ConsThe matte glass container is too heavy and fingerprints show easily, which is annoying. The small opening makes it difficult to get the product out when there's a lot inside, which is frustrating.

ConsThere was a sense of heaviness, and I used it as a toner, but since my skin is dry, it felt dry a few hours later.

It's not heavy and light, so you can apply it multiple times without any burden!! It's moisturizing without a sticky feeling, so oily skin types will find it easy to use as well.
ConsThe contents come out a bit stuffy..! But on the bright side, you can say the amount is well-controlled ㅎㅎ

Texture: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Completely watery. Extremely versatile. And despite being watery, it's quite moisturizing. No stickiness. Seems suitable for oily skin types. Breakout Occurrence: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ No major breakouts, so I'm satisfied. Soothing Effect: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5 As the product claims, it has an effective soothing effect. Especially good to use as a toner pack when refrigerated.
ConsThis is both an advantage and a downside - the glass bottle is heavier than expected, and while the hole isn't particularly small, the product comes out a bit too slowly, making it a bit frustrating to use as a toner pack.
TipFor those with severe breakouts, I'd recommend mixing this with the Laneige Tea Tree Soothing Pad - the soothing effect is incredible.

Cons🌟 The glass bottle is a bit heavy, so those who tend to drop things should be careful. 🌟 The essence comes out in small amounts, which some may find inconvenient, but I personally liked it.

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.ProsFirst of all, I really liked that it was fragrance-free. The packaging and design made a great first impression!!! It was so clean and simple! And when I used it, the color of the essence was fascinating, but surprisingly, there was no scent at all. After using it in the evening, my face felt so soft and smooth in the morning. The essence has a fluid, watery texture like a water toner. Although it didn't seem to provide much calming, I could really feel my skin texture improving.
ConsWhen using it, the essence doesn't come out easily and I have to shake it a bit to get it out, which is a bit frustrating. But the amount is well-controlled, so that's good.

Skin Type: Combination skin with oily and dry areas, sensitive, and acne-prone Texture: The texture is watery, not completely water-like with no oil, but has a slight oily feel to it. It's not greasy or shiny, but seems to provide the necessary oil balance, so I didn't experience any tightness or dryness while using it. Ingredients: I didn't choose this product based on the ingredients. I just assumed that Primera would have good quality products. But I just checked and saw that it contains alcohol. I'm usually quite sensitive to alcohol, and it tends to make my skin red and itchy. However, I didn't experience any of those reactions while using this product. It's possible that the seasonal changes affected my skin, and I couldn't really tell. But during the time I used this, my skin didn't become red, hot, or itchy. Packaging: The packaging is quite pretty, which is a plus.
ConsPackaging: The glass packaging is very heavy... And the opening is too small, which feels a bit stuffy. Cleansing Balm: The cleansing balm didn't have a significant effect for me. It doesn't seem to be for exfoliating, but more for locking in moisture and hydration. And I prefer a cleansing balm that has a more refreshing, watery feel, but this one has a bit of an oily texture, which I'm not a big fan of.
TipFor those who don't do well with alcohol, I'd still recommend testing it out and seeing if it works for other aspects of your skincare routine.

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.ProsI was selected for the Hwahae Trial Reviewer program and used the product carefully every day! Before that, let me explain my skin type and lifestyle. I have combination skin and occasionally get one or two pimples that come and go. After work, I exercise daily to reduce facial heat and primarily use light, non-heavy skincare products. ⭐️What I liked⭐️ First! 'The flowing texture is suitable for the first step of skincare!' Many people use it as a cleansing toner or face pack, but it didn't suit me well as a cleansing toner, and my skin was already quite irritated from exercise. So I used it as an absorbing toner! Of course, it feels like running water when you put it in your palm, but when applied in multiple layers on the face, it's gentle and nice. I liked the light feeling. Second! 'Fragrance-free!' Primera is always known for its good ingredients, and this essence was also trustworthy in that regard. But just because the ingredients are good doesn't mean the fragrance is good too, right? At first, I was a bit startled because the essence is also brown in color, but it's fragrance-free! That made me trust it even more. Third! 'Ingredients' Of course, the ingredients are Primera's strength. This is a well-known fact, so I don't need to elaborate much, right? ㅋㅋㅋ Fourth! 'The face pack calmed my pimples!?' I wear masks and do intense workouts, so lately, I've been dealing with one or two pimples on my face. ㅠㅠ Pimple patches have become a daily routine for me, but this product has the ⭐️skin-soothing⭐️ effect, so I was a bit skeptical. But I applied the face pack on the pimple-prone areas, followed my usual skincare routine, and went to sleep. In the morning, the pimple was gone! I'm usually greeted by swollen pimples in the morning, so I was so touched to see it disappear. ㅠㅠ
ConsThere were so many things I liked, but if I had to point out some downsides: First! 'The texture is too runny' This essence is as watery as its name suggests ㅋㅋ It's so lightweight, and I think it might not be suitable as a standalone skincare product, especially in drier seasons. Second! 'The packaging is inconvenient to use' I didn't really mind the heavier packaging, but when using it, only a tiny amount would come out each time, which was a bit frustrating. ㅠㅠ Third! 'Needs additional hydration' This really should be used as a skin-only product. You absolutely need to follow up with a separate moisturizer. Otherwise, even in the spring, your skin can become dry and cracked.
TipSoak a cotton pad with the watery essence and use it as a face pack on the pimple-prone areas! You'll see your skin calmed and soothed the next day~!!

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.ProsThis is a Hwahae Trial Reviewer review. I'm using the Chaptoro and it seems to replenish moisture without any irritation at all~ Around the afternoon, my makeup used to come off, but after using this product, my makeup doesn't budge. When I first applied it, there was no scent at all, and it just went on like water, so I wondered if it would be effective, but my skin has become so moisturized, it's really great.
ConsIt's in a glass bottle.. It looks luxurious, but since my wrists are on the weaker side, the glass bottle is a bit heavy for me. And it comes out in very small amounts.. It's fine when using Chaptoro, but when using cotton pads to apply it as a toner, it's a bit inconvenient.
TipI recommend the Chaptoro~ It's more moisturizing than using it as a toner.

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.Pros1. Toner-like texture The texture was good for layering the product a few times after cleansing instead of using a toner. Since there is no stickiness, I'd recommend this to those who want to have a single product for toner and essence. 2. Moisture replenishment As a oily-skinned person, this product was sufficient for providing moisture. For those who find it troublesome to apply many products, this could be a good option for both refining the skin texture and replenishing moisture. However, I would not recommend using this as the sole product for dry skin types. 3. Packaging The glass packaging kept the product cool, especially in the winter. This naturally helped lower the skin's temperature, which was nice.
Cons1. Packaging While the packaging can be seen as both an advantage and a disadvantage, in this case, the product did not dispense well from the glass container. As someone with an impatient personality, I found it frustrating to use the product. 2. Dramatic user experience There hasn't been any particularly outstanding aspect of this product that would make me feel it's an absolute must-have. The positive points I mentioned earlier can also be found in other products. I'll update this if I have any changes in opinion after continued use.
TipThis can be a good toner alternative. For those who find skincare routines tedious, you can try using this single product for cleansing and moisture replenishment!
