I thought it might feel heavy due to its thickness, but surprisingly, it's not as weighty as I expected. It's perfect for my dry skin right now, though it might be a bit rich for me in warmer seasons. I'm using it with hopes that it will boost my core elasticity as promised!
ConsThe fragrance is quite strong, which might be an issue for those with super sensitive skin.

The packaging felt light and eco-friendly, giving me the impression it would be good for my skin. I liked that it had a separator for the inner and outer parts, making it a more hygienic package to use. Scent: It doesn't have an overpowering fragrance, just a unique but subtle scent. Texture: Amazing... it's delightfully rich and creamy. Review: I don't have many wrinkles on my face, so I'm not sure if I saw the full effects of this cream (I also didn't use it long enough to see significant results). I can't say whether it produces dramatic effects or not.
ConsWhile it's creamy and moisturizing, I have an oily T-zone and it caused some blemishes to appear! Even when I applied it lightly, I noticed some small pimples popping up. Maybe it's because I'm tired from exam period...
TipMake sure to apply your skincare basics and even out your skin texture before using this! It's quite rich, so it doesn't spread easily otherwise.

Though I haven't used it long enough to notice significant effects, it gives a skin-tightening sensation after application and absorption. Generous amount 👍 *Skin type -Combination dehydrated skin with oily T-zone and deep dryness Packaging -Clearly environmentally conscious. Even the box tape and padding are paper-based. The product container has engraved text instead of stickers, making a great first impression. Texture (application) -Blue, thin Vaseline-like consistency. Expected a light, bouncy feel for a firming cream, but it's quite rich and dense. Appears oily but not overwhelming, though it slightly sticks to hair. Absorbs quickly for such a thick cream, which is very satisfying. Scent -Initially has a subtle powder fragrance, later developing into a strong shea butter scent. Not particularly bothersome during use, but the long-lasting fragrance might be divisive. Effectiveness -While this type of cream requires long-term use to see results, I didn't notice significant effects after a week. However, the skin-tightening sensation upon application suggests potential benefits with continued use over a month or more.
Cons- Polarizing scent. Strong lingering shea butter fragrance - Feels more oily than hydrating, which might be too heavy for those seeking a moisturizer - Lack of spatula could make application inconvenient - No significant effects noticed during short-term use
Tip- Due to its rich texture, it's recommended to use this as the final step in your skincare routine, after all other products. - To avoid feeling too heavy, apply a thin layer rather than using too much product in hopes of seeing faster results. - Given its rich feel, it's best suited for fall and winter use, rather than summer.

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.ProsAbsorption: ★★ Moisturizing power: ★★★★ Hydration: ★★★★ Recommended skin type: Seems best for oily skin types. True to its name, this cream really delivers on that firm, bouncy feeling when you apply it! It absorbs quickly, making it perfect for a speedy morning routine before heading to work. The thick, rich texture when you apply it really makes you think, 'This is going to make my skin so firm and elastic!' It's quite impressive!
ConsOverall feel: ★★★ Blemish potential: ★ Not recommended for: Those with combination skin might find it tricky to get the right amount. I personally found it a bit uncomfortable as it felt slightly tight in my drier areas. The scent might be a bit divisive - you'll either love it or hate it. It would be great if it came with a little spoon to help control the amount used!
TipUsage tip: Feel free to embrace the full bouncy texture if you like! Personally, I found it a bit too thick, so I mixed it with a bit of toner on my hand before applying. This seemed to improve the moisturizing effect and gave it just the right amount of bounce!

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 combination dehydrated skin with some blemishes and super sensitive skin. Texture: Slightly heavy and rich feeling, more suitable for winter than summer. Absorption: Despite being a heavy cream, it absorbs well without leaving any residue. Hydration: When applied as a finishing step after basic toner, it maintains moisture well, keeping the skin hydrated. In my opinion, it's more suitable for evening use rather than morning. Scent: There is a fragrance. It's hard to compare it to anything specific, but I think it might be polarizing. Color: It's light blue, but doesn't leave any visible tint when applied. Blemishes: I didn't experience any breakouts after using it. Being vegan, it's a gentle cream.
ConsThe fragrance is probably the most disappointing aspect. The initial scent is quite strong and might be divisive. While you may get used to it after a while, those with sensitive skin might find it challenging.

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.ProsPersonally, I place a lot of importance on skincare basics, and I think this cream is a pretty good product. What I appreciated most was that it's environmentally conscious, from its ingredients to its packaging. The texture feels thick like an ointment, but it also gives you that 'I'm moisturized' feeling. It has a scent reminiscent of shea butter or coconut, which might be hit or miss for some people. I'm usually sensitive to smells and not a big fan of coconut scents, but I didn't mind this one. As soon as I applied the cream, I felt like my skin was being deeply hydrated from within, and it felt moisturized to the touch. Although it's not winter yet, I can see myself using this every night when it gets colder and drier.
ConsThe downside was that after using just this cream and toner for about a week, my whole face started feeling itchy. I got the sensation that I might suddenly break out in blemishes. It's disappointing because even now my skin feels itchy and I'm worried about potential breakouts.

