  Pros

  - Texture: Colorless, transparent, and gel-like consistency that feels slippery to the touch - Scent: Initially, there's a slight silicone-like scent, but it's only noticeable at first and becomes unnoticeable later on - Application: Due to its slippery texture, it doesn't absorb instantly, but with a bit of gentle massaging, it hydrates and absorbs well into the skin The gel-like texture gives a moisturizing feeling, filling the skin with hydration. At first, I thought it might be sticky, but once absorbed, there was no stickiness at all. As someone with super sensitive skin, I felt a slight tingling sensation when I first used it, but it was fine with continued use

  Cons

  Due to its unique texture, it doesn't absorb quickly, and there's a bit of richness to it, which was slightly disappointing

  Pros

  I've been using this product for about a week now. The texture is similar to aloe vera gel - it's a bit slippery, but absorbs faster than I expected. The product is very gentle and doesn't cause any irritation. After application, there's a refreshing sensation. It's an excellent choice for combating deep dryness. I also appreciate the generous amount you get.

  Cons

  While it's marketed as fragrance-free, I did notice a slight scent reminiscent of colored pencils when I first used it. However, after a few days of use, I quickly got used to it, which makes me think it's not an artificial fragrance. The scent isn't unpleasant, but it's not exactly fresh either.

  Tip

  Although this product is good for deep hydration, it's not particularly effective for intense moisturizing. As a result, I find myself layering it 3-4 times. Due to my busy mornings, I mainly use it in the evening.

  Pros

  Comprehensive review after use: The texture is slippery, like a runny nose. When tested on the back of my hand, it created a glossy, moisture-barrier-like coating that quickly absorbed over time. It's particularly effective at combating deep dryness! Unlike some serums that can cause eye irritation or facial redness when applied incorrectly, I didn't experience any of these issues. Since it's safe for infants, I confidently slathered it on despite my super sensitive skin. It doesn't feel overly rich, making it suitable for use throughout all seasons.

  Cons

  Due to the absence of fragrance, the scent isn't particularly pleasant. When applying makeup, there's a slight pilling effect, though this might be due to my poor application technique...

  Tip

  For enhanced soothing effects, try storing it in the refrigerator and applying after cleansing.

  Pros

  I was lucky enough to win The Hwahae Testers experience and try this product! First off, I loved that it comes in a 100ml size, allowing for generous use. The packaging design is also sleek and clean. I personally think packaging is important - it makes me want to reach for the product more often. The pump-type dispenser is a convenient touch too. Application: It has a slippery, mucus-like texture that's incredibly smooth. I even used it as a massage serum. Absorption: The absorption? It's surprisingly good! I thought the slippery texture might hinder absorption, but it was quite the opposite. It absorbs really well, filling the skin with hydration and leaving it plump (which might feel slightly sticky to some). Recommended skin types: The product is gentle and non-irritating, so I think it's suitable for all skin types! However, it might not feel as comfortable for extremely oily skin. It's great for dry, combination dehydrated, combination, and blemish-prone skin (I experienced no irritation with blemishes). I highly recommend checking the ingredient list before use!

  Cons

  Once you get used to the unique texture of this product, there were no issues. It didn't cause any blemishes or irritation, and there was no redness or flushing. I didn't experience any allergic reactions either! It was truly gentle.

  Tip

  After applying a light hydrating serum, I didn't need to use a cream (meaning it's sufficiently nourishing and moisturizing to replace a cream). It worked great as a massage serum too - gentle and smooth with no irritation. Pro tip: It pairs wonderfully with at-home beauty devices, giving your face a beautiful glow!

  Pros

  I have combination skin - extremely dry on my cheeks but oily in the T-zone. While I don't get many blemishes, my cheeks are so dry that I've been using heavy creams or oils. However, there's not much I can do about the oil in my T-zone. This product, though, satisfied both areas! The texture is incredibly light, almost water-like, but feels silky smooth like oil when applied. I thought it would take forever to absorb, but wow, it absorbs well! My skin drinks it up instantly, leaving it hydrated without any tightness. It seems perfect for combination dehydrated skin like mine. I have mild eczema, and this gentle formula didn't cause any tingling or tightness. I think I even noticed a slight brightening effect, though it might be my imagination. I immediately brought it to keep at the gym! After absorption, it leaves a slightly powdery finish - not sticky or slippery, and my hair doesn't stick to my face. It's a feel-good product that I'll definitely repurchase when I run out!!!

  Cons

  While it's convenient to use, I wish there was a refill option since I'll be using it often. The plastic lid makes the packaging feel wasteful.

  Tip

  For those with super dry skin, try using a toner first for even quicker, smoother skincare!

