Scent: It has a herbal aroma. Those who dislike artificial fragrances should consider this! Application: While it initially applies quite thickly, it gradually absorbs into the skin over time. You can feel your skin barrier becoming stronger. Packaging: It comes in a jar container. While I generally don't recommend jar packaging for hygiene reasons, I think it's necessary due to the cream's texture.
ConsNot recommended for those with oily skin. It might work well when applied to dry areas during the harsh winter months.

Absorption Although its ultra-rich texture initially surprised me, it surprisingly absorbs without feeling heavy once fully applied! The finish isn't exactly powdery soft, but rather feels like a nourishing cream layer, which is perfect for nighttime use. 2. Fragrance In my opinion, any scent that's not bothersome is good! This one doesn't irritate, so I'm listing it as a positive point! 3. Moisturizing effect It's so nourishing that when I wash my face the next morning after applying it at night, it feels like there's a moisturizing film coating my skin. I love that it doesn't feel unnecessarily oily.
Cons1. Application To be honest, the application isn't great! It's extremely rich. As you can see in the photo, the cream stands firm like stiff meringue peaks. I've also included a picture showing how it doesn't spread easily on the face. Because of this, I recommend patting it in gently after spreading it a bit, rather than rubbing it in, which might cause wrinkles.
TipIn my skincare routine, I apply this cream as a final layer after using a more hydrating moisturizer. This improves its spreadability and works well for me!

But it's packed to the brim without any gaps! I even tapped the container to check for air, but there was no give. So despite the small packaging, the volume is generous. The texture is incredibly rich. Its high density seems to provide excellent hydration after application. The scent might be divisive. It's somewhat herbal yet artificial, reminiscent of Lush's Chamomile body cream. The lingering fragrance isn't overwhelming though - it's barely noticeable. They claim 72-hour moisture retention, and I can confirm the skin stays hydrated well into the next day. Using it morning and night makes my skin feel plump. It seems perfect for dry winter skin!
ConsThe thick consistency is a bit disappointing. While I believe in using rich creams in winter rather than thin ones, this cream doesn't spread easily. It feels even stiffer than toothpaste. It tends to clump when applied to the skin. You need to keep rolling it to spread it out, and it doesn't really melt transparently with body heat. It's frustrating that you need to apply pressure to spread it. And the stickiness is off the charts! As shown in the photo, hair sticks to it that much after application. It becomes less sticky after absorption, but it's by far the stickiest cream I've ever used. Because of this, I'd recommend applying it at night before bed rather than in the morning.
TipMy skin is sensitive and dry, so I usually need to use a generous amount of cream. However, with this one, a little goes a long way. After using it for about a week, here's my tip: Instead of dabbing it on your forehead and cheeks and then spreading, try dotting small amounts all over your face before blending. This makes application much easier. Despite its thick consistency and stickiness, I'd recommend it as a winter night cream. It's non-irritating and seems excellent for skin hydration.

It's almost undetectable when applied, only noticeable if you smell the container directly. This makes it suitable even for those with sensitive noses. ▶️Texture and Application The texture is unique - somewhere between butter and a rich cream. What's fascinating is how it applies. I tried to spread a thick layer, but it adhered instantly to my skin! It's similar to Bepanthen, but less spreadable. This isn't a drawback though; you just need to develop your application technique with practice. When applied before bed, the cream creates a protective layer that keeps your skin hydrated until morning. I also appreciate the compact packaging - it's not unnecessarily bulky, just the right size to hold the cream.
ConsThere weren't any major downsides! The only thing is that since it comes in a jar, using a spatula might be more hygienic.

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.ProsHere's a review from The Hwahae Testers! *Scent - Not artificial I tend to use products less often if they have a strong scent, no matter how good they are. I liked that this product doesn't have an overpowering fragrance. It doesn't smell artificial, just a normal cosmetic scent. *Texture - Rich and dense The texture is like a thick whipped cream. It's the richest cream I've used so far! This suggests it has excellent moisturizing properties. *Quantity - Generous At first, I thought the container was smaller compared to other creams. However, when I opened it, I was surprised by how densely packed it was! A little goes a long way for hydration, and there's so much product that it will last for a long time.
ConsThe rich texture caught me off guard when I first used it. I applied it as the final step in my skincare routine, but on my already moisturized skin, it didn't absorb immediately and seemed to sit on top. I found that warming it up with my body heat and gently pressing it into my skin helped it absorb better. However, this might be challenging for a quick morning routine. I wish it absorbed more easily and was simpler to apply!
TipAs mentioned earlier, rather than rushing to apply it, warm it up slightly with your body heat and gently press it into your skin for better absorption! Recently, due to extreme dryness, I've been applying it not just on my face but also on my arms and legs. It keeps my skin hydrated for much longer than a regular body cream, which I really appreciate!

