Pros
This is a rich, creamy balm-type product with a dense, velvety texture, unlike regular creams. It's a great moisturizing product to use in the chilly weather these days. Some highly moisturizing products can leave a heavy, sticky residue on the skin if not absorbed well, but the Aerials Snap Calming Balm absorbs smoothly into the skin upon contact with body heat, without leaving a heavy, stuffy feeling. After applying a generous amount and waking up the next morning, my skin felt incredibly soft and smooth. The packaging is also aesthetically pleasing, with a vibrant blue color that makes it a great collector's item. The box is so beautifully designed as well. This product not only provides great hydration but also has a soothing effect, helping to calm redness and reduce the appearance of blemishes.
Cons
One downside is that the product is packaged in a metal tube. While it is aesthetically pleasing and beautiful, it was difficult to use! The sides would easily tear and it would become sharply crumpled. Once it's crumpled, it's hard to restore, so you have to be careful when handling it.😂😂

Pros
💙 Usage Experience I used the product during the cool autumn weather recently, and my face tends to get dry and taut around this time of year. But when I applied it as the last step of my nighttime skincare routine and went to bed, my face felt great in the morning - no tightness at all! After application, it left a soft, supple feeling rather than an oily, shiny one, which I really enjoyed!❤️ 💙 Texture The texture is quite dense, but it doesn't feel sticky or overly dry. Even during this transitional season when my skin can feel suffocated from layering various products, the Calming Balm didn't have that heavy, stuffy sensation. 💙 Fragrance It's fragrance-free!! As someone who dislikes the typical fragrance of cosmetics, I'm very satisfied with this.🫶🫶 💙 Packaging The blue and white packaging is so pretty! The stickers included are also really cute. The overall aesthetic is so on-point, I can't help but reach for it!
Cons
🖤 Usage Experience The only downside to the usage experience is that it doesn't have an abundance of moisture, so those with dry or dehydrated skin may feel a bit dry after application. In the dead of winter, I'd recommend pairing it with an additional moisturizer. 🖤 Breakouts I'm not sure about its effectiveness in improving blemishes - I didn't experience any new breakouts after using it. 🖤 Tube Design Maybe it's just me, but I find the tube cap to be quite stiff and difficult to open.
Tip
🍯 Pro Tip I used to do a pad-serum-cream routine to get through the summer, but as the transitional season approached and my face started feeling tight, I've been applying the Calming Balm as the last step in my nighttime routine lately. I've noticed my face feels less tight in the morning, and my makeup applies better as well!ㅎㅎ

Pros
This is a Hwahae Trial Reviewer review! Skin Type: Extremely dry in the winter, but combination skin the rest of the year. My skin is very thin and extremely sensitive. Product Review: First of all, as a night care/winter cream, the moisturizing effect is amazing! This product has a very dense texture. That's why I thought it might not be able to tackle my inner dryness. But as others mentioned, if you apply it thinly and layer it on the drier areas, the moisture lasts on your face. If you properly hydrate in the previous step, the inner dryness won't be much of an issue. And usually products with great moisturizing properties tend to have an oily finish, where you can see the oil floating on top later on. But this product has an amazing finish. It applies smoothly and softly, and maintains that soft finish even after application. It never feels greasy or shiny. This was the best part for me. I've attached a photo of the product texture. Also, as a soothing cream, I was able to use it on my sensitive skin. When I first started using this, my skin was a bit irritated, but after applying this, I felt a lot of soothing. It didn't make my skin oily at all, and my breakouts didn't worsen either. Overall, I was very satisfied with this product. I would repurchase it!
Cons
To be honest, I don't really have any major downsides. But it might be a bit heavy to use in the middle of summer!
Tip
It works best if you apply a thin layer all over and then layer it on the drier areas.

Pros
"It is very effective for skin damaged by UV rays" ✔️Fragrance-free product I'm a sensitive person who suffers from headaches, so I'm very sensitive to the scent of cosmetics, but the Calming Balm has no smell at all (recommended for those with morning sickness☺️) ✔️Application I thought the Calming Balm would have a thick texture, but it was closer to a moisturizing cream! I have combination skin that is very sensitive, and in the transitional seasons & winter, my skin gets dry and flaky.. The product was recommended as a night care, but for dry skin types, it can also be used as a light cream before makeup. ✔️Skin Barrier Improvement My skin barrier was damaged from misusing a peeling gel, leaving my skin blotchy and irritated. But after applying a thick layer (the size of a 10-won coin) for about 3 days and sleeping with it, I saw an improvement in my damaged skin barrier.
Cons
✔️Soothing Effect.. The soothing effect, which I had expected the most, was not as effective as I had hoped..ㅠ It did help reduce the heat sensation in my skin, but it did not have a significant effect on redness and skin irritation. I would not recommend this to those looking for a restorative cream. ✔️Moisturizing As a night cream, I didn't feel it was very moisturizing. I would recommend it in the summer, but in the winter, the moisturizing effect is lacking. It feels more like it's creating a barrier on the skin's surface rather than deeply hydrating it.
Tip
🍀Try mixing it with madecassoside powder! Improved skin barrier + Soothing troubled skin = Excellent skin condition

