The tube packaging is hygienic and easy to dispense. As it is a pore-tightening product, there is a cooling sensation. Since I have a tendency towards facial flushing, the cooling effect was pleasant for me.
ConsMy sensitive skin felt a slight sting, possibly due to the cooling sensation. I will continue using it and provide more feedback.

The fragrance is almost odorless. The texture has a lightweight, water-based feel rather than an oily one. It absorbs completely into the skin without leaving any residue. It pairs well with makeup - good for use in the morning, afternoon, and evening. After using it for about a week, I didn't really notice any significant effects like pore reduction. At first, there was a slightly cooling sensation when I applied it, but that didn't last beyond the second application. It gives a refreshing, almost refrigerator-like feeling, which I think would be perfect for summer use. I didn't experience any breakouts while using it, and while it might be a bit too lightweight for fall and winter, it paired nicely with my cushion foundation. Overall, I think this is a great cream for the current warmer weather. As a nomadic user, I'll keep searching for even better creams, but for now, I'll stick with this one.
ConsIf there are scars on your face, it would be best to avoid applying it! I tried applying it, but it stung a bit, so I rubbed it off vigorously.

(Highly recommended for summer)
ConsThe visible pore improvement and skin moisture, elasticity and tightening effects have not yet been observed, as it has been less than 2 weeks since I started using it, so I will continue using it consistently! Niacinamide ingredients may cause a stinging sensation depending on skin condition and sensitivity, so be sure to check the ingredients and do a skin test before use!
TipAs mentioned earlier, I recommend using the Hwahae cream as a skincare step before makeup. While the product description states to apply it twice a day after using toner and serum, you can use it according to your usual skincare routine and personal preference. My personal routine is: toner pad > soothing gel > serum > cream.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsUsing the product description, I clearly felt the following: Immediate cooling function✅️ Whitening and wrinkle improvement✅️ Improvement of enlarged pores due to heat stimulation👍✅️ Improvement of subcutaneous elasticity in the pore area👍✅️ No skin irritation✅️ When applied, it felt like a thin soothing cream, and rather than feeling immediately absorbed, there was a feeling of it remaining on the face. Even though my skin is really sensitive, there was almost no irritation or trouble (I'm not sure if there was absolutely none since it's PMS season, but even so, this is already a passing grade), and my combination skin is divided into dry&oily&very dry&normal areas, but I didn't feel like it particularly didn't suit any of those areas, except that it didn't fully saturate the skin with moisture. And after applying the product to my face, the cooling sensation doesn't just disappear after a moment, but it stays, so it feels refreshing, like a cool breeze on a hot sunny day. And blackheads and uneven texture have been gradually disappearing, which was so touching to me. If I continue using it and the visible pores and blackheads decrease, I'll consider it a holy grail product... Of course, I'm also using a serum from another brand that helps with pore care, so the effects may be showing up faster, but the changes that weren't visible even when just using the serum started to appear after using this product, so I'm just so grateful.🤦♀️👍 And another great thing was that the skincare products I'm currently using blend really well with this product, so it absorbs into the skin better, and it's amazing how glowy my face looks. ㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ
ConsWhen applied close to the eyes, there is a slightly stinging or irritating sensation, you could say. After applying and sleeping, when you wake up in the morning and rinse your eyes with water and open them, your eyes feel a bit sore. However, it's not extremely painful, just a vague stinging and irritation. Also, on days when my condition is not good (I'm already prone to allergies), right after applying, it becomes a bit reddish and itchy. I'm not sure yet if the breakouts are caused by this product.
TipAfter applying it properly, I felt that leaving it as is for a few minutes allows the cooling sensation to last longer. If I leave it like a face pack for 10-20 minutes and then apply an oil-based cream just before going to bed, my face looks very radiant the next day. On days when I feel my skin is lacking moisture, I apply this cream and add a thin layer of another hydrating face mask on top.

It's thicker than expected, about the consistency of a moisturizing cream. It provides a good amount of cooling sensation.
ConsIt's refreshingly cool, but it's cooler than expected, to the point where one might think it's stimulating at first. However, it's a bit stinging? Not recommended for those with sensitive skin.

I'm glad that Hwahae gave me the opportunity to leave a Hwahae Trial Reviewers review. 🌱Cooling effect When I applied it to my face after a hot shower, there was no immediate cooling sensation, but when I dried my hair and looked in the mirror, I could see that my reddened face had returned to normal. Since I consider the cooling effect to be a form of stimulation, I was actually quite satisfied with it! 🌱Pore tightening effect The size of my pores has definitely decreased. After using it for at least 3 days, the pores that had expanded and merged into two became less noticeable, and the smaller pores were almost invisible unless I looked very closely. The effect was most pronounced on my nose, followed by my forehead and cheeks. 🌱Sebum control effect I believe this cream effectively controls sebum production. I used to have very stubborn blackheads on my nose, but after using this Nokdu Soothing Cream, I no longer get those oozing blackheads even after a long time without makeup. The T-zone area also remained moisturized but not greasy, not requiring blotting papers. However, I do have some disappointments to share regarding this. 🌱Skin texture improvement Since I don't exfoliate frequently, I didn't use any other exfoliating products along with this pore-tightening soothing cream, but I noticed an improvement in the uneven texture around my forehead and the area near my eyes. The whiteheads under my chin also decreased.
ConsThere was a stinging sensation when I first applied it, but it went away after about two days of use. However, extremely painful pimples have appeared on my cheeks (on both sides, located on the outer and central parts of my face). I'm not sure if this is due to my personal circumstances (constipation and work stress) or if the cosmetic ingredients don't agree with me. But since the only product I've changed is this one, the pimples are likely related to that. Now, a week later, after going to the bathhouse, the situation has improved significantly. Regarding sebum control and effects, I would recommend that those who like matte skin and use powder products, like myself, also use additional moisturizing products.
TipI found my skin to be most comfortable when I applied the product intensively to the pore-troubled areas, massaging it in, and then layered my usual moisturizer on top. I recommend that those who experience initial irritation when first using the product start by applying a small amount only to the problem areas, gradually increasing the amount as your skin adjusts. I've experienced clear pore-tightening effects and am continuing to use this product until the last drop, as it's been strengthening my skin (haha). I was actually just expecting a small sample from the Hwahae Trial Reviewers, so I was really surprised to receive the full-size product! I'll be sure to use it well. 💖 I hope both Beplain and Hwahae continue to thrive. 👋🏻

ConsDue to the change of seasons, my skin has become very sensitive. As soon as I applied the product, I felt a burning sensation and stinging, and redness appeared in certain areas. For the above reasons, I had to discontinue using it for a few days, but I plan to try it again later.
TipIf you are as sensitive as I am, try the back-of-hand test first! As soon as I put it on the back of my hand, it stung like a nettle shot..!

While the whitening and pore improvement effects remain to be seen, the immediate cooling effect is certainly noticeable - just the right amount. It absorbs quickly and leaves a refreshing finish without dryness, making it the perfect final step. There's hardly any scent, which I liked. And personally, I appreciate the narrow opening that allows for a neat application. I finish my morning routine with this, but I still lightly apply a moisturizing cream at night just in case it gets dry - a perfect routine..haha
ConsRight after using it, there is a slight tingling or uncertain feeling, but it doesn't seem to cause any trouble or redness, so I think I'm using it well.
