The scent is subtle and doesn't linger, so it shouldn't be bothersome. ✓ Application: Initially, I expected it to feel like a typical moisturizer, but as I applied it, I was amazed at how it transformed from feeling hydrating to a powder-like finish without any stickiness! Compared to other products that claim to be non-sticky, this ampoule truly delivers a silky smooth finish!!!! I usually wipe my hands after skincare because I dislike residue, but with this, there's no need - it absorbs completely! It doesn't cause hair to stick to your face, and it embodies the perfect 'matte but moisturized' skincare. For a similar sensation, imagine the Peri*era Airy Velvet lip product, but for your face! It strikes a balance between hydration and oiliness, leaving a velvety finish on the surface.
ConsInitially, I felt a slight tingling sensation. However, with daily use, my skin became reddish, developed small bumps, and became unbearably itchy. While I truly loved the texture, it's such a shame that it worsened my skin condition so dramatically.
TipFor those with oily skin, this product alone might be sufficient for your summer skincare routine after toner, eliminating the need for additional creams or emulsions!

It contains fragrance, but the scent isn't overpowering, so it's not bothersome. There's no stickiness, making it great for layering and suitable for hot weather. In fall and winter, you might want to pair it with a richer cream to prevent moisture loss. This seems more suitable for combination/oily skin types rather than dry skin.
ConsIt's a bit disappointing that there are two potentially irritating ingredients. Although they're likely in minimal amounts at the bottom of the list, there are many good products without these ingredients. While there weren't any dramatic effects, I think it's decent for everyday use. I'm not sure if this is the cause, but I developed some blemishes around my eyes. My skin was fine before, so there might be an ingredient that doesn't agree with me... that's unfortunate. However, it was fine when applied to my neck and body.

It's packed with skin-loving ingredients like probiotics, bifida, and centella asiatica, which seemed promising for soothing and improving skin barrier function. I started using it the very evening it arrived. The narrow dispenser allows for precise control of the amount. The texture is lighter than a runny nose, not sticky, and spreads easily. For my skin, the hydration level was a bit low, so I applied three layers in the evening. After use, I noticed my sebum softened slightly. True to its 'silky' name, it left my skin feeling smooth and glowing, without any stickiness. The serum didn't evaporate quickly, and while not perfect, it helped with deep dryness. It has a slight richness, which slowed absorption, but created a thin, silky layer that could potentially aid in barrier repair. The generous amount allows for liberal application when needed.
ConsUnfortunately, by the next morning, I noticed some issues. Being sensitive-skinned, I tend to react quickly to products that don't suit me, whether due to lack of hydration, excess oil, or incompatible ingredients. While not very noticeable, about five tiny bumps appeared. I suspect the fermented ingredients didn't agree with my skin. When applied before makeup, the product's unique oily film made my sunscreen feel greasier than usual, though it did make removal easier. I wasn't a fan of the scent either. It had an old-fashioned cosmetic smell - I think a fragrance-free version would be preferable.
TipFor those with dry skin, I recommend layering it at least twice. It has a sebum-softening effect, which could be beneficial for those with stubborn or excess sebum. Consider using it the night before sebum removal. This product is recommended for those who respond well to fermented ingredients! It's more suitable for those with dry or oily skin looking for a glowing complexion, rather than those with extremely dry skin.

The scent is quite pleasant too. As someone with redness and sensitive skin due to atopic dermatitis, and only certain dry areas, I found this product to be just right - not too thin in consistency!
ConsHowever, strangely enough, my face gets itchy when I apply it. At first, I thought it was just my dry skin, but it itches every time I put it on. I strongly advise against using it before makeup! While it doesn't cause any blemishes, the itchiness is quite bothersome.
TipI recommend applying it only before bed. When used before makeup, it tends to cause pilling and separation of your foundation!

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 that becomes extremely dry and sensitive in winter, here's my take: ⭐️ Design At first, I didn't realize it was an ampoule because it looks a bit different from what I'm used to. But after using it, I found this design more convenient. ⭐️ Application It's slightly runny, which makes it glide on smoothly. When applied, it doesn't feel heavy on the skin. ⭐️ Absorption It absorbs reasonably well. After a while, it leaves a sort of firm, elastic feeling on the skin.
ConsUnfortunately, those are the only positives I can mention. To be honest, I couldn't use it more than three times - I really disliked it. First off, I'm quite sensitive to fragrances and prefer unscented products when possible, but this one has an overpowering artificial scent. Perhaps due to this fragrance, I experienced severe irritation. The first time I applied it, I developed numerous small blemishes and my face felt like it was burning. I couldn't wear makeup for days and only used toner in my skincare routine. At first, I wasn't sure if this product was the cause. When things calmed down, I tried it again, but the next day my skin was bumpy once more. It was truly shocking. Since I didn't pay for this myself, I won't say more, but I definitely can't recommend it to others. While my sensitivity might be a factor, based on my experience, those with sensitive skin should be extremely cautious, especially if you're sensitive to fragrances.

