It doesn't cause any irritation, works effectively, and offers great value for money with its generous volume. The scent has a sort of nutty aroma? It's hard to describe... but personally, I really like it. It might feel a bit heavy for summer use, but getting the sample was truly a game-changer.
ConsIt felt quite rich during the summer, and occasionally when I had folliculitis, it stung a little when I tried to use it to soothe my skin.
TipTry applying this after prepping your skin with a toner booster. You'll be amazed and think, 'What is this sorcery?'

My skin was extremely dry due to the changing seasons, but this has a slight richness that makes me reach for it often. It has a subtle aroma scent that even those with super sensitive skin should be able to use without much issue. I've had to stop using many brightening products with vitamin C in the past due to irritation, so I was worried this might be the same, but even when my cheeks flushed, there was absolutely no burning sensation or tingling.
ConsI'm almost finished with a bottle now, and I don't think it had as dramatic an anti-aging effect as I had hoped. I discovered this product while looking for a retinol alternative, but if you're expecting strong anti-aging benefits beyond hydration, I don't think this product is necessarily worth using.
TipUse this product right after your toner. Since it has its own richness, you can probably keep the rest of your skincare routine fairly light.

I had read comments about the scent being off-putting, but while I didn't love it, I didn't have any adverse reactions. I have super sensitive skin, and after using it for two days, I noticed a few small blemishes pop up. I thought it might not be suitable for me, but this could vary from person to person - it might just be my sensitivity. When I gave it to my mom, she absolutely loved it. I guess my thin skin might be the issue...
ConsThe downsides were, as mentioned above, the unpleasant scent and the blemishes that appeared due to it not suiting my skin.

That's crucial for my super sensitive skin! @ It's an all-in-one level of ingredients. Almost everything I used to apply separately is in here, haha! When I'm feeling lazy, just two pumps of this and I'm done with my moisturizer! It's totally my style. @ Pretty color ~ lovely purple hue~ @ It has a nutty scent like rice bran. It really lifts my mood! I'm not sure which ingredient causes this, but I was prepared to endure a sour smell since it's unscented. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be so pleasant. @ It has a rich texture but absorbs well with a moist and bouncy feel when applied. @ It provides deep hydration. During these dry days, I've noticeably reduced how often I need to use my face mist at the office in the week since I started using this product. @ My complexion became brighter and I felt a soothing effect. @ I couldn't immediately notice effects on pores and wrinkles, but it's a large size, so I'm hopeful to see results by the time I finish it! @ It's affordable for the amount you get, so I'll likely keep using it~
Cons@ The bottle is a bit heavy. The dropper is nice, but you have to twist it open and closed, which feels weighty~ @ It says to shake before use, but I keep forgetting because it's a hassle.
Tip@ For the first dropper, I took some from the bottom (thick), and for the second, I took some from near the opening (thinner) = mixing effect? Haha The consistency doesn't differ much whether you shake it or not, but since I didn't shake it as instructed, I came up with my own little trick.

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.ProsMy skin tends to be combination dehydrated in summer, and I experience deep dryness on my forehead in winter, so I make sure to replenish moisture thoroughly. I liked that it was easier to use than retinol, which requires some caution. The texture isn't watery but has a bit of viscosity! The scent isn't particularly off-putting, and I can't quite place it - maybe a hint of green tea? I'm not a scent expert, so I just noticed there was a slight fragrance. Since it's a large-volume product, it would be great for those who find it suitable to use consistently.
ConsAlthough my skin gets dry in winter, using products that are a bit too rich can cause yellow blemishes. Even after patting it in thoroughly for absorption, I could still feel quite a bit of richness on my skin. It's like there's a thin layer of oil sitting on top. When I applied my usual B5 cream afterward, it initially didn't absorb well due to the oily skin surface and just sat on top. Also, I developed yellow blemishes near my nose after use. I guess it was a bit too rich for me! If your skin is similar to mine, it might be best to adjust the amount and areas of application.
TipThe instructions say to shake 3-5 times before use! Don't forget to give it a good shake before applying.

The texture isn't watery, but it's fluid enough for smooth application. Gently patting it in helps with absorption. A crucial point for me is the excellent dropper - many recent packaging designs fall short in this aspect, but this one is top-notch. I used it with a device, but even without, it slightly alleviates deep dryness. It layers well with other skincare and makeup products without pilling. Interestingly, my sister swiped it for her dorm just two days after I opened it, possibly drawn by the pretty purple color. Finding the product quite nice, I went ahead and purchased it for myself.
ConsThe anti-wrinkle effects aren't noticeable yet. I avoided using it on days when my skin was excessively oily. While it does help with deep dryness to some extent, it can sit on top of the skin and feel a bit rich when skin conditions aren't optimal.
TipFor those who own skincare devices, this product pairs well! It helps to fill in and firm up the deeper layers of the skin more effectively.

