Please make improvements~~
Cons✔The texture causes disappointing absorption. It takes quite a long time to melt into the skin, and there's a thick, waxy (paraffin-like) feeling that makes it difficult to apply. This really seems to be an urgent area for improvement. You'll need to be very careful with the amount used, especially in the morning, as excessive use can cause makeup to slip. ✔It doesn't seem suitable as a moisturizer on its own, and should be used sparingly after applying a moisturizer to help lock in hydration. ✔The price is shockingly high, more than expected.
Tip✔Given the rich, thick texture, it's better suited for nighttime use rather than busy mornings. ✔If the application is a concern, you could try mixing it with a bit of jojoba oil or your usual lotion/cream to make it easier to spread. ✔I found that gently pressing it with my hands to melt it, then applying it to the skin, actually works better. ✔As someone whose lips tend to get dry in all seasons, I found that using this as a lip balm made my lips feel moisturized quickly. The gentle ingredients make it a good lip balm alternative!

ConsThe spreadability is~~~~~ ㅜㅠ Since the texture is thick and buttery, it's hard to control the amount and it's not easy to apply either ㅜㅠ
TipSince it's thick, I found that applying a sufficient amount of essence first, then applying it or mixing it with the essence, helped cover the lack of spreadability

First, when I opened the lid, I was surprised - I thought there was an inner lid, but it was just one thick lid. It felt very solid when I touched it (even more so because it was frozen during delivery). Then I read the detailed explanation and learned that the formula becomes firmer when the ceramide content is higher, so when I scraped it with a spatula, the cream finally came out. They said not to use too much, so I tried to use just the right amount. In the winter, I usually apply moisturizer thickly, but this is about half of that. I couldn't quantify the amount, but I tried to scoop out a round shape with the spatula. After that, I rubbed it in with my hands, and I realized why they said not to do that - the amount absorbed into my hands was significantly reduced, so now I just melt and spread it on my face directly. It feels like using a multi-care stick, but without having to scoop it out. It's similar to how I don't want to waste lip balm, so I apply it directly. There's no oiliness at all, but it's not drying or tight either. It has a unique texture - not dewy or glossy, but still moist and bouncy when touched. Sometimes I do apply a face oil, especially on wrinkle-prone areas, before bed, but I often forget and it's not really a problem. Even when I wake up, there's no dryness. It's still a bit visually dry-looking, but overall, it's a unique and effective product.
ConsThe only downside would be the texture of the formula. It is quite thick and firm, so it's difficult to apply without using a spatula. However, this is likely due to the high ceramide content, so it may not be necessary to improve it. There will probably be a lot of mixed opinions, but those who like ceramides will likely adapt and use it regardless. Emphasizing the benefits of ceramides could be a good approach - for example, explaining how ceramides penetrate the skin's stratum corneum to strengthen the skin barrier, which can be helpful for those with wrinkles or atopic skin. This could make the product more appealing.
TipI see. The technique is to use a spatula to scoop out just the right amount - not too much, but enough to cover the face. After a few tries, you'll get a feel for the right amount. Then, you can apply it directly to the face, rubbing it in with your fingers like applying lip balm. At first, it may feel thick and firm, but as you rub it in, the warmth of your fingers seems to melt it, making it spread easily. That's a good approach to work with the thick, dense texture.

The skin texture and unevenness seem to be somewhat organized. 2. There is no oiliness at all and it finishes refreshingly (even more so than serums). 3. When applying this product and waking up to cleanse, the skin feels more taut and firm rather than soft and supple (the feeling is completely different from other cosmetics). 4. The redness from blemishes and acne scars seems to be somewhat relieved. 5. The fragrance is almost odorless, allowing anyone to use it comfortably.
Cons1. Among the over 100 cosmetics I've used so far, this has the worst application - it's too thick and sticky to spread. It's about 3 times as sticky as a mineral sunscreen. As a result, it takes a long time to apply. Despite this, the benefits outweigh the poor application, so I'm giving it 5 stars! 2. The price is a bit high.
TipIf you apply too much, the product won't fully absorb into the skin, and it will come off like a stained cloth even with just a light touch, so be mindful of that!

