The cooling effect is nice, and it seems to provide a refreshing burst of hydration. As someone with dry skin, I found it suitable for light use in spring and summer.
ConsOccasionally, possibly due to pore-clogging ingredients, I experienced some allergic reactions. That's a bit disappointing.

User Experience: - I didn't find it overly rich. Instead, it feels like a thin layer of oil that prevents moisture loss. Even those with oily skin shouldn't find it burdensome. - To be honest, the cooling effect isn't very pronounced. It's there, but those less sensitive might not notice it. (Personally, I preferred that it wasn't too intense) Calming Effect: - As you can see in the photo, I suddenly had a breakout on my chin, but while using this product, the blemishes subsided and the redness faded quickly. - During the time I used this product, I didn't experience any new breakouts or other skin issues. Recommended Skin Types: - Should work well for oily and combination skin types. - For dry or combination dehydrated skin, it's good to use in layers.
ConsI was initially concerned about some pore-clogging ingredients, but their concentration seems low. It appears they're included more to prevent moisture loss rather than to block pores.

I have sensitive skin, but this product worked so well without causing any blemishes! It also has a subtle, pleasant centella scent. I highly recommend this to those who prefer a hydrating cream without excessive oiliness. I absolutely love Goodal's citrus products, and I'm thrilled to have won this in a giveaway. I'm so satisfied that I've stopped using my previous moisturizer. It's that good! The product even comes with a refill, so I won't need to try any other creams for a while. I plan to use it all up and repurchase!
ConsIt's so great - no blemishes, no visible pores... If I absolutely have to point out one drawback, it would be that the container is made of glass, so there's a risk of it breaking if dropped.
TipThe texture is light yet substantial, making it perfect for layering. I use it generously as a sleeping pack alternative in the evenings!

Overall assessment: I was quite satisfied and didn't experience any major inconveniences while using it. The texture isn't sticky, and when applied, it's full of hydration, making the skin feel very moisturized. It doesn't have excessive richness, but it also doesn't cause any deep dryness - it's just the right balance. On nights when I apply this cream, I wake up in the morning to find my complexion noticeably clearer and my skin texture improved!
ConsOn days when I applied too much, I noticed a single blemish appearing, similar to what happens when pores get clogged... I do have super sensitive skin, so I wondered if it might be due to the stearic acid.

While it's not a purchase I made with my own money, I'll share my personal opinion candidly! About the writer's skin: - Dry, acne-prone, and super sensitive skin. (By sensitive, I mean easily irritated by both internal and external factors.) - I have very large pores that get clogged easily, so natural oils and ingredients often irritate my skin or block my pores. - As I'm approaching my 30s, I consistently use firming products. Since I have large pores, I pay extra attention to this aspect. This review might be particularly helpful for those with king-sized pores! Pros: ✓ Non-sticky finish It has a slight cooling effect, which is great when your skin temperature rises due to heating! The light gel texture allows for a non-sticky, lightweight finish, making for a satisfying skincare routine. ✓ Mild fragrance As someone sensitive to scents, I appreciated that the fragrance wasn't overpowering. ✓ Value for money packaging Full-size product + refill... It's a generous amount that's worth buying.
ConsPlease note that this is a highly subjective opinion! Cons: ✗ Clogged pores As someone whose pores get blocked easily, I'm not surprised anymore... but they got so clogged... it's really tough... The first photo is before use, the second is on the last day of the testing period. ✗ Dryness Maybe it's the season, but it's too dry to use right now! It absorbs immediately after application, so I need to apply another cream right away. (I usually apply a moisturizing cream after my hydrating cream) But with this one... rather than feeling dry after quick absorption, it feels like there isn't much hydration to begin with, so it just evaporates.
TipRecommended for oily skin (For combination dehydrated or dry skin, a moisturizing cream is a must) Better for morning use than evening (Doesn't interfere with makeup)

When I heard 'Hyaluronic Soothing Cream', I vaguely thought it would be refreshing like T brand's hyaluronic acid soothing cream. However, perhaps due to ingredients like ceramide and eucalyptus oil, the finish feels more rich than expected. As someone with oily skin, I found it great to use this product alone for both the emulsion and cream steps after toner and ampoule. On days when I exfoliated, I sometimes used it as a finishing touch after a cream mask, and it seemed to provide just the right amount of oil, striking a good balance.
ConsIt was a bit disappointing that the jar-type container didn't come with a separate spatula! But I see now that it seems to have been redesigned into a tube, which is great. I was a bit concerned about pore clogging due to the stearic acid ingredient, but I didn't experience any particular blemishes.
TipIt's great to keep in the refrigerator and use cool to help reduce skin heat! I'm currently mixing it with vitamin C powder when I use it.

