Cons1. There's not really anything to complain about... but people who dislike grassy scents might find the fragrance polarizing? Personally, I'm a fan!
TipIt's great to apply this before a matte cushion to build a strong base!

Unlike products that just make your skin look shiny on the surface while feeling tight underneath, this one actually provides good hydration. As someone with extremely dry skin who pays a lot of attention to moisturizing, I tried using this instead of my current moisturizer and couldn't tell the difference. Satisfied! Scent: There's a refreshing coolness when you apply the cream, followed by a strong burst of herbal and floral fragrances. It's intense enough for others nearby to notice. Personally, I like the scent, but it might be polarizing. Texture: It's firm and doesn't run. Even after being stored sideways in my bag for half a day, no cream stuck to the lid. As someone who dislikes cream sticking to the lid, this was perfect. The packaging shows real attention to detail. It feels like receiving a luxurious gift, which made me appreciate it even more!
ConsIf I had to pick one drawback, it's that fragrance is added as an ingredient. It's probably difficult to achieve this natural scent otherwise... As someone who uses Hwahae to find products with minimal harmful or irritating ingredients, I think this product would be even better if they could remove these added fragrances.

It's a cream with a slightly thick consistency, but it's not stiff or heavy. True to its name 'Deep Moisture Cream', it's not too light, making it perfect for seasonal transitions like now. It feels like it can really tackle deep dryness! The cream absorbs well and spreads easily. I love that it comes with a stick applicator for hygienic use. Plus, the subtle birch-like scent is so uplifting!
ConsIf you're looking for a moisturizer with an aloe gel-like texture, this might not be the right fit for you!
TipFor best results, don't apply too much at once. Instead, spread a small amount and layer it gradually for better hydration!

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.ProsDry + acne-prone skin I didn't have high expectations, but I was lucky enough to be selected as a Hwahae Tester and used this for about 2 weeks. When I first applied it, I thought it was quite unique. It felt heavy going on, but the surface felt light, which made me go 'Oh?'. Due to my dehydrated skin, I used to feel some tightness after cleansing with foam cleansers, but the morning after using this, I didn't feel any deep dryness. (Later, I had a short overnight trip and didn't use it one evening, and the next morning after cleansing, I felt a slight tightness.) The hydration is definitely noticeable. You can really feel the difference between days when you use it and days when you don't. It has a light surface feel but rich inner moisture, so it's perfect for those who find very light products challenging when the weather gets dry, but also find heavy products uncomfortable. With this, you can experience both a light feel and locked-in hydration. (If you prefer lighter products, I recommend using it only in the evening.) Overall, I'm satisfied and would consider purchasing it with my own money. However...
ConsThe scent... it really smells like an artificially created plant scent. Yes, plants. It's not a fragrant, water-infused plant scent, but a very artificial one. This is why I can't say I'll definitely buy it. The one-star deduction is solely due to the scent. I recommend avoiding this if you dislike artificial or plant-like scents, or if you're sensitive to fragrances. My skin isn't extremely sensitive, so I didn't notice much issue with the ingredients themselves.

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.ProsFirst off, I was touched by how carefully packaged the product was. It gave me the impression that the product itself would be just as meticulously crafted. My skin gets extremely dehydrated in fall and winter, so I need products that balance oil and moisture well. This one definitely fits the bill. Texture and application: It's not an ultra-thick formula, but rather a soft, creamy texture that feels like it's infusing moisture into the skin as you apply it. Scent: I'd describe it as woody. It's not unscented, but the fragrance is pleasant and gives a sense of calm. Hydration: It seems to focus more on hydration than oil, which works great for my dehydrated skin. It feels moisturizing without being heavy. I can't stand products that feel suffocating on dry skin, so I appreciate that this one strikes a nice balance - it's hydrating with just the right amount of emollient coating. Blemishes: I didn't experience any particular breakouts or skin issues.
ConsWhile the scent is nice, I wish it was a bit more subtle. Also, I can't help but feel the amount is slightly on the smaller side. In winter, I'd love to have a larger size so I could apply it generously.

