It felt like it almost evaporated rather than being absorbed, and since it didn't leave my skin feeling particularly hydrated, I made sure to apply it twice. In this dry weather, I followed up with a generous layer of moisturizer. At first, I was surprised when the product dripped down my cheeks after applying it with the dropper, but I got used to it over time. Scent: There's a strong, cool peppermint scent. Initially, I was put off by the alcohol-like smell (which I'm not a fan of), but as I continued to use it, it reminded me of pine needles. Quantity: The amount is really generous! It seems like I'll never run out no matter how much I use.
ConsIt left my skin feeling extremely dry. In fact, it even caused some blemishes. The packaging design is entirely in English, making it difficult to quickly identify the ingredients. The container is made of heavy glass, which makes it quite weighty.

However, this product has a great absorbing texture that's hydrating without being sticky or irritating. I always approach new skincare lines with high hopes, and although I got to try this one as part of The Hwahae Testers, I'm 200% sure I'll be repurchasing it!
ConsBeing a toner, you might think it would suit all skin types. But as someone with sensitive combination skin, I find that alcohol-based ingredients that work well for oily skin are absolutely terrible for me.
TipIt would be great to use similar products from this line. You could adjust your oil and moisture balance with a cream formula tailored to your skin type!

It also absorbed quickly, leaving my skin feeling soft and dry without any stickiness - that was a standout feature for me.
ConsThe scent is much stronger than other products, which I found off-putting. It's disappointing that the fragrance is so hard to get used to.

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.ProsI was looking for an ampoule with hydration rather than just functional benefits, and I think this one meets my needs. Although I've only used it for about 2 weeks and can't speak to its effectiveness on major blemishes yet, it's shown good results in soothing small bumps and improving skin texture. I dislike sticky formulas, but this absorbs well without any discomfort! It's closer to a watery texture than a runny one. The generous volume allows for worry-free use, and since my skin responds well to centella, I think it was even more effective for me. When I experienced slight redness, applying this cool formula quickly calmed my skin.
ConsI deducted one star because I'm not a fan of the scent. Even though I'm not particularly sensitive to fragrances, the fact that it bothered me makes me think that those who are sensitive to scents might find it uncomfortable to use.
TipAs I mentioned earlier, this product has a more watery texture rather than a runny one, which might make it slightly less moisturizing. If you're used to ampoules with more hydrating properties, you might want to pay extra attention to moisturizing with a hydrating cream or emulsion.

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.ProsMy skin type is dry, sensitive, and prone to blemishes, especially around the chin area. I have particularly sensitive skin that's easily irritated. The packaging is great - a semi-transparent bottle with a white label looks clean and attractive. It's also convenient to see how much product is left. The dropper makes it easy to use and hygienic. The texture is watery and light, spreading smoothly and absorbing quickly without any stickiness. It leaves the skin feeling hydrated. Application is incredibly smooth and moisturizing. There's no pilling or makeup separation after absorption, which is fantastic. Despite my sensitive skin, the 85% Centella Asiatica leaf water content is great for calming the skin. I can apply it even when my skin is feeling sensitive without any irritation. It leaves my skin feeling comfortable. I'd recommend this for blemish-prone and sensitive skin types!
ConsI haven't found any downsides yet! If I discover any while using it, I'll be sure to add them.

It applies smoothly, absorbs quickly, and doesn't feel sticky, which is great. Despite being an ampoule, it leaves a pleasantly matte finish after application. ✓ As a product designed for blemish-prone skin, it's completely free of excess oil. This makes it ideal for those with oily skin who are concerned about sebum production. ✓ As someone with adult acne and oily skin, I've been using it for about two weeks. While the results aren't dramatic, I've noticed a calming effect on my skin. ✓ Given the generous amount of product, I don't find the price to be excessive!
Cons✓ Due to its extremely lightweight formula, those without oily skin might find it quite drying. You may need to supplement with other hydrating products. ✓ There's a very slight, not overpowering alcohol scent. While I found it acceptable as it seemed to help calm my acne, those sensitive to fragrances should take note.
TipBecause it can be drying, I follow up with a hydrating essence and moisturizer after using this product!