The serum has a thin consistency, so it seems like it will absorb well.
ConsWhen I first applied it, I was worried about mixing it with other products, so I used this one alone. Even then, my entire face felt itchy with a burning sensation. Using it by itself made my face red, left my skin feeling dry underneath with a thin oily film on top. The next day, I applied it over my peptide toner and still experienced redness. Applying two thin layers helped with the dryness I felt the day before. However, I broke out after using it, so it doesn't seem to suit my skin. Looking at the ingredients, I think the potential allergens or fragrances were probably too irritating for me.

My first impression was 'Wow, that's a lot of product!' It's labeled as 70ml, but it feels like even more. I love that it's in a tube, allowing me to squeeze out just the right amount. It's hygienic too! The semi-transparent packaging is great for easily checking how much product is left. Functionally, what I really appreciated was its excellent hydration and moisturizing properties. I have very dry skin and usually one layer of serum isn't enough, but this one was satisfactory. It's not greasy or heavy at all - it absorbs well and gives the skin a plump texture. It's a serum, but feels almost like a hydrating cream! I always noticed a cooling effect after application, probably due to the soothing ingredients. To test this, I applied it only to the back of my left hand, and sure enough, that skin felt cooler compared to my right hand. This could be a great feature for those who experience a lot of skin warmth!
ConsThe fragrance... it has a strong masculine skincare scent. I'm not usually sensitive to scents, but I found this quite potent. Those sensitive to fragrances should avoid it! Also, I'm not sure if it's because it coincided with my PMS, but after using this product, I developed some small bumps on my forehead and a few blemishes on my nose (though this could be due to my hormones). When using it, I usually squeeze tube products directly onto my face, but this one only dispenses properly when held vertically, which I found a bit inconvenient. Overall, aside from the blemishes, it's decent. I think I'll need to try it again when my skin is in a more normal state.

I have combination skin that's a bit on the sensitive side. When I first tried it, I was like, 'What's this?' It felt like applying toner. There was no sticky or thick feeling, just like putting on a light toner. I squeezed out a generous amount onto my face and patted it in to help it absorb.
ConsWell... this product just doesn't work for my skin. I developed a lot of small blemishes all over my face and it was itchy. I wouldn't recommend it for super sensitive skin like mine... It's disappointing...
TipWhen you squeeze a bit onto your face, it's hard to tell if it's absorbing or if it's all just staying on your hands. I'd suggest squeezing out a generous amount, gently massaging it in circular motions, then patting to help it absorb well.

I was chosen as a Hwahae Tester and got to try the 'Silky Barrier Water Ampoule' by the brand 'X__mii'. My skin type: Overall dry + oily T-zone with blackheads/excess sebum + fair complexion (around shade 21) + sensitive skin prone to small blemishes and pimples, but no major skin issues. Price: - Hwahae: Original price 49,000 KRW -> Sale price 21,900 KRW (free shipping) - Official store: Original price 49,000 KRW -> Sale price 41,600 KRW (shipping: 3,500 KRW) - Coupang: Original price 49,000 KRW -> Sale price 29,400 KRW (free shipping) Packaging: Comes in a hygienic tube with a twist cap to prevent leaks. The nozzle tip makes it easy to control the amount. Sensitivity: No stinging or irritation when applied to the skin. Scent: A cool, refreshing toner-like fragrance. Hydration and texture: For an ampoule, it has an incredibly light and thin texture! True to its name 'Silky Barrier', it feels like it forms a thin protective layer on the skin. You might need to layer it 2-3 times for adequate hydration, especially if you have dry skin. Recommendation: For dry skin: Best used in combination with other serums or essences. For oily skin: This product alone might be sufficient.
ConsI'm not sure if it's because of this product, but the day after using it, I noticed a few small pimples around my chin and upper lip area. I'll keep using it a bit longer to see if it's related to this product.
TipVolume: 70mL If you want to try a smaller amount first, there's a 30mL bottle version and a 3mL stick pouch set (10 pieces) available. Prices: Stick pouch set: Original price 28,000 KRW -> Sale price 13,400 KRW 30mL bottle: Original and sale price 33,000 KRW Expiration date: January 8, 2028 - quite a long shelf life (Manufactured on January 9, 2025)

It seems suitable for all skin types. After application, it didn't feel greasy and absorbed cleanly. The serum-like texture makes it easy to apply. The scent is a mild, soapy fragrance typical of emulsions, which I liked because it wasn't irritating.
ConsI'm prone to getting small blemishes from ampoules, and this product also caused a few to appear. If you're like me and tend to break out from ampoules, you might want to think twice about using this.
TipOn days when my skin feels particularly dry, I like to apply a generous amount of this ampoule and follow up with a sheet mask. It seems to make my skin even more hydrated!
