Jeju Dampalsu First Soothing Essence

No Whitening Effect

Feels Harsh on Skin

Causes Allergic Reactions

Not Effective for Wrinkle Reduction

Causes Itching

Pleasant Scent

Easily Absorbed

Easy to Apply

Subtle Scent

Refreshing

Not Sticky

Hydrating

I apply it after cleansing in the morning and evening!

Even with my oily skin, it doesn't cause any blemishes, which suggests the product is gentle and suits me well.

It's super hydrating!! I've been using it morning and night, and I love that it doesn't cause any blemishes.

제주 담팔수 퍼스트 수딩 에센스

It's even better when used together with the mist
If you apply it, let it absorb, and repeat this process three times, it completely solves the skin's moisture needs!

The volume is a bit disappointing🥲 I want to use it sparingly, but my skin absorbs it so quickly that I find myself applying it three times without realizing it. I'll need to stock up for events!

It has a nice glide and excellent absorption
It was great to use it refreshingly without any stickiness in the summer
The scent is not too strong either

In the summer, applying it lightly and layering a cream on top seems to create a nice, not-too-heavy combination!

⛔️Product Ingredients
There are more allergenic ingredients than expected, which is unfortunate. Especially due to the alcohol content, the cream dries out quickly if I don't apply a thick layer on top, so it might be good for summer but I'm not sure about winter🥲

Hwahae Trial Reviewer Review✏️
@Skin Type: As I entered my mid-20s, my skin has transitioned from combination to sensitive and dry. I occasionally get blackheads and small pimples.

✔️Spreadability and Absorption 5/5
It applied lightly and moisturized well. It absorbed better than expected, leaving a supple feeling! Although it's a water-based formula, it seemed to form a protective layer on the skin and addressed dryness.

✔️Fragrance 4/5
A natural, herbal scent? It's a refreshing fragrance, but not overpowering, so there shouldn't be strong likes or dislikes. I just wished for a more natural scent, so I deducted 1 point:)

✔️Effectiveness 4/5
I happened to have some skin troubles when using it, but my skin texture definitely improved! However, since it contains shea butter, the calming effect on any emerging blemishes wasn't as noticeable, which was a bit disappointing.

Since my skin is so dry and sensitive, I only focused on hydration and neglected whitening, so I developed some dark spots. I've been using a vitamin C whitening ampoule and mixing it with the essence, and I'm really satisfied with the whitening effects. The vitamin ampoule definitely helped, but the essence is also a functional product for whitening and wrinkles, so I've been using a little bit of both.

Since this is a product I really liked, I want to try out all the products in this line, and if you make such good products with a green rating, I think I'll have even more trust in your brand.

This review is a Hwahae Trial Reviewer review.
I have very dry and sensitive skin, so I was never really satisfied with any essence I used, but this product was one that I finally liked in a long time.

The fragrance is a bit disappointing. While it is a signature scent, I found it to have a slightly sour note for me.

And the ingredients are a letdown. There were as many as 4 caution ingredients, and because of that, my skin felt a bit itchy after applying it. 🥲🥲 It seems it just didn't agree with my skin.

The delivery was incredibly fast... After being selected as a Hwahae Trial Reviewer, it arrived within 3 days, and I was amazed at how quick the shipping was...!

The watery texture applied well, and although it felt a bit tacky, it absorbed quickly and felt comfortable.

For dry skin, it may lack enough moisture for daily use. You'll likely need to apply a cream afterwards. It should work well for other skin types. One downside is that it contains some allergy-causing ingredients, which is a bit disappointing since I tend to use fragrance-free products well.

I liked that the essence was slightly watery. It doesn't feel oily and seems like a lightweight formula that can be applied easily in the summer.

I felt it was slightly lacking in moisture, so I soaked some cotton pads with the essence and facial oil, pressed them onto my forehead and cheeks, and it looked great and felt good. It might be difficult to do this in the height of summer, but I'll try to use it sparingly.

The volume is disappointing compared to the price. It's a bit of a letdown.

