Pros
The product had a nice, smooth application and pleasant scent, likely due to the clean ingredients.
Cons
It seemed to have less oil and moisture than expected, so it felt like it didn't last as long.

Pros
🌟This product is famous for its cleansing water and sheet masks, so as soon as I received the product, I diligently applied the pack to cotton pads every evening! As I have oily skin and dislike excess sebum, I liked that the Primera essence spreads on smoothly and moisturizes, while finishing with a refreshing feel!! So I was able to use it conveniently not only in the evening, but also before makeup in the morning. 🌟The most surprising thing about using the Primera essence was that it was able to gently care for my dead skin without any irritation. Previously, I thought dead skin care meant roughly scrubbing, but I was so happy that I could manage my dead skin softly while also providing moisture. As a result, my skin became much smoother and more hydrated. 🌟On the other hand, as I have extremely sensitive skin, I pay close attention to the ingredients. But I was able to use this product without any trouble or breakouts, so I plan to continue using it! The fragrance did not bother me, and it was absorbed well into my sensitive skin, so I could confidently confirm that the ingredients are excellent.
Cons
🌧 The product was larger and heavier than expected, so the portability was disappointing...I wanted a product I could carry around anywhere. 🌧 It was a shame that this product alone was not enough to complete my moisturizing skincare routine. Of course, it provides hydration, but my skin quickly became dry and powdery again, and as the product has no sebum, it was not suitable to use alone for night care. However, if I use this product for a couple of cleansing steps and then apply a moisturizing cream or lotion, I can perfectly balance the oil and moisture. It's perfect as the first step, being gentle and soothing.

Pros
Using the Vintage Essence alone wouldn't provide enough hydration, and the price is quite high, so I didn't dare use it alone. 😭 I thought the Primera Organience Watery Essence would also provide good hydration if used the same way, so for the first 3 days I used it instead of the Vintage Essence. It provided plenty of moisture, but I didn't feel any oiliness at all. 🥺 So I changed my method and took out an unused cotton pad to use it like a toner. This seems to work well for me. It quickly provides moisture while gently exfoliating and refining the skin, helping the subsequent products absorb better. I tried soaking the cotton pad in the essence and doing a mask, like some others, but the dryness in the areas I didn't do it was too severe, so I only did it once. 😅 After about 3 days of using this new method, my skin tone looked a bit brighter, and I could see some spots that were usually not very noticeable. I was quite surprised at first, but it seems the subsequent products were able to work more effectively thanks to the essence. The name really fits the product well. 👍 It's a bit dark, but the overall brightening effect is good. 😁 This product is very hydrating, so I think it works better as a first essence, used like a toner, rather than just for hydration as a dry-skinned person. My boyfriend, who has oily skin, came over and was satisfied using it too. Even in the winter, when he usually just uses a pore-minimizing lotion, the essence provided the moisture he was lacking without any stickiness, so he was quite satisfied. I plan to repurchase this once I finish the bottle, but I don't think I could use it as a replacement for the Vintage Essence. 🤨 👍 No fragrance 👍 Immediate hydration 👍 Non-irritating exfoliation 👍 Works great as a toning essence 👍 Enhances the function of subsequent products
Cons
🥺 Provides hydration but no oily feel, making it difficult for dry skin types to use it alone 🥺 Focuses solely on the function of a first essence
Tip
Dry-skinned people may not use toners often like I do, but the Organience Watery Essence is very hydrating and has a generous amount, so it's great for thoroughly soaking the skin and refining the texture. I'm glad it didn't cause any irritation. 🤗

Pros
The Primera Organience line is a product I've been using for a long time, so I was really happy when I won it^^ I'll leave a review after using it for a week~ Moisturizing (moisture) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It's an essence, but it has a thin, watery texture like a toner. Since I have very dry skin, I usually apply toner a few times. I dab it on a cotton pad and wipe it on, then pat it in a few more times with my hands. This makes it really moisturizing and hydrating^^ Irritation ❌❌ No irritation at all~~ It seems gentle and suitable for sensitive, weak skin. I use it as a substitute for toner. You know, the 7-skin method? I like using thin, non-irritating toner products multiple times. This way, it's very moisturizing, so just finishing up with a serum or cream is enough to keep my skin hydrated^^
Cons
No oiliness It's an essence, but there's no oiliness at all Those looking for oily products might not like this.
Tip
Wipe it on like removing makeup, and apply it 3 times to fully absorb it. You may be able to skip the toner. For dry skin, you'll need to use a cream to finish. You can also use it as a toner pack. Soak a thin cotton pad and leave it on for 5-10 minutes, then remove it and apply a cream. I do the toner pack while my hair is drying. This can be even more moisturizing than just applying toner a couple times.

Pros
👌🏻 This is an honest Hwahae Trial Reviewer review. 🤎 Texture It's a complete water-like skin. There's no viscosity or slipperiness - it just glides on smoothly! The cap has just the right sized hole, so when you tap it on your palm, the right amount comes out without excess. 🤎 Moisturizing Power The texture is completely watery, but not as moisturizing as a regular skin. As the name suggests, it's very hydrating!!! Even though the lightweight texture makes it seem like it wouldn't be moisturizing, it's surprisingly hydrating. The key is that it doesn't leave an oily, rich feeling, but rather a plumping, quenching sensation. It provides a refreshing, water-like hydration that tackles dryness, but of course not as much as a richer, creamier essence. Still, I really liked the quenching, plumping sensation it gave my skin. Applying it 2-3 times works well. 🤎 Fragrance I don't like heavily fragranced skincare, so I was happy that this is fragrance-free. I couldn't detect any distinct ingredient scents either. 🤎 Ingredients The ingredients are impressively clean and minimal. It would be great as a first skin or to use as an essence, as the hydrating ingredients are top-notch. 🤎 Pore Refining & Irritation This product contains PHA, so you can get some gentle exfoliation and pore refining without needing a separate peeling gel. Personally, I found it very gentle - if you're used to using stronger acids like BHA or AHA, the effects may not be as dramatic. But my skin felt plump and smooth. 🤎 Packaging The glass bottle gives a nice, premium feel. It definitely has a higher-end vibe compared to more affordable options.
Cons
The only downside is that it doesn't have the same level of moisturizing power as richer, creamier essences. It provides hydration without any oiliness, but not quite as much moisture as some other essences I've used.
Tip
Since this product contains the chemical exfoliant PHA (gluconolactone), it's best to use it only in the evening, not in the morning.

Pros
Ingredients: I'm glad the ingredients suit me well! I've never had any trouble or irritation while using it, and it's been great for soothing. Texture: Just as it looks, the texture is like flowing water! It's easy to spread on or wipe with a cotton pad, and great for masking. Moisture: As the name suggests, the moisture is great!! It leaves my skin so soft and supple. Packaging: I was really surprised when I first saw it - the packaging is so unique and interesting, I couldn't help but show it off! The container is sturdy so there's no worry about it breaking, but it's also light so it's easy to dispense. It kind of looks like some kind of tea, haha. Soothing: With the great moisture, any redness or dryness from dehydration went away. Since the ingredients suit me well and are great for soothing, I really enjoyed using it! There was a bit of redness, but no angry bumps or pus. I felt it was even better for calming down blemishes. My dad has been using products from the same Ogallenic line for men, so I was already familiar with the brand. I have to add that the Primera peeling gel is truly amazing!
Cons
The drier ingredients might be too drying to use in the winter! The moisture is great, but some oily ingredients are also needed for dry skin.
Tip
Soaking a cotton pad with it and leaving it on like a sheet mask makes it even more moisturizing and soothing!
