The fragrance is not as strong as expected, and the formulation is appropriately lightweight, allowing for quick absorption. While there are no noticeable effects yet, the product has good moisturizing properties, so I am using it as part of my nighttime care routine.
Cons
The effect seems too negligible compared to the malicious price. At this price range, there should be visible changes within a week, don't you think? haha...

Sulwhasoo Yunjung is a really recommended basic item that can be used for more than 5 years. When your skin looks unusually dull and the skin texture is not great, applying it results in an immediate effect the next day. The next day, you can feel a surge of moisture, and this is not just a surface-level moisture but a deep, penetrating moisture that you can feel. The formula is slightly watery, so it absorbs into the skin immediately upon application, and the spreadability is also excellent. True to Sulwhasoo, it has a subtle oriental fragrance that may divide opinions, but it is a product that is good enough to overcome that.
Cons
The only downside is the high price range, but aside from the fragrance, there are no other issues.

It was my mom's gentle and good cosmetics, but now I've become old enough to use them.
Cons
There's really nothing disappointing, so why are they forcing me to make something up?

The product had a luxurious and smooth application, and the fragrance was pleasant. It had excellent absorbency. Even though I have sensitive skin, there were no special issues with my skin.
Cons
There is no particular regret, but since it is Hwahae, it would be good to add a moisturizing cream or serum to enhance the moisture and softness.

This is a booster-type essence used in the first step of skincare. It has a transparent and slightly watery texture that adheres to the skin and absorbs quickly when applied. Using it in the first step enhances the absorption of the following skincare products. With prolonged use, the skin texture becomes smoother and more radiant. It has a strong ginseng scent that may be overwhelming for those sensitive to fragrance at first.
Cons
I prefer fragrance-free products, so when I first encountered the ginseng scent in cosmetics, it was quite difficult for me to get used to it. ㅜㅋㅋㅋ
Tip
Before makeup or before skincare, this product is great to use anywhere❤️

Red ginseng and oriental herbal extracts are included, which help improve skin elasticity and radiance, and strengthen the skin barrier.
Cons
Due to the high price range, it may be burdensome for continuous use, and the fragrance may be perceived as strong by those sensitive to scents.
Tip
After cleansing, using this product in the first step enhances the absorption of the next step's products.

The texture is a slightly viscous, smoothly flowing form with a yellowish, opaque appearance. When applied, it is soft and incredibly moisturizing, with a fragrant floral scent and a subtle, pleasant oriental aroma. As soon as it is applied and gently massaged, it is quickly absorbed without any heavy residue or sticky feeling, leaving the skin fully hydrated and immediately relieved of dryness. On dry, autumnal or wintry days, an additional application of this Hwahae Essence can easily withstand the cold, dry weather. As an essence that revitalizes the skin's natural health, using the Hwahae Essence leaves the skin deeply moisturized the next day, and the natural radiance of the skin becomes more transparent, improving skin texture. It strengthens the skin barrier and provides anti-aging benefits, making the skin feel firmer, while also improving internal dryness and diminishing fine lines. With consistent use of the Hwahae Essence, concerns such as fine wrinkles, skin texture, and dull skin tone can gradually improve.
Cons
The price range is high, so it is not easy to acquire, but I have made up my mind to do it.

I'm still using it. I'm satisfied and feel good, and it's also good for my skin, so there's no trouble.
Cons
There is the issue of it being expensive, but I would like to switch.

I've been using it for two bottles already based on my friend's recommendation. It definitely seems like my skin barrier has improved, as my flushing has become much lighter! And while my face used to be sensitive, the sensitivity has also reduced a lot after about a month.
Cons
The only downside is that the price range is a bit high, so unless you purchase it at a duty-free store, it seems a bit expensive. I usually buy it at the duty-free store when I travel.

After using the Estee Lauder brown bottle for a year and being very satisfied, I was curious about Sulwhasoo, so I purchased 2 bottles at the duty-free shop. The oriental herbal scent makes me feel like it will be good for my skin. It absorbs into my skin right away. I find it a bit drying for my skin, so I'm using it as the first product I apply after cleansing. The brown bottle feels moisturizing and plumping on my skin after applying toner. It feels more long-lasting in hydration compared to the 6th generation Yunjosaeng Essence, and my skin seems to age less as a result.
Cons
It seems a bit dry to be considered an essence. It just feels like something I'm applying for nourishment. If I had to recommend one between the brown bottle and the Yoonjoeessence, I'd definitely go with the brown bottle.
