- Hwahae UserOily SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinDec 8, 2023
My skin type: Extremely oily, sensitive (stings with most products), large pores I was selected as a Hwahae Tester and here's my review after a week of use! My usual skincare routine includes Hera Hyaluronic Skin Essence and Atobarrier Cream, with occasional use of Dr.G Red Blemish Soothing Cream. For this Hwahae Tester review, I replaced my Atobarrier Cream with this product for a week! Firstly, what I loved most was the ingredients. With hardly any harmful ingredients and being a vegan product, I felt it was perfect for my sensitive skin. I didn't experience any blemishes or increased oil production while using it. The packaging is great. I love that the lid and container are separate, and you need to press to dispense the product! It's easy to control the amount, and not too much comes out at once. However, it might be tricky to scrape out the last bits later? Fresh finish When first applied, there's a very slight sheen? But it absorbs quickly, leaving a fresh finish. Hydration? I only changed one product in my routine, but I felt more tightness than usual. For me, an oily skin type, to feel tightness might indicate a lack of hydration... That's what I think. My mother also tried it once and said that while it felt moisturizing, her skin felt tight afterwards. So, regrettably, I had to deduct one star! Oil content It's not overly oily, but when first applied, there's a noticeable... oiliness. It's not severe! But those seeking 100% freshness might be surprised at first. However, as you use it, you don't really notice the oiliness! But there is some oil content. It doesn't make your skin look greasy though. Just keep in mind that I'm quite sensitive. If you apply your toner, moisturizer, serum, etc... and build a solid base before using this product, you'll wake up to soft, smooth skin the next day! - Hwahae UserDehydrated SkinDec 8, 2023
As a member of The Hwahae Testers, I'm excited to share my review! Here are the things I loved about this cream: Fragrance-free: As described, it's unscented. If you sniff closely, there's a faint clay or silicone scent, but it's so subtle it's practically fragrance-free. Hydrating: As someone with oily skin, I found this cream more nourishing and rich than my usual moisturizer. It settles into a silky finish after a while, making it suitable even for oily skin types during winter. Packaging design: The pump dispenser is sleek and hygienic, making it easy to use the right amount without mess. Makeup doesn't sit well: When I apply makeup over this cream, it tends to pill and separate. Using less cream leaves my skin too dry, so it might be best as a night cream. Feels oily: To me, it feels more oily than hydrating. Difficult to spread: Due to its rich texture, it doesn't spread easily if you use too little. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinDec 8, 2023
I love the sleek pump bottle design. It dispenses just the right amount for the whole face with one pump, which is super convenient. The cream absorbs well, without any pilling or residue, which I really appreciate. After application, it leaves a soft, matte finish rather than feeling sticky. The quantity is a bit small. At 50ml, I feel like I'll use it up quickly. It's disappointing that you can't see how much product is left. It feels more rich than hydrating, so it's better suited as a final layer after applying hydration. For my combination skin, it worked well everywhere except my dry cheeks, where it didn't provide enough moisture as a finishing cream. - Hwahae UserDehydrated SkinAcne SkinSensitive SkinDec 7, 2023
The texture is a perfect blend between a cream and an emulsion, making it incredibly smooth to apply. Its safe ingredients and fragrance-free formula make it ideal for sensitive skin. When used after a skin essence, this moisturizer provides excellent hydration. After using the cream, I'm delighted with how smooth my skin feels during my morning cleanse. It seems to have a slight calming effect on easily reddened skin. For those with dry skin, using this cream alone after toner might not provide sufficient moisture. Despite its texture, it leaves a slightly oily residue, which might be a bit heavy for midsummer use. Mixing a drop of facial oil into the cream can provide an even deeper level of hydration, which is wonderful. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinSensitive SkinDec 5, 2023
Skin texture. After it's fully absorbed, I really love how soft and smooth my skin feels. I was actually surprised by the Inner Glow on my face! The texture is a typical cream consistency. Other aspects are just okay... There doesn't seem to be any particularly strong standout features. It seems decent enough to use as a daily day cream. The oil and moisture balance... On my skin, I felt more richness than hydration, so I felt this cream alone wasn't enough for hydration. I keep thinking about my previous cream... If only it had a bit more hydration, it would be absolutely perfect for my taste. It's such a shame... I found it works well if you hydrate separately first, then apply this thinking of it as a protective layer. If you apply it too thickly, it takes a while to absorb, so keep that in mind!
