It was great to carry around as it is small and portable, perfect for travel 2. Even those sensitive to scents can use it comfortably 3. I did not feel any itchiness or irritation when applying it 4. The smooth application suggests less skin irritation 5. The oil-water balance is around 60:40 6. There was no oiliness, which was nice (good for light use) 7. There was no stickiness after application, which was great 8. Fine wrinkles and lines have definitely disappeared (100% repurchase rate)
Cons1. It seems like it will run out quickly (the volume is a bit disappointing considering the price) 2. There is one ingredient that is not good for oily skin 3. It's good for preventing wrinkles, but not recommended for those who already have deep wrinkles

It wasn't sticky at all, and I could just swipe it on dry areas whenever I needed it, which was really easy. It's more like a moisturizing balm than a pure hydrating product, and the texture isn't too firm or too soft, so it applies smoothly. It was great for quickly applying around my eyes or on my neck when I didn't feel like using an eye cream or neck cream.
ConsWhen applying a cream as the final step, I felt like it needed a bit more time to fully absorb.

ConsIt may be a bit burdensome in terms of price, but since it's not a product that gets used up quickly, I think it's still worth it
TipIt doesn't smear if applied before makeup, so you can apply it carefully around the eyes and then do your makeup

It's definitely convenient to carry around, so I find myself reaching for it often. Even without a mirror, I can easily swipe it on anytime, which is so convenient. My skin feels smoother and less dry, without any tightness.
ConsAfter just a few days of using it, I didn't see any dramatic reduction in my wrinkles, haha. But by applying it regularly, I never feel dry, and the moisturized feeling alone puts me in a good mood.

Stick: The stick format is certainly convenient. After washing your face, you can just swipe it on and leave it by the bedside to use again before bed. It's nice to have it within reach. 2. Application: As I've only used stick sunscreens before, I was worried it might be too oily, but it wasn't as much as I expected. It's not a heavy, thick formula either. I applied it to areas prone to wrinkles like the corners of my eyes, around my nose and mouth, and my forehead, and it was nicely moisturizing without feeling tight. 3. Volume: I've only used it for 2 weeks so far, but it seems like it will last quite a long time.
ConsI'm also starting to prepare for wrinkles now, but I think my parents would like it even more.

I have honestly and thoroughly used this product for 1 week. ✔️ First of all, the portability is great! It fits perfectly in my pouch or pocket when I go out. ✔️ It's easy to open the lid and apply anywhere. It leaves a glossy finish when applied, so I ended up applying it frequently. ✔️ It's a certified product with no harmful ingredients and has passed skin irritation tests! ✔️ It feels plump and moisturized, not too sticky, so it was great to use frequently. ✔️ It's in a solid form! The solid form doesn't melt or become too soft, which I liked. ✔️ As it's a multi-balm specialized for wrinkle improvement, it's great to apply on areas with a lot of wrinkles like the eye area, neck, and laugh lines. ✔️ No stickiness or heaviness! ✔️ On tiring days, this one product is all you need!
Cons✔️ Nothing improves instantly, it seems important to develop a consistent habit of applying this product.
Tip✔️ The scent is close to unscented, but when I applied it and wore a mask, I noticed a slight glue-like scent~ But it wasn't uncomfortable at all. ✔️ My parents also tried this product and another famous multi-balm, alternating between the two for 3 days each. They said this product seemed more effective for wrinkle improvement.

It would be great to use this product in the dry winter season
ConsThe quantity is a bit disappointing considering the price ☹️ It would be better if it were a little more affordable
TipIt works better when applied after cleansing rather than before makeup It is useful for managing neck wrinkles

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.ProsThe product seems to have great portability with its compact size that fits comfortably in one hand. I had to bring it with me when I was recently hospitalized, and it was more than enough on its own. The best thing about it is the smooth application. Some stick products can feel a bit stiff and rigid when applied, but this one glides on smoothly and melts naturally with body heat, giving a wonderfully soft and comfortable feel. Secondly, the luminosity is really beautiful. Some products can look overly oily and greasy, but this one has a lovely, radiant glow without feeling heavy. When rolling it on, it's incredibly smooth. I've applied it to my face and even my lips, and it feels so soft and silky. Not only do I love it, but I also tried it on a child who had a slight fever and flushed cheeks. It gave their face a natural, dewy glow. I highly recommend this product!
ConsThere doesn't seem to be any major downsides, but if I had to pick one, it would be that the amount might be a bit small. It feels like it might not be enough to really slather on.

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🔹️ I really liked that the stick-type product doesn't get on my hands and is easy to apply! 🔹️ Another great advantage of the stick form is its portability! I can carry it around and easily take it out to apply anytime. 🔹️ Even though it's a stick, it's not soft but firm, so the application is great. 🔹️ The scent is not too overpowering, but subtle, which I liked.
Cons🔸️ As a product that claims to provide elasticity and radiance, it really lacks moisture. It's just full of oil, so I wouldn't recommend it for oily skin types. 🔸️ The firm stick form makes it a bit limited in terms of applying all over the face. 🔸️ Considering the actual effects, the price range is a bit on the higher side in my opinion. But this could be because I've only used it for 2 weeks, so my opinion might change later.

Slight laugh lines, forehead wrinkles, and neck wrinkles. This stick-type wrinkle care cosmetic is a very popular and convenient item. To focus on wrinkle improvement, I applied it to the laugh lines, forehead, and eye area before bed. The test period was about a week!!! ✅ Wrinkles, Elasticity The most important part is the wrinkles.!!! I applied it before bed and the wrinkles definitely did not deepen further. I applied it to the laugh lines, eye area, and forehead, and even though the wrinkles had been deepening due to pillow pressure, they did not deepen further.!!! ✅ Texture The stick form is quite firm, but it's not sticky or stiff when applied. The application is quite smooth. ✅ Oiliness When applied, the texture is definitely thicker than serums or other creams. There is some oiliness, so it seems fine to leave it on overnight for the wrinkles.^^ ✅ Radiance The oiliness may contribute to a radiant effect, but since I only applied it to the wrinkle areas and not my whole face, the radiance is not very noticeable, only in the areas where it was applied. ✅ Fragrance The fragrance is a subtle floral scent, not overpowering and quite pleasant. ✅ Longevity When applied at night, it's not overly drying in the morning. There is some oiliness when applied, but it absorbs well and leaves an appropriate amount behind over time. 🎖Overall: This wrinkle-care stick is quite good. The absorption, application, and wrinkle improvement effects are decent. Since it's for wrinkles and elasticity, the formula seems quite concentrated. After using it for only a week, the effects may improve further with continued use. The 10g size means it should be used alongside other products, and it's best to apply it only to the wrinkle areas.
Cons➡️The 10g size is quite small, so it would likely be used up quickly if applied to larger areas like the neck.😂A slightly larger size would be better. ➡️It needs to be used alongside other cosmetics. The concentrated formula means it can't cover the entire face, so it should be used in conjunction with essences or basic skincare products for the wrinkle areas. Compared to other brand's stick products, there aren't any major downsides to this one.
TipI apply the following routine: 1. Apply toner 2. Apply the Leaders stick 3. Apply essence 4. As a final step, apply the stick one more time 🎖By applying a generous amount of the stick before bed, it maximizes the effects overnight. In the morning, my skin is not dry and the wrinkle improvement is good.👍
