Most of its drawbacks are forgivable at this price point. It's not a bad choice if you're looking for a casual skincare treat. ▫️Hydration It's packed with essence (so much that it drips when you try to apply it) and contains glycerin, giving it a serum-like consistency. I found it really effective at tackling deep dryness and providing excellent hydration. Just keep in mind that I have oily skin, so your experience may vary. ▫️Gentle ingredients I checked the ingredients on Hwahae, and there were no caution ratings at all. The ingredients focus on providing hydration without irritating the skin, which is quite reassuring. If you're worried about blemishes from using an inexpensive Daiso product, this should put your mind at ease.
Cons▫️Cooling effect For a hydrogel mask, it doesn't adhere as well as expected, which might be why the cooling effect isn't very noticeable. I wouldn't recommend it for soothing purposes. ▫️Residue The good hydration and rich essence also mean there's a lot of leftover product after removing the mask. As someone with oily skin, I wouldn't recommend this for summer use.
Tip▫️Absorption After removing the mask, I waited and massaged the remaining essence into my skin several times. This helped it absorb well without leaving any excess on my oily skin. ▫️Refrigerate before use Since the cooling effect is lacking, you might find it more satisfying if you chill it in the fridge before application.

Affordable price Hydrogel masks are usually quite pricey, so being able to get one for just a dollar is a big plus. 2. Abundant essence I was surprised by how much essence dripped out while I was unfolding the mask, removing the film, and applying it to my face. It takes a bit of time, but there's plenty of product. 3. Adheres well to skin The mask clings to the skin nicely. I had to apply it while standing up today instead of lying down, but it still stayed put. In the photo, it might look a bit loose because I applied it hastily, but after pressing it down again, it adhered completely to my skin. 4. Calms blemishes I noticed that some emerging blemishes seemed to subside a bit. In the second photo I uploaded, you can see that the redness on my right cheek has gone down.
Cons1. Not ideal for soothing sensitive skin My skin has been quite sensitive lately. I've been using vitamin masks almost daily, so I tried this for some relief, but it didn't have the same soothing effect as the mugwort mask I used before. 2. Lots of essence, but not very hydrating The hydration level is just... okay? Despite the abundance of essence, it doesn't feel particularly moisturizing.
TipInstead of applying the mask right after cleansing, I put on a light layer of toner first. It seems to enhance the moisturizing effect.