  Pros

  The texture has a slight viscosity, but it's not runny like mucus - just a bit slippery? It absorbs quickly. There's a noticeable floral scent, but it's not overly artificial, so it's quite pleasant. I have sensitive skin and often get contact dermatitis from products that don't suit me, but this didn't cause any issues. So it might be good for those with super sensitive skin too. I applied it after toner and serum, but before my moisturizer, and it felt like it created a nice, firm coating on my skin. It's great that there's a generous amount for an essence!

  Cons

  I had high hopes for its skin-soothing effects, but... hmm, I'm not so sure about that. It does seem to improve skin texture, but I can't really say it soothes the skin as advertised. If you're looking to firm up your skin texture, this might be a good choice.

  Pros

  From scalp to face to whole body, I have extremely dry skin. Most products that claim to be moisturizing usually feel too light for me. 1. Hydration power This is my first time using a product with glucamine. It provides lasting moisture even for dry skin. You can feel that the surface is soft while the deeper layers remain hydrated, even after some time has passed. 2. Texture The texture is slippery when applied but finishes with a quick-absorbing feel. After it's absorbed a bit, the surface might feel slightly dry, but there's still a moisturized sensation underneath. 3. Scent I'm quite sensitive to smells, and with most vegan fragrance-free products, I often find the natural scent of ingredients overwhelming. However, this product has a fresh, medicinal scent. It's like applying a soothing ointment to your skin, which I actually enjoy.

  Cons

  My mom, who has combination dehydrated skin, found it powdery, while I, with my dry skin, felt it was a bit drying. However, since serum is usually followed by cream in a skincare routine, applying the cream before the serum fully dries solved this issue.

  Tip

  I recommend this for both combination dehydrated and dry skin types. However, those with dry skin should follow up quickly with a cream to lock in moisture on the surface.

  Pros

  After using it for two weeks, my skin feels smooth and has a radiant glow! It's safe to use with children too. - Texture: It has a sticky, mucus-like consistency that stretches like fresh aloe vera or seaweed extract. - Absorption: Despite its slippery texture that might seem like it won't absorb, it sinks in quickly. You'll be surprised at how fast it disappears into the skin. As someone with extremely dry skin, when I use it alone, it feels like it fills the inner layers but the surface still feels a bit dry. - Skin types: For dry skin, it's best to follow up with an oil-based or rich cream. People with oily skin will probably love this!

  Cons

  Due to its stretchy texture, if you dispense it onto your hand, you need to apply it to your face quickly. If you pump it directly onto your face, you might spill a bit.

  Tip

  For extremely dry skin, when using heavy oils or moisturizers, they can sometimes look greasy later. But when you use this essence first, it seems to absorb the excess oil? The oily shine disappears, replaced by a smooth glow. I use S Nature Squalane Cream, which can look oily during the day when used alone. But on days I use this essence, it's like I've applied just aloe gel - at some point, it maintains a glow while looking smooth. For dry skin: Use essence, then oil-based or rich cream For oily skin: Use essence, then emulsion or light moisturizer *Highly recommended for those who feel their face is too oily - you'll be satisfied with this essence!

  Pros

  My skin type: Combination dehydrated + super sensitive skin (even slightly irritating or oily products immediately cause redness or blemish outbreaks) - The texture feels slippery with a slight stickiness, like fresh aloe vera, but it absorbs quickly when applied. There's a faint medicinal scent, but it's not bothersome - it's close to being fragrance-free. - There's absolutely no irritation, and it absorbs instantly upon application, which made me think it's truly gentle. It might not provide enough hydration for those with dry skin, but it could be great for people with combination dehydrated, oily, or sensitive skin to manage deep dryness.

  Cons

  Given how gentle it is, it might be difficult to expect significant changes. It's best to use this product with the mindset that it will add a gentle, moisturizing touch to your skincare routine.

  Tip

  A second layer of hydration is essential!

  Pros

  Here's my honest review after using it for over a week. Used by ages 5, 8, and 30s! - When I first saw the texture, I thought, 'Huh, snail cream?' Coincidentally, we have pet snails at home... it reminded me of their mucus, so I found the texture intriguing. - It stretches and feels slippery. - But when you apply it, it absorbs well!!!!! - The kids' skin is naturally moist, so there was a slight glow right after application. They tend to scratch their skin a lot, but using this essence definitely reduced the frequency of scratching! 👍 - As for me in my 30s... my skin tends to crack, so... 😢 It absorbed quickly, leaving my face feeling soft and supple (I applied it to my face!!) Unlike other essences, it doesn't leave a shine on the face but absorbs completely, really eliminating deep dryness. It was amazing! - It's fragrance-free. - Every time I applied it, I felt like 'Wow, this is really gentle.' There's no irritation at all. - You might wonder if it's moisturizing, but there's no dryness... that's also surprising lol

  Cons

  Neither the children nor I experienced any blemishes. The container... the pump seems to work well, but also doesn't? It feels slightly stiff! Apart from the container, it's fine~