Pros
I've always wanted to try this product, so I've been applying it diligently for 2 weeks! 😎❤️‍🔥 ☁️Texture: It's a balm type, but it's very moisturizing and hydrating! Even though it's a night care product, I usually don't reach for creamy products in the summer because they can feel sticky, but the Calming Balm didn't feel sticky at all and absorbed easily, even when I applied multiple layers. ☁️Fragrance: It's completely fragrance-free, so I think even those sensitive to scents can use it without any issues! ☁️What I particularly liked: When I applied it, it felt very hydrating, so I thought it was just adding moisture. But when I woke up in the morning, my skin felt so plump and bouncy. My makeup also applied really well on top of it. ,,ㅎㅎ♡
Cons
I didn't feel any major discomfort, but I did feel a slight warming sensation right after applying it. But I think this could be individual differences. Maybe it's because it's summer? 🥲
Tip
If you use it together with an essence or toner containing hyaluronic acid, you can get the benefits of hydration, soothing, and elasticity. I tried it that way and really liked the results..~🤗👍🏻

Pros
- Maintains moisture better than other moisturizers - Has an oily texture rather than a thick, greasy one - Leaves skin feeling hydrated even after wearing it overnight
Cons
It still feels a bit heavy on my dry skin, so I think it will work better for me in late fall and winter
Tip
It works great as a moisturizing balm for dry areas like elbows and knees, just like Vaseline 🍯

Pros
🦋Texture The texture is very creamy and moisturizing. It's not too heavy or too light, somewhere in between a moisturizing cream and a night cream. 🦋Fragrance The fragrance is almost unscented! So it should be suitable for those sensitive to fragrance. 🦋Hydration It's very moisturizing, and there's also a bit of oil content. Even though I have combination skin with occasional dryness, I didn't find it too heavy when applying it. In fact, it helped address the dryness nicely!! 🦋Packaging The packaging is very convenient. It's in a plastic(?) container, and you just need to press down to dispense the product, similar to toothpaste. This makes it easy to control the amount and the application is quite similar to using toothpaste, except for the material. 🦋Soothing I didn't notice any dramatic effects, but the next morning after using it, my skin felt really nice and refreshed. It had a sense of being well-organized, if that makes sense. It seemed to work well for me. 🦋Sensitivity The product feels quite basic and gentle, so I found it to be mild on my skin.
Cons
There weren't any major downsides, but if you have oily skin, you might want to consider it carefully! In terms of nourishment, it didn't have a highly concentrated feel. If you're expecting that kind of rich, nourishing sensation, this cream might feel a bit more refreshing.
Tip
I applied it in the order of toner-essence-calming balm after thorough cleansing. It felt very moisturizing, and my skin was able to absorb the moisture well, leaving it feeling firm and plump.

Pros
The cream is suitable for oily skin. I saw an advertisement that said the night cream is good for dry skin, but I felt that this cream can also be used sufficiently by those with combination/oily skin during seasonal changes and winter! The texture is not as thick as a typical night cream, but somewhere in between a cream and a night cream? So it worked well for me, who has combination skin. As the name suggests, it definitely helped with calming, and being a night cream, the moisturizing power was also high. The particularly good point was that it didn't feel sticky or too heavy, yet it deeply moisturized my skin. At first, I only used it at night because it's a night cream, but lately I've been applying it thinly in the morning as well, and it seems to work even better. In fact, I would recommend this to those with combination skin for the fall and winter seasons!
Cons
The amount is a bit small..! It might be too drying for those with extremely dry skin
Tip
Adding Madecassoside powder when applying doubles the soothing effect!!!

Pros
Although I thought of a thick ointment-type product because the name is 'Night', it turns out to be incredibly soft and lightweight! It absorbs refreshingly and feels smooth without any stickiness! It's lightweight yet moisturizing, and not heavy at all, so it absorbs gently. It's fragrance-free, and you don't feel dryness even after just applying the skin toner.
Cons
It may feel a bit dry with just one application, so it's better to apply it twice. There's really no major downside.
Tip
If you have very dry skin, applying a product with oils as the last step would be even better.

Pros
The texture is slightly dense, like night cream! It's fragrance-free, so there's no burden. I didn't feel any stickiness at all, and it seems to be a highly moisturizing product. I used it in the summer, but it didn't feel heavy or sticky at all, which was great! I applied it on a day when my skin was sensitive, and I could feel my skin calming down the next day. Overall review: Even though I used it in the summer, the texture wasn't heavy, and it wasn't sticky, so I think it's a good product to use as a daily night routine.
Cons
Those who dislike the unique scent of fragrance-free products may be disappointed.
Tip
I recommend just applying this one cream and going to sleep, as it can take care of your skin all by itself!
