Skin type: Seborrheic dermatitis, atopic, extremely dry 1. Texture ☆☆☆☆☆ It has a hydrating feel but absorbs incredibly fast. At first, you might think it's slightly sticky, but in the time it takes to check your phone, it absorbs completely, leaving no stickiness. I loved how it finishes with a refreshing feel. Despite the light finish, there's no sensation of dryness or tightness, which is great. 2. Blemish occurrence ☆☆☆☆ No major blemishes or small bumps appeared when using this product. If you prioritize a refreshing texture and absence of blemishes, this might be worth trying.
ConsSo why only 3 stars despite these advantages? 1. Skin itchiness ☆ While it didn't cause blemishes, the applied areas became slightly itchy over time. This made me not want to touch my face, and when I did, it started to redden. 2. Next day oiliness ☆ For some reason, during the test period, I only used this product without applying any cream. Despite this, the next day my normally dry skin became oily, and my pores seemed enlarged. It wasn't a healthy glow, but rather an oily shine that made my pores look more noticeable. 3. Price ☆ As a conscientious Hwahae Tester, I have to honestly say that at this price point, I don't feel it's an irreplaceable item. These days, the cosmetics market has so many great products available. If you're concerned about pores and oiliness, I'd suggest looking at other reviews for this product before purchasing. Everyone's skin is different, after all. This is just my personal opinion and hope, but while this product feels definitely better compared to early vegan products, when considering the performance and price of vegan products in Korea, it's hard to justify a purchase based solely on being vegan when competing against non-vegan products that have nailed both quality and price. Of course, the development process and ingredient costs differ, but at this price point, there needs to be another compelling reason beyond being vegan to drive purchases.
TipThat being said, it works well with beauty devices, so I'm using it with my cooling machine.

Texture: Rich and creamy Scent: Subtle, non-intrusive fragrance
ConsThis product felt extremely sticky on my skin. It didn't absorb well and seemed to just sit on the surface. I tested it on the back of my hand first, and it remained tacky without sinking in. When I applied it around my eyes and nose, I developed blemishes on my nose. While my skin barrier is quite compromised and I react to most cosmetics, I found this formula too heavy and unsuitable for my skin.
TipThe experience may vary depending on your skin type! Since it has a rich texture, I'd recommend not applying too much at once. Try adjusting the amount gradually based on how your skin responds.

I was pleased with how gentle the ingredients in this product are. Long-lasting hydration With my combination dehydrated skin, ampoules that are mostly water tend to dry out quickly. However, this ampoule kept my skin feeling moisturized for a long time, preventing any dryness. Subtle fragrance While I'm not particularly sensitive to scents, this had a faint floral or herbal aroma. Nice touch!
ConsNot compatible with my skin The day after application, my skin felt rougher. Small bumps and minor inflammations appeared all over. Unlike the Manyo Factory ampoule, which leaves my skin soft the next day, this one left it feeling rough. I'm not sure if the ingredients didn't agree with me, but despite its other benefits, it just wasn't a good fit. After a week of use, I passed it on to a family member. (The photo shows the blemishes that appeared the very next day after application, looking just like tiny millet seeds.)
