My skin is thin and super sensitive. Packaging: I appreciated that it wasn't over-packaged and came with instructions. The 50ml size is generous, and the long dropper allows you to use every last drop of the product. Texture: Although it has a water-like consistency, it doesn't finish like a toner when applied. It leaves the skin feeling smooth and fresh, temporarily minimizing the appearance of dead skin cells. Hydration: Despite its watery texture, it provides adequate hydration. However, it's not exceptionally moisturizing - just average for a toner. Those with dry skin might find it insufficient to use alone. Dead skin cells: I have some flakiness, and while I didn't see dramatic changes during the Hwahae Testers period, there was a slight reduction in dead skin cells. They're not completely gone, but less noticeable.
ConsIrritation (not recommended for sensitive skin): Despite having dry cheeks that don't usually break out, I consistently developed blemishes in this area while using this product. It also stung when applied to skin that wasn't in top condition. It doesn't seem suitable for daily use. Skincare absorption: The product claimed to enhance the absorption of subsequent skincare products, but I didn't really notice this effect. Skin texture: While it temporarily smooths the skin immediately after application, I didn't see significant long-term improvements in my skin texture.
TipAvoid using this when your skin isn't at its best, and try layering it 2-3 times the night before applying makeup! You'll notice less flakiness the next day.

It's perfect for those who enjoy taking their time with a thorough skincare routine! The scent is so-so, making it suitable even for those with sensitive noses.
ConsIt's more viscous than expected and feels a bit sticky, so it might be better suited for nighttime use rather than morning application! For those with super sensitive skin, it's recommended to apply only in the evening, not morning and night. On days when your skin isn't at its best, it might cause a slight tingling sensation. However, this could vary depending on individual skin types!

Absorption It absorbs well into the skin! Recommended skin types I'd recommend this for skin that's not overly sensitive but feels dehydrated, or for combination dehydrated skin!
ConsI used it once when my skin wasn't in the best condition, and since it's a functional ampoule, I did experience a slight tingling sensation, unfortunately.

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.ProsAfter winning The Hwahae Testers selection, I started using the product the day after receiving it. My mom and I both tried it out. The texture is like a runny gel - light and refreshing like water, but with a slight viscosity. After application, there's no stickiness or discomfort, it finishes cleanly and leaves the skin ready for moisturizer. The scent is pleasantly neutral, which I appreciated. The matte bottle has a nice grip and feels sturdy, indicating high-quality packaging.
ConsAs someone with atopic dermatitis, I can't neglect skincare but must be extremely cautious. Recently, my immune system seems weaker, with atopic symptoms slowly appearing. However, I had to use this for The Hwahae Testers review. My atopic dermatitis typically affects my face, so I'm always careful around my eyes and mouth. Even before using this, the area around my mouth was sensitive. Immediately upon applying the ampoule, I felt a sharp tingling sensation. The rest of my skin also felt heated. The next day, I developed angular cheilitis - weeping sores around my mouth. I immediately stopped using it and went back to just using moisturizer. For those with atopic skin, I recommend using gentle, non-active ampoules or sticking to emulsions and creams. Even doctors advise against long showers or using toners for atopic skin... I'm always forgetting and wanting to try popular ampoules like everyone else - I guess I'm a forgetful atopic person. My mom, who has healthy skin without atopic issues, seems to be fine with it though. She didn't experience any blemishes and says it's okay.
TipI recommend avoiding application around the mouth and eyes. This product seems to be on the more potent side among ampoules. It might be my sensitive skin that's making me feel this way, but those with delicate skin like mine should be extra careful.

The texture? It's like water, flowing smoothly. Absorption? It sinks in without any stickiness!! (I loved this since I'm not a fan of sticky products). Results? I focused on applying it under my chin, and it became super smooth. Overall, my skin feels silky smooth. It doesn't seem to cause any blemishes or irritation either :) It's exceeded my expectations!
ConsThere wasn't anything particularly disappointing, but it might sting a bit if it touches any wounds. So those with cuts or scrapes on their face should use it carefully!
TipAs mentioned in the instructions, it works even better if you soak a cotton pad and leave it on your skin!

The texture was thinner than expected, which made it absorb quickly - a definite plus. The finish leaves skin feeling soft and fresh. As someone who prefers unscented products, I was pleased that this had almost no fragrance. While I can't say I noticed dramatic visible changes, it seems to help with dead skin cells, excess oil, and impurities to some extent. The fermented ingredients give a sense of nourishing the skin. My face tends to be on the sensitive side (with mild atopic tendencies), so it did sting a little, unfortunately.
ConsFor my super sensitive skin, it was a bit too tingling to use comfortably.
TipAfter cleansing, use the dropper to dispense the product and spread it evenly over your face.

I can definitely tell my skin texture is more refined, and my complexion seems to be brightening.
ConsIt stung a bit. The rough texture didn't completely disappear right away, but I feel like my skin texture that's not visible to the naked eye is becoming softer. Maybe it's because I haven't been using it for long.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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- I loved that I could do daily dead skin cell care. It allows for gentle exfoliation. - The texture is slightly thicker than water, but when pumped and applied to the face, it flows smoothly like water. Due to its lightweight formula, it was great to use as the first step in my skincare routine. - It absorbs well, which was even more satisfying during hot days as it doesn't feel sticky. - I don't wear makeup often, but when I do, I only apply a thin layer of base makeup. I was pleased that my skin texture wasn't as noticeable as before. I think the PHA ingredient helped effectively remove dead skin cells, sebum, and impurities. As mentioned earlier, I was satisfied with the gentle care it provided.
Cons- When I used it during times of excessive dead skin cell buildup, my skin became sensitive and I had to stop using it due to a tingling sensation. - It's best not to use it after extracting blemishes, as it will obviously cause a burning sensation. I absent-mindedly applied it as part of my routine once, and it stung, so I quickly had to soothe my skin with a different serum. - Although it's a gentle serum, it contains PHA, so it's better not to use it on days when your skin is feeling sensitive.
TipEven though it's a gentle serum, our skin condition isn't always at its best, so I recommend using it based on your skin's current state. In my routine, I use the Hwahae Booster Serum as the first step, followed by a non-irritating hydrating serum, then a moisturizing cream, and finish with a not-too-rich moisturizer. This leaves my skin hydrated, not dry, with improved texture the next day, making makeup application smoother. Give it a try!

It worked well even when used after Facto as the first step. The next day, my skin felt deeply hydrated, making it great for daily use. It also seemed to manage dead skin cells better than my usual skincare routine. Texture: It feels like a first essence. It's slightly more viscous than a regular water toner, but still close enough that you need to absorb it quickly after applying. Scent: It has a subtle fermented essence scent, but it's so close to being unscented that I don't think it will be polarizing.
ConsWhile the ingredients are gentle, it might sting on areas with blemishes, so it's best to avoid those spots when applying.

But after using this product, I noticed a significant improvement in my skin texture. People around me even started asking what I've been doing to my skin, saying I look more radiant and that my skin texture has visibly changed. It's hard to believe this is Hwahae's first cosmetic product - I'm extremely satisfied with it!
ConsWhen first applying, there's a slight tingling sensation, but it's not overly bothersome. Of course, this could just be my personal experience since everyone's skin reacts differently...
TipAs suggested, using a cotton pad for application seems to enhance absorption
