The hydration and moisturizing effects are outstanding. It's gentle and non-irritating on the skin.
ConsThe scent is a bit artificial and quite strong. Those with super sensitive skin might find it hit or miss.

I have oily skin, but my inner layers are dry. Surprisingly, my skin doesn't get too dry in winter. During seasonal changes in spring and fall, my skin tends to become dry and sensitive, but this cream quickly hydrates it, which I love. It's not too heavy for oily skin, and it doesn't make my face overly greasy afterwards, which is great.
ConsWhile it feels moisturizing right after application, it seems to dry out quite quickly. Especially during seasonal transitions when my skin is prone to deep dryness, I notice it doesn't keep my skin hydrated for long. Also, the fragrance is a bit disappointing. It's somewhat reminiscent of men's cologne? Not particularly pleasant!
TipIf you have oily skin, try washing your face frequently with lukewarm water to remove excess oil, then apply this cream. It seems to help maintain some level of hydration. For us oily-skinned folks, applying too much at once can lead to excess oil and blemishes, so it's better to cleanse and apply small amounts more frequently.

The moisturizing formula has a slightly refreshing texture, so it would be better to use in spring and fall. There is a slight stickiness, but it's generally easy to use.
ConsI was able to try the test product after receiving a sample. The fragrance is like a swimming pool? It has a new tube smell.

While it may appear quite dense, it applies very lightly on the skin and provides a cooling sensation. It creates a thin film on the skin, with a slight slipperiness, but there is little residue or stickiness. - Absorption The product absorbs quickly into the skin even before rubbing it in. You can apply multiple layers without any heaviness. It feels more like a hydrating cream than a moisturizing cream. - Moisturizing Power It provides adequate moisture for normal to dry skin. In the dry autumn, using this product helped prevent dryness and tightness. It can be used both day and night. It should work for most skin types, except for extremely dry skin.
ConsThe fragrance is quite artificial. It's hard to describe, but it's reminiscent of rubber, plastic, or ointment. While not overpowering, the scent lingers on.

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.ProsTo begin the review, let me first share my skin type - it is extremely oily and sensitive. Just a short while ago, my skin was in turmoil and had not yet fully recovered, so I was in need of this barrier-strengthening cream. The biggest advantage of this product seems to be its moisturizing properties. Other reviews have mentioned that it can be a bit drying, but for me, with my oily skin, I found it to be extremely hydrating. The texture is not refreshing, but rather a bit thick. However, the cream itself is so intensely moisturizing that just a small amount leaves my skincare routine feeling thoroughly quenched. That said, those with oily skin may find that using too much can make their skin feel a bit greasy. So I've been using only a small amount.
ConsAs for the barrier-strengthening effects, I don't seem to have noticed much of a difference yet. Of course, I've only been using it for about 2 weeks, so the full effects may not have had time to manifest. If I do notice any improvements later on, I'll be sure to make a note of it. Ah, and the fragrance is a bit underwhelming... It's not terribly unpleasant, but it's a mix of the typical basic skincare product scent with a slightly refreshing note that I'm not particularly fond of. But it's not bad enough to make the product unusable.

(Used for 5 days) The period of use was short, and since my skin had become very sensitive, I didn't feel a noticeable difference that could be clearly seen with the naked eye. *Spreadability, Absorption -When I first scooped it out with a spatula, it looked like a heavy formula, so I wondered if it wouldn't feel stuffy. But once I applied it to my skin, it spread smoothly and was immediately absorbed into a bouncy texture. After applying it, my skin felt bouncy, and just like in an old advertisement, when I pressed my hand firmly on my cheeks and then released it, my skin bounced back~, which was visible to the naked eye! -Since it absorbed well, when I applied it the next evening, I significantly increased the amount. (I increased it to about 4 stacks of a 10-won coin's worth of product.) It absorbed smoothly without feeling greasy. *Moisture (I have an extremely dry skin type.) During the 5 days of use, I only applied water toner 2 times, essence, and cream, and there was no tightness. Normally, I layer toner and mist several times, then finish my skincare routine with essence and cream due to dryness and tightness. But even when I was rushed in the morning and just applied essence and cream after cleansing, my skin felt bouncy and smooth without any tightness.
Cons*Fragrance I can't use products with strong fragrances because my sense of smell is sensitive, and when I opened this, there was a faint medicinal-like scent. It wasn't strong, so I applied it, and the scent quickly dissipated. But looking at the ingredients, I saw that fragrance was included. Huh? Was this intentionally fragranced? *Puzzling Packaging When I received the delivery, I was wondering what was in the huge box. It was wrapped in flimsy paper padding and came bouncing around like a roller coaster. Along with a cheap brochure printed on A4 paper with a color printer... I used to use Biotherm a lot because my skin is sensitive and prone to breakouts, but this kind of packaging doesn't seem to help the brand image. Is this the packaging for a 60,000 won cosmetic product? I was surprised that the cosmetics arrived without being damaged.
TipI'll have to use it a bit more, but as of now, I do have the intention to repurchase!

But this cream has actually helped improve my skin texture and left my skin feeling soothed. 💛Moisture Balance As an oily-combination skin type, I can sometimes get by with just using this cream alone without feeling any lack of hydration. I think it would work well for both dry and oily skin types with some adjustments to the rest of the skincare routine. ++After one month of use++ -When my skin feels dry and muddy, applying this cream helps stabilize and firm it up. -I had some peeling skin around my nose from acne, and normally that takes more than a day to heal, but after using this cream at night and then doing my morning makeup, the peeling area had improved without any visible flaking. I can't say for certain it's 100% due to this cream, but I definitely felt it helped strengthen my skin barrier. -The price isn't the cheapest, but I'm really satisfied with the improvement in my skin texture and barrier, so even though I don't usually repurchase creams, I think I will for this one.
Cons🤍Packaging The glass container is heavy and the sticker feels a bit haphazardly applied. 🤍Fragrance It has a cucumber-like or grassy scent, kind of like an old-fashioned cosmetic.
TipI think this would work well even in the summer without feeling too heavy! + Be sure to use this when your skin is peeling!

Slightly heavy on the skin after application (becomes less so as it fully absorbs) - Efficacy: 👍🏻 [Efficacy] When I apply this, my skin feels plump and replenished from within the next day.
Cons[Price] The disappointing part is definitely the price... The product itself is great, but the price point makes it not easily accessible to purchase. [Fragrance] These days, even reasonably priced products can have great fragrances, but this one has a typical foreign cosmetic smell despite the higher price range, which is a letdown. Those sensitive to scents should take note. [Packaging] It's a jar-type packaging, and there's no spatula included, which raises hygiene concerns.
TipRepurchase Intent: ⭕️ Recommended Skin Types: All skin types except extremely dry and extremely oily

It's quite dense, you could say. Even though I have sensitive skin, it works well without causing any trouble. I was aware that it's a famous men's cosmetic, but I just learned that women can use it too. I also like that the moisturizing effect lasts a long time.
ConsThe price is outrageous, the quantity is small in comparison, and the scent is like cucumber, or rather, a masculine skin scent. I'm not a big fan of that kind of smell, but one of the men in my family uses it and says it's good. While they say the scent is nice, I think it's a matter of personal preference and some may not like it. Just keep that in mind when using it!
TipHmm, there's nothing special about it. Just apply it like any other cream and pat it in. Apply it twice..? Actually, there's no particular method needed.
