It applies smoothly and leaves my skin feeling sleek and refreshed after washing!
ConsThe scent... perhaps because it's rice wine-based, there's a bit of an alcohol smell. Every time I use it, the fragrance seems a bit strong.

Leaves skin feeling clean and refreshed.
ConsThe strong artificial fragrance is overpowering, and the consistency is so thin it runs off, making it inconvenient to use.

As I have combination dehydrated skin, I pay special attention to pore and hydration management. As someone who has tried dozens of cleansing oils, if you ask me whether this product deserves a spot in the top 3, I'd have to think about it. These days, there are so many products with excellent quality and great price points that it's hard to make it into the top 3. In that sense, I'd say this product could probably make it into the top 5. *Texture: It has a moderately watery consistency. Not too heavy, but not runny like water either - it's somewhere in between. Good for pore management while massaging. *Cleansing effectiveness: Above average. It emulsifies well, and after rinsing with water, there's no feeling of makeup residue. *Scent: I deducted one star because of the scent. Many reviews mentioned that the fragrance is quite strong, and while I usually don't mind scents, this one is quite bothersome. It's not the typical rice wine smell or the distinct yeasty odor, but rather a strong chemical scent that makes it difficult to massage for long. *Repurchase intention: Hesitant due to the scent. There are many other good products in this price range. If you're only considering the cleansing power, it's a decent product worth considering.
ConsThey really need to improve the fragrance. I'd prefer the smell of rice wine over this. The chemical odor makes it even more off-putting.

It has a sort of authentic feel to it. The packaging is pretty, and I like the yellow color. It's surprisingly lightweight for an oil cleanser.
ConsThis oil cleanser is strange. Its cleansing effectiveness is weak - it doesn't remove sebum from my nose, so it does absolutely nothing for blackhead management. It's drying, leaving my face feeling as parched as if I'd washed with a foaming cleanser. Usually, oil cleansers leave an oily residue, but this one does the opposite, leaving my skin feeling bone-dry. The smell is so bad that it doesn't even register as a drawback anymore. It has a strong, artificial chemical scent, far from the natural, slightly sour smell you'd expect from fermentation. I bought this based on reviews and feel completely misled. Absolutely do not recommend. +Follow-up review after using for two more months to finish the product: This cleanser is so thin that there's too much friction when massaging, which irritates and sensitizes the skin. You have to be very careful to use a gentle touch when massaging. Seriously...

The packaging is sleek and clean-looking, with a twist-lock cap which I really like. The formula is a pure oil with almost no viscosity, so it flows easily when applied. Sometimes heavy oils can feel like they're clogging pores, but this one feels light while still having good cleansing effectiveness. After massaging it in and rinsing with water, there's no residue left on the skin and it feels fresh. There are no concerning ingredients, so even those with super sensitive skin should be able to use it comfortably.
ConsPersonally, I found the scent a bit artificial, which I didn't care for. While it removed face makeup, eyeliner, and lipstick well, you might need a separate remover for mascara and other stubborn eye makeup.
TipIf you massage this light oil into your skin for a while, it shouldn't cause much irritation due to its gentle formula. It seems to improve skin texture and even help remove whiteheads.

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.ProsTexture: It has a thin, runny consistency! I liked how easy it was to roll on, and after cleansing, there was no slippery or greasy feeling left behind. Experience: It gently removes makeup without causing any blemishes or irritation! For mascara, it might be better to use a separate remover. What I loved most was that it kept my skin hydrated after use, so there was no deep dryness, and it didn't cause any eye stinging or tingling. Effects: While I didn't notice any dramatic effects like brightening or blackhead removal, I'll likely continue using it because the application experience is so pleasant. It's a product that's just right in every aspect.
ConsThe scent is quite strong. I'm generally sensitive to fragrances, and this one had an artificial smell that I didn't particularly like.

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.ProsThe Hwahae Testers Review! As a male in my 20s with dry skin, I apply sunscreen and brightening moisturizer daily, along with BB cream when going out. I always do a double cleanse. I was in need of a cleansing oil when I won this, and after using it for a few days, here's my take: The cleansing effectiveness might not meet the expectations of typical consumers looking for a cleansing oil. However, as someone with dry skin, I found it quite suitable. Even after double cleansing, my skin didn't feel tight, which is great for a man who doesn't wear heavy makeup. It didn't leave any residue, and my skin felt somewhat moisturized after use. Summary: Recommended for: Dry, sensitive skin Application: Adequately rich without being too thick Finish: Non-sticky with decent hydration Skin improvement: Average Value for money: Average
ConsThe scent... While I'm sensitive to fragrances, this one is questionable even for those who aren't. It's hard to imagine who would enjoy it. There's an alcohol-like smell, perhaps due to the ingredients. Though an adjustment period might be necessary, the scent creates a high barrier to entry for this product. The mild cleansing power could be seen as both a pro and a con. However, I wonder if it's enough of a selling point for a cleansing oil. Honestly, considering the main consumer base is likely women, a cleansing milk might be more suitable. It may not work well for those with oily skin. That said, if you have dry, sensitive skin and dislike the sticky or tight feeling after using oils, this product might be a good fit. Summary: Not recommended for: Oily skin Skin issues or allergies: None observed Personal cons: 1. Scent 2. Low cleansing effectiveness

After cleansing, there was no skin tightness, and my skin felt comfortable! While it cleanses well, there's a slight slipperiness, so a second cleanse is a must! Formulation: The formulation is an oil type, similar to other cleansing oils! Other Points: I liked the clean packaging and that it doesn't splash around when pumping. The best part was that even though I have super sensitive skin, it didn't cause any blemishes!
ConsThere's one major disappointment... It's the scent. As soon as you start using it, you'll find yourself frowning. It has a petroleum-like, chemical smell that really hits your nose hard. I'm not usually sensitive to fragrances, but I found this one particularly intense. I really can't understand why the scent is like this...

If we were to compare it to skincare products, while other cleansing oils might feel like essences, this one is more like a toner. Of course, being an oil product, it's still slippery, but you can really feel how fresh it is when you use it. It works hard to give you that clean, refreshed feeling! It's great for effectively removing makeup rather than doing a deep cleanse of sebum.
ConsThe scent is a bit disappointing... It has a kind of medicinal smell that I personally didn't like.
TipRather than a product that manages sebum, I'd recommend using this to effectively remove makeup. It's perfect for that purpose!

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 absolutely love that they considered the environment! The paper tape was perfect from the start. As someone with combination dehydrated skin, large pores, and excess sebum being my main concerns, I typically rely on cleansing oils. So I was thrilled when I won this oil! My skin tends to be super sensitive, but I was pleased to find I could massage this gently without any irritation. It also emulsifies well, which is great. While I haven't used it enough times to be certain of its long-term effects, so far I haven't experienced any blemishes after use!
ConsIf I had to point out a downside, it seems a bit weak when it comes to cleansing effectiveness for mascara or point makeup. I'll need to use a separate lip and eye remover first for those. Also, the scent is slightly disappointing. I was expecting a makgeolli-like fragrance, but it's more... artificial? It's hard to describe.
TipApply generously and emulsify quickly for a gentle cleanse!