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 is a review from The Hwahae Testers. I have a dry skin type with severe deep dryness. 1. Container - The small size fits easily in one hand, making it convenient to store. It's also perfect for carrying in a pouch! Considering the thick material of the container itself, it doesn't feel relatively heavy. 2. Texture, Absorption, Hydration - I thought it would have a heavy texture, but it quickly absorbs into the skin after application. I didn't experience any deep dryness while using it. Right after use, I felt my skin texture becoming smoother. Interestingly, despite providing sufficient hydration, it leaves a unique film on the skin surface - not quite like the oiliness you feel when absorbing a soothing gel. It's as if a protective layer has been applied. It reminded me of what a shea butter lip balm would be like if it came in cream form. Overall, I was satisfied with the moderately rich texture, good absorption, and hydrating power. 3. Scent - It seems to have a mix of herbal scent and the characteristic fragrance of cosmetics. Somewhere between bamboo and birch forests. Personally, I wouldn't say the scent is particularly good, but it's not bad either. It's a fragrance that might be hit or miss depending on individual preference. 4. Simplicity - I liked how basic the overall design and the cream itself were. It feels like it's focused on the essentials without being cluttered. 5. Application - It applies smoothly without any stiffness! Despite not having a crumbly texture, it spreads adequately on the skin as if melting when rubbed in. 6. Inner Packaging - I was really surprised by the packaging quality. The use of paper gives it an eco-friendly feel, and it's so pretty that it's a pleasure to unwrap. The packaging itself is delicate and meticulous, making it great for gift-giving too.
Cons1. Spatula Storage - A small spatula is included, but there's no designated place to store it, so it's exposed unless kept separately. While it's good for use, the awkward size of the spatula makes it cumbersome to manage regularly, and I was concerned about hygiene. 2. Ingredients - I was disappointed to see that Hwahae's product label indicates one allergen-inducing ingredient. Although it didn't cause any blemishes for me, it feels a bit disappointing considering the brand's emphasis on good ingredients. 3. Scent - I've included the scent in both the pros and cons as the characteristic cosmetic fragrance might be polarizing. While it's not terribly unpleasant, I'd recommend those sensitive to fragrances to consider this aspect before purchasing. 4. Wrapping - This is also both a pro and a con. It might be considered excessive packaging due to its extreme meticulousness. While it's incredibly beautiful, it ultimately creates unnecessary waste.
TipRecommended for dry skin types, not recommended for oily skin types. It seems like a cream that's too heavy for morning use but good for evening application. If you apply too much at once, it might feel like there's an oily film, so it's best to use the spatula and either skip it in the morning or apply very thinly and partially.

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 application is fantastic... It has a moisturizing feel with a touch of richness, gliding on smoothly and adhering perfectly to the skin. It absorbs well too. Unlike some rich creams that can feel like they're sitting on top of the skin, this one doesn't feel slippery or greasy. Instead, it leaves a subtle richness that creates a beautiful glow, while the rest seems to be well-absorbed! I've seen great results for deep dryness! I usually have a go-to cream, but during times when my skin isn't at its best or during seasonal changes, I'd suddenly feel very dry, especially in the evening when wearing makeup. After using this cream for just 2-3 days, I realized my deep dryness had disappeared! The scent might be divisive, but I quite liked the unique fresh floral or herbal fragrance. I usually prefer unscented cosmetics, but I found this pleasant. The packaging was truly impressive. Packaging is surprisingly important, including the product container itself. I love Sidmool products, but their packaging can be a bit plain, so I was thrilled when I received this - the packaging instantly lifted my mood. I thought, with good marketing on Instagram and such, this could become really popular given its quality.
ConsThe only downside might be that it's in a jar? But that's not really a con for me. While jar packaging might seem less hygienic than tubes, I actually find the jar more attractive, so I don't consider it a major drawback. I wouldn't recommend this for those with oily skin. They might find it too rich. As someone with dry skin, it works well for me, and I like how this slight richness seems to help my base makeup adhere better, but it's definitely not for those with oily skin.
TipI've been selected for The Hwahae Testers several times, but there were only one or two products I felt I must repurchase. With this one, though, I immediately looked up the price and where to buy it when I finished it. Despite having sensitive skin, it caused no irritation, and I was satisfied with its hydration and application. I'm quite picky about creams, and it's rare for me to be wowed, but with this one, I noticed my skin wasn't tight and felt soft and smooth the morning after first use. I'd recommend this to those with dry skin who don't mind a bit of richness, or anyone looking for a moderately rich cream for their evening skincare routine. I'm glad The Hwahae Testers gave me the chance to discover such a great product!

It absorbs beautifully and provides instant soothing effects. For my dry skin type, it balances oil and moisture perfectly while delivering excellent hydration. I loved that I didn't need any other products - even after waking up, my skin wasn't dry but remained moisturized. The generous amount goes a long way, providing ample hydration and calming effects with just a small application. The packaging is great for recycling, and I appreciated that the lid isn't made of mixed materials.
ConsThe scent is both a pro and a con. Personally, I love herbal and forest fragrances, but I think it would have been better if it was just a tiny bit less intense. Still, as it's a relaxing product, I'm considering repurchasing.

Despite its thick-looking texture, I thought it would feel heavy, but it glides on like whipped cream the moment it touches your skin. It has just the right amount of richness and moisture, perfect for fall and winter rather than summer. When applied at night, you wake up to velvety soft skin. It tackles deep dryness, making your makeup go on beautifully. I was also delighted by the thoughtful, gorgeous packaging when I received it.
ConsAs someone who doesn't particularly enjoy strongly scented cosmetics, I found the intense fragrance when applying the cream a bit disappointing. However, the product's advantages far outweigh this minor drawback.
TipFor mornings, I apply plenty of serum, then a small amount of this product before makeup. In the evenings, I layer it thinly two or three times, which leaves my skin feeling as soft as if I'd used a sleeping pack. Its rich texture makes it great for use on the face and neck at night.
