Feels Harsh on Skin

Doesn't Last Long

Irritating

Causes Allergic Reactions

Causes Breakouts

Disrupts Oil-Moisture Balance

Not Effective for Pore Care

Has Particles

Lightweight

Easy to Apply

Not Sticky

Easily Absorbed

Pleasant Scent

Moisturizing

It's too irritating and the effects are minimal.
I bought it after seeing the Instagram ad, but I was a fool...
I keep making the same mistake over and over again...ㅠㅠ

Spreadability: While it contains some granular particles, it melts smoothly and applies well. However, after application, a lot of breakouts came up.
I may have been sensitive, but it was almost like I regretted buying this product.

Absorption: It absorbs well.
It also dries well.
But it didn't suit me well, as I have dry skin.
The stinging sensation came as an unwanted bonus.

Moisturizing: No, it has no moisturizing power. I don't recommend it for dry-skinned people. I also don't recommend it for those with sensitive skin. It just backfires completely.

시카비타 캐비어 크림

Establish a solid skincare routine! Gently patting the product to ensure full absorption before moving on to the next step can help maximize the effects. Try applying a little extra before bedtime and let it soak in overnight for better results!

The downside is that the price is really too expensive. I think the price is high compared to the effects, as I haven't seen major results yet due to the short usage period. And since the moisturizing power is weak, it may not be suitable as a winter skincare product for dry or combination skin types.

The packaging; The tube-shaped packaging seems hygienic and neat. The green tube with yellow lettering design looks very clean and stylish... It was right up my alley.
Moisturizing; The moisturizing power seems slightly lacking, but since I have combination skin, this lightweight formula seemed to provide the moisture I was looking for in the fall. However, it may feel quite dry in the winter.
Texture; The formula spreads smoothly without any stickiness. At first, it's a dense cream, but when applied, it transforms into a refreshing cream texture. There are little granules in the cream that seem to dissolve as you massage it in! The scent is a subtle blend of centella and vitamin.
Effects; I haven't yet noticed any brightening effects or soothing benefits from the centella. It's possible these take longer to see, but the Hwahae Trial period was too short to experience significant results. However, as someone with sensitive skin, I'm glad I didn't experience any breakouts during the trial period! The ingredients seem gentle.

The scent was not too strong and it has small granules that melt well while applying

The moisturizing effect doesn't last as long as expected, so it feels like it dries out quickly
(It felt a bit light for dry skin in the winter)

The product has good absorbency
It has good spreadability and moisturization
It doesn't feel heavy, so it can be used well before makeup or during the day

Although it contains cica ingredients, I didn't experience any noticeable soothing effects on my troubled skin... Other than that, I don't have any major complaints about this product!

As mentioned in the product description, it definitely delivers great moisture. Even though I have oily skin, I used to have severe dehydration, which led to excess sebum and dead skin, causing my makeup to flake off. After using this product, my dead skin has significantly reduced, and my makeup applies much better now. I've been living without a moisturizer, and the dryness is gone - it's wonderful.
The texture is smooth and doesn't leave a heavy, oily residue after application, which I really liked.
(+Unfortunately, I don't have any photos of the product on my skin as I was too busy, so I've only included a product photo.)

I always finish off with a mist after applying the cream! That way, it absorbs better and I feel like I can see the effects more effectively!

While there was a brightening effect when applied to the eyes or cheeks, when I applied it to the chin area to get rid of blemishes, I ended up getting pimples.

I thought it was a moisturizing cream suitable for dry skin since it was said to be good for moisture, but when I applied it, it finished off nicely and cleanly! Although I'm not sure if the whitening effect is clearly visible since I've been using it for 2 weeks, I feel like the area around my eyes looks brighter the next day after applying it!

It seems okay to apply in the morning and evening
Since it doesn't feel overly sticky or heavy, if you apply it for a long time, you'll likely see a whitening effect

- Moisture does not last for a long time
The moisture did not last until morning

- It feels refreshing, so it seems to have a whitening effect, but the review period was short, so it was difficult to properly confirm

Skin Type: Blemish-free and clear dry skin type
Slightly flushed, so I prefer moisturizing products

Current Skin Condition: During the seasonal change, flushing starts to appear in the morning and evening

Texture: Cream type, not thick or oily
Applies very smoothly, feels fresh and soft

- Lightweight and refreshing, minimal stickiness

- Slightly calms the flushing

- Scent is not strong, slightly herbal

Fragrance
The fragrance is really... Looking at the ingredients, there seems to be fragrance, so is it because of the fragrance? The fragrance of the cosmetic is too strong 😢 I've been using mostly fragrance-free basic products, so that might be why, but the cosmetic fragrance lingers for a while after applying the cream 😢 It would be better if you could remove the fragrance.. If the fragrance was fine, I would have given it 5 stars, but I'm deducting 1 star because of the fragrance 😢
Lightweight Spreadability
This could be an advantage, but I think it might be difficult for dry-skinned people to use this cream in the winter! However, I think it's a cream that's good to use all year round.

