The key for me is managing deep dryness while maintaining the oil and moisture balance. If this balance is disrupted, I immediately break out. So I often use products that provide hydration without leaving a sticky finish. I discovered TONYMOLY's skincare line when my skin was in terrible condition due to adult acne, which even led to social anxiety. It all started with their Chok Chok Green Tea Watery Cream, and I realized how effective and affordable their basic skincare products are. I've been repurchasing them ever since, making them my go-to products. Now, as a Hwahae Tester, I've completed my skincare routine with the addition of this Houttuynia Cordata cream. The main advantage is its intense hydration combined with a cooling effect. With summer approaching, I've been experiencing facial heat, but this cream instantly cools and seems to lower my skin temperature. As someone with combination dehydrated skin, even the most hydrating creams usually leave me feeling dry after a while. However, perhaps due to its unique texture, this cream's moisturizing effect lasts much longer! I'm very satisfied that I can apply it generously and use it as an overnight mask. TONYMOLY really works hard to create products I love. While I usually don't prefer jar packaging, I appreciate that this one comes with a spatula for hygienic application.
ConsIf applied thinly, you might still feel a bit of dryness, so I recommend applying a generous amount as shown in the photo. Due to its high moisture content, it may cause pilling if used before makeup, so I suggest using it at night.
TipFor an extra boost of hydration, try applying a thick layer and then adding a layer of serum on top to create a protective oil barrier. This keeps your skin moisturized until the next morning! This product is great for cooling and soothing your skin when you've been outside for a long time, exposed to sunlight, or when your skin feels hot. The clean ingredients and cooling effect help lower skin temperature and provide instant relief. Given its large volume, you could even use it on your body.

This inspired me to use it with a galvanic device for absorption, which worked wonderfully for cooling and soothing my skin. The moisturizing power might be a bit on the lighter side. However, when applied in small amounts, it leaves a barely-there, thin coating on the skin's surface. I really appreciated the fresh and lightweight finish. As for the scent, it has a cool herbal or minty fragrance. It reminded me of products used in dermatology clinics, which gave me a sense of receiving professional skincare.
ConsI've tried several creams and serums with tiny capsules before, but this is the first time I've encountered one where the particles are so noticeable and don't dissolve easily. It caught me off guard at first. I found that using a galvanic device helped to break them down, so I ended up using it like an aloe gel. Also, when I first used it, I misjudged the amount and applied too much, which led to pilling. It's crucial to be mindful of how much you're using.
TipSince it's labeled as a cooling product, I tried storing it in the refrigerator before use, and it made the experience even better!

You shouldn't apply this in multiple layers or use too much. I have combination dehydrated skin... I bought this with my own money after seeing good reviews, but... The scent is... not bad? It just takes some time to get used to. Maybe because it's not a familiar fragrance. In the end, I went back to using Torriden...
ConsIt pills... And pilling is the worst! I have combination dehydrated skin, so I usually layer my moisturizer...
TipThis review highlights the importance of finding the right product for your skin type. While the product may have good reviews, it doesn't work well for everyone, especially those with combination dehydrated skin who prefer layering their skincare. The scent, though not unpleasant, takes some getting used to. Ultimately, the reviewer returned to a trusted brand that works better for their skin.

No, really, the moisture was crazy. The next day, the glow was no joke. Even though I have really sensitive skin, it didn't turn red and stayed moisturized. And if you apply a small amount and use it up to the end, it's also nicely bouncy, so it's just an unbeatable cost-effective product.
ConsBefore applying makeup, if you don't fully blend it, it'll be slightly patchy. If you're going to use it, please use just a tiny amount!!
TipKeep refrigerated - it's perfect for the summer!

The scent is subtly pleasant, and as you apply it, the capsules burst, providing a soothing effect. During the day, I use a small amount under makeup, and at night, I apply it thickly as a sleeping pack. Great value for money!
ConsIf you apply it too thickly during the day, it can pill like dead skin cells. This is probably because it's designed to double as a sleeping pack.
TipIt's perfect for combination dehydrated skin. It locks in hydration, and being a cream, it also prevents moisture loss. It's also great for soothing blemishes.

I think I've found my holy grail product that I'll use for life.
ConsThe white granules are difficult to break down. When applied before makeup, it tends to pill a bit.
TipRub it between your hands to break down the white granules before applying to your face.

The hydration lasts for a long time without quickly disappearing. I loved how lightweight the container was, making it easy to use.
ConsIt feels a bit heavy on the skin, not light at all, which can make your skin feel slightly suffocated. The soothing effect was minimal. If you don't get the amount right, it can feel sticky and pill. Maybe due to the oil content, it doesn't seem to agree well with my skin.
TipFor the ultimate cooling effect, try keeping it in the refrigerator before use.

The texture is similar to a soothing gel. As I have extremely dry skin, I use it both morning and night. For others, it would be great as an evening skin-calming treatment! What I loved most, though this might just be me, is that when applied before base makeup, it definitely makes dead skin cells less noticeable! I didn't experience any blemishes.
ConsWhile it's probably not meant to be used before makeup, it's too hydrating to apply pre-makeup as it causes pilling. Other than that, I'm using it well.

It gives a refreshing sensation! It's also great for my combination dehydrated skin. As a hydrating cream, it really delivers a burst of moisture. The hydration is on point!
ConsWell... the scent? I'm used to houttuynia cordata products since I have blemish-prone skin, but those who haven't tried it before or are new to this line might have mixed feelings about it. Also, I'm a bit hesitant to use it in the morning. I'm not sure if it's because I rush to apply my skincare, but it seems to pill slightly and doesn't absorb as well. I recommend using it in the evening. Lastly, for hygiene reasons, I think it would be nice if it came in a tube form as well as the jar. Personally, I prefer tube packaging for skincare products.
TipI'm using it in the evening in this order: cleansing - exfoliating toner - generous amount of Houttuynia Cordata Cica Cooling Cream. I apply it thickly like a sleeping pack, and the next morning my skin feels super hydrated! It's been quite hot lately, so I've been worried about my pores and skin elasticity, but this cream gives a nice tightening sensation with its cooling effect.
