ConsIt's certainly expensive. Retinol is a potent ingredient, so if used incorrectly, it can be quite irritating.

When applied, it's moisturizing and clean. It's not sticky and is lightweight. After applying the toner, it absorbs quickly. I have pores and my skin is on the thinner side, and there's a bit of discoloration around my cheekbones. My face has a slightly yellowish tone. I recently purchased the larger size. I think I'll likely continue using it.
ConsThe effect does not seem to be very significant. I am not the type to expect major effects from cosmetics, so I do not rely heavily on ratings when evaluating them.
TipI believe the Hwahae products can be applied without any concerns throughout the four seasons.

ConsI'm not sure what's effective for pore tightening. ㅠㅠ

Among the products of the same company and the same line, I mainly use the one with a slightly higher retinol content. I am using this product as a supplement, as it is relatively gentler and provides blemish care. Depending on the condition, I am using this supplementary product more and better than the main product, even for light care on a regular basis. I would recommend it as a helpful introduction to retinol and as a supplementary product for consistent care according to skin condition, rather than dramatic changes. It was a little stinging when I first used it.
ConsI started using retinol with this product! There were issues with the dryness and irritation that are said to be unavoidable with retinol products, but they quickly got better. Nowadays, I'm using it well as part of my nighttime routine.
TipMake sure to use a hydrating serum and cream generously. They are very helpful in relieving dryness and irritation.

The formula is lightweight and absorbs well, leaving my skin moisturized. It seems to be effective for soothing the skin, providing hydration, and reducing redness. I would recommend this product to those new to retinol or those with sensitive skin.
ConsCompared to the quantity, the price is not exactly cheap, but since I tried it this time and it was satisfactory, it seems to be a product I would consider repurchasing in the future.
TipGently misting the skin with a calming mist, applying the product, and then misting again with the calming mist seems to be less stressful for the skin.

I started by mixing 1-2 drops into the lotion I was using before, as I was afraid of the side effects. There was no irritation, and I didn't develop any rashes or flaky skin!
ConsI did not feel any significant effects from the retinol... and there was absolutely no change in my skin. As a side note, I tried a product with a slightly higher concentration, but my skin started peeling off ㅠㅠ I found it difficult to find the right product, so I gave up!

ConsHmm...? The product didn't have much effect on my skin, and it seems like it could cause trouble if not applied properly depending on skin type. When first introducing retinol, do a skin test with a small amount and use it carefully!
TipIf the retinol ampoule is suitable, it would be good to use it together with the cream from the same line! As everyone knows, retinol should be applied at night~

ConsI did not feel any remarkable effects. This is better than the blue bottle of Innisfree Retinol. It's great. I'm not sure about the effects of Cica.
TipIf you are sensitive to retinol but still want to use it, I would recommend Hwahae.

Since it has a low concentration of retinol, I'd recommend it as a product to use while gradually building up tolerance.
ConsIf you are looking for a more dramatic effect, I would not recommend this low-concentration product.