As soon as the weather changed, my skin started to feel parched, so I was on the hunt for a rich cream to soothe the dryness. Luckily, I won this product and used it for a week. The verdict? I'm absolutely thrilled with this cream! ❗️Texture: It has a slightly rich, creamy consistency ❗️Scent: A pleasant fragrance, reminiscent of flowers or coconut ❗️Application: At first touch, it seems to sit on the skin, but as you massage it in, it absorbs quickly within a couple of passes ❗️After-feel: Shortly after application, your skin feels incredibly soft. It doesn't pill when you apply foundation or sunscreen afterwards ❗️Blemishes: I experienced no irritation at all, and my skin actually felt calmer ⭐️Recommended for: Those looking to tackle both hydration and anti-aging concerns, and anyone who doesn't mind a rich texture Personally, I'm so satisfied that I'll definitely keep using it. I love applying it generously as a sleeping mask at night and waking up to soft skin in the morning. Even when I use it before work, my skin stays hydrated until evening without any dryness. With its skin-friendly ingredients, brightening effects, and ability to combat dryness in cold weather, this cream seems perfect for sealing in your skincare routine.
Cons❌The middle lid handle is very difficult to open. This definitely needs improvement. ❌It might not be suitable for those who already have slightly moist, hydrated skin.

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.ProsThe Hwahae Testers' Review 1. Quick absorption & Matte finish The rich texture adheres to the skin, leaving it feeling powdery. It absorbs well, even with multiple applications. Despite having extremely oily, dehydrated skin, I'm satisfied using it. The matte finish seems particularly suitable for oily skin types. No issues when applied before makeup. 2. Deep hydration & Elasticity While it doesn't feel intensely moisturizing even with multiple applications, it seems to focus on deep hydration and elasticity. (The surface doesn't feel noticeably moisturized, but there's a firm, bouncy feeling underneath) 3. Eco-friendly, Gentle formula Appreciate the environmentally conscious packaging. Passed low-irritation tests. Didn't cause any acne breakouts.
Cons1. Fragrance I have asthma and my respiratory system is particularly sensitive to scents. The fragrance is strong, so I deducted one point for that. Despite the intensity, it didn't cause any respiratory reactions like swelling or itching. 2. Value for money No dramatic effects. Wouldn't purchase at the full price of 28,000 won (would consider repurchasing in the low to mid 10,000 won range). Many affordable products offer good elasticity and hydration, so I'm not sure it's worth the extra cost. 3. Limited efficacy, Caution for oily skin No clinical trials for improving elasticity (apart from anti-wrinkle functionality). No blemishes so far, but oily skin types should be cautious due to two ingredients that may clog pores. 4. Packaging No spatula included. Dislike the jar packaging as it can accumulate dust and debris over time. Also inconvenient for those with long gel nails, as cream can get stuck under and between nails. Dislike the jar lid design as well. If many Hwahae Testers who received this product for free have similar concerns, paying customers are likely to be even more dissatisfied. Hope to see quick improvements in these areas.
TipSince it doesn't feel particularly moisturizing, it's better to thoroughly hydrate with other skincare products before applying this cream. Even for oily skin types, finishing with this cream after other products leaves skin feeling pleasantly matte.

However, after using this cream, the hydration was so good that I never experienced that feeling again. Moreover, the next day, my skin became plump and firm, just like the product name suggests. Texture ⭐⭐⭐ It's a very rich cream type. I'm mainly using it at night as it might cause pilling during the day. Sensitivity ⭐⭐⭐ I have super sensitive skin, to the point where I get blemishes on my forehead just from wearing a hat. However, I've never experienced any irritation from this product.
ConsPackaging ⭐⭐⭐ The container is made of such light plastic that it feels like a sample size. Also, there's no separate spoon, so every time I use it, I feel like I'm contaminating the product with my hands. Usually, these cream types come with a built-in scoop, but this product doesn't have one, which is disappointing. Scent ⭐⭐⭐ I was okay with it, but my friend who uses it with me disliked the coconut scent.
TipIf you apply a generous amount to your face before bed (not recommended for oily skin), you'll wake up with skin that feels as plump as if you've just done a mask!

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.ProsMy skin type: Combination dehydrated skin, leaning towards oily Current skin condition: Unfortunately, I have a lot of closed comedones and acne scars on my cheeks and chin, along with excess sebum and blackheads. I'm usually very careful when choosing skincare products because I'm worried about skin reactions. Application: The texture is rich and velvety, making it a dream to apply! I love massaging it into my face with my hands - it glides on so smoothly, it's a real pleasure. You can really feel it melting into the skin. Absorption: As I tend towards oily skin, I dislike products that leave a greasy residue, but this absorbs quickly and feels great. I've been using it for a few days in this routine: toner pad or skin > aloe > essence (optional) > soothing cream > this firming cream. Even with two creams, my skin doesn't feel greasy - just soft and smooth! Scent: The first things that caught my attention were the scent and color! The fragrance is stronger than I expected. It doesn't bother me as I'm not particularly sensitive to scents, but those with sensitivities might find it a bit much. The color is a beautiful light blue - so pretty! I'm always worried about skin reactions when trying new products, but this one felt great with no adverse effects! No breakouts or irritation - I think it's a great cream for maintenance alongside my soothing products!
ConsThere's not much to complain about, but I was a bit disappointed that it didn't come with a spatula. Other than that, everything else about it is perfectly fine to use, so I don't have any major gripes!
TipBecause of my skin type, I don't use it every day - I alternate it with another soothing cream every other day. Even if you don't apply it to your face daily, I think it would be great to use it on your neck area every day with a gentle massage!
