It doesn't seem to dry out the skin immediately. It applies smoothly and feels gentle on the skin. There's a slight sensation of tightening around the pores.
ConsEven though I don't have super sensitive skin, I felt a tingling sensation upon application. Those with sensitive skin might need to be cautious when using this. Also, the dropper is too short, making it inconvenient to use.
TipWhen first using it, start with small amounts and gradually increase as you determine if it suits your skin.

The texture is like a thin cream with no scent. In this spring weather, you can apply this product after your toner and skip the emulsion! I used it with peace of mind as I didn't experience any blemishes or allergic reactions.
ConsIt stings a bit when it touches acne scars. Also, the texture isn't thin like typical ampoules, so I'm not sure why they chose this dropper-style packaging. The dropper doesn't work at all, so I ended up using it like an emulsion, just turning it upside down. Please change it to a pump or tube type! It was really inconvenient to use. Considering the price and amount, I wouldn't go out of my way to buy it again. The packaging really dampened my overall experience with the product.
TipThe texture isn't thin, so the dropper doesn't work. Just turn it upside down to use it.

Despite its appearance, it applies smoothly without feeling heavy and leaves a refreshing finish on the skin. I've been struggling with large pores, and while I can't claim dramatic results after such a short time, I appreciate that it doesn't have that typical tightening sensation often found in pore care products. It feels comfortable on the skin. The slight firmness it provides is nice without being too sticky, and it seems to create a good base for the cream I apply afterwards. Interestingly, when I put on makeup after using this product, it appears to control oiliness without making my skin feel dry underneath - quite impressive! It's a refreshing and hydrating ampoule. Unlike many Cica products that often have a grassy scent, this one is nearly fragrance-free, making it very pleasant to use. I'm particularly reassured by the fact that it's suitable for acne-prone and sensitive skin, and that it excludes 20 potentially concerning ingredients. It definitely gives me peace of mind!
ConsBoth myself, with some blemishes on my face, and my mom with clearer skin experienced a tingling sensation. While applying a cream over this ampoule does somewhat alleviate this feeling, the initial discomfort makes me hesitant to use it. The dropper is frustratingly inefficient. It dispenses barely a drop at a time, which often leads to just tipping out the whole bottle to use it.

Hydration The texture feels like 70% moisture and 30% oil, giving a refreshing sensation. It helps combat deep dryness, and after using it for 2 weeks in my routine (toner - hydrating ampoule - this ampoule), I found it created a nice base for makeup. It held my foundation well, giving a firm, smooth finish. 2. Fragrance It's unscented, which I appreciate as it doesn't contain added fragrances. 3. Absorption I loved how quickly it absorbs into the skin. 4. Pores While it's marketed for pore care, it's hard to notice a dramatic reduction in pore size. However, surprisingly... it seems to help bring pimples to a head more easily. I'm not sure if it's because the pores are tightening or what, but it definitely made it easier to extract even older blemishes! Thanks to this, I was able to clear out some stubborn acne.
Cons1. Irritation My skin experienced some irritation. Although it claims to be suitable for acne-prone skin, it stung quite a bit when applied to active breakouts. It was quite painful on those areas. However, I didn't experience irritation elsewhere. 2. Dropper Due to the 30ml size, the bottle is quite short, and consequently, so is the dropper. However, when you pump it, only about half of the short dropper fills up. While you can get used to it, it's a bit inconvenient. I've resorted to always pumping twice to get enough product.

As someone who doesn't particularly enjoy fragranced products, I appreciated its subtle scent.
ConsIt's incredibly frustrating that the ampoule doesn't come out even after pressing the dropper multiple times. Currently dealing with folliculitis, my skin is super sensitive, and this product stings terribly every time I apply it. Even using the tiniest amount causes a burning sensation on my skin. Afterward, I noticed red marks and blemishes appearing. At first, I thought it might be due to the folliculitis, but after discontinuing use of the ampoule, I saw my skin troubles subside. Those with sensitive skin should take note of this.
TipSince I can't use the ampoule with the dropper at all, I just tip the bottle directly onto my hand to apply it.

However, after applying this product generously over my toner, it seems to have significantly addressed my deep dryness issues. Texture: It has a slightly rich consistency, but it's not heavy, making it suitable for use throughout all seasons. It finishes without any oily residue. Sensitivity: After multiple applications, I noticed a slight tingling sensation when applying. However, this feeling disappeared after a few minutes, though my skin did momentarily turn red. Importantly, the next day I didn't experience any blemishes or itching! Pores: While it's too early to tell if my pores have actually shrunk, I did notice that my makeup applied more smoothly than usual after using this product, and my skin felt softer the next day. It seems to even out my skin texture a bit too. Scent: It's nearly fragrance-free. If you really focus, you might detect a slight clay-like scent, but it's not noticeable enough to be a concern. I actually prefer this as I'm not fond of heavily fragranced products. Packaging: It comes in a small 30ml container with a dropper. The dropper's grip is a bit short and stubby, which can make it slippery to hold. Each squeeze dispenses about 3-4 drops of the serum.
ConsThe small volume means a small container, and the dropper can be a bit inconvenient to use. However, this wouldn't deter me from purchasing. It would be great if they offered a larger size! Also, those with super sensitive skin might experience some tingling.