Texture
There are little green granules in the cream! It has a texture where the granules burst when applied.
Spreadability
It applies lightly and smoothly - it has a refreshing feel? There was no stickiness after application, and I thought it was a moderately moisturizing yet lightweight cream.
Calming
I didn't really feel much calming effect... I felt it was lightweight and moisturizing, but I didn't notice my skin improving after using it.. If I had used it for a longer period, I might have felt the calming effect, but during the 2 weeks, I just felt it was a decent, lightweight cream.
Finish
I think it's a very refreshing and lightweight cream! I really liked that there was no stickiness.

In the short term, I haven't gained any groundbreaking tips, but since it's such a lightweight type of cream, applying it in thin layers and allowing it to absorb works well.
I layered it about three times, and it applied smoothly without any greasy feeling, leaving my skin feeling moisturized and soft.

It does have pore-clogging ingredients, which is a bit of a stumbling block for my combination skin that relies heavily on the Hwahae app.
Since most of my breakouts are caused by clogged pores...
This is the reason for the one-star deduction.. Sorry~~

I'm not sure about the centella or brightening effects.
I applied it generously to the small bumps caused by wearing masks, but it didn't seem to have a significant effect compared to other centella creams. As for brightening, there wasn't a noticeable difference either.
But I think if I continue using it for a longer period, there may be some effects, as with most skincare products..

As mentioned in other reviews, there was a stinging sensation.
It wasn't extremely unpleasant, but there was a slightly irritating stinging on my cheeks that went away over time.
(I often get that stinging feeling when using Kiehl's moisturizers as well)

Wow, the volume is small but the price is quite high.
It seems the caviar is the reason for the high cost~
But if the product is really good, I'd still buy it despite the high price.

Skin Type: T-zone oily/U-zone normal combination (moisture-deficient)
Enlarged pores, recently due to wearing masks on the nose and chin
Struggling with persistent acne bumps.
Current moisturizer in use: Primera Watery Cream

❤ The spreadability and texture are really good. It's a semi-transparent cream formula that is lightweight and not heavy. The caviar capsule granules also spread without any irritation.
❤ The absorption is decent. My skin usually has trouble absorbing creams and tends to be surface-level, but this product sinks in well. There's no greasy residue feeling.
❤ As described, it seems suitable for oily skin types~ My skin is quite honestly combination, so creams not meant for oily skin tend to make my T-zone rebel, but this cream exceeded my expectations. There was no oil surge reaction immediately after application or upon waking up, and no dryness either.

1. It has good spreadability.
2. Apply it generously at night and sleep.
3. I was told that my complexion looked better just 3 days after using it.
4. I regret not taking a before photo, as the dark spots around my eyes that had been faintly visible since moving into my new home became noticeably diminished.
5. Since it's just the cream, I first dotted it on the areas with freckles and blemishes, let it absorb, and then spread it evenly across my face.
6. To be honest, I'm usually a rather negative reviewer when it comes to cosmetics, focusing more on the downsides. But this product is just so perfect for me.
I expect even better results if I purchase the full set!

1. Since it's not a set, the Caviar Cream alone may not provide the best effects, which are better achieved with the full set.
2. The amount is small. (That's probably why they gave you two.)

1. It brightens the skin.
2. It does not feel sticky.
3. If you apply it generously in the evening, you can feel your complexion looking brighter in the morning.

The downside is that when I used this cream after exfoliating, it stung a bit.

And the fragrance is included as an ingredient, which isn't ideal. It would be better if it was fragrance-free.

And the price... 😢 I'll probably only buy it when it's on sale.

🥰Hwahae Trial Reviewer Review🥰
This cream is a whitening and wrinkle-improving cream, so it seems like you need to use it consistently to see the effects..

After using it for about a week, I felt like my skin looked a bit brighter, though I'm not sure if it was just my imagination.
The cream has a nice application texture - not too runny or too thick, so I could apply it comfortably.

I was a bit worried that it might have a fishy smell since it's made with sea grapes, but the fragrance wasn't unpleasant even for someone like me who is sensitive to scents!

And my skin is super sensitive...
After using this, I didn't experience any breakouts or allergic reactions.
Looking at the ingredient list, there don't seem to be any bad ingredients aside from the fragrance.
Usually whitening and wrinkle-improving cosmetics don't have great ingredients, so I didn't use them much, but this cream has good ingredients, so even someone with sensitive skin like me could use it well!

I have a very sensitive, acne-prone skin type.
This product was really irritating and felt like my skin was peeling off right after I applied it. 
So I asked my sister, who can use just about anything, to review it.
I think people with very sensitive skin should avoid this product!!
(I got pimples the very next day 😭)

The packaging felt like the product was found in a forest, which made me feel good when I received it!

- Spreadability
It seemed to have good spreadability and moisture, and my sister said she didn't need to apply a moisturizer on top of it.
