This review was written by a Hwahae Trial Reviewer who received the product for free and evaluated it with a sense of representing Hwahae. 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.ProsThere is almost no scent. The texture is thin and runny, like a watery nasal discharge, so it spreads smoothly and has a sticky, spreadable quality. If applied incorrectly, it can sometimes cause skin irritation, but this product feels extremely gentle. It feels very moisturizing when applied, but after full absorption, there is a slightly drying sensation. I think it would be better suited for oily skin types rather than dry skin. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a lightweight, beneficial essence that can be easily applied.
ConsThere's nothing in particular, but if I had to pick one, it would be that the fragrance-free option is actually a bit disappointing.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThe skin type is oily, sensitive, and prone to blemishes. The best part was the ingredients!! Since it's a gentle product that even babies can use, I definitely felt that it was non-irritating and mild. As a result, it didn't irritate my sensitive skin or cause any blemishes, so I was able to use it gently. I was also satisfied with how well it hydrated. However, I was a bit worried before using it because the texture was very thick and stretchy like spider webs, but when I actually applied it, it didn't feel heavy at all. When rolling it on, it absorbed quickly and didn't leave a heavy finish, which I liked even more. I could feel that it was effectively hydrating my skin!! I also liked the packaging - it's in a pump format rather than a dropper, which made it more convenient to use.
ConsI'm not quite sure about the effectiveness of the redness relief or trouble relief, but it has a gentle essence feel!!
TipIt seems to be quite elongated. Since it's a formulation, it's better to roll it rather than pat it, you know~~

As it is fragrance-free, it seems suitable for those sensitive to scents. The slightly sticky texture gives a more moisturizing feel. However, it does not feel heavy or oily, but rather provides a hydrating sensation, making it suitable for use even in the summer.🫶🏻
ConsThere's nothing particularly special about it. The formulation may be polarizing, but it was absorbed quite well and turned out to be good, contrary to expectations.

It does not contain any functional ingredients such as wrinkle care or whitening, and is composed solely of moisturizing and soothing components, making it an excellent essence for those with sensitive skin. The 100ml volume is generous, and it is not heavy, so it can be easily incorporated into your skincare routine during seasonal changes, helping to alleviate dryness. It would also be beneficial for skin that has undergone dermatological procedures or experienced a lot of external stimuli.
ConsAdmittedly, the feel of use may not be refreshing or lightweight, but it creates a persistent moisturized sensation, so there may be mixed opinions about it. The fragrance is the original scent of the ingredients.
TipApplying it between your usual serum and moisturizer in your routine can help with inner dryness~

There was a day when I just applied this product after toner and fell asleep, and I didn't feel any dryness at all. 👍Fragrance - Fragrance-free 👍Vegan - These days, many people are looking for vegan products in cosmetics, and I was glad that this is a vegan product. 👍 5 major irritation soothing for daily life - As described in the product description, it seemed to have an effect of immediately replenishing moisture and soothing irritation. It is made according to the standards for cosmetics that can be used by infants, so it seems safe for infants, adults, and those with sensitive skin to use. There were no problems with my skin during the use of the product.
Cons👎Stickiness - Due to the product's formulation characteristics, snails, yams, and mushrooms secrete a mucilaginous substance similar to glucomannan to protect themselves. Those sensitive to the formulation may find the stickiness undesirable. 👎Oiliness - After application, there may be a slight oily sensation. Those who do not prefer oiliness may find the product overly oily. 👎Fragrance - Personally, I prefer products with a pleasant fragrance rather than unscented or just the raw material scent. This aspect is slightly disappointing to me.
TipUsing this product as part of a nighttime routine, layering it with 2-3 other basic skincare items, I found my skin felt very moisturized the next morning. Even on days when I didn't have time for a full skincare regimen and just used this toner and product, my skin didn't feel dry. In our busy modern lives, having a product that can provide good hydration with just these two steps is truly a godsend.

