I've repurchased this product multiple times. When winter gets extremely dry and I start getting small bumps on my forehead or my skin feels flaky, applying this makes my skin feel comfortable and hydrated. Overall, the quality of iRecipe products is consistently high.
ConsUnfortunately, you can't apply it over makeup, and the amount you get is quite small for the price. Because of the small size, it runs out quickly. Even though I want to stock up during sales, the short shelf life makes it difficult to buy in bulk.

It's like a godsend, especially for my acne-prone, super sensitive, combination dehydrated skin. I love that it's 70% hydration and 30% oil, so it's not one of those overly rich sticks. It's an absolute must-have for seasonal changes and winter. I'd be heartbroken if it were discontinued. I really wish all office workers with combination dehydrated skin would give this a try!
ConsThe downside is that it runs out quickly... really quickly! It feels like it's gone in the blink of an eye. Also, unless it's on sale, the price is quite steep, making it hard to justify the purchase.

When my skin barrier is compromised, other products don't seem to help much even when applied generously. But with this, just a small amount creates an instant moisturizing barrier. It has the perfect balance of oil and moisture. Definitely will repurchase!
ConsWhen I first opened the cap, some of the product unexpectedly squirted out. The size was smaller than I anticipated... It feels a bit pricey for the amount you get.

It feels more hydrating than oily, with a subtle herbal scent.
ConsTends to be used up quickly, so it's not the most cost-effective option.

As someone who loves compact, portable stick balms, this one definitely passed the test with flying colors! I've used various stick balms before, and while I have dry skin, I don't prefer sticky or heavy oil-based products. This balm strikes the perfect balance - it provides just the right amount of hydration deep within the skin, leaving it moisturized but not oily on the surface. I really enjoyed how it felt on my skin. Despite its lightweight feel, I was surprised by how long it kept my skin from feeling dry deep down. My skin has been quite sensitive lately, with even my usual skincare not agreeing with it. However, this little gem seems to be gentle and soothing, making it perfect for my current skin condition. I've been using it at the office whenever my skin feels dry!
ConsGiven how dry my skin is, I find it slightly insufficient to use alone as the final cream step in my evening routine after toner and essence. Stick balm products tend to be on the pricier side, so it's best to wait for a sale before purchasing.
TipI typically keep stick products at the office or in my bag to use throughout the day when my skin feels dry.

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.ProsAs someone with combination dehydrated skin, my cheeks get very dry and I occasionally experience redness. While I've used sunscreen sticks often, this is my first time trying a skincare stick balm without sun protection. First off, I love the cooling sensation when applied. Although it doesn't instantly calm redness, it definitely helps prevent moisture loss and soothes my skin when it's feeling dry. There's a strong herbal scent, probably from the cica ingredients, which I absolutely adore! It doesn't give that oily shine - it feels more like a solid cream with a 60% hydration to 40% oil ratio. There's a slight glow immediately after application, but it settles into a comfortable finish. In the hand swatch photo, the bottom half shows where it's applied.
ConsUnlike sunscreen sticks which usually have a wider surface area, this stick balm is only about the size of a coin, so you need to swipe it multiple times. That's a bit inconvenient. When I consider whether I'd repurchase it regularly, the price gives me pause, hence the 4-star rating. But overall, I'm very satisfied with the product!
TipI found it particularly nice to apply this after my nighttime skincare routine, almost like sealing in a layer of moisture. It left my skin feeling incredibly soft by morning.

Unlike other brands I've used before with stiff formulas that felt irritating and dry when applying, this one glides on so gently. Its absorption power is amazing - it doesn't just absorb after application, but seems to melt into the skin as you're applying it. The scent is like tea tree with citrusy herbal notes, giving a refreshing feel. Personally, I prefer scented products over unscented ones, and I love herbal scents more than floral ones, so this fits my taste perfectly. Its compact size makes it great for carrying in your bag, and it's perfect for reapplying to specific dry areas of your face throughout the day. It's ideal for those who don't like getting product on their hands. Even though the scent might seem a bit strong, there's absolutely no irritation, no burning sensation in the eyes or tingling on the skin. Rather than feeling slick with oil, it gives a soft, hydrated feel.
ConsIf there's any downside, it might be that the amount is small compared to the price, but honestly, I don't have any real complaints.

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.ProsFeels like a gentler version of Kiehl's. Being a stick form, it keeps dry areas moisturized all day when applied. It's not sticky, has a good balance of oil and moisture, and didn't cause any blemishes. It's a great product to have on hand for those of us with super sensitive, combination dehydrated skin prone to breakouts. It's convenient. My lips and surrounding area tend to get very chapped, but this one product takes care of it all. Bought extra during the buy-one-get-one-free deal.
ConsThe price is a bit steep. It would be great if they could offer more dramatic discounts...!
TipJust glide it over dry areas and you're done

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.Pros* Texture Spreads easily without being too soft or too firm. * Balanced oil and moisture Although it's a hydrating balm, it has just the right amount of richness. It's not one of those balms that leaves you excessively shiny with hair sticking to your face. It feels like it creates a light, non-greasy moisture barrier after application. * For thin skin If you have thin, sensitive skin like me and struggle with heavy creams even in dry winters, this product adds just the right amount of hydration on top of your regular cream. * Scent & Cooling The subtle herbal/cica scent is unlikely to be polarizing. There's a pleasant, slight cooling effect when applied. * Portability Great for on-the-go! It's small, lightweight, and the cap closes securely. * Cream substitute Depending on your skin type and preferences, this could work as a cream replacement. It might not be moisturizing enough for winter, but should be perfect for spring and summer! When I tested it in place of my regular cream, layering it twice, it was decent but felt slightly less hydrating.
Cons* Volume The amount you get for the price is on the lower side. * Hygiene The stick format might raise some concerns about repeated use and cleanliness. * Skin soothing & barrier strengthening While these benefits are promoted, I didn't really notice such effects. However, I haven't used up the entire product yet.