Even when layered multiple times, it absorbs well and leaves a natural glow, making the skin texture look refined. It applies smoothly and leaves the skin feeling soft. Texture The emulsion-like texture doesn't drip excessively when squeezed onto the face, making it easy to apply the ampoule to different areas. Scent There's a slight rice bran-like scent, but it's not overpowering. I'm usually very sensitive to fragrances and avoid scented products, but I didn't find this one off-putting. Blemishes My skin is sensitive and often reacts badly to new cosmetics, sometimes even causing pustular dermatitis-like reactions. However, with this product, there was only a slight reaction on the third day, which quickly subsided. I'm pleased that there was no skin irritation throughout the usage period. Complexion I used this product exclusively to see its full effects. Even though I stopped using my usual vitamin C product for pigmentation and blemishes, I noticed my overall skin tone became more even and refined.
ConsWhen applying multiple layers, be careful around the eye area as it can feel slightly uncomfortable if too much product gets in, similar to getting oil in your eyes. Given my age and less-than-ideal skincare routine, I was hoping for a more dramatic change when I applied to be a Hwahae Tester. While the overall improvement in skin tone was good, the effects on wrinkle reduction and hydration were just average.
TipWhile good skincare products are important, I noticed that drinking water frequently and getting enough sleep made a significant difference in how deeply the product was absorbed into my skin. I felt that the ampoule's effectiveness increased when I maintained good hydration and sleep habits.

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.ProsFirst off, I love that I can use this both day and night - so convenient! The generous amount means I can slather it on liberally. It's only been two weeks, so it's hard to say definitively if it's working wonders on my pores and wrinkles. But I feel like it's doing something, so I'll definitely use up the whole bottle to see! It leaves my skin feeling incredibly hydrated, just like when I tested it on the back of my hand. Oh, and I noticed my makeup goes on smoother after using this! The scent was a bit odd at first, but now it reminds me of rice water - that fermented smell. It actually makes me feel like it's extra nourishing for my skin. It reminds me of when I used to rinse my face with rice water after cleansing. I have a feeling if I keep using this, my skin will become healthier overall. I've heard great things about bakuchiol products, so I'm excited to keep using this!
ConsThe instructions say to shake it 3-5 times before each use. Maybe because of that, it tends to leak a tiny bit when I open and close the bottle.

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.ProsPackaging: The large volume for a functional serum is rare and appreciated. The glass container makes it easy to check how much product is left, which I found satisfying. Scent: Personally, I didn't find the scent bothersome at all. It doesn't have any particular fragrance that might be polarizing, making it comfortable to use. Texture and Finish: It's a milky-type product with a slight purple tint. Contrary to my concerns, after a few rolls, it absorbs slowly but well, leaving no residue. It seems to address deep dryness without leaving any sticky feeling, so I felt comfortable layering any product on top of it. Effectiveness: I have super sensitive skin. Although I've wanted to use functional products and have tried many, I can usually tell quickly if something doesn't suit me - even if it doesn't cause a major reaction, I'll notice small blemishes here and there. This product boasts various functions, which initially made me a bit worried. However, perhaps due to its gentle ingredient formulation, I didn't experience any adverse skin reactions even after using it for several days, which was satisfying. I also appreciated that despite being a multi-functional product with gentle ingredients, there were no usage restrictions like day/night specific use or ingredients to avoid. This allowed for flexible use. During The Hwahae Testers trial period, I didn't notice any rapid changes for specific functions, but I definitely felt my deep dryness improve and my overall skin condition enhance. I'm inclined to continue using it consistently. This seems like a great choice for those who want to start using functional products but feel burdened or worried due to sensitive skin.
ConsThe only drawback I found was that it takes a bit longer to absorb compared to water-based products.

Can use generously without holding back. Feels satisfying. 2. Smooth application - No irritation even when applied to sensitive skin right after toner. 3. Subtle fragrance - Appreciated as I dislike strong scents. 4. Luxurious packaging - Enjoying a pleasant experience with each use thanks to the product's color and packaging.
Cons1. Inevitably compared to the retinol product I was already using before winning The Hwahae Testers selection. Effects are slower compared to the concentrated retinol product that shows immediate results the next day even with small amounts. 2. Quickly dries out even with reapplication and doesn't fully address deep dryness.
TipAfter applying the product, layer on moisturizing creams like Physiogel cream twice and Atobarrier cream once, with appropriate intervals. This prevents moisture loss and ensures hydration. Whether before bed or during morning makeup, this method guarantees long-lasting hydration and product effectiveness.
