It's perfect for the chilly weather we're having lately, offering abundant hydration that I absolutely love. Sometimes, deeply moisturizing products can leave a heavy residue if not absorbed well, making skin feel stuffy. However, the Aerial's Nap Calming Balm, despite its rich texture, melts into the skin upon contact with body heat, leaving no uncomfortable feeling. After applying it generously before bed, I wake up to incredibly soft and smooth skin - it's amazing! The packaging is also a vibrant blue color that's totally Instagram-worthy and collectible. Even the box is surprisingly beautiful! It's great for soothing and moisturizing, helping to alleviate redness and blemish marks.
ConsIf I had to point out one drawback, it would be the metal tube packaging. While it looks stylish and pretty, it can be a bit tricky to use. The sides can easily split open and the tube can get sharply creased. Once it's creased, it's hard to smooth out, so you need to handle it carefully.

Usually, my face gets dry and tight this time of year, but after applying this as the final step in my nighttime routine, I woke up with no tightness at all! I love how it leaves my skin feeling soft and velvety, rather than greasy or shiny. Texture: Despite its rich consistency, it's not sticky at all and provides just the right amount of hydration. During seasonal changes, layering products can sometimes feel heavy, but this Calming Balm doesn't feel suffocating at all! Scent: It's fragrance-free! As someone who dislikes the typical cosmetic scent, I'm extremely satisfied with this. Packaging: The blue and white packaging is absolutely gorgeous! The included stickers are adorable too! The aesthetically pleasing design makes me want to reach for it again and again.
ConsApplication Experience: One downside is that it might not provide enough hydration for those with dry or combination dehydrated skin. In the dead of winter, I'd recommend using it alongside a hydrating moisturizer. Blemish Improvement: I'm not sure about its effectiveness in improving blemishes. However, it didn't cause any breakouts when I used it. Tube Design: I'm not sure if it's just me, but the tube cap is quite stiff and difficult to open.
TipPro Tip: My usual nighttime routine was toner pad, serum, then moisturizer, which got me through summer. But as the seasons changed and my skin started feeling tight, I added this Calming Balm as a final step. It's definitely reduced morning tightness and seems to help my makeup apply more smoothly!

It was great to wake up with skin that wasn't dry and felt soothed. Thick consistency but absorbs well: - When applied, it has a thicker texture compared to other calming balms, but it spreads easily in a thin layer and feels smooth! Effective for skin soothing: - With the changing seasons, my skin has been acting up, but after using this calming balm, I noticed it calmed down much faster! They say it's a soothing product for divers, and it truly had a remarkable effect on calming my skin.
ConsA perfect product with no notable drawbacks: - Often when using calming balms, you might find them too heavy or have some disappointments, but with the Nautically Calming Balm, I found myself reaching for it frequently without any particular downsides.
TipUse vitamin C serum before applying the calming balm.

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.ProsHere's a review from The Hwahae Testers! Skin type: Extremely dry in winter, combination dehydrated skin in other seasons. I have thin, super sensitive skin. Product review: First off, true to its night care/winter cream nature, the hydration is incredible! The texture is quite rich. Because of this, I initially thought it might not tackle deep dryness. However, as others mentioned, when applied in a thin layer and layered on particularly dry areas, the moisturizing effect lasted surprisingly well on my face. If you properly hydrate in the previous skincare steps, deep dryness shouldn't be an issue. Usually, highly moisturizing products tend to leave an oily finish, often resulting in visible oil slicks later. But this product has an amazing finish. It applies smoothly and leaves your skin feeling just perfectly supple. It absolutely doesn't leave a greasy sheen. This was my favorite aspect. Also, living up to its soothing claims, it was suitable even for sensitive skin. When I started using this product, my skin was a bit irritated, but I felt a significant calming effect after applying it. It's not greasy at all, so it didn't exacerbate my blemishes either. Overall, I was very satisfied with this product. I would definitely repurchase!
ConsTo be honest, I didn't really find any downsides. Though it might be a bit heavy for use in the peak of summer!
TipIt's best to apply a thin layer all over and then layer it on dry areas for optimal results.

ConsFor my combination dehydrated skin, it still feels a bit heavy, so I think it'll be better suited for late autumn to winter use
TipIt works wonders when applied like petroleum jelly on areas needing extra moisture, such as elbows or knees The hydrating effect is truly remarkable

They recommended a medical-grade acne-soothing cream to apply before bed. When I used it, I could really feel my skin becoming clearer. Its thick texture made it perfect for nighttime use. As soon as I tried this product, I noticed similarities to that acne cream - the rich consistency and nighttime application. And I found it to be just as effective!
ConsThe scent was a bit disappointing. However, I think it's something you could get used to over time.
TipBe careful not to apply too thick a layer, as it might cause blemishes to appear the next day. Instead, try layering it on gradually, allowing each layer to absorb well. This method can help you achieve that coveted Inner Glow.

