The Hwahae Testers Review My skin condition: I have dry skin, and in winter, if I neglect my skincare routine, my skin feels extremely tight due to deep dryness (even in midsummer, I make sure to apply all products up to cream). When choosing essences, ampoules, or creams, I prefer rich, nourishing products! Pros - I absolutely loved how the Sulwhasoo cream applies. It spreads smoothly and finishes with a satisfyingly rich feel! On the first day, I didn't quite get the amount right and felt a bit of dryness, but after that, my skin stayed hydrated until morning. This made my skin feel comfortable - when my skin is dry, it can get painfully tight! The texture is neither too heavy nor too light - I'd call it a fresh richness. The scent was also surprisingly fresh, more like plums than Sulwhasoo's typical hanbang fragrance. This made me think even those in their 20s could use it without hesitation. With consistent use, I really felt my complexion becoming clearer - I wondered if this was the antioxidant effect? The next day, my makeup also applied beautifully. I used it with great satisfaction as it didn't cause any blemishes.

If there's one thing to be cautious about, it's a few ingredients of concern! Even though I applied it generously every evening for ten days straight without missing once, and it didn't cause any blemishes, tiny bumps, or allergic reactions on my skin, I might hesitate to choose this if I were pregnant. That's the only slight drawback, which is why I deducted one star from my satisfaction rating. Other than that, it was truly impeccable!

I always use a home care device like Mer* to massage the product in, as it helps with absorption.
