As the seasons change, do you find yourself mixing your moisturizer with a bit of cream or oil because moisturizer alone isn't enough? (I do!) This product has exactly that texture. The effects are just as impressive. It provides hydration and a calming effect that's neither too light nor too heavy. It feels like it creates a protective layer on your skin, and the effects last all day long. When you apply it in the morning and touch your face at night, you can still feel it working.
ConsIt may cause some pilling with makeup. The aluminum container has a rather wide opening, which can make it difficult to control the amount of product you dispense.

It wraps your skin in moisture, especially during seasonal changes when your skin feels a bit tight. It provides instant hydration. After using this product, if you apply a very thin layer of moisturizer, you'll wake up to silky smooth skin the next morning. ✔️Texture The texture is between a gel and a cream. It's neither too thick nor too light. In summer, this alone might be sufficient. For fall and winter, it's better to use it in combination with a thin layer of moisturizer rather than on its own. ✔️Oil Control It's low in oil but rich in moisture, so it doesn't feel greasy. There's minimal oil build-up later on. It's a great moisturizer for combination dehydrated skin! Your face doesn't feel heavy or clogged up.
Cons✔️Soothing I was hoping for skin-soothing effects, but it didn't really calm down cystic acne or minor blemishes. The good hydration might help with small bumps... but I can't confirm as I don't have any at the moment. ✔️Pilling I struggled with foundation pilling like dead skin when I applied this before makeup. It didn't feel particularly sticky after application, but when I put on foundation, it pilled terribly. Don't use this before applying makeup. ✔️Scent When you first apply it, there's a slight medicinal smell. The scent isn't too strong, so those who aren't sensitive to fragrances might not notice it. I noticed the scent quite a bit on the first day, but with daily use, it became less noticeable.

It's a gel-type cream with absolutely no scent, so there shouldn't be any polarizing opinions about the fragrance. You can't even detect the individual ingredient scents. I used to avoid gel-type products because they left my skin feeling dry, but this one has changed my perception. During this seasonal transition, I typically finish with a cream, balm, or oil, but this product alone was almost sufficient. I'm not sure how it will perform in the dead of winter, but for now, I'm very satisfied.
ConsI'm not a fan of the ointment-style container. I'm unsure how long it will last without tearing. +10/15 Even though it's humid due to rain this week, my skin feels super tight. It seems this won't work for winter. +10/30 Now I remember why I stopped using gel products. Something in this doesn't agree with my skin and causes pilling when I apply makeup. I'll stick to using it only in the evenings.
TipI have dry skin, so when I occasionally feel dry even after application, I apply another thin layer and follow up with Astra365 cream.

As a result, my skin tends to be acne-prone in summer and sensitive in winter. * Non-irritating/Cooling Effect Despite having sensitive skin that can react even to products with low EWG ratings, this cream didn't cause any tingling sensation, which was satisfying. Moreover, it felt much cooler upon application compared to other cooling products (e.g. cold water creams), suggesting it might be great for soothing effects. * Hydration The texture feels like it's packed with hydration without any oiliness. When applied to the skin, it creates a moisture barrier that feels incredibly hydrating without any greasy residue, which I loved. Highly recommended for combination dehydrated skin like mine. * Eco-friendly I appreciated that the product development incorporated eco-friendly ingredients and packaging, which aligns with current trends. The excellent performance combined with these environmentally conscious aspects makes the product even more appealing.
Cons* Packaging The cream needs to be accessed by puncturing an aluminum seal with a protrusion on the cap, similar to ointment tubes. However, the seal doesn't puncture cleanly and leaves remnants, which is a bit disappointing aesthetically. * Pilling After about a month of use, I noticed that when applying multiple layers of the cream, it tends to pill like dead skin. While it's fine when applied in a single layer, I wouldn't recommend layering it.
TipBe cautious of pilling when applying multiple layers.

I'm thrilled to be chosen as a Hwahae Tester - thank you, Hwahae! As someone with ultra-sensitive, acne-prone skin, I'm cautious about changing products and always look for gentle ingredients. This cream didn't cause any blemishes, which is a good start. The scent is nearly undetectable, with just a hint of something indescribable - perhaps a faint industrial smell. The packaging is quite unique, reminiscent of an eczema ointment tube. It's opened by pressing the back of the cap, which is different from the usual seal. It's clear they've prioritized recyclability, which is commendable. The cream dispenses easily with a gentle squeeze, like an ointment. Testing it on the back of my hand, wow! It delivers intense hydration and excellent moisture. The slightly white, translucent liquid spreads easily, covering a large area with just a small amount. It absorbs quickly with a slight stickiness at first, then leaves an incredible glow - like a 'water glow'. It forms a protective layer, locking in moisture like a hydrating gel cream should. The hydration is impressive, feeling light and non-suffocating. One application is enough for that plump, moisturized feeling. With its gentle ingredients, it's great for sensitive and reactive skin. Despite being a gel cream, it absorbs rapidly without leaving any residue. The absorption rate is remarkably fast. Unlike typical transparent, sticky gel creams, this has a unique, semi-opaque white texture with medium consistency.
ConsWhile it didn't cause any blemishes, the 60ml quantity seems a bit small for the price. The packaging, where you need to puncture the back of the cap instead of removing a seal, is a bit odd. If you're not careful, you might dispense too much product. The ointment-like packaging takes some getting used to.
TipWhen experiencing a burning sensation or redness, try storing it in the fridge for a soothing cooling effect - it works wonders! The excellent spreadability means a little goes a long way, making it great for hydrating and smoothing dry, flaky skin on the body too.
