It absorbs quickly and well without feeling heavy or sticky, making it easy to apply additional layers. As soon as it's applied, it provides excellent hydration, leaving the skin feeling thoroughly moisturized. The size of the product is also quite generous, and as an unscented, non-irritating hydrating serum, it should be suitable for anyone to use.
ConsThe skin feels stiff and tight when it dries similar to toner. Applying a cream or other serum on top helps, but it doesn't seem like a good idea to use this serum as the last step. Also, the dropper can't seem to suck up any product at all, and there's a lot of leakage around the opening. It's difficult to use it cleanly.

ConsThe viscosity may cause it to thicken and get messy if it gets on the top of the bottle

It doesn't flow like water, nor is it as viscous as mucus - it's just in the perfect middle. The scent is unscented. I really liked that this is a product I can just slap on anytime, whether my skin is too sensitive and needs soothing, or I've used a lot of functional products and need a break. I usually applied it in the mornings. I didn't experience any particular breakouts or troubles. I also made the mist that came with it and sprayed it on throughout the day. It's not like a regular hydrating mist - it's much more moisturizing and nicer.
ConsThe formula isn't extremely hydrating, and now that it's winter, my skin gets really dry and dehydrated. For someone like me with dry skin, it feels like it dries up quickly after just one application. So I don't think it's enough to use on its own. I have to layer it a couple times to make it work well.
TipI use home skincare devices quite often. Rather than applying the ampoule twice and then using the device right away, I apply it once, use the device, and then apply another layer if it starts to dry up. That way, the ampoule really sinks in. I'd recommend using this serum with your home care devices if you have them!

This serum has good ingredients, including multi-hyaluronic acid, which helps retain moisture well, so it seems suitable for my dry skin. It also contains vitamin C, Herb AC Complex, Super Coix Complex, and PHA, which help soothe the skin and improve skin texture. - The formula is on the watery side, with a water-gel texture that flows easily. - It's almost fragrance-free, so anyone can use it without any aversion. - When applied, it doesn't feel sticky, and it absorbs quickly with a clean finish when patted in. - I didn't experience any noticeable breakouts while using it, so I think it's not bad at all. - It can be applied gently without any irritation, and my skin feels plump after full application.
ConsOverall, I'm satisfied! - However, my skin is generally dry, and I've been feeling particularly dehydrated lately due to the weather. The serum's watery texture is good in that it absorbs quickly, but it also means it dries out on my skin rather quickly. I can feel the dryness after just one application, so I think I would need to apply it twice to properly address the dryness. Applying it multiple times means I'll likely use up the product faster.
Tip- Personally, for fall and winter, I prefer essences or ampoules with a bit more oil content. During the colder seasons, I think it would be better to layer this product with a lotion or cream to better address the dryness. This product seems more suitable for me to use lightly in spring and summer.

Even though I have sensitive skin, I didn't experience any skin troubles. In fact, it seems to have helped with my existing small blemishes and acne. This is just my personal opinion, but...
ConsWhen it dries, it leaves a slightly drying feeling. So I've been carefully applying oil or cream on top of it.
TipThey kindly included purified water and a spray bottle, so I've been making a toner mist with it. I've also been soaking cotton pads in it and using it as a makeshift face mask.

It's a gentle, fragrance-free, and transparent serum with a high concentration of moisturizing and hydrating ingredients. With its lightweight texture, it's suitable for my combination skin type without feeling sticky. Despite the high concentration, the good absorption leaves a subtle dewy glow after a few applications. This product can be recommended as an additional step for those with oily skin and frequent facial flushing, as it helps replenish moisture without feeling heavy. The Hwahae Trial Reviewer also provided purified water, so I tried making a facial mist by mixing the serum and water in a 1:4 ratio, which turned out to be a nice toner-like product with good hydration.
Cons- Dry skin types may need an additional moisturizer While this is a good hydrating product, for dry skin types, it may be better to use it as an additional step and apply a separate moisturizer as well. Even though the absorption is good, some users have reported a drying sensation on the surface of the skin.
TipUsing it as a facial mist is definitely effective for providing hydration on the go. And if you layer and apply it multiple times, it leaves a subtle dewy glow. Since the absorption is quick, you can just wait a little and apply it again. Spending a bit of time to apply it in multiple layers can be beneficial.

I got a similar image to the usage experience. The Hwahae Trial Reviewer package included a small empty bottle along with a letter, which was a nice touch.🥰 - Texture: A runny, slightly viscous formula that felt refreshing. - Fragrance: I'm usually sensitive to fragrances in facial products, but this was almost fragrance-free and not noticeable. - Usage: The absorption was just right for summer use. I think it would be suitable for oily skin types. Dry skin types may want to use it with a richer cream.
ConsFor my extremely dry skin, using it alone was quite drying.ㅜㅜ After application, it would dry out and feel dry within 2-3 minutes. Also, one pump didn't fully cover my face. I had to pump it 2 times to get enough coverage, which was a bit inconvenient.

The scent is quite mild. The expiration date sticker came with it, which I stuck on the bottom, and that's great!! @The texture is like a slightly runny nose - it spreads well and has good spreadability. @When you apply and absorb it, it feels instantly moisturizing.
ConsIt catches a bit of dryness, but this one product and a cream aren't enough. Glycerin is listed towards the front, but I wish it was a bit further back so it had more of a gel-like feel - just slightly tacky and sticky in the middle. This slight stickiness seems to be from the glycerin, as it dries down and the skin feels a bit pulled by that stickiness. There's a lingering feeling of something left behind. It doesn't seem to suit really hot, humid weather. I'd recommend using this on cooler, less sticky days.
Tip@Before using a sheet mask, I toned my skin and then applied this thinly, which worked well!! @With products like this, if you apply a serum first and then an oil-containing product on top, it helps create more of a protective barrier for better moisture. I'd recommend using this more in the fall, when the weather is less sticky, rather than the height of summer. For those with severe dehydration, using a dedicated hydrating product, and then layering this thinly on top, could also be beneficial.
