Even though my skin is super sensitive and reacts badly to most products, this one must be gentle because it didn't cause any blemishes. I'm impressed!
ConsThe pump keeps getting stuck and is hard to press down. If it accidentally gets in your eyes, it stings and makes them water.

Its standout feature is the water-like texture that absorbs well into the skin. When used as the first step in your skincare routine, it seems to enhance the absorption of subsequent products.
ConsBe very careful when applying, as it can sting quite badly if it gets into your eyes. Other than that, I don't have any particular complaints!
TipUse this as the very first step after cleansing! The peptide ingredients help to better lock in the active components of your following skincare products.

Absorbs well and provides good hydration.
ConsCauses some eye irritation. Due to its lightweight texture, it tends to run quite a bit. Personally, I find one application insufficient, so I usually apply it two or three times. After using it for about two weeks, I'm not sure about its brightening effects.
TipAt first, just apply it normally. Later, you can soak a cotton pad with it and leave it on your skin - it keeps your skin hydrated and even helps smooth out fine lines.

A savior for my combination dehydrated skin! Hydration: I'm incredibly satisfied... You know how hard it is for products to absorb when your skin is acting up? Despite that, this is one of the few miracle products that actually sinks in. For those with combination dehydrated skin that frequently gets irritated, a toner with good absorption is an absolute godsend. Texture: It has a thin, runny consistency that's just perfect. When you dispense it onto your hand and spread it, it doesn't drip down your wrist, yet it's not too heavy either. Scent: Fragrance-free!!!
ConsIt stings if it gets in your eyes. The pump isn't great... But it's so good that I'm already on my second bottle!
TipInstead of using it as a regular toner, try applying a generous amount and massaging it in with a beauty tool. Your skin will look as if you've just done a sheet mask. If you do this before makeup, your foundation will apply beautifully - it's incredible!

The texture feels like applying toner and serum in one go. Its gentle formula caused no irritation to my skin. I loved that it's fragrance-free. Perfect for winter use - the consistency is between a runny toner and a watery one. With its large size, it's quite cost-effective if used as a serum.
ConsAs someone with extremely sensitive eyes, I felt a slight tingling sensation. It seemed a bit lacking as a replacement for essence or serum. For those with oily skin, it might feel a bit heavy when used as a toner in summer.
TipI personally prefer watery toners like those with ginseng extract over runny ones. However, when I wanted a richer texture, mixing this product in worked well for me.

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.ProsThis product is incredibly gentle. With no fragrance or irritation, it purely delivers its function and hydration, making it a wonderfully comfortable product to use. Especially considering it's a booster serum, the price point of around $15 for 150ml and the hygienic, convenient pump-type packaging really explain its popularity! In terms of ingredients, it tackles both brightening and anti-aging concerns. Plus, with six types of peptides that can help address various skin issues like pores and texture, I think it's a well-made product.
ConsThere's a warning to be careful not to get it in your eyes, and it definitely stings if you do, so please use it cautiously. It's such a great product, but I had to deduct one star because of pilling. When applying tone-up sunscreen or makeup over it, it often pills slightly, which was disappointing.
TipAs this is a booster serum, it's best to apply it before your night care routine or before using functional products. Or if you're doing skincare without makeup or sunscreen, you can use this product for a one-step skincare routine in the morning as well.

I have combination dehydrated skin, and lately my makeup has been pilling and separating around my nose area. I've been using a skincare set for deep dryness, but when I apply this product right after cleansing, it helps all my other skincare products absorb so well. The glow is no joke! Before using it, you might not realize, but once you try it, you'll understand why it's a must-have. The absorption is top-notch. It helps my entire skincare routine absorb evenly, and even my cushion foundation or liquid foundation applies surprisingly well afterward!
ConsBe careful, as it can sting quite a bit if it gets into your eyes. You don't need to apply a large amount, so be cautious when applying around the eye area.
TipApply it right after cleansing. I usually follow a skincare routine of toner, serum, and moisturizer, but this booster absorbs quickly, making it a perfect first step in your routine. It's absolutely fantastic when used before your regular skincare!

I noticed it was more sticky than hydrating. I'm particularly sensitive to stickiness, so I might have felt it more intensely. When absorbing, it doesn't feel slippery, but rather has a tight, elastic sensation. To put it positively, it feels firm and bouncy! This product might be great for those seeking intense moisture and nourishment.
ConsAfter applying this and layering other products, my skin felt unusually stuffy compared to normal. As a result, it seemed like my skin became oily faster than usual, quickly developing a greasy feeling. When I skipped this and only used my regular serum, I didn't experience that greasy, stuffy sensation. *Also, be careful not to get it in your eyes or on any wounds* It stung terribly when it got into my eyes. You must be extremely cautious to avoid contact with blemishes or any broken skin!
TipAs mentioned in the usage instructions, this should be applied as the first step in your skincare routine! *Using it before other serums and ampoules will enhance the effectiveness of the products that follow*

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.ProsI'm writing this review as part of The Hwahae Testers event that I won. I hope this honest review helps those with similar skin types make an informed decision. The product is fragrance-free, making it great for those sensitive to scents. As someone extremely sensitive to fragrances, I often get headaches from strongly scented products, but this one is practically unscented. There's a very slight, barely noticeable scent. I love the texture - it's thin yet slightly tacky. It has an interestingly fluid consistency that feels oddly elastic. This unique texture makes it versatile - great for use as an exfoliating toner on a pad or as a serum applied directly with your hands. It works well both as an exfoliating toner and as a serum. The pump dispenser allows for hygienic application.
ConsUnfortunately, it causes a stinging and itching sensation on my skin. At first, I thought it was just my imagination, but the discomfort persisted both on my hands and face. Even now, as I'm using it, my skin feels irritated and tingly, despite layering on soothing products. After application, my skin becomes excessively red and feels hot. Due to the irritation, I experience redness and an intense burning sensation that doesn't subside even after applying a thick layer of soothing gel. It feels quite rich in oils but lacks hydration, which might be problematic for both oily and dry skin types. Upon application, it absorbs slowly and leaves a greasy feeling on the skin, while not providing much moisture. I suspect it might cause excess oil production for oily skin types and potential flaking for dry skin. When I apply makeup after using this product, it causes pilling and emphasizes dead skin cells.

I follow up with a vitamin serum, which has been great for fading blemishes and dark spots. Having blemish-prone skin, I used to stress a lot about leftover marks, but using this with a peptide serum and vitamin serum has really cleared up my complexion. It's gentle too, so it doesn't cause any irritation. It has a watery texture, so I can apply it liberally. The generous amount makes it feel worth the price, so I'm planning to repurchase.
ConsWhile it's gentle on the skin, I accidentally got some in my eye and it stung. So even though it's mild for the skin, be careful when applying around the eye area!
TipMake sure to apply the peptide serum first, followed by your 'functional' serum for best results.