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📍 Usage period: March 13 evening to March 21 evening 📍 My skin type: Sensitive, acne-prone I applied it in this order: toner > ampoule > retinol > moisturizer. I started my skincare routine in early March! 📍 Both before and after photos were taken right after cleansing, so redness and blemishes might appear more pronounced due to irritation. However, as you can see in the photos, my pores have slightly decreased in size. While it's not a dramatic effect, it's noticeable enough that I plan to continue using it consistently! 📍 The texture is a slightly thin emulsion, and it leaves a bit of stickiness when applied. I'm not sensitive to fragrances, so I didn't find it off-putting. For those with already healthy pores and good skin condition, the effects might not be as noticeable. But if your pores are as problematic as mine, I'd definitely recommend it!
ConsIf your skin barrier is significantly weakened or you have active blemishes, it might be best to avoid using this product. There can be a slight burning sensation that feels quite intense. I accidentally removed a healing scab while cleansing, and when the ampoule touched that area, it stung quite badly...

Absorbs well The texture has a viscous consistency, but it absorbs surprisingly well. Once it's absorbed, it leaves a soft, non-sticky feeling. 2. No eye irritation Probably due to its gentle ingredients, it didn't cause any eye irritation. 3. Hydration I usually experience deep dryness after cleansing, but after applying this ampoule, that feeling was gone. The hydration level is pretty good. 4. Scent I appreciated that it's almost fragrance-free. 5. Ingredients All ingredients are gentle, so I applied it without worry. + Many people complain about the dropper, but I used it without any issues. I'm not sure if it's because there's still a lot of product left, but I didn't find it particularly inconvenient.
Cons1. Irritation I thought there wouldn't be any irritation due to the gentle ingredients, but when applied alone, I felt a slight tingling sensation on my cheeks. 2. Pores The product description claims it's effective for pores, but I didn't notice any reduction or disappearance of pores on my nose or vertical pores on my cheeks. 3. Price It's too expensive for the amount you get (refer to size photo).
TipI used it in this order: water peeling -> toner -> ampoule. For quicker absorption, you need to massage it in.

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.ProsTexture: It has a milky color with a rich consistency, so I expected it to have a cream-ampoule-like application. However, as you apply it, it turns transparent, feeling almost like you're putting on aloe gel! Scent: It's nearly fragrance-free! I loved that it feels lightweight, without any pilling or heavy sensation on the skin.
ConsAs someone with acne-prone, sensitive skin, it stings a bit. However, it didn't cause any blemishes! The amount you can transfer with the dropper in one go is too small. Unless it's intentionally designed for using small amounts, this aspect might need improvement! It dries out quickly. Unlike other hydrating or soothing ampoules, perhaps because it's a pore ampoule? After 3-5 minutes, it feels like it's drying out completely, which is heartbreaking for dry skin types. I ended up avoiding applying it around my eyes and mouth for fear of wrinkles.
TipAfter using it for about a week, I haven't noticed any significant changes in my pores. But looking at the product page, it seems effects might be visible after about 2 weeks of use! This is my first time trying a pore ampoule, and apparently quite a few pore ampoules have this drying finish. Maybe it's because they need to tighten the pores? Anyway, even though it stings a bit, it didn't cause acne or worsen blemishes! I'll keep using it and come back with another review. Fingers crossed for good results!

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.Pros2024.03.07 I've been using this product since the day it was delivered until today. Skin type: Combination dehydrated skin First off, the best thing about it is that despite being an ampoule, it doesn't feel sticky and has a refreshing feel, making it pleasant to use! For about 3 days, I didn't notice much effect, but from day 4-5, I could visibly see that the pores and texture in my T-zone had improved, and my skin looked smoother than before. However, for those with super sensitive skin, frequent use might cause irritation, so I think it would be best to use it consistently on set days for effective pore improvement! Also, it seems better to use it in the evening rather than in the morning.
ConsAs mentioned in many reviews, the dropper doesn't draw up the product well, and it was cumbersome to use. It feels like you need to use twice the strength... Though you do get the hang of it after using it for a while. Still, I think this needs to be improved quickly. As for the application, I felt a tingling sensation about 1-2 minutes after applying. Fortunately, it wasn't severe, but frequent use might actually do more harm than good.