Ironically, slightly processed products work better *So sensitive that incompatible products applied in the morning can cause blemish outbreaks by evening *Even previously suitable products can cause issues depending on skin condition -Ingredients: Generally good, but some may clog pores if used excessively. This likely varies person to person depending on concentration -Texture: When applied, it's a watery pudding consistency, slightly thinner than expected. Doesn't drip, making application easy. Light texture that doesn't fall off your hands -Application: Spreads easily, unlike heavy nourishing creams. Truly embodies the term 'moisture cream' in how it applies -Feel: Hmm... feels super hydrating during application, but leaves a water-barrier finish. Slightly on the dry side, so applying a thicker layer might be best -Design: Color and design are very pretty. As someone who believes that while functionality is crucial for cosmetics, making you want to reach for it often is equally important - this aspect is very satisfying -Scent: Almost undetectable. Likely won't be polarizing
Cons1) Tends to be drying. Should be used with the intention of forming a barrier to prevent moisture evaporation after thoroughly hydrating with ampoules, essences, or masks. It doesn't seem to provide hydration itself 2) The concentration of pore-clogging ingredients seems high for me. It doesn't cause severe issues like pustular blemishes that occur with completely incompatible ingredients. However, it does cause small bumps. Even after a good night's sleep, I notice more small bumps on my forehead. Strangely, dead skin cells form in the U-zone (chin and mid-cheek area). The water-barrier texture seems to interact oddly with my skin's oil, causing it to pill. Or perhaps it's forming dead skin cells due to dryness... I'm not sure, but what's certain is that makeup application is impossible in this situation
TipUse this after applying ample amounts of ampoule and essence to prevent moisture evaporation. Not recommended for use before morning makeup application.

If you apply a generous amount before bed, it maintains hydration until the next morning. Great product for combination skin types as it provides more moisture than oil.
ConsI bought it because it was supposed to be good for pores, but I'm not sure about the pore improvement. The cooling effect is also somewhat ambiguous.

It seems to calm skin heat and soothe enlarged pores caused by heat, giving an aloe-like effect! It's not just a soothing cream with hydration, but a gel cream that feels like it creates a slight coating. This makes it suitable not only for summer but also for spring and autumn. It would also be great as a sleeping pack, applying it generously before bed.
ConsNo stick applicator; spatula Contains stearic acid (can clog pores) 🙁
TipMy skin type: Seborrheic dermatitis (extremely dry), redness on cheeks Oily T-zone with many blackheads Previously suffered from seborrheic dermatitis on cheeks, so I need to manage extremely dry & sensitive skin > requires oil and moisture balance ✔️How to use: Minimize base products to toner/serum, then apply only the 'Houttuynia Cordata Hyaluronic Soothing Cream' 🔹️Texture: Bouncy, opaque gel-type 🔹️Ingredients: Free from 20 caution ingredients❌️, allergy-causing ingredients❌️ While it's a bit disappointing that it contains stearic acid, which can potentially clog pores, there are far more beneficial ingredients for moisturizing and skin regeneration, making it a sufficiently good product! 🔹️Scent: Subtle lily-like fragrance, almost unscented 🔹️Application/Absorption: Applies smoothly without feeling greasy, leaves skin moist and firm 🔹️Feeling after time: Feels like 70% hydration, 30% oil (moisture barrier) 🔹️Price/Value for money: Lowest online price around 18,000 won About 20,000 won on Hwahae considering coupons & points I think Olive Young once had a 1+1 deal for 75ml While it would be great during sales, even 20,000 won isn't a bad price

I get blemishes two or three times a month, so I have acne-prone skin. My T-zone is oily (lots of sebum), while the rest of my face gets dry after cleansing, making it combination skin! In winter, my skin easily becomes dry and flaky. I used this product right after cleansing, both morning and night! ➕ Perfect texture and finish for this season Usually, winter creams either moisturize well but feel heavy and greasy, or absorb too quickly leading to deep dryness. Surprisingly, this product has a nice weight to it while finishing clean without any greasiness or residue! It's amazing how it stays plump until morning even when applied at night. This feature will likely be the biggest reason for repurchasing. ➕ Subtle herbal scent Perhaps due to the Houttuynia Cordata, there's a subtle herbal scent that's oddly healing and makes me feel good every time I apply it. ➕ Panthenol ingredient I've been looking for products with panthenol since it's said to improve skin texture, and this one has it! While I haven't seen major effects yet, my face overall feels smoother.
Cons➖ No spatula provided Since it's in a jar, it's frequently exposed to dust when opening and closing the lid. Without a provided spatula, using fingers to scoop out the cream could lead to hygiene issues. ➖ Contains pore-clogging ingredients It's fine so far, but it does contain some pore-clogging ingredients. Since I have sensitive, blemish-prone skin, I might not be able to continue using it if problems arise.
