When applied right away, it is absorbed instantly. So it's great to keep it on the bathroom vanity, apply it right after cleansing, and then proceed with your basic skincare routine. After using this, I've noticed that my skin feels a bit smoother and softer in the mornings. It seems the gentle exfoliation is working, and my basic skincare products are also absorbing better. I'm quite satisfied with this product.
ConsIt is a bit inconvenient to apply it by hand as it flows too much. Since it is not a cheap product like a toner, I cannot just scoop it out and apply it like washing my face. I feel that using a cotton pad soaked in the product or a dropper-type container would be more appropriate.
TipIt's more convenient to just dab it on with a cotton pad instead of directly applying it, as it's easier that way!

Galactomyces is related to fermentation, and I didn't like the unique fragrance of fermented products. When I applied the Hwahae product, the fragrance was subtle. If I focused, I could detect a slight fermented scent, but it was almost unscented and didn't bother me! It was good to use. ⚜️Texture It's not a viscous ampoule. It flows down smoothly. So it's best to apply the ampoule on the forehead and other slightly elevated areas to let it flow down. It's transparent! And it finishes with a soft, powdery feel, so I think it's a good ampoule for oily skin types as well. ⚜️Effects It's written that it's effective for exfoliation, and I used it when my skin had white flakes. My skin became moisturized, and the flakes were soothed! Makeup application was also good. 🥰👍✨ ⚜️Skin Improvement I didn't use anything else at the same time, just the ampoule! My skin became more supple and bouncy. As a sensitive-skinned person, I didn't get any blemishes and I'm satisfied. 💯😊👏
ConsThe ampoule formulation is too runny. If it had a bit more viscosity, it would be easier to apply.
TipStrongly recommended for skin with excessive dead skin cells. 👍😊👏 After using the ampoule, cleansing with lukewarm water allows the dead skin to come off without any particular irritation. ✨💖🌸

It feels smooth without having to do separate peeling.
ConsSince it has a runny texture, I had no choice but to quickly dispense it onto my hand and use it.
TipI used it twice a day, but I think once would be enough for sufficient exfoliation.

It's a two-in-one, as there's no need for a separate exfoliating peeling treatment. I used it without any trouble or irritation.
ConsThe watery formula runs down quickly, so you have to spread it immediately!
TipIn the morning, I apply the low-irritation exfoliating Hwahae Trial Reviewer serum. In the evening, I apply the moisturizing, soothing serum before bed.

But this one didn't cause any issues. It wasn't sticky at all, which I liked, and my skin felt moisturized the next morning.
Cons1. The texture is a bit too watery, so I wasn't sure if I was applying it correctly. But I found that applying it twice made my skin much more hydrated, and even after washing my face the next day, it still felt moisturized, so it seems to be helpful. 2. The dropper doesn't seem to fill up all the way when I use it. I'm not sure if that's just an issue with my particular bottle.
TipApplying it twice makes my skin feel so much more moisturized. I think this would be a reliable option for those with sensitive skin.

I used it with anticipation to deal with the flaky skin and makeup concerns that come with seasonal changes! *Since this was the first time using the product, I applied it lightly after cleansing, and then used my regular skincare products for the rest of my routine. The texture itself is not sticky or oily, so you can apply it right after cleansing and it absorbs quickly with just a light patting motion. The fragrance is not particularly strong, so it was easy to apply without any aversion. With the stifling heat during the day in this transitional season, my skin has been in terrible shape, but since this product contains hyaluronic acid, I felt it was able to provide adequate hydration. And since I apply toner and lotion on top of this, there were no issues with the overall moisture level. I've heard that the fermented ingredient 'galactomyces ferment filtrate' in this product helps refine skin texture. Fermented cosmetics are known to be effective for skin smoothing, but I've had experiences where fermented essences made my skin feel dry and irritated, so I'm glad that this product, thanks to the hyaluronic acid, did not cause any such issues. The effects seem to be good. As someone who struggles with physical exfoliation, having this daily texture-refining step definitely made my skin look more refined the next day, and my makeup applied better. Even without makeup, my pores and uneven texture appeared less noticeable. I plan to continue using this product consistently.
ConsThe dropper is a bit firm, so when applying with a cotton pad, I have to squeeze it out several times, which is a bit of a hassle. Also, the formula is quite watery, so if you don't apply it quickly, it can drip down to your neck.

While it doesn't necessarily make the skin whiter, it gives a sense of clarity to the natural skin tone. It has a brightening effect on the skin. 🩷Hydration It contains hyaluronic acid, and while it doesn't feel oily, it provides sufficient hydration. Applying it immediately makes the skin feel moisturized. 🩷Exfoliation It contains PHA, a gentle skin exfoliating ingredient, and using it noticeably makes the skin feel smooth and refined the next day. It leaves a soft, polished texture. 🩷Lightweight formula The formula is more fluid-like than a typical ampoule, so those who prefer a lightweight texture will likely enjoy it. 🩷Dropper type The dropper type packaging allows for hygienic application. 🩷Packaging The matte, clean packaging looks nice. It's minimalist and doesn't feel cheap, as the formula has a glass-like texture rather than plastic.
Cons🩶Lightweight formula This is both an advantage and a disadvantage - the very fluid, watery texture may feel too lightweight for some, especially during dry seasons like now. Using just one drop may not be enough, particularly in drier periods.

After using it, my skin felt so soft and smooth. Upon checking the detailed ingredients, I found that it contains 81% Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate, which is great for refining skin texture and managing dead skin cells. It seems to have the effect of improving skin texture while also exfoliating. After using it, my skin felt really soft, so I'm quite satisfied. ‼️It's suitable for sensitive skin, too. I'm the type who gets pimples right away if I use the wrong cosmetics, and I tend to have skin allergies when using products with highly concentrated vitamins and the like. But even though this is an exfoliating line, I was really worried about trying it after being selected. But I'm glad I did - I started with a small amount, and it just felt like a gentle serum with no irritation. So I think I can use it daily. Looking at the ingredients, it contains 8 types of hyaluronic acid, so maybe that's why it's non-irritating and provides good moisture, so I think I can use it even in the winter. ❗️‼️The scent is also mild. I was curious about what 'Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate' was, and found out that the fermented microorganisms help make the skin firmer and clearer. I was worried that the fermented scent might be unpleasant for daily use, but there's no noticeable fragrance at all, so I can use it without any aversion.
ConsThe formula is thinner than runny nose, so you need to be careful when applying it as it can drip down.
TipFor those with sensitive skin, I recommend using it only once a day (either morning or evening) at first, and then gradually increasing the usage.

With a watery formula, it applies smoothly and leaves the skin feeling moisturized. Additionally, the moisture lasts a long time when used in a routine with toner, ampoule, this serum, and then cream. Overall, it's a reliable product.
ConsAs a serum, it tends to be a bit runny, which may be a deal-breaker for some. Also, from what I know, the typical order is to use an ampoule first and then the serum, but the instructions on the cosmetic product say to apply it right after cleansing, which was a bit confusing for me.

Cons🥲Even though the formula is watery, it feels a bit sticky right after application 🥲Compared to the price, the amount feels a bit small
Tip👏🏻On days when my skin is really flaky, I like to soak a cotton pad with it and leave it on for about 5 minutes as a mini-mask. It makes my skin so smooth, so I do this once a week
