I'd recommend applying a small amount for oily skin types.
Cons📌There's really nothing disappointing. If you're extremely picky, the only thing is that there's a very slight rubbery scent. 📌Oily skin types may experience some excess oil. 📌It might feel stuffy if you use it in the summer (I'd recommend using it in the winter).
TipSince it's winter these days, if you apply it after cleansing and doing your basic skincare routine, it'll feel moisturizing and non-sticky, which is nice. 💓

ConsI often use both spatula and jar-type containers, so the jar form doesn't bother me, but the container seems a bit wider than necessary for the product volume, so a slimmer design would be preferable. The dense texture does take some time to absorb fully. Also, from the first day of using only this moisturizing cream, I noticed that some painful, unripe pimples kept appearing, which may be due to ingredients that don't agree with my oily skin. I'm not sure of the exact cause, but the breakouts seem to be an issue (I'll have to observe this further through the end of using the product and make a final assessment later). However, the moisturizing power that helps smooth over the dryness is good.
TipWhen using a gel cream, applying mineral sunscreen on top can sometimes cause pilling and accentuate flakiness, reducing the smoothness of application. But when using this moisturizing cream and then applying the mineral sunscreen, I didn't experience the same issues with small flakes appearing, and I was able to apply the sunscreen smoothly. The combination worked well. Despite the rich texture of the moisturizing cream, it feels lightweight and dense on the skin, with a silky, non-heavy finish. This seems suitable for oily/combination skin types as well. It seems like a good option for the transitional weather. (Of course, skin types can vary from person to person, so this is just my personal experience and opinion.)

ConsAs a person with dry skin, I applied to be a Hwahae Trial Reviewer, but I felt more tightness with this product than the cream I was using before. My conclusion is that this product may not be suitable for people with dry skin to use in the winter.
TipFor someone like me with dry skin, one application wasn't enough. I applied it again before bed and the tightness was gone. I'd recommend additional applications for those with dry skin like me.

It's almost fragrance-free, but if your sense of smell is very developed, you can detect a subtle, nutty scent. The next day, my makeup applies so well and looks great! The amount is generous, so I can generously apply it to my face at night and sleep well. I feel like my skin is recovering overnight!!
ConsSince it's a highly concentrated formula, when I applied the serum and then this cream, it felt a bit thick and heavy, and it took some extra rubbing to fully absorb it. When using a beauty device, it felt a bit resistant, but it did eventually all get absorbed into my skin.
TipUsing this with a beauty device can boost the effects!

The centella extract and ceramides help with skin recovery and regeneration, giving a good skin-nourishing effect. It does not have the characteristic scent of cica creams, and it is a fragrance-free product. Ingredient rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The lack of fragrance is great, and there are no sensitizing ingredients, so it should suit various skin types well. I usually like cica creams, but this product doesn't have the distinctive cica scent. Of course, I personally enjoy the cica aroma, but it can be divisive. I would highly recommend this to those who don't prefer the cica fragrance. It's not a thick cream, but more of a moisture cream + nourishing cream hybrid, so it can be used as an all-in-one product.🫶🏻
ConsThere's really nothing disappointing about this product. The ingredients are good, and the amount is not too little. If I had to nitpick, a tube packaging might make it even easier to apply. The plastic container is lightweight though, and I'll have to look into recycling options once I finish the product.~
TipReplenish the moisture! As the weather gets drier in the fall, I've been layering a toner -> essence to really let it sink in, followed by a light lotion to boost the hydration. For those who don't like the heavy feel of creams, you can even skip the cream in the middle. Personally, I found that the additional moisture layering made the texture similar to a snail cream - bouncy but not overly oily. And when I wake up, my skin feels so smooth and supple! 👍🏻👍🏻

Texture and Application The texture is creamy and dense, so it seems like it would be quite oily. However, when applied, the skin feels comfortable and the moisture lasts a long time, without the product feeling overly greasy. It has a creamy, hydrating texture. 2. Fragrance I usually prefer fragrance-free products, and this one has almost no scent, which I liked. Some people may perceive the lack of fragrance as a scent in itself, but for me, the fragrance is acceptable. With my thin, extremely dry skin, I'm very attentive to skin barrier health. The combination of centella, which is effective for soothing, and ceramides similar to the skin's own structure, is something I couldn't resist trying. Plus, it has whitening and wrinkle improvement functions, which is even more satisfying. From the first day of testing, for 3 days I just used the enriching cream after toning my skin, and my skin remained hydrated and comfortable the next day. As I've aged, I tend to prefer products with a slight oiliness, but I felt my skin was a bit lacking in that regard. So for my evening skincare, I mixed the cream with a facial oil before applying, and my skin stayed comfortable and non-drying until the next morning. Since the seasons are changing, I need to be more thorough with my basic skincare, so I added a serum step to replenish moisture. This seemed to resolve any lack of oil I had been experiencing. I apply the same steps in the morning, finishing with sunscreen. However, I do feel that for my skin, this product alone may not be enough during the depths of winter.
ConsThere are no issues with the application. I prefer cream products in tube form rather than jars, so it would be great if this was available in a tube. It would also be nice if it had a built-in spatula. The cream is very dense, so it's best to apply it in layers, gently patting it in to absorb it.
TipAs a dry skin type, I find it helpful to mix the cream with a facial oil. This is a technique I often use for products that feel a bit lacking in oil, but those with oily skin should avoid this.

ConsI would recommend this more for those with dry skin types rather than oily skin types. However, in weather like the current seasonal changes, it could also be quite helpful for those with oily skin.
