Natural ingredient scent? Feels healing :) • Post-hydration care: Depends on skin type One night, I fell asleep without washing my face after wearing sunscreen all day. Woke up in the early morning, too lazy to wash properly, so I quickly wiped my face with a toner pad. Feeling worried about my skin condition, I decided to try this mask I'd bought during an Olive Young sale. What started as a casual attempt turned into a full-fledged review. Firstly, the sheet adhesion is incredible. The serum absorption is high, so it doesn't drip and adheres perfectly to the skin. There was hardly any serum left in the package after removing the sheet! It seemed to have excellent absorption capacity. Also, I used to avoid bamboo sheet masks from another brand due to poor adhesion and dripping serum. I bought this Minari mask because the package didn't mention bamboo, only stating it was made from vegan biodegradable materials. Surprisingly, it has amazing adhesion! Upon checking for this review, I found out it's bamboo material...!? Maybe it's a difference in technology. Interestingly, the other brand's product was more expensive. It really adhered closely to my face, giving the feeling that the contents were being well absorbed into the skin. Usually, I always get at least one blemish when I sleep without washing my face, but the next day my skin was fine! It seems to have a soothing effect.
ConsWith its 5 types of hyaluronic acid and skin barrier moisturizing properties, I eagerly absorbed the essence and observed after removing the mask. The initial finish was not only hydrating but also seemed moisturizing, making me think I could skip applying cream. However, as time passed, my skin started to feel dry. I ended up finishing with a light emulsion-type moisturizer. It would be great if this mask alone could complete the skincare routine for skin soothing and rest.
TipIn summer, keeping it cool in the fridge would make it perfect for a simple, one-step skincare routine. In fall and winter, you might need to finish with a moisturizer!

Unlike some new products that can cause blemishes, this one didn't, which I appreciated! It seems to be gentle on the skin. Some people mention that the amount of serum in the mask is small, but I actually found it to be just right. Too much can feel overwhelming for me. The cooling effect is great, and it's excellent for soothing the skin. As the name suggests, I felt that calming the skin was the main focus of this mask. I don't like sheet masks that feel too heavy or sticky, but this one was perfect. It absorbed well without any issues. However, I'd recommend applying a moisturizer after using the mask to lock in the hydration.
ConsIt felt a bit ordinary, which was slightly disappointing. I didn't experience any 'wow' effects, but that might actually make it suitable for daily use. I think it's good for everyday use as a soothing mask.

Once a month, when that time comes, I usually get a few blemishes. Treating them often leaves behind redness and marks. Take a look at the before and after photos when I used the mask straight from the fridge - you can see the instant results! Notice how the small dead skin cells and tiny bumps seem to have calmed down a bit?! I have a slightly larger face, so I often find masks don't quite cover my chin area, but the Watercress Soothing Serum Mask fits almost perfectly! I've tried many other sheet masks, but only a few have worked well for me. Some products even caused my skin to become oily overnight, leading to more blemishes. However, the Watercress Soothing Serum Mask didn't cause any of these issues, so I felt completely at ease using all the samples I received! I'll definitely repurchase this - 100% sure! The scent is somewhere between watercress and mugwort. It's not overpowering or off-putting, but rather subtle and relaxing. However, if you don't like the smell of mugwort or watercress, you might want to keep that in mind! Other than that, I didn't find any downsides to this product!
ConsIf I had to nitpick, I'd say the price is a bit steep. But that's if I really had to find something! One reason I didn't mind the seemingly small amount of serum in the mask was that the sheet itself was already generously soaked. However, there wasn't quite enough left over to apply to my body!

Here's what I loved about the Watercress Soothing Serum Mask: - Calming effect: After extracting blemishes, I put it on for about 10 minutes and the redness goes down! - Cooling sensation: It feels incredibly refreshing when applied, even without refrigeration! I actually found it irritating when stored in the fridge, but it's plenty cool at room temperature. - Essence: There's a generous amount. I applied the mask, then used extra essence for a second layer on my face. I even had enough left to moisturize my elbows. - Hydration: The moisturizing effect lasts until my morning cleanse the next day! It's perfect for those chilly spring days when winter makes a comeback.
ConsWhile I saw a calming effect after using the mask post-blemish extraction, the hydration was a bit too intense for me and seemed to turn into excess oil. I noticed some small bumps appearing on my forehead. Still, I think it would be perfect for winter use!
TipI recommend using the excess essence not just on your face, but also on dry areas of your body.

