I love the luxurious, round soap shape. The essence that comes out appears to help with skin hydration and nourishment. The viscous, gel-like texture of the essence is intriguing.
ConsIt dissolves easily, so you need to use a soap net or similar tool. The black soap liquid drips and can make the surrounding area messy. The price is quite high.

I can't say there was anything particularly impressive about it. Considering the price, I probably won't buy it again. Unfortunately, my blemishes are still the same.
ConsI bought this based on a YouTuber's recommendation, but it's quite high-maintenance. First, you have to soak it in water. If you don't soak it enough, it doesn't lather well, but if you soak it too much, it becomes a mushy mess. It's hard to get the balance right. Second, when you take it out of the water after soaking, it drips black water everywhere. This makes the sink dirty, so you have to clean it after washing your face. That's the most inconvenient part.
TipA magnetic soap holder might work best. It prevents the soap from sticking to the surface.

You see, I don't have oily skin naturally, but rather sensitive, delicate skin. However, lately with all the rain and humidity, I've been getting these tiny blemishes and excess oil. Add wearing a mask on top of that, and it's like a triple combo blemish bomb! My already large pores seemed to be getting even bigger. But after using this for about a week, it's like my oil production was reined in, and I felt my oil and moisture balance evening out. It's amazing! It's not like some harsh soaps on the market that make your face squeak and strip away all the oil. Instead, it moderates the excess sebum just right, which is impressive. My skin is particularly fussy - my nose and forehead tend to be oilier than other areas. So I use this soap just on my nose and forehead, and a gentle cleanser for my cheeks and eye area. It creates this perfect overall balance! I'm definitely repurchasing when I run out.
ConsThe one and only downside is that it leaves black streaks everywhere! After washing your face, if you set the soap down, it leaves dark marks on the sink. Anyone who sees it might think you haven't cleaned your bathroom in ages! If only they could change the color of the soap, it would be perfect!
TipWhen you're washing your face, try just focusing on your nose and forehead areas, avoiding your eyes and cheeks. Let it sit for a moment before rinsing. If you're prone to blemishes around your nose and forehead, this method can be really helpful!

I used this product from September 30th to October 8th. 1. After cleansing, my skin feels squeaky clean. 2. It lathers up quickly with just a touch of water, no need for a foam net. 3. Even after toning, there's no residue left (while it can't tackle blackheads, it effectively removes dead skin cells and whiteheads in one go). 4. It removes heavy makeup well (from eyeliner to CC cream, everything comes off without leaving residue). 5. It has a pleasant, subtle herbal scent that's not overpowering. 6. Creams and serums absorb faster after use. § Overall: With its excellent cleansing effectiveness and proper hydration, even those with super sensitive skin could benefit from this product. §
Cons1. If not dried properly, it becomes mushy and the liquid drips down the soap dish, making a mess (even bathroom humidity can cause it to soften and create a mess without use). 2. I used it 3 times a week due to its great cleansing power, but I developed blemishes on my cheeks. For my skin, 1-2 times a week seems more suitable. 3. Once it softens, even a small amount of water releases a lot of liquid, making it difficult to control the amount used. 4. It runs out faster than expected. 5. After washing, when the skin dries, it feels tight (hydration is a must!). § Overall: Keep your skin hydrated and the soap dry! Once it softens, no amount of drying will bring back its original firmness... §
TipAfter use, apply more moisturizing cream or serum than usual. Your skin might feel dry in the morning. With proper hydration, your makeup will apply smoothly the next day and your complexion will look clearer.

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.Pros**I'm in my 30s with very dry skin, large pores, and redness** 1. First off, the soap bar is quite large, so you get a lot of product. Using it morning and night, it'll probably last half a year! The scent is reminiscent of traditional herbal soap, but it's not unpleasant. (Though it might be an acquired taste for some) 2. The convenience is great - just wet your face, lather up the soap, and massage for 60 seconds. No need to squeeze tubes, wait around, or rinse off multiple products. It's a fuss-free routine. Plus, it's eco-friendly with no plastic waste. 3. Unlike foam cleansers that can cause deep dryness, this black sugar soap doesn't leave my skin feeling tight. It even seems to make my skin feel a bit softer!
Cons1. You're supposed to massage for 60 seconds, but it's hard to keep track of time. I end up guessing when it's been long enough, haha. And honestly, 60 seconds feels quite long when you're actually doing it. 2. I expected the 'pack' to have a thicker consistency, but it's just soapy water. It tends to drip off your face while massaging. And since it's black, it can leave marks on clothes if you're not careful. They do wash out, but it's not the mask-like experience I was hoping for! 3. It feels like they've just repackaged a moisturizing cleansing soap as a 'pack'. There's nothing particularly special about it - it's just a regular cleansing soap.
TipI've been using this instead of foam cleanser morning and night. It definitely leaves my skin feeling less tight than foam cleansers, which is great! However, the massage pack effects they're advertising are hard to notice. You'll probably still need to use a separate functional pack for those benefits.