It seems effective for acne-prone and troubled skin. Its gentle formula appears to calm the skin quickly, making me want to use it consistently. ▫️Application Method_ I primarily used it after cleansing in the morning and evening. Since it's a large bottle, I applied it generously. The texture isn't sticky at all and has a runny consistency, so I layered it multiple times. ▫️Scent_ The scent is reminiscent of a forest, which might be hit or miss for some people. Personally, I found it quite pleasant.
Cons▫️Packaging_ The packaging is clean and white, but due to its large capacity, I was surprised by how big the container was when I first opened it. If there's a downside, it's that there's too much small English text, which tends to go unnoticed. ▫️Volume_ I think this might be one of the largest volumes for an ampoule - it's more than I expected. It should last a long time. However, the price is quite high.

Even with my sensitive skin, it absorbed well without any irritation. What surprised me most was the enormous amount for an ampoule! It's great that it'll last for a long time!
ConsWhile it absorbs quickly, those with dry skin might find it a bit drying. I applied two drops on my face and felt a slight dryness. For reference, I have combination dehydrated skin. Also, the scent might be hit or miss. It's like an herbal scent, maybe mugwort? Anyway, it has that traditional medicinal smell, so be cautious if you're not into that! However, it's not overpowering, so I'm still using it comfortably.
TipWhen I applied it generously before bed, I noticed my skin looked better the next morning!

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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.ProsFirst off, the generous amount allows for liberal use. Usually, I go through half a bottle of ampoule in about two weeks, but this one seems to last forever! The scent is pleasant and non-irritating. When I first opened the bottle, the fragrance was subtle yet intriguing. The more I use it, the more I love it. It's not your typical cosmetic scent - it actually makes you feel like it's doing something good for your skin. It absorbs well into the skin without feeling sticky. I was surprised by how fluid it is compared to my previous emulsion-type ampoule. It absorbs quickly, and most importantly, it's not sticky at all. This is especially great for me since I use three layers of ampoule, and with other products, my eyelids would stick together from the second application. While it may not be intensely hydrating, I can confidently say it's perfect for summer use. I've been searching for a non-sticky ampoule that allows for multiple applications, and I've finally found it!
ConsIt might feel a bit dry for winter use. Even with three layers of ampoule, my face felt tight after a short while. I'm in my second week of use now and slowly figuring out the best method, but when I first applied it using my usual routine, the dryness was a bit challenging. Other than that, I have no complaints.
TipAs someone who not only uses ampoules as a base but also does daily mask routines alternating between grain masks, toner packs, and sheet masks, I'd like to share some tips on how to incorporate this ampoule into various mask applications. For grain masks, prepare a spoonful of your chosen grain (single type or a mix), combine it with a soothing gel or toner until you reach your desired consistency, and generously add the ampoule during this process. When doing a toner pack, layer the ampoule in small amounts multiple times to build it up in your skin. Before applying the toner-soaked cotton pad, apply a generous layer of ampoule that hasn't fully absorbed, then place the cotton pad on top. Finish by applying a thick layer of cream before starting your pack. For sheet masks, apply three layers of ampoule to lock it into your skin, then put on the mask. Afterwards, generously apply more ampoule on top of the mask to maintain hydration. For all masks, 15-20 minutes is the ideal duration!

Application: Absorbs without stickiness, with a slight oily feel + leaves a smooth, slightly powdery finish on the skin. Moisturization: Hydration and moisturization were average~ It didn't feel exceptionally hydrating! 👍Unexpected benefits I noticed..! 1. Brightening..? Not sure if it's because of this or something else... but my skin looks a bit more radiant without using any separate brightening products! 2. Skin texture! When I touch my face while cleansing, the texture seems improved~ The lightweight formula also doesn't pill under makeup, so it works well even when applied before putting on cosmetics, not just before bed!
Cons1. The scent! I thought it might be from the Centella, but it has a rather strong, peculiar smell that I don't notice in other Centella products! 2. English instructions! After discarding the box... all the information on the product container is in English... bit of a struggle... 3. While I didn't experience any blemishes or issues using this, there weren't any standout effects or unique benefits that made me go 'Wow!'
TipThe dropper dispenses the product quite quickly, so you need to apply it swiftly to each side of your face! It stings terribly if it gets in your eyes... so it's best to absorb it quickly before it can run into your eyes~~ Using this ampoule alone might leave your face feeling tight. Lately, I've been using this ampoule + Etude Soon Jung Emulsion + Dive In Moisturizer, and on particularly dry days, I also apply some Physiogel cream! #The photos below show before use in the 1st and 2nd images, and after using morning and night for ten days in the 3rd and 4th images.
