It absorbs well and leaves my skin feeling hydrated.
ConsWhile it feels moisturizing when applied, I found the rich texture a bit overwhelming. It absorbs slowly, making my skin feel suffocated.
TipIt might work well as a final step in your skincare routine, applied very thinly to create a protective layer on the skin.

Firstly, the packaging is so pretty that I can't help but reach for it often. Despite my skin usually turning red and itchy at the slightest irritation, I've never experienced that with this product. I've been using another brand's hydrating soothing cream, but this one is good enough to make me switch. The texture is a slightly thick gel-cream. Interestingly, after patting it in, it leaves a silky finish which I found quite fascinating. Above all, when I apply a thin layer before makeup and then put on cushion foundation, it doesn't pill and the makeup adheres beautifully. I highly recommend this as a great base for makeup!
ConsCompared to other soothing ampoules or creams, it didn't have a dramatic calming effect. It's good as a nighttime cream to lock in moisture, but it fell a bit short for soothing purposes. Also, because of its silky finish, it can sometimes feel a bit heavy. I think it would be better if it had a more refreshing feel.
TipFor those with sensitive, acne-prone skin, when applying this cream, absolutely do not apply it thickly. Instead, apply it so thinly that it's barely noticeable.

The texture wasn't sticky and felt lightweight, which I loved. It absorbed quickly and wasn't overly rich, making it perfect for combination dehydrated skin like mine during winter. I'm sensitive to fragrances, but this had just a hint of a fresh scent that dissipated quickly, allowing for comfortable use. It's not completely oil-free, so I think it would suit those with dry skin too. The color is a very subtle light green with a gel-like consistency.
ConsAs someone with combination dehydrated skin, I felt it was a bit too rich after application. It wasn't exactly greasy, but it felt slightly sticky and a bit heavy on my skin. Maybe it's because of the gel texture... Personally, I don't like that heavy feeling, so I probably wouldn't purchase it.
TipDue to the heavy feeling, after the first use, I started mixing a tiny amount with my usual cream (Laneige Phyto-Alexin Soothing Moisturizer), half and half, for about a week. This made it more comfortable to use. It might work well when mixed with a product that already suits your skin.

It gives me the feeling that my skin is going to get healthier. The texture is somewhere between fluid and rich, which makes it so pleasant to apply. It glides on smoothly and provides excellent hydration. I have dry skin, and usually in winter, using just one cream leaves my skin feeling tight. But with this product, even using it alone, there's no tightness. I applied it right after cleansing, without even using toner, and it felt amazing. After about a week of use, my skin seems to have received so much hydration that it's become slightly more translucent! I definitely plan to repurchase after I finish this one. For those with oily skin, I'd recommend using just a small amount.
ConsOne downside is that it doesn't come with a spatula, which could be unhygienic (though this might have just been missing from my product). It would be nice if it was included. As for the texture, while it's great for hydration, it can feel a bit heavy at first. However, once it absorbs, there's no stickiness or heaviness left. There are hardly any drawbacks to this product.
TipWhen applying makeup, use just a tiny amount before your base makeup and it works wonders! But remember, you really need to use only a small amount! If you apply too much, it can cause pilling.

The 'fragrance-free' aspect was what I loved most! It's similar to (almost identical to) Se*phil body emulsion in being unscented, which I really appreciated. Seeing centella asiatica extract at the top of the ingredient list, it's clear they focused on 'soothing' properties. After applying, the redness of my blemishes noticeably faded by the next day. While I couldn't really gauge its effectiveness on facial acne during The Hwahae Testers trial period (as it coincided with my cycle), it worked wonders on my chest acne. The next day, the redness was completely gone, leaving only slight traces of what felt like small bumps. The cream itself felt high-density. I'm usually heavy-handed with application, so when I applied a generous amount, I woke up to white, pus-filled blemishes the next day. So, the following day, I adjusted the amount and found that even a small amount was sufficient to feel adequately moisturized and hydrated. Since a little goes a long way, I think this product will last quite a while! Apart from the day I over-applied, I didn't experience any breakouts. There was no itching or burning sensation. Even when a tiny bit got into my eyes, it didn't hurt, which suggests it's indeed a gentle cream. I think even those with super sensitive skin could easily use this product.
ConsIt's slightly oily and absolutely cannot be used in the morning. If applied in the morning, it would make my face too greasy. If you wear makeup, I think it would cause pilling after just a short while. Also, the texture feels a bit sticky, so if you apply too much, it feels heavy and attracts dust to your face.
TipUse an appropriate amount! Since it's in a jar, dust can easily get in, so open and close it quickly! You can definitely see results on chest and back acne!

Rather than feeling like the richness is completely absorbed, it's more like a protective layer forms on the skin. This might feel a bit heavy for some, depending on personal preference. However, after about 5 minutes, it does absorb! While I don't have super sensitive skin, I tend to break out quickly if a product doesn't suit me. Thanks to the Centella Asiatica ingredient, which works well for my skin, I didn't experience any blemishes. Overall, it feels like a gentle hydrating cream that works hard for your skin!
ConsThe rich layer that forms might feel heavy depending on your skin type, so I wouldn't recommend it for oily skin! It might not be enough on its own for extremely dry skin either. Even with my combination dehydrated skin, I woke up feeling some deep dryness.
TipLike others have suggested, try mixing it with a facial oil or applying a second layer after the first one has absorbed for better hydration!