Scent: It's fragrance-free, so it's not overwhelming at all. Feel: I didn't notice any stickiness, and it seems to be a product with excellent hydration. Even though I used it in summer, it didn't feel heavy at all, and I loved that it wasn't sticky! On a day when my skin was super sensitive, I applied this once, and the next day I could feel my skin had calmed down. Overall review: Even though I used it in summer, the texture isn't heavy and doesn't feel sticky, making it a great product for a daily night routine!
ConsSince it's fragrance-free, those who dislike the characteristic scent of unscented products might find it a bit disappointing!
TipI recommend just applying this balm alone before bed, as it takes care of your skin with just one product, so you don't need to layer multiple items!

It's great for hydration and perfect for dry skin during seasonal changes or winter, acting like a protective barrier for your skincare! What I loved most was that it didn't have that unpleasant scent some balm-type products can have, making the application process comfortable. The texture is richer than a typical cream, but it doesn't feel heavy when spread out. Surprisingly, it applies quite transparently and spreads easily. After some time, you can definitely feel your skin becoming more supple and moisturized. I have oily skin overall, but my cheeks are the least oily area. When applied to my cheeks, it felt heavy at first, but gradually absorbed over time. After about five minutes, it settled nicely - quite refreshing for a balm on oily skin!
ConsIf only I didn't have oily skin, I think I would have loved using this product! While I appreciate its quality and gave it 4 stars, I have to admit it wasn't the best match for my skin type. For oily skin, especially in the current season, it felt too heavy and rich. Since I tend to produce oil all over my face, this was particularly noticeable. The rich texture made me a bit worried about potential blemishes, although I didn't actually see any noticeable breakouts after using it.

It reminded me of the cream found in Cetaphil's tub packaging. Check out the photos to get a better idea of the consistency. 🌟 Scent: It's practically fragrance-free, which is great for those sensitive to scents. 🌟 Packaging: While I believe it used to come in a metal container, the product I received was in plastic packaging. The soft tube makes it easy to squeeze out just the right amount, and its ointment-like design allows you to stand it upright, making it convenient to use until the very last drop! 🌟 Effectiveness: This is likely what most readers are curious about. Following the product instructions, I applied it generously like a mask. While I couldn't test its soothing effects on active blemishes (as I didn't have any at the time), I noticed impressive results the next day. Even after a light cleanse, my skin retained its moisture, and my makeup application looked flawless. It's clear that this product excels in hydration!
ConsAs a reviewer with combination dehydrated skin (oily T-zone, dry U-zone), I used this product after layering toner and applying serum. ‼️ Texture: If you've never used a balm before, you might find it a bit heavy. The formula is somewhat firm, which could feel a bit clumpy when applied. ‼️ Price: At 32,000 won for 60mL, some might find it a bit pricey compared to other skincare basics.
TipAs a reviewer with combination dehydrated skin (oily T-zone, dry U-zone), I used this product after layering toner and applying serum. 🍯 For those worried about the heavy texture, try mixing it with a lighter emulsion/cream or serum! Blending a generous amount of the balm with a serum or lightweight emulsion can make it easier to apply. This versatility allows you to create your own custom sleeping pack with your desired properties. 🍯 This product is excellent for repairing the skin barrier. Its hydrating properties make it perfect for use after exfoliation, deep cleansing, or when your skin needs extra moisture. Apply a thick layer over your hydrating/calming toner and serum for noticeable results the next day! 🍯 With its gentle ingredients and immediate visible effects, it's clear why this product is so effective. I definitely plan to repurchase it in the future!

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.ProsUsage experience: The scent is barely noticeable, making it comfortable for those with sensitive skin. Rather than feeling excessively oily, it melts into the skin, providing a moisturizing sensation that helps retain hydration. The texture isn't too heavy, but it's not lightweight either, making it more suitable for nighttime use rather than daily wear. Texture: Initially, the consistency is moderately rich, but it melts and absorbs smoothly into the skin. Usage period: I used it for about 10 days, applying it every night before bed. Impressions: Overall, this product seems well-suited for those with sensitive combination dehydrated skin or dry skin types. As someone with sensitive, dry skin, I've found that emulsions or creams that are too oily or fail to provide sufficient hydration often cause blemishes or tightness the next day. While using this product, I didn't experience any blemishes, and my skin felt well-protected and adequately moisturized the following morning, making it an excellent choice for nighttime use.
ConsIt might be a bit too rich for daily use. While those with extremely dry skin might be able to use it daily, I'd recommend nighttime application for those who tend to get oily skin. It may be challenging to use during summer. Applying it on hot, humid summer days could make your skin feel heavy and overly oily.
TipApply it before bed, then the next morning, cleanse with water only and follow up with a light emulsion. Your skin will feel soft and have a beautiful glow.
