Pros
I really liked the product my brother bought me. When I apply it to my face when it feels warm, it calms down well. I think I can use it without burden even when I have blemishes. It's moisturizing but not overly sticky, and it's not too thin either - it has a comfortable texture!
Cons
There's really nothing bad about it. The unique grassy scent is a bit noticeable, but it's not too strong, so it's okay.
Tip
Keep it in the fridge and use it😊

Pros
💁🏻‍♀️ The volume is a huge 300ml, making it very convenient to use. There's no excessive packaging, and the pump type makes it easy to use! 💁🏻‍♀️ No typical aloe vera gel scent. I disliked the typical gel-like scent of aloe vera, but this one has a refreshing cica scent, so there's no love-hate relationship - I just really like it. 💁🏻‍♀️ No stickiness!!⭐️ After application, there's no slipperiness or stickiness, just the right amount of moisture left behind. It's perfect to use in the morning as a soothing product before getting ready. The gel type was the last one I used from Nature..., but the stickiness and scent have all been improved, and the soothing effect is even better in this new gel. I'm so happy to have found this!😋😋 I think it'll be a godsend if you keep it in the fridge during the summer!!
Cons
There's a slight cooling effect, so it feels a tiny bit irritating! But it's not overly stimulating!!
Tip
Keep it in the fridge and use it for a refreshing massage - it's great!

Pros
The best thing about using this product was that it had a great soothing effect, and when I kept it in the refrigerator and used it, it calmed my skin down even faster, making it feel more comfortable! It also didn't have any oiliness, so I didn't have to worry about it clogging my pores or anything like that. The cooling scent was also really nice.
Cons
The only downside was that even when I applied it generously, it would start to feel dry again after a while, which was a bit disappointing.
Tip
When I do modeling packs at home, I apply a generous amount and then do the pack. That way, the soothing effect is doubled, and if it starts to feel dry, I just apply another layer after finishing the pack and go to sleep.

Pros
I was selected as a Hwahae Trial Reviewer and am leaving a review after using the product about 6 times! First of all, these days I've been using a beauty device to massage my face about 3 times a week at home ㅋㅋ I applied the product generously before using the device or as a soothing step after my routine. As a person with oily skin, this was just perfect for me. It definitely had a calming effect. It was adequately moisturizing and not at all heavy, so it was comfortable and easy to apply. The pump packaging also made it more convenient to use ㅎㅎ When I use gel-type products, I sometimes get a few breakouts, but I didn't have that issue at all even after using this multiple times. I actually didn't check the ingredients before, but looking at them today, the ingredients also seem good ㅎㅎ
Cons
I didn't really have any complaints. However, even for my oily skin, I felt it was a bit too lightweight, especially in the winter, and I might need something more nourishing to finish off my routine.
Tip
When using gel products and beauty devices, it's good to apply this generously ㅎㅎ

Pros
🐰Convenience The biggest advantage is that it can be used hygienically thanks to the convenient pump type. Using a pump type product definitely makes the skincare routine less of a hassle, so I can make sure I don't skip any steps. 🐰Spreadability I really dislike products that need to be patted in for absorption, and I also don't like stickiness. I prefer lightweight products. If the finish is oily, I'd rather not use it at all, but since this is a soothing gel, it applied lightly which was nice~ 🐰Absorption Since it's a soothing gel, after pumping and gently massaging it in a few times, it gets fully absorbed. It's perfect for quickly soothing and cooling when I need that. 🐰Texture It's just a basic, lightweight soothing gel texture, nothing out of the ordinary. 🐰Soothing Even without refrigerating it, I could feel the cooling sensation as soon as I pumped it onto my hand, and when I applied it to my body, I could feel the refreshing coolness. I tend to sweat a lot at work, and when I come home and wash up and apply it all over, it really helps soothe me! 🐰Fragrance This is the first time I've used an Houttuynia cordata product, and I felt like the scent was a mix of a herbal aroma and a rubbery smell. It wasn't a fragrance I particularly liked, but after using it a few times, I got used to it. And the fragrance isn't too strong after applying it all over my face and body, so it wasn't an issue.
Cons
The fragrance didn't match my preferences at first, but I got used to it.
Tip
Refrigerate it to really maximize the soothing and cooling benefits!

