It applies smoothly and didn't seem to cause any blemishes.
ConsI chose this product because it claimed to have minimal oiliness, which I prefer. However, I'm a bit disappointed that it leaves a rich feeling on my skin until it's completely absorbed.

It has a twist-lock mechanism to prevent leaks! Texture: True to its name 'Essence in Emulsion', the texture is a perfect blend of essence and emulsion. It applies smoothly and absorbs quickly. They call it 'matte but moisturized', but to me it feels like it tightens the skin while keeping it hydrated underneath. My skin feels firmer! Benefits: It's said to be effective for brightening and improving wrinkles. Scent: It's fragrance-free, which I absolutely love!
ConsReview: While it's recommended for combination dehydrated skin, as someone with very dry skin, I need to layer a cream on top. However, it applies smoothly and helps with deep dryness, so I find myself reaching for it often!
TipThe locking cap helps keep air out!

Moreover, with newly added whitening and anti-wrinkle benefits, it feels like I've found a functional essence that can be used safely even on sensitive, atopy-prone skin.
ConsThere might be a slight irritation when applied to atopic dermatitis flare-ups with redness, but it gradually calms down.

You need to pat it in a bit for absorption, but that's common for all products. It's great for those with sensitive and oily skin types.
ConsIn terms of hydration, I'd give it 3 to 4 stars out of 5. Other than that, I can't think of any particular drawbacks at the moment.
TipI recommend spraying a bit of facial mist before applying the product.

This product absorbs beautifully, making it perfect for summer use.
ConsThere weren't really any downsides. If I had to nitpick, I'd say the amount is a bit small. It would be great if they offered a larger size option.
TipI applied it right after cleansing, without using any cream, and there was no deep dryness. It's gentle on the skin, which I really appreciate.

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 review from The Hwahae Testers Texture: As someone with extremely oily skin, I was hesitant about the product name, thinking it might be too greasy. However, it's surprisingly light and fresh, with minimal oiliness. I love how it applies smoothly and absorbs quickly. The lightweight formula is really appealing. Feel: Initially, it feels very hydrating, and it absorbs rapidly. It leaves my skin feeling deeply moisturized yet matte. I'm a fan of this texture, so I'll likely continue using it. Blemishes: I haven't experienced any breakouts since I started using this. Given that my skin tends to react with blemishes to incompatible products, I'm satisfied just by the fact that it hasn't caused any issues. Quantity: It's larger than I expected. Looks like it'll last for quite a while.
ConsWhile I didn't notice it myself, those with dry skin might experience some deep dryness if using this product alone. Since it's a lightweight product, it might be best used in combination with other skincare items. Considering its rather ordinary performance, the price point seems a bit high.
TipWhile it doesn't produce any dramatically visible effects, it feels like it provides hydration with a fresh formula. It's a solid, easy-to-use product. I think it'll be particularly good for use during the summer months.

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 review from The Hwahae Testers: Skin type: Dry, Sensitive ✔️Application (Texture) True to its name 'Essence in Emulsion', it has a very fluid texture. As someone who usually prefers gel-cream moisturizers, I liked that it wasn't too thick. It applies very smoothly and feels hydrating! ✔️Absorption & Moisturizing Due to its light consistency, it absorbs quickly! Perhaps because of this, I didn't feel it was intensely moisturizing, but rather suitable for a fresh summer moisturizer! For those with dry skin like me, you'll need to layer a moisturizer on top to maintain that hydrated feeling! ✔️Recommended Skin Types I'd recommend this for mild dry skin or combination dehydrated skin types! Using it as toner+emulsion or essence+emulsion should provide sufficient hydration! For those with very dry skin even in summer, add an extra layer of moisturizer on top! (+ The ingredients are gentle, so those with super sensitive skin can use it with peace of mind!) ✔️Price & Quantity I found it quite pricey - nearly $40 for 150ml. However, given the gentle ingredients, if it works well for your skin with consistent use, I would consider repurchasing.
ConsWhen I first used it, my skin felt a bit tingly. Especially around the philtrum area, it was slightly uncomfortable. Apparently, this can happen when first using natural cosmetics...! I think my skin felt this way because it was too dry! It got better as I continued using it!
TipSince my skin tends to get hot, I keep it in the refrigerator before use. When it touches my skin, it feels incredibly cool and calming, which makes the application experience even better.

I've been using it for about a week. My skin type is combination - oily T-zone and dry cheeks, with some blemishes on my forehead and cheeks. The application is incredibly hydrating and lightweight. It feels so moisturizing that I wondered if I was applying it correctly! Initially, I thought it might be a bit greasy, but shortly after application, it sets to a nice, firm finish. There's no oily residue at all, leaving my skin feeling perfectly matte. In short: hydrating when applied, matte after it sets. As for the scent, it's practically fragrance-free. You'd have to really put your nose to it to detect the faintest hint of a typical emulsion smell. This makes it suitable for those sensitive to fragrances. What I loved about it: Personally, I'm a fan of emulsions that apply moistly but finish matte, so I really enjoyed the texture. Also, when I use this emulsion before bed, I wake up with noticeably softer, calmer skin. It's great for both morning and night routines, and its light, hydrating formula is perfect for hot weather!
ConsThere's not much to criticize, but if I had to point out something, it might not be moisturizing enough for very dry winter skin, especially for those with dry skin types. If you're looking for intense hydration, you might find this product a bit lacking. However, its light and fresh application makes it ideal for the current weather, and it's perfect for daily use without any burden.

As long as products aren't expired, I rarely get blemishes from most creams or emulsions. This product seems to be a combination of essence and emulsion, with a strong focus on hydration. The texture is thinner than most emulsions. It absorbs well, so one or two pumps are enough for application. The best part was that it felt genuinely moisturizing, and with its good ingredients, I could use it with peace of mind.
ConsI'm a bit disappointed with its lasting power. Using this product alone after toner feels insufficient. Maybe it's because I have dry skin, but I feel I need to apply a cream on top for longer-lasting hydration. Given its thin, water-rich formula, I couldn't expect too much in terms of longevity, but it's a shame that I need to reapply it multiple times.
TipI think it's also great to apply this to dry areas instead of using a mist!

(Texture and Features) It's a white emulsion with a standard texture. Being an 'essence-in-emulsion', I expected it to be quite runny, but it actually has a nice consistency that applies smoothly. I love the pump bottle - two pumps give you plenty of product to work with. (Application) The application is quite nice. After two pumps, I simply rubbed it between my palms and patted it onto my face. It spread evenly without any excess product sitting on the skin. (Absorption) When applied right after toner, it feels a bit watery and takes longer to absorb, probably due to the emulsion's nature. However, when I applied it after my skin had fully absorbed the toner, it sank in quickly after a bit of gentle tapping, leaving my skin feeling hydrated. (Moisture Balance) I have combination dehydrated skin that tends to feel tight. At first, I was impressed by how hydrating it felt. After a while, I did experience some slight tightness, so I applied a second layer. This seemed to improve absorption, and my skin felt softer the next morning when cleansing. I usually finish with a moisturizer, but to test this product alone, I just reapplied it. It wasn't too rich and provided decent hydration. (Blemishes) I didn't experience any irritation. However, as my skin isn't particularly sensitive, those with super sensitive skin might want to patch test first.
ConsThere's nothing particularly disappointing, but being an emulsion, even with the added essence, it didn't completely balance my skin's oil and moisture levels on its own. I still experienced some tightness that would require following up with a moisturizer.
TipFor best results, apply the emulsion after your toner has fully absorbed, then layer it again after the first application has sunk in for extra hydration.
