After using it for about two weeks, I noticed my skin texture improved.
ConsI heard the scent wasn't great before using it, and when I tried it, it really was unpleasant. However, the fragrance disappears quickly once absorbed, so it doesn't cause any issues during use.

After cleansing, I applied this product twice and found that it's great for improving skin texture, alleviates deep dryness, and even seems to tighten pores for a firmer feel!
ConsThe scent... Unfortunately, the initial fermented soybean-like smell is quite off-putting compared to the product's effectiveness. While it doesn't linger too strongly on the face and I've somewhat gotten used to it, it's still quite a shock for first-time users!
TipRight after cleansing, I scoop some out and pat it on quickly! Applying it twice works better than once, and for texture and pore care, I found it effective to soak a cotton pad and wipe gently. After application, the scent dissipates somewhat, making it easier to get used to!

When I apply it before bed, my makeup seems to go on better the next day.
ConsEven though I'm usually not sensitive to scents, the strong sour smell means I can only use a small amount after cleansing at night. If they could improve the fragrance, it would be even better.

Usually, fermented skincare products don't suit me, but this one works well. I'm using it as a toner replacement. However, it can feel a bit drying in the depths of winter. I apply about 3 layers and let it absorb. My skin texture feels more resilient now. Seeing my boyfriend with combination skin use it well, it seems it doesn't cause excess oil or blemishes.
Cons* I guess it's the typical fermented scent... But since the ingredients are great, I'll put up with it. However, it stings if it gets in your eyes, so I avoid the eye area.
Tip* I've decanted it into a spray bottle to use. It feels great to spritz on right after cleansing.

I was so curious about how it would enhance my skin's natural vitality, and honestly, I was worried it might not suit my skin since it was my first time trying this brand. But it's amazing! I've only used it at night so far, so I'm not sure how it'll work before makeup during the day. However, other reviewers say it absorbs well under makeup, so I'm planning to try that too! At night, I've been using it by soaking my usual toner pad with this product and wiping it over my face, then patting another layer to help it absorb. After that, I follow up with my usual skincare routine of serum and moisturizer. Even though this is the only change I've made, my skin feels incredibly smooth in the morning, as if I've had a deep, restful sleep. My skin texture has almost completely evened out! Is this the 'skin becoming healthier on its own' effect mentioned in the product description? The packaging design is also sleek and minimalist, which I love!
ConsAs everyone has mentioned, the scent is a bit off-putting. It's somewhat reminiscent of a medicinal, herbal smell? But it doesn't linger long and mostly dissipates by the time you finish your skincare routine. Also, don't expect this product alone to provide hydration! It has a watery texture, so think of it more as a skin-refining step. Make sure to use it alongside hydrating products like serums or essences for best results.
TipFor best results, apply two layers: one as an exfoliating toner, and another by dispensing the product directly onto your hands. Be sure to follow up with a hydrating serum and moisturizer to maximize the synergistic effects!

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.ProsI was curious about PreCare and glad I got to try it. With my deep dryness, I had high hopes for it. While I didn't necessarily feel it maximizing the effects of other skincare products, I could tell my skin was becoming healthier overall. After using it, I noticed my skin texture improved and my complexion became clearer. Even though I don't have acne-prone skin, just some visible pores, my skin started to look cleaner - I even wondered if my pores had shrunk a bit. It felt like my skin was truly improving. It's convenient to use, just like a toner, and it absorbs quickly without interfering with the absorption of other products.
ConsThe scent is worth mentioning. While it's better than having artificial fragrances, it might be surprising at first. You'll probably get used to it gradually. The price is on the higher side, but when you consider the production process described in the product information, you can understand why it might be expensive.

I kept it in the bathroom and used it consistently right after cleansing morning and night. From day one, my skin condition was truly amazing. The texture is like a water toner, so it absorbs well and quickly. There's no slipperiness, sticky residue, or lingering feeling - it just absorbs completely. After applying, my face feels super hydrated without any tightness, and my skin texture seems well-balanced even without using a cotton pad. It feels like it grabs your skin by the collar and pulls it up to peak condition. It's seriously awesome!
ConsEverything's great, but I really can't get used to the scent. It's like a mix of vinegar with a shot of makgeolli? There's this pungent, fermented smell that was so off-putting at first, I hesitated whether to use it or not.
TipTry keeping it in the bathroom and using it right after cleansing morning and night! It's truly effective as a first essence in your routine.

Due to its consistency, I didn't expect much hydration, but it was surprisingly more moisturizing than I thought and provided a decent level of hydration. While I don't have blemish-prone skin, so I didn't see dramatic results, after using it for two weeks, my skin texture definitely feels smoother, and some of the small whiteheads and bumps seem to have reduced! I think it might take longer to notice effects on strengthening the skin barrier, so I'll need to use it more consistently to really tell. [After 1+ month of use] I didn't notice much after two weeks, but with consistent use, the results are visible! The dark spots and pigmentation on my cheeks have noticeably faded, and my skin texture has become smoother without using any separate exfoliants or toner pads! Usually during ovulation, I experience increased dead skin cells and sebum, making my skin very rough and prone to minor breakouts. But after using this, my skin texture has improved so much that I don't even notice these issues during ovulation anymore! While short-term use didn't show significant effects, consistent use seems to be paying off. And although I'm using a separate pore serum, I think this helps with pores too! I've noticed my pores seem slightly smaller since using it. If it's not directly helping the pores, it might be enhancing the absorption and effectiveness of other products. It feels like it's making my skin healthier from the inside out. Highly recommended!
Cons[After 2 weeks of use] As mentioned earlier, since I don't have blemish-prone skin, I didn't see dramatic effects. Apart from hydration and skin texture, I didn't notice significant improvements in areas like pores or skin resilience. I'm planning to use it more consistently with the mindset that 'it's probably working on making my skin healthier overall.' Also, as other reviews have mentioned, the scent isn't great. If I had to describe it, it's a bit like the unpleasant smell of ginkgo... But you get used to it over time, so it doesn't significantly impact the user experience. Aside from the scent, I didn't find any major inconveniences! [After 1+ month of use] Unlike my 2-week review, I've now noticed definite improvements in skin texture and pigmentation reduction, so I don't have any complaints. I'm using it with satisfaction!
TipInitially, I applied just one light layer, but I found that layering it two or three times seems to yield faster results. In the beginning, I applied one layer, then increased to two or three layers mid-way through, and now I'm back to applying one or two layers.

It's easier to pinpoint any irritants and troubleshoot blemishes. This Cellolabo essence has an impressively simple formula, which I love. - Improved skin texture People suddenly started complimenting my skin after using this! To give an accurate review, I kept my existing skincare routine the same and only added this product for two weeks. The results were clear - my skin's texture became smoother and my pores appeared refined. My coworkers, who see me daily, noticed the difference right away. That's why I'm recommending it!
Cons- The slightly musky scent is a bit disappointing. Personally, I don't prefer skincare with strong artificial fragrances, so this level is tolerable for me. - I'm not sure if it's just me, but I feel like my facial hair has become more noticeable
