The scent is also pleasant, making it suitable for anyone to use! I checked the moisture levels before and after using the product, as well as compared it to another brand's skin booster. The Primejinseng product showed about a 30% higher moisture content, indicating just how hydrating it is!
ConsThe price is a bit disappointing, given the great ingredients. It might be difficult to purchase unless it's on sale. The consumer price seems a bit high, though the quality ingredients justify the cost. For dry skin, it would be better to apply an additional layer. It works well enough on its own in spring or summer, but may not be sufficient during other seasons. Lastly, the product leaves a slight glow, which could be a concern when applying sunscreen right after.
TipKeep it in the bathroom and apply it right after cleansing! My personal tip is to mix it with a skin booster and facial oil - this provides the ultimate hydration for dry or winter skin! While using facial oil alone can sometimes feel heavy, combining it with a skin booster prevents that heavy, greasy sensation.

It was not sticky and provided good moisturization.
ConsI have sensitive skin, but I haven't experienced any issues so far. If any problems arise with prolonged use, I will make adjustments accordingly.

The pump packaging was hygienic, and the translucent brown bottle made it easy to see how much product was left. The texture was slightly more viscous than a water-based toner, with a thin serum-like consistency that needed to be quickly applied as it tended to run down. When applied, it absorbed smoothly without any stickiness, and my skin felt comfortably hydrated without feeling heavy, even when I used a generous amount. It also worked well as a sheet mask when I soaked a cotton pad with it. As someone sensitive to fragrance, I appreciated that the Prime Ginseng Skin Booster had a very subtle, almost unscented profile.
ConsSince I was satisfied with the product, there are no major downsides to it. The only thing is that the price may be a bit high.
TipFor best results, don't just apply it once, but layer it on or use it as a sheet mask - this will give you an even more intensely hydrated complexion.😄😄

I've been using it for about 7 days. My skin type is dry and oily, and I don't have any trouble, but my skin is sensitive to irritation! When I first pumped the product, I thought it might feel a bit sticky, as the color was a light honey tone. But after actually using it, the absorption was complete, and there was no stickiness at all~ As it's a skin booster, it doesn't feel extremely moisturizing, but it absorbs refreshingly. It should be used as the first step in your regular skincare routine, followed by your usual basic care. There's no trouble, and the usage experience is good.
ConsI'm satisfied with the usage experience and was able to use it without any trouble, but it didn't really wow me. This is an honest evaluation (subjective, but a sincere opinion). There's no particular reason to recommend it, but also no reason not to, it's a fairly average product.

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.Pros✔️ Although I prefer a watery type of formula over a runny one, I don't usually use skin boosters. But this product has a runny formula, which I liked. ✔️ I thought the product would have a strong herbal scent since it's an oriental medicine product, but it actually has almost no fragrance. ✔️ Despite having a runny formula, it doesn't feel sticky and absorbs completely in one application. Runny formulas are usually quite sticky, and skin-type products have no stickiness but can feel drying, but this product has a formula, texture, and dryness that I'm really satisfied with. ✔️ During seasonal changes, my skin becomes sensitive and extremely dry, so I'm very particular about my skincare routine. But after using this product, my skincare steps have decreased.
Cons✔️ There's nothing disappointing about this product. When I first used it, the absorption was so good that I felt like I hadn't applied enough, so I ended up applying it multiple times, but that wasn't necessary!
Tip✔️ After cleansing, I apply it all over my face. I also use it as a soothing mask when my skin needs calming or feels very dry - it's the best! :-)

I applied to the event and was selected, and I've been using it well. I used it right away and it's been almost 2 weeks now. I was surprised that I could feel the glow from just one use, and as I continued using it, I found that it absorbs quickly without any oiliness or stickiness, so it's great to use as the first step.
ConsIt's not so much disappointing as it is different from what I expected - the texture. It's not a spray type, and while it has a slight viscosity, it kind of drips down your face when you pump it on. It's not quite as sticky as hyaluronic acid skin, either. The texture itself is actually good as the first step, since it's lightweight and oil-free, but if I got careless and skipped my usual serum or cream after using this product, I would feel a drying, oily residue on my face in the morning.
TipThis is a product that adds glow to dull skin when used in addition to your regular skincare routine. It absorbs quickly without needing to pat it in, so it's a great skin booster. But don't skip the next steps in your routine - keep using it along with the rest of your regimen.

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.ProsSince it's a skin booster, I kept it in the bathroom and used it right after cleansing. Using it immediately after cleansing, my dry skin didn't feel tight and I got a nicely moisturized feeling, which was perfect. It doesn't feel sticky at all and gets absorbed right away, leaving a just-right moisturized feeling. I can layer it multiple times without any stickiness. Especially since it contains ginseng, I expected a certain scent, but there's no such scent at all, which is good. Even though I have dry skin, I tend to avoid sticky products in the summer, cutting back on my usual fall/winter skincare. But this one seems suitable for summer use as well.
ConsI haven't found any disappointing aspects so far. The texture is not a runny, watery type, but more like a serum, so it doesn't drip or fall off when applying.
TipI think it would also work well as a sheet mask, applied to a cotton pad, especially during the winter or when my skin feels very dry.

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.Pros👉🏻 Hwahae Trial Reviewer Review (10-day Experience) 👈🏻 ▫️Texture: Transparent brown + watery essence-like ▫️Fragrance: Although the packaging mentions ginseng exosome, the scent is very subtle and close to fragrance-free, so there's no strong likes or dislikes. ▫️Usage: As a skin booster, it absorbs quickly without stickiness after application on cleansed skin, leaving a moisturized finish. ▫️Recommended Skin Type: The refreshing and clean finish makes it suitable for all skin types to use as the first step after cleansing. As someone with oily/blemish-prone skin, I tend to be sensitive when trying new products, but the Prime Ginseng Skin Booster felt soothing like a toner when applied generously on a cotton pad or patted in with hands. I didn't experience any irritation or breakouts.
ConsThere's really nothing disappointing about this product. It faithfully fulfills the role of a 'skin booster'.
TipI also tried the high-concentration fermented serum and the highly moisturizing fermented cream samples as a 3-step routine in the evenings, and even though the fermented cream had a balm-like texture, it didn't cause any blemishes. Particularly, when I had some product left over, I would apply it to itchy areas on my arms or legs, and it helped soothe and relieve the dryness-induced itchiness without any issues.

The herbal color makes it seem like it would be good for the skin ㅋㅋㅋ (The ingredients show that fermented ginseng root extract is one of the key ingredients in Praimjinseng) ✔️Fragrance: Almost no fragrance (The product has very little artificial fragrance.) ✔️If you prefer a non-sticky, oil-free product, I recommend this! ✔️My skin type is oily & sensitive I usually only use products I've been using for a long time, as my skin is quite sensitive, but I received this as a Hwahae Trial Reviewer and have been using it for about a week. It's a refreshing and suitable texture for my oily skin, just as the weather is getting warmer.
ConsThe absorption is extremely strong, so you may need to use it several times. If you want a moisturizing, oily product, then no!! It absolutely does not cause any breakouts... So, there are actually not many downsides.
TipThe texture is similar to a soothing gel. You can use it by gently patting it with your hands, or use it like a toner on the skin surface with a cotton pad!! I'm lucky to have received this good product as a Hwahae Trial Reviewer, and my sister and I have been using it consistently ㅎㅎ