The product was packaged in an eco-friendly way, which I was pleased to receive.
When applying for the event, I looked at the ingredients and effects of the cosmetics that would be good for my skin, and so far I haven't experienced any irritation. Usually my skin gets worse before I start using a new product, but this time it went through the transition without any issues, so I think this is a good fit for my skin.

The scent reminds me of citrus, possibly because the product name contains 'Jeju'. It's a subtle, natural citrus scent, not artificial. Even those who dislike scented cosmetics should be able to use this comfortably.

The texture is like a runny liquid. Spraying it on the back of my hand makes it easy to apply, and it doesn't drip when applied.

There was no irritation. Products labeled as 'soothing' are usually non-irritating for me and don't make my skin worse.

The most important factors for me are moisture and preventing tightness. Even though it's lightweight, it hasn't made my skin feel dry. I use it as a skin, serum, essence, and sunscreen, and in the summer my skin doesn't get overly oily in the afternoons after using this. It absorbs quickly and seems effective against tightness.

👍 Lightweight, runny texture
👍 Moisturizing, soothing effects
👍 Non-irritating
👍 Good for summer use

Storing it in the refrigerator and applying it chilled can help further soothe any heat or sensitivity.

When I first used it, my face felt a bit irritated. However, it was fine on subsequent uses. I still recommend doing a patch test before using it, just to be safe.

The texture is smooth and spreadable, with an initial slight stickiness that is quickly absorbed, leaving a nice finish.
The formula is suitable for my combination skin, providing sufficient hydration with just one application.
I enjoyed the woody scent, which is my personal preference.

🥕My T-zone and the mask area have been quite dry lately, and the moisture level from one application wasn't enough to cover the dry parts. If you have dry skin, using a lotion or cream in addition would be a good idea.

💁This is just my personal opinion, but the cap is transparent, so it's hard to see without my glasses on. I'm always worried I'll lose it. Ugh.

💕Because of the mask, I was a mess with sensitivity and insomnia, but my skin troubles have calmed down a lot.
💕The packaging is eco-friendly and neat!! I think it would be a good gift for someone.
💕It says it has a non-sticky, refreshing texture, and at first, I thought it felt a bit sticky, but after patting it a few times, it absorbed cleanly. It seems to have great absorption power.
💕The scent is like mugwort or rosemary, that kind of herbal fragrance. But it doesn't have an artificial feel, which I liked.
💕Normally, serums or essences come in a dropper format, but this one has a pump, so the right amount comes out at once, which is more hygienic and better.

If you use the essence and cream together, you won't experience dryness!

- It was a bit drying for me ㅠㅠ
- The scent is quite unusual (a greenish scent...?)

I have acne-prone skin
- The moment I applied it, I felt a refreshing sensation! 👍👍
- It has excellent absorption! It gets absorbed into the skin in just a few minutes after application.
- I didn't feel any skin irritation! This product contains 20 irritant ingredients and allergen ingredients, so I was worried it might irritate my skin, but it was an unnecessary concern! It doesn't irritate the skin at all 🤗

It would be even better if it could be applied cool. The nice fragrance makes me want to apply it often.

Because I have sensitive skin, there was a slight stinging sensation when I first applied it. I wonder if it's because of the acidic components of the citrus? The limonene ingredient seems to cause a slight stinging for me. But there were no breakouts, and after a few days, my skin seemed to adapt, and it no longer stings.
It might be a bit too refreshing and light for winter, so I'll need to make sure to apply additional moisturizing creams and the like.

First of all, the citrus aroma that spreads when you squeeze it is so nice. While applying, the pleasant fragrance makes me feel good. The texture is light and absorbs well. At first, it felt a bit sticky, but it absorbed quickly, and the consistency is not too watery or thick - it's just perfect for using in the summer.
Even though I have very sensitive skin, there were no breakouts or troubles. And the packaging is great. It's simple, so it doesn't ruin the atmosphere wherever I put it.
The amount that comes out with one pump is just right for applying on the face.
