However, the effects on elasticity and the like are likely difficult to observe in the short term, so I'll have to keep an eye on it.
ConsThe fragrance seemed a bit strong (like the scent of Rilbit men's skin..?) and there was a slight remnant of atopy near the cheekbones, which stung a bit ㅠㅠ It didn't feel extremely gentle.

ConsThe fragrance feels too artificial, so there will likely be a strong like/dislike reaction. It may seem fine once you get used to it, but it's not always that good. It's a water-based formula, but when applied, it feels a bit oily, so it may not suit oily skin types. Not recommended to use with other basic skincare products. Maybe one moisturizer or ampoule, but any more than that and it feels too heavy right away. The active ingredients require a lot of shaking and mixing each time, which is a bit of a hassle.
TipThe effect will be more noticeable when used with Riddle Shot. It seems to be just right for dry skin that is not sensitive to fragrance.

I tried it right away because it contains Bakuchiol, which is a retinol alternative. ' It certainly gave me the feeling of tightening the pores! (However, the term 'mitigated' would be more appropriate than 'dramatic change'...) ' You need to shake it well before use to properly mix the layers. I pumped it once on the right and once on the left to apply it evenly, and I felt it was also replenishing moisture as expected! ' Of course, I also layered a moisture serum once more and applied the Dr.G Bakuchiol cream one more time! So it worked out really well!
ConsWhen I pump it once, it comes out a bit like spitting saliva(?), splattering and spraying all over the place, so it's a bit inconvenient. The smell is not like cucumber..it's a rather artificial fragrance. I'm not that sensitive to smells, so I just ignored it and used it, but sensitive people might need to be careful. Hmm, and the biggest problem is that, while it's not always the case, about one out of three times I used it, I got some kind of trouble. It's not like acne, but more like small, bumpy blisters(?) that appear. They do subside after a day, but having that happen a few times made me not want to use it anymore. I did continue using it a few more times after that, but after finishing the product, I don't think I'll be repurchasing it.

I'll write an honest review.. As I have extremely dry skin and my T-zone is oily, it was quite difficult for me to find a basic skincare product that suits me. Fortunately, I was selected as a Hwahae Trial Reviewer and got to try this product. First of all, it's fragrance-free. When products have added fragrance, they often cause skin problems. I usually purchase fragrance-free body and basic skincare products, so I really liked that this product has no stickiness at all. There was absolutely no stickiness whatsoever. I pumped a small amount onto the back of my hand and as you can see in the photo, it was extremely moisturizing and glowy. I read in other reviews that this product can cause makeup to slip, but I fortunately didn't experience that. Since it's a highly moisturizing product, I might not be able to use it as the weather gets warmer. But I'll need to apply it generously. People around me have been saying that my skin is glowing and has improved. I plan to purchase this product with my own money once I finish this one.
ConsThe fragrance has a slight plastic-like scent, or so I should say. It's almost odorless, but I didn't really feel any discomfort using it.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsI used the product for about a week. My skin type is extremely dry and sensitive. What I liked: ⭐️Texture The formula is slightly runny, but when applied, it feels oily and bouncy. I was more satisfied with the product after applying it. The skin feels moisturized when applying and bouncy afterwards. After using this product and then applying a cream, my skin did not feel dry. The product is quickly absorbed and does not feel sticky. ⭐️Low irritation It contains bakuchiol and Himalayan bamboo ingredients, and my skin did not feel irritated after applying it. As my skin is severely dry, many products tend to sting, but this one did not. It is a vegan cosmetic, so I recommend it for those with sensitive skin. ⭐️Oil layer and purple serum First of all, the purple-colored serum in the bottle is so pretty. So I feel good every time I apply it. When shaking the oil layer, the entire product turns purple, and I think this oil helps maintain more moisture. Personally, as I have extremely dry skin, I want moisture and wrinkle improvement, and while I'm not sure about the wrinkles, the moisture and facial hydration seem to be maintained to some extent thanks to the oil layer. My skin did not dry out immediately.
ConsThe fragrance was a bit chemical-like when I first applied it, but I got used to it quickly and it wasn't bothersome after that. As I prefer unscented products, the fragrance was a bit disappointing. The product comes in a pump form, but I think a dropper would suit it better. The amount is difficult to control, and the pump feels a bit stiff, which was disappointing. The product is good, but the price seems a bit high considering the volume. Increasing the volume would be appreciated.
TipBefore applying the night cream, applying it twice gives a definite feeling of the skin being enveloped in oil. And after applying it, that plump, bouncy feeling is really nice! The product seems suitable for all four seasons.