Pros
The product has excellent moisture content and no oiliness, making it perfect for oily skin in the summer. It also helps reduce facial flushing. The fragrance is not overpowering, and the large volume is great for frequent use when experiencing heat flushes. As it contains Houttuynia cordata, it seems beneficial for acne as well. The packaging is not difficult to use or crumpled. 💡Refreshing cooling sensation 💡Large volume 💡Abundant moisture 💡Good for oil control 💡Easy to dispense
Cons
The only downside is that it dries out quickly like aloe gel, so it's better to use it with other products. As I have dry skin, I had to apply this along with other products.
Tip
As mentioned in the downside, it can be a bit drying, so applying it with other moisturizing products will ensure abundant hydration.

Pros
This is a Hwahae Trial Reviewer review! I have extremely sensitive and acne-prone skin, so I place the greatest importance on the ingredients when looking at cosmetics. This product has such gentle ingredients that I was able to use it without any worries. Also, since the houttuynia cordata ingredient suited me well, it seemed even better. The product texture is a bit thinner than other gels! If you tilt your hand with it resting on it, it will flow. Perhaps that's why it absorbs quickly, making it really easy to use. The soothing effect was also quite good. I have severe redness, but after it absorbed, the redness was significantly reduced. After absorption, it finishes off cleanly without any stickiness. Since I tend to have oily T-zone, this was an advantage for me. However, those with dry skin may feel it's a bit drying. The absence of blemishes is the most important factor, and I didn't experience any issues while using it; rather, I felt my existing blemishes were calmed down! I think this will be great to use in the summer!
Cons
The fragrance is a bit strong. Among the houttuynia cordata products I've used, this one had the strongest scent... It has a bit of an herbal shampoo-like feel, but it didn't significantly interfere with using it.
Tip
I think this would be good for those whose skin agrees well with houttuynia cordata. I use it after toner and finish with an ampoule!

Pros
Skin Type: Oily, Dry, Sensitive, Atopic - Soothing The most memorable feature is the skin soothing effect. It is said to lower the skin temperature by 6 degrees, and lower temperature is better for the skin. The makeup also seems to absorb better, and my skin feels more comfortable. I think this would be great for people with a lot of facial heat. - Moisture The immediate moisture supply and soothing effect are good, but the moisture does not last long. As soon as it's absorbed, it dries out again. I guess that's the same with other soothing gels? I didn't plan to fully moisturize with this alone, so the fact that it stays true to the soothing gel's core function is not a major downside. In fact, if it had too much moisture, that would have been a negative. - Packaging The green package that reminds me of nature is pretty. The pump type is also hygienic. The pump is not too stiff, so adjusting the amount is easy. It looks sturdy!! - Ingredients Houttuynia cordata is a well-known ingredient that's great for troubled skin, and it also contains 7 types of Centella extracts. Hearing about the anti-inflammatory and skin regenerative properties, my skin feels like it's going to get better just from reading about the ingredients..!
Cons
I couldn't really find any major downsides. The only thing is that the price is not as cheap compared to other soothing gel brands. If I had to pick something, the relatively high price is a bit disappointing.
Tip
I've been using it on my face and it doesn't cause any irritation or breakouts, and the soothing effect seems to be working well, so I've been using it on my back skin as well. I sometimes get some bumps on my back and there are already some scars, so when I read about the ingredients being great for troubled skin, skin regeneration, and anti-inflammatory, I thought it would be perfect for my back. It absorbs quickly and doesn't feel sticky, so I've been using it consistently. Since my face doesn't have as many trouble spots, the Houttuynia cordata and Centella extracts seem more necessary for my back. It hasn't made a drastic visible improvement yet, but I haven't gotten any new trouble spots, and it feels soothing, so I plan to keep using it on my back going forward.

Pros
The skin feels soothing and refreshed right after application. I also like the subtle herbal scent. It's more like an essence than a regular soothing gel, and it absorbs faster when you pat it in. In the morning, I can just use this for my basic skincare routine before going to work, as it leaves my skin feeling light and great. My previous moisturizer was a bit heavy, but this one has a nice feel and the pump packaging is convenient.
Cons
At night, it feels a bit drying when used alone, so I've been applying a drop of argan oil along with it. And since the price point is a bit high for using it all over my body, I've just been applying it to my neck and arms. Other than that, I'm satisfied with it.
Tip
Keeping it chilled in the fridge and patting it in while absorbing really makes it even better.
