I was fortunate to be selected as a Hwahae Essential Hwahae Trial Reviewer and had the opportunity to try the ampoule. During the fall and winter, I used the ceramide shot ampoule well, but as the weather got warmer, I found it a bit heavy, so I was looking for a lighter ampoule. I discovered an ampoule that would be perfect to use from spring to summer! ▶ Skin Type - My forehead and nose become shiny by 10 AM - I always need to use powder on the T-zone, even in winter - My cheeks used to be oily, but they've become combination - I've been managing my acne for 10 years, and it has significantly improved ▶ Preferred Ampoule Type - 1st priority: Ingredients (as a long-time acne sufferer, ingredients are more important than the feel) - 2nd priority: Usage feel (whether it's comfortable on the skin, absorbs quickly, and isn't sticky or oily) - 3rd priority: Provides enough moisture until the next morning, and doesn't cause inner dryness - 4th priority: Effectively performs its intended function (the efficacy of the active ingredients) - 5th priority: Cost-effectiveness ▶ Usage Method - After cleansing and toning, I used the product and finished with my usual Esthe La Atobearier cream. ▶ Ingredients - It didn't cause any breakouts. - Even with my sensitive skin, it felt comfortable. ▶ Texture - It has a clear, transparent, and flowing texture. - It spreads smoothly on the skin and absorbs well, leaving a moisturized feel. - It's not sticky and absorbs quickly. - There's minimal residue left on the skin, as it sinks in well. - It has a booster effect when applied in the morning before makeup. ▶ Effects - If you're looking for anti-aging or whitening effects, this is not the one.😅 - This ampoule is focused on the basics - it provides excellent hydration.🥰 - Despite its lightweight texture, it delivers maximum moisture. - The moisture lasts until the evening without causing inner dryness.
ConsYou know, the charm of basic products is their lack of charm, right? There are no downsides, but if you really want to find some... ▶ Functionality - If you need functional products, you can add other products to use along with it - There were no effects such as wrinkle improvement or blemish improvement
TipAs the name 'Daily' suggests, this is a product with ingredients, formulation, and price that you can comfortably use every day. They are selling 2 bottles of 50ml for 18,900 won... Why aren't you buying it?! Even if you feel like you're being tricked, try it once - this ampoule will suit everyone just fine.

My sensitive skin can tolerate it well. It's lightweight and absorbs nicely. It's affordable, so you can use it generously. My makeup seems to last longer (though it does feel a bit drying).
ConsIt doesn't really address dryness. I wish it had anti-aging ingredients. It's not enough for me in the winter.

In short, it is a basic, hydrating serum. I used it for a day and was so impressed by the results the next day that I immediately purchased 2 additional units personally..🫶🏻 I think I will continue to use it, especially in the summer, it will be great for oily skin types.
ConsSince it is not a functional serum, it is not recommended for those expecting effects like spot reduction or wrinkle improvement. And since it finishes so refreshingly, those with dry skin types may need to apply an additional cream.
TipWhen used with a serum and a cream with a suitable oil content, the moisture-oil balance is appropriate, and the skin feels incredibly soft the next day🫶🏻
