ConsI haven't experienced immediate soothing effects yet, so I'll need to use it consistently to see results.

It absorbs well with a pleasantly firm texture. While houttuynia cordata is said to be good for soothing, I can't say I've noticed major calming effects. But if you're looking for a reliable essence, I'd recommend this one!
ConsThe product runs out quickly due to its small size. I bought it with a refill, but I think it would be better if it came in a larger size to begin with!
TipAs a Hwahae Tester, I've found this essence works hard to provide hydration without feeling sticky. It absorbs well into the skin, helping to even out the complexion. While it may not dramatically reduce blemishes or redness, it's a solid choice for those with combination dehydrated skin looking to layer their skincare routine. The formula doesn't cause pilling and leaves no residue, making it suitable for daily use. However, those with super sensitive skin might want to patch test first to ensure no irritation occurs.

So I've been using it as a light application before makeup!! Since it has a lightly thin formulation, it absorbs well without any stickiness after application. It's better for light application than a product for hydration! And it's incredibly gentle, so I think it would be a great product for those with sensitive skin.
Consit was far too lightweight for me :(

A small amount covers a wide area well, and it absorbs effortlessly without pilling, making it perfect for use before makeup. Absorption rate: โญโญโญโญ While it doesn't absorb super quickly, it forms an essence layer on the skin that stays put for a while. Over time, it gradually absorbs, providing deep hydration, while leaving the surface non-sticky and fresh-feeling. Soothing effect: โญโญโญโญโญ Many users report that it's great for calming irritated skin, thanks to the Houttuynia Cordata extract. It's particularly effective in quickly reducing redness and soothing the skin, especially on blemishes or areas with a burning sensation. Moisturizing effect: โญโญโญโญ While it provides satisfactory deep hydration, you might need to pair it with a cream on days with harsh external factors for long-lasting moisture. It might be slightly lacking for dry skin when used alone, but it's sufficiently hydrating for combination or oily skin types. Irritation level: โญโญโญโญโญ Many users find it to be a truly gentle product with almost no scent and no reports of blemishes or burning sensations after use. It seems stable enough for even super sensitive or blemish-prone skin to use without issues! Recommended for: Sensitive, blemish-prone, and combination-oily skin types It's highly recommended for those who frequently experience blemishes or have thin, sensitive skin. It also seems well-suited for combination-oily skin types that are rich in oil but lack moisture.
ConsAs it doesn't absorb super quickly, it might feel slightly heavy for oily skin types in summer. Also, some users with dry skin find it a bit lacking when used alone in certain seasons, so if you have dry skin, it's best to use it together with a moisturizing cream!
TipApplying it for soothing purposes before putting on a mask helps maintain skin condition even during long wear. Also, layering a small amount just on blemish-prone areas seems to enhance the calming effect by the next day.

It absorbs incredibly well!
ConsBecause it absorbs so well, using only this product before bed left my skin feeling a bit dry.
TipIt's great for use on acne-prone skin.

It absorbs well and has great application. I also love that refills are available.
ConsIt's a bit disappointing that it's not sold in larger sizes.

Rather than feeling like water rushing down, it's more like a slow, steady flow that eventually stops. It doesn't feel like runny mucus at all. The absorption is great, and it doesn't leave a sticky residue. It just fills your skin with hydration! I absolutely love it!!!
ConsIf you don't have dry skin, it's not a big deal, but for those with super sensitive skin, using just this and a toner might not provide enough moisture.

I applied it right after cleansing and it absorbs well without feeling sticky, which is great. I felt confident using it due to ingredients like panthenol and houttuynia cordata. It's also non-comedogenic, which is reassuring. It feels like a purely hydrating product, so I think those with oily or combination skin will be satisfied, while those with dry skin might find it lacking in deep moisturization.
ConsThe one disappointing aspect is the lid. It doesn't click on securely, but rather just sits loosely on top. It falls off at the slightest touch, which is really frustrating. I really dislike the lid design and hope it can be improved.

While heavier than a toner, it has a fluid texture that absorbs really well! There's no stickiness, and it absorbs into the skin with a fresh feeling. It applies so lightly that it's perfect for use before makeup or before bed. After application, my skin feels firm and smooth, and once fully absorbed, it becomes soft and supple! The houttuynia cordata extract is great for soothing blemishes! My skin had been acting up lately, but after using this, I could visibly see the irritation subsiding bit by bit. However, it's not particularly high in hydration! Those with dry skin might find it a bit lacking in moisture. It's almost fragrance-free, so it should be suitable for those sensitive to scents.
ConsThe moisturizing effect doesn't seem to last very long. It's not particularly high in hydration, so it might be tricky for those with very dry skin to use effectively. When I pressed the pump to use it, the essence suddenly splattered all over my mirror... I thought it might only happen the first time, but it seems to occur almost every time I use it, which is quite inconvenient.
