It has a typical soothing gel feel, easy to apply lightly, and absorbs quickly into the skin. There's a slight residual feeling, but it disappears over time. It's especially great when you have skin heat while doing makeup. Foundation doesn't adhere well with heated skin, so I cool my skin with this soothing gel, apply another layer of moisturizer, and then do my makeup. The result is flawless skin makeup. Nothing beats this soothing gel for reducing facial heat. It's a bit dry to use alone in winter, so I followed up with an oil or another moisturizer. It would be perfect to use on its own in spring and summer. In fall and winter, I'd recommend using it with other hydrating products. This soothing cream is truly a year-round staple.
ConsThe quantity is small for the price. Being a gel type, it can be drying. Except for summer, you need to use it with an oil or another moisturizer. If that's the case, it might be better to mix a cheaper gel cream with other functional products.

The formula contains plant-derived ingredients, giving it a transparent blue tint like an aloe gel. It's a lightweight soothing cream that absorbs quickly and leaves a fresh finish. I love that it doesn't pill like some typical soothing creams. It seems perfect as a cooling cream to reduce facial heat in summer. As someone with oily skin, I find it sufficient even in winter. The tube packaging makes it hygienic to use. It feels more like applying a light serum than a cream, which makes it easy to use consistently due to its excellent absorption.
ConsThe scent, while I can't pinpoint exactly what it is, has an artificial quality that might be polarizing for some users. It may not provide enough hydration for use in winter. I wouldn't recommend it for those with dry skin during colder months - you might need to layer it with a richer cream for adequate moisture.

Finish: It applies like a lightweight gel cream without any stickiness. 2. Hydration: It's not heavy, and after application, you can feel the moisture infusion as if you've just done a sheet mask.
ConsAs it's a light hydrating gel cream, using it alone might not provide enough moisturization. It's best paired with a nourishing cream or the Difference Melting Cream to fill in any gaps in hydration. Unfortunately, the price point isn't exactly budget-friendly.
TipFor an extra boost of hydration and Inner Glow, try mixing it with a few drops of facial oil or layering another cream on top immediately after application.

As you can see in the photo, the formula is clear and transparent, absorbs well, and leaves the skin feeling fresh and matte! The blue cream seems to have a soothing effect on the skin, so I've been applying it regularly. Despite how lightly it goes on, almost like water, it's great at providing hydration.
ConsSince I have dry skin, I need to layer it with a more rich product in the dead of winter, but it should work well on its own during summer.
TipIf you have dry skin, applying this product after your moisturizer allows the hydration to penetrate, leaving your skin plump and bouncy!

Cons- The color is somewhere between blue and purple, which might be off-putting for some as it's unusual for a skincare product. It feels a bit artificial. - Being a gel, you need to use quite a bit, but the bottle is on the smaller side.
TipI mixed it with my foundation and loved the cooling effect and added hydration it provided.

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.ProsI was lucky enough to be chosen as one of The Hwahae Testers and used this product every morning and evening. It's a transparent gel cream in a blue tube, similar to blue aloe vera gel. I was surprised by its vivid blue color! It absorbs well, providing a pleasant cooling effect when applied. There's absolutely no stickiness, and it has a great soothing effect. It's incredibly lightweight - I could apply multiple layers without it feeling heavy. I highly recommend this for summer use!
ConsMy skin tends to become dry in winter, so I usually avoid gel-type products in fall and winter. As expected, this gel-type cream left my skin extremely dry. I tried layering it multiple times, applying it thickly, and even using it after serum, but nothing helped. When I applied it before my 8 PM shift, my face started feeling tight around 11 PM. The effect came on quite quickly, and my face hurt terribly due to the tightness. I might cautiously recommend this to those with very oily skin in autumn and winter, but I can't recommend it for people with dry skin. Although it's called 'Repair' in the name, it doesn't seem to have much repairing function.
TipI ended up mixing it with a bit of another cream to create the right level of richness for my skin. For those with dry skin, I recommend adding a drop of facial oil or mixing it with a richer cream.

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.ProsI was lucky enough to try this product after winning it. My skin type is oily-leaning combination dehydrated skin. The packaging is a pretty blue color. As for the feel, true to its name as a hydrating cream, it has almost no rich feeling at all. After applying, in about 3 to 5 minutes, it absorbs well and leaves the skin feeling fresh. For someone like me with oily-leaning combination dehydrated skin, it's a good product, but it can be a bit drying. The texture is close to a gel. It's extremely lightweight, which isn't ideal for this time of year. If it's this drying for me with my skin type, I think other skin types absolutely wouldn't be able to use it. It would probably be great for light use in summer.
ConsIt's far too lightweight. It's unfortunate that it doesn't suit the current season. Everything else is fine.

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.ProsI have combination skin that's been dealing with some pesky blemishes lately. At work, I'm constantly exposed to electronic devices and UV rays, which cause my skin to produce excess oil. That's why I always wash my face during lunch break! This product was perfect to apply right after. It doesn't make my skin too oily, replenishes moisture, and when my skin feels dry, I can reapply after cleansing. At night, it's a bit light, so I add a small amount of a richer cream. This product is great overall, but in winter I can't use it before makeup. Instead, it's perfect for removing my base makeup before touch-ups on days I wear makeup!
ConsThe one downside is that it stung when I applied it to areas where I had popped blemishes without thinking.
TipI layer this product by applying it over my toner and cream, adding thin layers whenever my skin feels dry. The office heating is really dehydrating, but this method keeps my skin more hydrated than oily, preventing clogged pores. The photos show the texture, how it looks right after application, and after absorption!

Being a gel, it's definitely better suited for summer than winter. The scent is barely noticeable, almost fragrance-free. I didn't experience any blemishes, itching, or inflammation after using it - which made me even more satisfied! I really dislike when products leave a sticky residue or feel like they're just sitting on top of my skin, but this one absorbs quickly even with a light application. It's fantastic!
ConsFor a moisturizer, it's quite lightweight, so those with dry skin might prefer something more intense. I had the chance to try the Melting Cream from the same line when I received this product, and I'd recommend that over the Soothing Cream for those with dry skin!
TipI found it paired perfectly with a slightly richer serum! Applying a generous amount before bed kept my skin hydrated until morning, which is ideal for these dry days we're having.

It has a lightweight yet incredibly hydrating texture that absorbs effortlessly into the skin. It feels like applying a water jelly to your face. As someone who works out frequently, I found this cream to be excellent for managing enlarged pores and reducing heat in my skin post-exercise. It quickly calms any redness and gives a sensation of tightening open pores. I plan to continue using this regardless of the season, especially after workouts and during the hot summer months when my skin feels heated.
ConsI couldn't find any downsides to this product. However, if you have dry skin, I'd recommend it more for summer use than winter!
TipTo maintain clear pores, try to avoid wearing makeup before working out. After exercise, to soothe your skin and manage pores, apply a light serum followed by the Phycore Differin-C Soothing Cream. This routine can help reduce blemishes.