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.ProsEssence Quantity: One of the best things is the generous amount of essence. You don't have to worry about it drying out. Even after placing the sheet on your face and applying the remaining essence on top, it stays moisturizing for 20 minutes. Sheet Quality: The sheet feels smooth and soft, suggesting it won't irritate the skin. Some masks can feel slightly rough like paper, but this one is gentle, potentially allowing for better skin soothing. Cooling Effect: As it's a calming mask, there's a slight cooling effect. However, it's not overpowering to the point of irritation, which is great. Scent: It has a herbal scent. As someone who already enjoys herbal fragrances, I found this particularly pleasant.
ConsIt didn't cause any blemishes, and I don't have any specific complaints! I should mention that the scent might be a matter of personal preference.

No stickiness: Once absorbed, there's no sticky residue - a welcome change from overly tacky masks! Generous essence and sheet: The sheet mask is well-soaked, with ample essence to reapply to areas like the T-zone if they start to dry. Scent: Personally, I enjoyed the herbal aroma reminiscent of a traditional medicine shop.
ConsIt didn't quite alleviate deep dryness as much as I'd hoped. I needed to fully absorb the essence and layer on additional cream. (I typically apply three layers of product.)

Also, after starting college, I had been dealing with small bumps and various blemishes due to frequent makeup use, but I experienced noticeable soothing and fading of these issues. I loved that it provided a nice cooling effect even without refrigeration, which was great for my skin!
ConsIf there's one downside, it would be the rather high price point. While I understand the cost likely reflects the quality ingredients, as a college student, it's a bit challenging to spend around $3 daily on a soothing skincare routine!

The mask sheet adheres well without any lifting. I love the cool, refreshing sensation - it's great for reducing facial heat. The fact that it has good ingredients makes it even better. I've seen reviews mentioning a lack of essence, but I didn't feel that at all. It seems to have just the right amount. After removing the mask, my skin felt plump and deeply hydrated. It didn't leave any residue or excess oil - my skin just felt firmer. As for blemish-calming effects or other noticeable results, I'll need to use it more to tell.
ConsIs it really 3000 won per sheet? At that price, I wonder if it's worth sticking to this product specifically.

Serum Texture As a mask focused on soothing, it has a deeply hydrating and moisturizing texture. When applied to the face, you immediately feel a cooling effect, which continues even after removing the mask, giving a wonderfully calming sensation! Some masks dry out quickly if they lack essence, but this product contains plenty of essence, so it doesn't dry out even when left on for an extended period. 2. Sheet Material While the essence is crucial for sheet masks, I believe the compatibility between the essence and the mask sheet is equally important for maximizing the mask's effectiveness! Sometimes mask sheets can be too thick, making them uncomfortable to wear, or too thin, unable to hold enough essence. This product seems to have just the right thickness. Additionally, I've experienced some mask sheets feeling rough, but this one is pleasantly soft without any discomfort. The generous size is also a small but significant detail that allows for thorough coverage, even reaching the corners of the face, which enhances the overall satisfaction of using this mask.
ConsI didn't find any particular drawbacks while using this product. If I had to mention one thing, it might be that it doesn't stand out significantly from other sheet masks. Also, since it focuses more on soothing rather than moisturizing, those with very dry skin might find it lacking in hydration.

I had hives on my face and it was itchy. Here are my thoughts after using it four times: I found the soothing effect to be excellent. About a week after the hives appeared, using the mask provided a cooling effect along with hydration, which helped calm my skin. The next morning, I noticed the symptoms had significantly subsided. Currently, I only have slight itching, and the raised hives on my skin have almost completely disappeared. The sheet adheres well to the face. It contains plenty of essence, so even after applying the sheet, if you use all the remaining essence, it stays moist for about 20 minutes. Even when I used it while blow-drying my hair, it didn't dry out and remained hydrated until my hair was completely dry. This shows how much essence it contains. Although I used it as part of The Hwahae Testers program, I would consider purchasing it when I want to use a sheet mask.
ConsWhen used while the skin barrier is compromised, there's a slight burning sensation. However, I understand this could be due to my skin being in such a sensitive state.
