At first, there was hardly any scent, and it's a cream packed with hydration. Starting from mid-February, I found that applying multiple layers made my skin feel more comfortable. It absorbs well, but because it absorbs so well, I needed to apply more. After application, my skin texture feels soft and smooth. It seems better suited for spring and fall rather than winter. The hydration is excellent.
ConsI personally like that there's no stickiness after application, but for those with dry skin, it might feel a bit lacking in winter. While it's full of hydration, it's a bit short on oil content. It seems more like a spring or fall cream rather than one for the depths of winter.

The texture is similar to a hydrating cream with tiny particles. I used it as a substitute for my moisturizer while traveling, and I was pleased that it absorbed quickly without causing any blemishes.
ConsIt has almost no rich feeling and only provides hydration, so it might be too drying for those with super sensitive skin...

The cream's texture is incredibly rich and nourishing. It's not sticky at all, but the adherence to the skin is amazing. The moment you apply it, you can feel it clinging to your face. When I slather it on generously before bed and wake up in the morning, I can immediately see my skin looking radiant and brighter.
ConsThe scent is almost fragrance-free, but there's a slight medicinal aroma. It feels a bit heavy for reapplication. Using just this cream feels insufficient, but combining it with other creams can feel overwhelming. Surprisingly, it lacks hydration. You definitely need to apply a hydrating moisturizer underneath.
TipThis isn't a cream to use before makeup, but it works great as a night cream.

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.ProsThe texture combines a lightweight hydration with a rich feel, and it has tiny particles that absorb quickly when massaged into the skin. Initially, it feels a bit slippery, but there's no stickiness after it sinks in, making it feel light and comfortable for a cream. It's fragrance-free, which should please those with sensitive noses. The ingredient list is great, with no harmful components. While the lifting effect is subtle, I do notice my skin feeling a bit more taut and elastic than before. I'll need to use it a bit longer to fully assess its effects.
ConsFirst off, it's disappointing that it doesn't come with a spatula. For those with combination dehydrated skin, it might not provide quite enough hydration. On the flip side, it feels a bit oily right after application and takes some time to absorb fully. It probably won't be suitable for winter use.
TipThis product seems better suited for nighttime use rather than morning application!

It's fragrance-free and comes in a sturdy container. The thick texture makes it ideal for dry skin types and should effectively combat dryness.
ConsThe texture is quite thick and doesn't spread as smoothly as a typical moisturizer. It feels somewhat stiff and doesn't absorb quickly, leaving a residue on the skin. This residue doesn't feel like a hydrating moisture layer, but rather a heavy, oily sensation, which I personally don't prefer. It gives the impression that it might cause blemishes. I'd recommend this more for dry skin than oily, and it feels quite heavy in the current weather. While I don't always prefer products that absorb instantly with a soothing texture, I dislike this thick, almost paste-like consistency that lacks a truly hydrating feel. I won't be repurchasing.

I wanted to find the right skincare routine, so I applied to be one of The Hwahae Testers for this product and luckily got selected! The jar packaging is super convenient since you can scoop out the product. It's much easier to use compared to squeeze tubes. The texture is quite rich when you apply it, but the finish is surprisingly fresh without feeling greasy. It's like it creates a protective layer - perfect for those with oily skin! You can actually see the probiotic particles, which is cool. There's no weird feeling when you apply it, which I love. But the best part? The price! It's incredibly affordable for a functional skincare product, and the ingredients don't disappoint. If it works well for me, I'll definitely keep purchasing it.
ConsGiven that it's a jar packaging, I would have expected a spatula to be included. Also, the cream doesn't seem to have much of an oily or hydrating feel, so as someone with dry skin, I might need to layer another product on top.
TipIf you slather it on generously as a night cream before bed, your skin feels plump and bouncy in the morning!

My skin is combination and sensitive, prone to blemishes. My U-zone is dry while my T-zone is oily. The texture feels like a mix between a hydrating cream and a butter cream. It has a firm, bouncy feel when applied to the skin. The capsules in the formula give it an extra plump sensation during application. When spread on the face, it feels elastic and smooth. The scent is unique - you'll either love it or hate it. It's not unpleasant, just a bit ambiguous. When you spread it on your hand, you can see the capsules popping! The capsules are quite visible, but once applied, you don't really feel them on your skin.
ConsThere's very little hydration, so it doesn't feel particularly moisturizing. I wouldn't recommend it for dry skin types. While it's fine for the oily T-zone, the U-zone experiences some deep dryness after application.
TipSince it lacks hydration, I'd suggest applying a hydrating essence underneath for better moisture and smoother application.

It's packed with white capsules that quickly melt and absorb when they touch your skin! When I apply it before bed, my skin texture looks incredibly smooth the next morning. As someone with super sensitive skin, I'm satisfied that the scent is nearly fragrance-free!
ConsSince it's not a rich cream, those with dry skin might want to layer additional hydration products. Even with my combination dehydrated skin, I found I needed to supplement with extra moisture after applying this cream.
TipIt works great as a makeup base, helping your cosmetics to adhere better. I think you'll see good results if you consistently apply it around the eye area and nasolabial folds!

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.ProsWhile using it, I could clearly see the probiotic particles mentioned in the product description. The texture is a rich cream, so don't expect it to be hydrating on its own. Since I have combination dehydrated skin, I always make sure to hydrate first and then lock it in with a richer cream. When I applied this cream after just toner and serum, I felt it left my skin slightly shiny but still a bit dry. This made me realize it's quite a rich product. However, when I applied it as the final step after hydrating and slept on it, I woke up to smooth, silky skin which was great. As for the scent, it's not particularly pleasant but it's unscented.
ConsSince this cream has more oil content than moisture, I found it a bit disappointing to use alone on my skin as it lacked the hydration I needed.

It's the kind of finish that those with oily skin will likely appreciate. It's a cream with capsules in it!
ConsA cream with an ambiguous position? Typically, creams tend to be either hydrating or rich, but with the Metabiome Bounce Cream, I can't tell if it's a hydrating or moisturizing cream. It lacks both hydration and richness, feeling more like a powdery cream. As a result, one layer doesn't feel like enough when applied. I tried using it before sunscreen, but when I applied two layers, the sunscreen started pilling immediately. Perhaps the capsules didn't dissolve properly? (I've been using the same sunscreen for over a year, so it's not a sunscreen issue)
TipI recommend this as a summer cream for those with oily skin