The formulation is completely watery, so when applied, it is absorbed quickly. Especially, there is no sticky residue left after absorption, making it easy to apply other cosmetics right away. 2. Effective for internal dryness. It was effective not only on the surface of the skin but also on internal dryness. With consistent use, it seems to help with internal dryness. If you use this product along with creamy cosmetics, the moisturizing effect will last longer. 3. Soothing effect. When there is irritation on the face, using this product can quickly have a soothing effect. It works well after being exposed to cold wind outside or when the face is flushed.

ConsThe unusual artificial fragrance and raw eggplant scent may divide opinions. The product dispenses too forcefully from the container, causing it to spray around.
Tip- Be sure to shake and mix well before use. - It seems to suit the transitional seasons or winter better than the height of summer. - It has a smooth, flowing texture, so be careful not to let it drip when applying.

It was great for me, a dry-skinned person, as I could slightly feel the oil barrier. It's extremely moisturizing, filling in the dehydration and sealing in that moisture. It might be a bit oily for those with oily skin. 💜The packaging is sturdy, so it doesn't leak, and it's easy to squeeze out. 💜I'm not sure about the pore-tightening effect, but it did help fade acne scars and discoloration. The whitening effect was also good.
ConsThe scent... was almost odorless, but there was a hint of a grape-infused cosmetic fragrance, which was not quite to my liking.
TipThe serum was a bit heavy, so I mixed it with a hyaluronic acid serum and it worked well for daily use.

However, it absorbs well and applies smoothly without any stickiness. I'm using retinol or bakuchiol products to target anti-aging, and this product is quite gentle, so I didn't experience any redness or peeling after using it (the ingredients are generally good). While bakuchiol is said to be less irritating and have lower sun sensitivity compared to retinol, I only use it at night.
ConsIf you're looking for a formula that's somewhere between a toner and a cream, I wouldn't recommend this product 😢 I also wouldn't suggest it for those sensitive to fragrances 😢 (The scent is not floral, but has a peculiar artificial aroma - could it be due to the Bakuchiol ingredient?)

As a person with dry skin, I was worried it might be too lightweight, but when I pumped it onto my palm, I could see an oily component. I was concerned it might feel slippery, but when I applied it to my face, it spread on smoothly and left a hydrating, non-sticky finish. Although the unfamiliar formula with the oily feel made me expect poor absorption, it was surprisingly quickly absorbed and left my skin feeling moisturized. As someone with combination skin that is prone to enlarged pores and oily T-zone, I've struggled to find pore-refining products that work. However, this serum visibly tightened my pores in a short time, which I'm really pleased about. I'll continue using it to achieve a baby-soft complexion. If you're concerned about enlarged pores, I highly recommend the 'Hwahae Triple Effect Synergy Serum'.
ConsIt was a bit disappointing. When I applied all the cosmetics on my face, the product performance was great, but the scent was really important, you know? It had a certain oily smell, like a gas smell...? A distinctive oil-like smell...? On days when I wasn't feeling well, I found myself holding my breath and applying it quickly, without even realizing it. It's not that the scent was overpowering, but I thought people with sensitive noses might have a slight aversion to the fragrance when using this product.