The texture is quite firm, like the butter in the refrigerator. So you have to scoop it out with a spatula and apply it. It seemed a bit thick and difficult to spread at first, but when you rub it into the skin, it melts like warm bread and butter, and applies smoothly without any trouble. There is no sticky feeling when applied, and it has a somewhat matte finish. It feels a little more dewy than when I apply a primer, but the oiliness is not excessive and it doesn't feel greasy at all. After application, there is no dryness, and I feel it provides sufficient hydration. Since I only used it for about 10 days, there wasn't any dramatic change, but at least it provided enough moisture without feeling greasy. I think it also helps control oil a bit - in the evenings when I apply it and in the mornings when I cleanse my face, the dewiness seems a bit less noticeable. Also, a small amount is enough to be effective, so I think it's quite good overall. If I finish the whole jar and am satisfied, I would consider repurchasing it.
ConsSince the texture is quite thick, the spreadability is a bit lacking compared to other moisturizers. It's not that it doesn't spread at all, but it's relatively more difficult to smoothly apply compared to other products. When I try to apply it directly from the spatula to my face, it sometimes slides down. So I first transfer it to my hands and then gently apply it in sections to my skin. The explanation says the thick texture is due to the high ceramide content, but I wish there was a more user-friendly way to apply it.
TipI apply this product as the final step. When I apply it directly on top of toner or lotion, since my skin is already a bit slippery, it seems to spread more easily.

You can see just from reading that my skin is delicate.ㅠㅠ It's a skin that can't use just anything, but since there are no allergens in the ingredients and it's clean, I applied to be a Hwahae Trial Reviewer and tried it out. ✔️ It's much better to mix and apply it rather than applying it alone on the face.(I wrote this in the tip section, so please refer to it and try it out if you're interested ㅎㅎ) ✔️ The amount may seem small, but since it's a balm type, you don't need to use much at a time, so the amount doesn't decrease quickly. ✔️ It's for dry skin, but there's not much oiliness. In my opinion, it could also work for combination skin. Oily-skinned people could also use a tiny amount on dry areas in the winter.
Cons📌 Spreadability: Since it's a balm, it's extremely thick. It doesn't seem to be a product that's easy to apply. It doesn't melt well in the winter. 📌 Moisturizing power: Since there's not much oiliness, it seems lacking for the dry skin + winter combination!
TipI used it mixed with a thin lotion and balm. (I usually use the Illiyoon lotion, so I mixed it with the Illiyoon lotion) And as mentioned in the instructions, it's good to use on a hydrated face. It fills in the moisture completely, and at the end, apply a small amount on the face and melt it with the palm heat!

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 high ceramide content helps with moisture retention and is effective in temporarily relieving itchiness. Ceramide, as well as many other moisturizing ingredients, are contained in the product. A small amount is sufficient to provide adequate moisture. After application, the skin feels soft and smooth without any stickiness or greasiness. It feels like a protective layer is applied as the final step in your skincare routine.
ConsFor my very dry skin, the spreadability is disappointing. It has a waxy, thick consistency that doesn't apply smoothly. When I apply this and then do my makeup, it pills and clumps, causing the makeup to come off in patches. I'm not sure if my skin feels moisturized after washing my face in the morning.
TipBased on the instructions, we recommend using a spatula to scoop out the product and applying it directly to damp skin. Also, it's better to use the product in smaller, multiple applications.

Even a light touch causes redness and a stinging sensation when my skin is dry. *Moisturizing Since it's a balm-type product, I didn't feel the dryness even without using multiple products. Just applying the Skin Ampoule and Ceramide Balm was enough to withstand the winter winds. *Finish The finish is like having my face coated in wax. It's not greasy, but has a clingy, adherent feel on the skin. *Soothing When I apply this product, the moisturizing effect helps prevent my skin from feeling irritated. However, I'll need to use it a bit longer to see if it effectively reduces the redness. But it does seem like the redness has decreased somewhat.
Cons*Usage It's a bit thick when applying. The friction causes redness, but it does subside quickly. If I don't properly prep my skin before using the Ceramide Balm, it becomes difficult to apply. *Price Almost 90,000 won... It's expensive.
TipThe instructions say that using a small amount is better for the skin. The amount needed is about half a fingernail for the entire face. Although it's pricey, it seems like it will last a long time.

It's a cream I've never experienced before. It's super thick and creamy, but when you apply it to your face, your face becomes as moisturized as the thick texture suggests. However, the moisture isn't oily, but rather a supple, plump sensation that fills your face. There's absolutely no greasy feeling, just a wonderfully moisturized sensation. Even when I look in the mirror, my face looks matte, but when I touch it, it's incredibly hydrated. I'm happily writing this review because of this amazing feeling~ When I woke up, my face felt even more pleasantly moisturized. Haha This is something you really have to try for yourself to understand!
ConsThere are definitely some downsides. But based on the usage experience and effects, I think I'll just use it despite those downsides. The spreadability is really difficult Haha I have to roll it around a lot and work it into my skin, and the super creamy texture doesn't make for great spreadability. But since it really does make my skin feel improved, I can overlook that.
TipYou can mix in a slightly watery moisturizer to help address the downside~
