It's a reliable product. The name of the product is 'Essence', but it has a light feel, so I've been using it as a toner. The hydration is not exceptionally high, so I apply it in two layers.
ConsWinter can sometimes lead to a lack of moisture for dry skin.

ConsThere is none yet. It seems like it will continue to be used well going forward.

I recommend it for dry skin.
ConsThere's not much to be disappointed about. The only downside is that it's a jar type, so you have to wipe around the edges when scooping it out..?

It doesn't sting when I apply it, and the formula is lightweight, which I really like. We all have those days once a month when our skin looks blotchy and dull, right? Even on those sensitive days, this product worked well for me. I'm glad I tried it because the gentle formula is just what I was looking for. As a heavy-handed user, I use a cotton pad to apply it in the morning and then layer other lightweight products on top. In the evening, I use the essence as a toner. With this usage, the generous amount goes by quickly, which means I reach for it often!
ConsThe only potential downside I can think of is that it may feel a bit drying for those with dry skin. This can't be used on its own - it's much thinner and more lightweight than typical essences on the market. While that's a plus for me, it could be a drawback for others. If I had to nitpick one flaw, it would be the price. It's not exactly an affordable purchase, but it does go on sale occasionally, making it a more reasonable buy. And the large size makes it a decent value overall.
TipFor fellow heavy-handed users like me, I'd recommend using this as a morning toner with a cotton pad and then as an evening toner, rather than trying to apply it directly. It's a great gentle, versatile first step in your routine.

It definitely has more nourishment than budget-friendly toners!👍🏻 Spreadability: The lightweight formula spreads like skin toner, leaving a moisturized feel even after applying essence!👍🏻
ConsThe only downside would be the price! Price: It's more expensive compared to budget-friendly toners, but it's worth the money! I'll likely stick with this product from now on!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
TipYou can get it for around 25,000 won when it's on sale!

It was watery and felt more like a toner. Light!
ConsSince there are no downsides, please don't insist on writing more than 20 characters.
TipIt's better to decant it into a small mist bottle and use it that way. Recommend using it after cleansing and before applying moisturizer.

It's a product I always repurchase. It's good for light application. It doesn't cause any skin troubles and seems to be quite moisturizing.
ConsMy skin type is dry. It's not dramatically moisturizing and the moisture doesn't last deep down for a long time, but it's good for light application.

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.ProsThis is a well-balanced, lightly moisturizing water essence. The herbal scent was pleasant to me. The product has a cooling effect, which helps soothe heated skin in the summer. After several applications, a subtle moisturizing layer can be felt. It has a very lightweight, slightly oily moisturizing feel. Although I have dry skin, I think it would work well for oily skin types too. The finish has decent hydration, but the lightweight water-based formula means anyone can use it. I haven't repurchased it yet since I don't currently have a water essence in my skincare routine, but I'll likely buy this one again when I do need a water essence.
ConsThe glass bottle is a bit inconvenient to use. And while it's good, it's not an exceptionally unique water essence, yet the price is a bit high for what it is.
TipPatting it in with your palms several times is good, but the true value of this product is revealed when you apply it with a sponge or cotton pad. It effectively quenches dehydration, cools the skin, and refines the complexion all at once.

It absorbs well and feels refreshing, so I liked applying it lightly in the summer and using it as a mid-step moisturizer in the winter, supplementing with another cream for extra hydration. I've repurchased it and use it frequently!
ConsThe water-based formula is both a strength and a weakness, in my opinion. But I didn't find any other real downsides.

The amount is generous, so it lasts a long time.
ConsThere's really nothing disappointing, but the container is heavy and inconvenient to use, so I purchased a refill container from the Daiso store and decanted it.
TipConsider getting a refill container!
