There is a slight fragrance, so opinions may be divided. The texture is heavier than a typical watery serum. Accordingly, the oiliness is a bit higher, but it spreads well and absorbs nicely, leaving a supple, plump feeling on the skin. As an anti-aging product, it may be heavier than a hydrating and soothing line, but it is suitable for use during seasonal changes or in the winter.
ConsAs an anti-aging line, the price range is on the higher side, but the usage experience is good.

It's not heavy, and when applied, it seems to absorb well. It's not a moisturizer, so I can't use it alone, but if I apply it frequently, the effects seem decent. I used it for about two weeks in the summer, and there was no irritation. When I woke up, my skin from the previous day seemed well-soothed and refreshed.
ConsMaybe it's because it was a sample, but even after seeing other reviews of the actual product, the amount seems lacking.

It's lightweight, absorbs well, and feels refreshing. This product helps quench that annoying thirst caused by quick drying. Surprisingly, there's not a hint of greasiness... It absorbs mildly yet effectively! The Zero-id didn't solve my quick drying issue, but this one does. However, there may be a 2% downside in that it lacks the moisturizing feel unique to cosmetics. Instead of that deceptive moisturizing feel where the surface is damp but the moisture evaporates quickly, leaving only a greasy residue, this is a hundred times better. So I mainly use this in the summer and switch to something else in the fall. Using this product has helped my skin regain its stability. After using it for a few months, my skin texture also improves. It's a feeling only those who've tried it can understand - it's refreshing and revitalizes the skin texture. It makes my skin feel healthier. Thank you for saving my skin from becoming a desert!
ConsNo matter how much I apply, there's just no moisturizing feel to it...But since no product is perfect, I can be satisfied even if it's 2% lacking.

It's much more fluid than expected, absorbing like water. ● There is a bit too much oil content, so you'll need to use it sparingly. However, it's not an overly greasy, oily product! It's a somewhat dense, moisturizing product.
Cons● If not for the scent, this would have been a 5-star product, but the scent makes it a 2-star for me. The sole downside is that the scent is so unbearably horrible that I can't bear to use it and had to throw it away. I bought this from the Huxley website when it was near its expiration date, and when I first used it, it spurted out like a water gun! And the scent is just so overwhelmingly pungent that I immediately thought it had gone bad or spoiled. But since it's a fermented product and still has a few months left on the expiration, I tried using it little by little, and it seems fine. However, there are reviews saying the scent is good, which is just baffling to me... Is this a matter of personal preference? The stench is just so overpowering, I even tried sniffing it directly to see if it had gone bad, and it made me want to retch... I'm not exaggerating. I generally don't like artificial fragrances and prefer natural scents, and most products with polarizing scents have been fine for me. But this is just on another level, and I simply couldn't use it despite trying to get used to it. I had to throw it away.

I have very dry skin, and last summer when it was so hot, I only applied the skin, essence, and sunscreen in 3 steps before makeup, and it still held up. Of course, I did a full skincare routine at night. If I didn't, my skin wouldn't be able to withstand the day. I'd recommend this to those with dry and dehydrated skin.
ConsIf the fermented essence doesn't agree with you, you may want to reconsider using it. It also has a musty fermented scent. I find myself holding my breath briefly every time I use it. If you're sensitive to smells, it may be difficult to tolerate.

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.Pros- The spreadability and absorbency were quite good. - While the price is a bit high, it's a well-known product that's been getting good reviews~
Cons- I bought this based on a recommendation, but it doesn't seem to suit my skin, which is really upsetting. I'm not sure which ingredient doesn't agree with me, but my skin has become red, irritated, and my whole face is a mess 😢 I've only used it a few times, but it's turned out this way, which is really puzzling. This was the only new product I've tried. For now, I'm going to stop using this product. I really hope those with sensitive skin will be very careful. I have a lot of product left, and I'm not sure what to do with it 😥

As soon as I apply it, it gets absorbed right away. It provides good moisture while leaving a clean finish, so just using a toner and serum is enough!
ConsI'm not sure if the pump is defective or if this is normal, but the product sometimes comes out too strongly and splatters.
TipApplying it in several thin layers seems to provide good and lasting hydration.

It's not that I only used this one because I liked it, but I bought it and used it a little at first, but I didn't feel much appeal, so I left it alone. Since it was expensive, I tried to use it diligently because I didn't want to throw it away. It was somewhat effective in improving dry skin, and it was absorbed well without leaving a greasy feeling. The scent was also not too disturbing.
ConsIt's on the expensive side. Since there are many similar cosmetics that are cheaper but have similar effects, I don't plan to repurchase it.
TipYou don't necessarily have to use the Huxley toner and cream together. They are all decent products on their own, but I didn't feel they had a particularly good synergy.

Moisture Balance This product has better moisture balance than most lotions. Based on my personal experience, the perfect ratio of moisture to oil is around 7:3, which is sufficient for finishing in the summer, and only requires adding one cream in the winter. 2. Spreadability The application experience is the core identity of this product. It spreads very smoothly and absorbs well, so one pump is enough to cover the entire face. Since the usage amount is not high, it can be used for a long time, making it economical. 3. Usable to the End Among non-airless containers with pumps, this is the first time I've experienced one that comes out cleanly until the very end. Of course, it can't be as perfectly clean as an airless container, but with its fluid formula, by tilting the container and using the pump, you can draw it out cleanly until the end. 4. Vegan Certification This is a personal preference criterion for me.
Cons1. Adaptation Period Needed Although I generally don't react well to cosmetics, there were times when my face would flush when using the first bottle. While it's not accurate to say I don't suit fermented products, this product seemed to require a bit of an adaptation period. 2. Price The regular price of 43,000 won for 30ml can be burdensome for the initial purchase. Since it seems difficult to get samples, there may be a high entry barrier.
Tip- I consider this a cost-effective cosmetic. It has good moisture balance, covers functionality, and the usage amount is not high, so the initial purchase may be burdensome, but the satisfaction level during use is high. It's often on sale with significant discounts on the official website or at Olive Young, so it's worth considering. - If you have sensitive skin that often reacts to cosmetics, you'll need to think it through carefully. Sometimes, when my condition is poor, I can feel a stinging sensation.