It's quite rich and thick, creating a moisture coating as it melts into the skin with rubbing or body heat. •Scent There's a citrusy aroma with a cozy undertone. Personally, I didn't find the fragrance overpowering. •Application It's similar to Bioderma's Cica Pommade and La Roche-Posay's Cicaplast, but slightly less spreadable. I was a bit surprised when it didn't glide on smoothly at first. To avoid irritation from rubbing too hard, I warmed it on the back of my hand. It feels like there's a layer of moisture blocking the cream underneath, making even application tricky. For best results, either use your fingers like a spatula to spread a thin layer from the back of your hand, or warm it with your fingertips before gently patting it onto your face. The cream's performance is quite good. Recently, my skin has been sensitive and prone to redness due to harsh winds, but this provides excellent hydration. When used sparingly as a makeup base, it creates a smooth canvas without any pilling, and my makeup applies beautifully over it! •Packaging It comes in a twist-open jar! However, I was disappointed that it didn't include a spatula. I had to use one I had lying around at home.
ConsGiven that the texture isn't the easiest to control, I wish it could be reformulated to be a bit more pliable.
TipMixing it with an aloe gel-like moisturizer makes it easier to apply! I found it works well to adjust the ratio based on your skin's condition.

My personal rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars Usage period: December 14 - December 25 (about 2 weeks) Texture: Extremely rich and thick, reminiscent of a skin ointment. Scent: Fresh citrus fragrance, might feel slightly strong to some, but not headache-inducing. Performance: Exceptional hydration, as advertised with 72-hour moisture retention. First time I've truly felt a 'moisture barrier' among creams claiming to form one. It genuinely feels like a protective coating (I even tested by sprinkling water, which beaded up and rolled off). Packaging: Clean all-white design with simple black text. No frills, just the essentials. Container size perfectly matches the product volume. 'Sticks to the basics' (+ On impatient days, I applied it thickly and wiped off the excess without waiting for it to melt with body heat, yet it still maintained great hydration. Miraculously calmed my usually reactive skin. Such a dramatic change was unexpected from a cosmetic product - truly surprising. This is why I wanted to give it 4.5 stars - 5 would be too high due to application issues, but 4 doesn't do justice to its superior hydrating power... It's so... so close to perfect...)
ConsInitially, the cream gives a warm sensation that some might find irritating (personally, I like how it reduces facial heat). The application process is quite challenging. At first, I tried various methods to speed up absorption besides body heat - applying after a warm shower, mixing with a gel-type moisturizer - but ultimately, letting it melt with body temperature works best. Due to its thick, buttery texture, it's not suitable for quick application before going out, even though you know it needs to melt with body heat. Instead, it's perfect for intensive nighttime skincare or when your face feels particularly dry and flaky. (In fact, it calmed my skin when even exfoliation and heavy moisturizing hadn't helped before. However, applying too much can lead to blemishes, so finding the right amount is crucial.)
TipUsing the correct amount is crucial, and it's absolutely essential to apply it by letting it melt with your body heat. If you're in a hurry, I recommend melting it on your hand or the back of your hand first, then applying a thin layer.

The morning after using it, when I washed my face and applied makeup, my makeup went on smoothly and my skin texture felt improved. When I first applied it, it felt extremely thick, making me wonder if it was really a cream. However, the next day's results were so good that I immediately understood why it was so rich. The scent is a subtle floral mixed with a hint of something chemical-like. I think this cream is amazing. I'm considering repurchasing it when I run out.
ConsInitially, the absorption was extremely difficult due to its thick consistency, making it quite challenging to spread and blend into the skin. That's the only drawback; otherwise, it's perfect. Also, the fragrance had a somewhat strong artificial scent.
TipIt seems to work well on dry areas other than the face too. I applied it to my extremely dry heels, and they became so soft - I saw great results!

However, once applied, it wasn't as heavy as I expected. This made me think it could work well even for oily skin types. The scent was a mild minty fragrance, which wasn't off-putting at all.
ConsThe absorbs is quite disappointing. It doesn't spread easily like most creams you'd expect. When you put it on your skin, it feels like it's clumping together. You have to rub it in multiple times to get the texture to spread, which makes application really inconvenient.
TipIf I could figure out a better way to apply it, I think I'd reach for it more often.

I wish it came as a perfume too! Of course, the cream itself has a subtle, not overpowering fragrance. Texture: From the description, I expected it to be very thick, but it's more of a bouncy, elastic texture. Application: It glides on smoothly, absorbs well, and leaves a silky finish rather than a sticky one. Experience: With the weather turning cold and dry lately, I felt like nothing was helping my deep dryness. But after adding this product to my routine, it addressed that inner dehydration, making my skin feel comfortable.
ConsSo far, I haven't found any drawbacks. If I notice any areas for improvement after using it longer, I'll make sure to update my review.