The formulation has a viscous texture and applies well, absorbing into the skin! For dry skin, it may be a bit drying to use alone, so I layered it with other products! It's a great product to apply lightly~!
ConsThere were no issues or other symptoms after using the product :)
TipApply a light layer of night care in the beginning or layer it a few times during your skincare routine before makeup for going out - this is also recommended. :)

You can't even remember when the redness started, and your whole face was covered in flaky skin after being diagnosed with seborrheic dermatitis. Since then, you've been constantly searching Hwahae when buying cosmetics. 🌟No added fragrance or artificial coloring 🌟Passed sensitive skin irritation test The ingredients are indeed gentle! Even though your skin has recovered from the seborrheic dermatitis, you still can't tolerate fragrances, alcohol, or exfoliation. And since it's winter, you've been just washing with water, which has helped. These products should be suitable for your skin type as well, as they are truly gentle! The texture is a smooth, flowing one as shown in the photo, and while it's not exactly sticky at first, it gets absorbed quickly after a short while. If there are others out there who have also been diagnosed with seborrheic dermatitis, I hope my routine can be helpful for you.🥹 It turns out your skin was not only lacking in moisture, but also in oil. Your current routine of COSRX the 6 Peptide Skin Buster, Laneige Cream Skin, a ceramide ampoule, and the Skinfood Blue Chamomile Hyaluronic Cream has provided enough oil, and your skin has recovered over time. Of course, you also had to consistently see a dermatologist in the beginning.
ConsThe product is indeed gentle, but it doesn't seem to fully meet my skin's needs for moisture and oil. Adding this product to my skincare routine is possible, but then the number of products would become too many. I'm satisfied with my current routine, so I probably won't use it separately. However, I may use it in the summer! If I remember, I'll try it out and leave a review if I do.
TipAt first, I felt that the formulation was very similar to what the hospital prescribed when I was diagnosed with seborrheic dermatitis! I thought that even when my sensitive skin couldn't use any cosmetics and could only use water, I might be able to use it!? Recommendation for sensitive skin! (If you're not as dry as me, you'll probably be able to use it well 😃)

The essence formula is the standout feature of this product, with a thick, snail mucus-like texture🐌 It absorbs quickly and leaves the skin feeling moisturized💦 There was no irritation at all, and no breakouts! It's rare for me to want to repurchase a new product after trying it, but I will definitely be buying this one again☺️ It's that much of a satisfying product!!😀
ConsThere was nothing at all!😁 The snail mucus-like formulation feels a bit unfamiliar, I suppose?
TipI am applying it after the toner step.

It is similar to the aloe vera form. While it is a bit slippery, it absorbs quite quickly. The product is very gentle and non-irritating. After applying, it leaves a refreshing feeling. It is very suitable for use as a moisturizer for dry skin. The generous volume is also a plus. :)
ConsThey say it's odorless, but when I first used it, there was a slight scent like colored pencils(?). However, after using it for a few days, I got used to it quickly, so it seems that it's not an artificial fragrance. It's not an unpleasant scent, but it's not a sweet one either.
TipWhile the product is good for dry skin, it is not very effective at moisturizing. That's why I layer it 3-4 times when applying, but I mainly use it in the evenings as I'm usually busy in the mornings.

My skin is quite sensitive, so if I use the wrong skincare or cosmetics, I get itchy and breakouts come up quickly,,,, So I usually prefer products with tea tree ingredients or very gentle skincare and cleansers! ➕Texture The texture had a certain viscosity to it But when applied, there was no stickiness or anything, it spread smoothly on the skin! ➕Spreadability It applies well on the skin without any slippery feeling Instead, there's a slightly slippery sensation, so if you gently pat it in, the moisture gets absorbed even better! ➕Moisturizing Since I have oily skin, my skin gets dry in the winter But with a mist + toner + VT essence + moisturizer, it was just perfect! The essence has a certain viscosity, so it feels like it's really locking in the moisture ㅎㅎ ➕Ingredients Based on the Hwahae app, it's completely free of 20 major concerning ingredients and allergens!! I didn't experience any breakouts or issues while using it ㅎㅎㅎ
ConsAccording to other reviews, the fragrance seems a bit lacking, as I am quite sensitive to fragrances. There is a slight hint of glue-like scent...!