It's pricey, but lasts longer than expected (so it feels less expensive). There's a noticeable difference in skin texture and dead skin cells when using it versus not. Pros: ✔️ Convenience ✔️ Smoother skin ✔️ Evens skin tone Suitable for combination skin, prone to occasional blemishes, with a complexion that changes daily. No particular allergies. Being a soap, it's great that you can use it while showering without the extra steps of other masks (no need to rinse, dry, apply, and peel off). As a new mom, my skin hasn't been the same, and I've been searching for the right foam cleanser. After using it morning and night for a week, I still want to continue using this product. No blemishes appeared, and it doesn't dry out the skin much. I massage for about a minute, and after rinsing, my complexion looks clearer. The whiteheads on my nose and the bumpy skin under my eyes have become incredibly smooth.
ConsCons: ✔️ Messy ✔️ Initially thought it was expensive, but it lasts about 3 months Not expensive at all!!!! The black color of the product makes storage a bit messy after use. The product needs to be soaked in water, so the melted product can drip. Not sure how long one product will last (varies by individual), but 30,000 won feels a bit pricey (If it lasts about a month, then it seems reasonable)
TipThere's not much of a pro tip needed - it's just so easy to use! I use it during my regular face wash routine. Just massage a little longer, enjoy the pleasant scent, and it becomes a simple, relaxing self-care moment.

I was eager to try it after noticing the premium ingredients. I checked the instructions. This soap is versatile - it's both a facial cleanser and a mask. Following the directions, I wet it and worked it between my palms until it formed a gel-like texture. I then massaged it onto my face in circular motions for about a minute. Before rinsing, I spent 10-15 seconds massaging the remaining product on my hands. After washing, both my face and hands felt surprisingly smooth. The results exceeded my expectations. Some say it dissolves quickly, but that's not always the case. The soap's quality seems to depend on how it's used and stored. After a week of use, while the initial wow factor faded, I could visibly see the improvement in my complexion.
ConsThe price is quite steep, making it difficult to use generously. It can't be stored like regular soap. While creating the gel in your hands, a lot of product can slip between your fingers, reducing the size of the soap.
TipAfter massaging your face, use the remaining product on the back of your hands for an extra cleansing boost.

You don't need to roll it much; just place it on your skin and gently rub the areas that need more attention for easy dead skin cell removal. You can feel the effects even after one use - your skin becomes smoother. It's great for exfoliating 2-3 times a week, but also gentle enough for daily use.
ConsWhile it's undoubtedly an excellent product, the texture definitely needs improvement. After using it once and placing it on the soap dish, it started to melt and become mushy. I understand it's not a completely solid soap, but it's important to be able to use the entire product, so the texture needs to be improved. Since it's a cleansing massage product, perhaps a tube format would be better than the current soap-like shape. With the current product, I suspect about a third of it will go to waste because it melts so severely after just one use.
TipThe product seems surprisingly strong for exfoliation, so those with thin skin should limit use to about 30 seconds. For daily use, you can use it like a regular cleanser for gentle dead skin cell removal. It's best to rinse the product off immediately. I used it twice in a row after rinsing once, and since I have thin skin, the area around my eyes stung for several days.

It left my skin feeling incredibly hydrated and nourished * After cleansing, my complexion seemed clearer, possibly due to reduced blackheads
Cons* Difficult to store * Being a soap, it can feel a bit inconvenient when it runs down your arms with water while cleansing * Sometimes it feels like rubbing with just hands isn't quite enough * It seems you need to do a first cleanse for makeup removal before using this
Tip* It might be good to use something like a brush to massage it in. I think you could use any tool you have at home and still see results
