It's similar to a typical moisturizer. When you touch it, it feels slightly light rather than heavy. As a result, it applies better than regular moisturizers. A small amount spreads easily. Hydration and Moisture: It's richer than expected. I thought it would feel very hydrating due to its light texture, but it actually feels quite nourishing. It might suit combination or dry skin types better than oily skin. The product description mentions it's for people in their 30s and 40s, and it does provide good moisture, making it ideal for those with typically dry skin. Soothing and Irritation: Despite having sensitive skin, I didn't experience any blemishes after use. There was no skin irritation like itching or redness. I was worried about the rich finish, but fortunately, it didn't cause any blemishes. Recommended Skin Type: This would be great for people who typically have dry skin.
ConsScent: The scent reminds me of old-fashioned cosmetics. Personally, I disliked the somewhat artificial fragrance. I think it would have been better without any added fragrance. Finish: It feels quite rich, so it leaves the skin slightly oily after application. It's not sticky, but it makes the skin feel a bit slippery, as if coated with something. I personally prefer a fresh finish, so I found this aspect a bit disappointing. It might be better suited for fall or winter use rather than the warmer spring or summer months.

It's moisturizing and gentle on the skin. The texture is slightly thick, similar to a sleeping mask. It feels more rich than other moisturizers, giving the impression that it locks in hydration. While it doesn't absorb incredibly fast, it's not uncomfortable to use. When my skin is very dry, I sometimes apply two layers. Applying three layers can make it feel too oily and cause pilling, so I usually apply one layer, let it absorb, and then apply another if needed.
ConsThe scent is a bit disappointing. It smells a bit like old-fashioned cosmetics. I'm not sure if it's because I'm particularly sensitive to smells right now, but I find it slightly off-putting. My husband, however, says it's fine and uses it without any issues.
TipIt works better as an overnight treatment than a day cream. When applied before bed like a sleeping mask, it leaves your skin plump and hydrated.

It's great that there's no stickiness too!
ConsThe artificial fragrance is a bit off-putting... That's really the only downside I can think of.
TipJust apply it as you would normally.

Being prone to combination dehydrated skin, I usually dislike creams that produce excess oil. However, I loved how this Soonicream provides hydration without making my skin overly oily! <User Experience> Initially, it feels a bit rich, but once absorbed, the moisturizing effect remains while the oiliness subsides. However, compared to other moisturizers designed for oily skin types, Soonicream doesn't leave a completely matte finish... So it might feel a bit heavy for those with oily skin during summer, but it should be fine to use in other seasons without much concern! <Use on Airplanes> I especially loved using this on a dry airplane. After washing my face, I applied a generous amount before sleeping, and my skin stayed hydrated throughout! In conclusion, I'd recommend this to everyone except those with extremely oily skin!!!
ConsIf I had to nitpick, maybe the scent...? It smells slightly like men's toner... But that's really stretching it. Honestly, I didn't find any significant downsides.
TipI mainly used this in the evening! It seems better suited for nighttime use before bed rather than during the day. As someone with combination dehydrated skin, I found this works well for me!

ConsHas a slight cool water men's cologne scent mixed with a refreshing natural aroma and a hint of coconut. Personally not a fan, but fortunately, the scent is very faint Applies smoothly but doesn't absorb immediately Feels a bit heavy for daytime use Expected a thicker consistency, but it spreads more thinly than anticipated While not overly expensive, there might be better alternatives
TipRecommended for nighttime skincare during spring and autumn

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've been using it for about 4 days now. While there haven't been any dramatic changes, it definitely tackles deep dryness. It seems perfect for winter, and I love that it's in a tube, which makes it more hygienic. The ingredients are great too.
ConsI'm noticing a very slight tendency for blemishes to surface... It's a bit touch-and-go, so I'll need to use it longer to be sure. The absorption could be better - you're supposed to pat it in bit by bit, but that alone doesn't do the trick. You need to massage it in for a while before it absorbs. Also, the scent is a bit disappointing, reminiscent of men's skincare products.
TipI apply just a small amount of Soon Jung 43 Cream, then layer on a generous amount of a non-greasy hydrating moisturizer.

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.ProsThe packaging is clean and intuitive without any unnecessary frills. The product comes in a tube that matches the color of the outer box. I love that it's in a tube form, making it easy to control the amount and use hygienically. True to its claim of being effective for strengthening the skin barrier with key ingredients like panthenol and ceramide NP, it was really great for hydration. It absorbs well without feeling greasy, making it an excellent base before makeup.
ConsWhile there weren't any inconveniences in using it, the scent might be a bit polarizing. Personally, it reminded me of my mother's cold cream, which I wasn't too fond of.
TipI found it works wonderfully as an overnight mask alternative when I mix it with jojoba oil and apply it generously before bed. Slathering it on the lips is also effective in reducing dead skin cells and keeping them moisturized.

There's a definite sense of hydration, but after absorption, there's also a coating feeling of richness. As someone in their 20s with combination dehydrated super sensitive skin, I found it a bit unsuitable for the current seasonal change. It might be great for dry skin types. The slight oiliness makes it appropriate for targeting those in their 30s and 40s. It seems it would be more useful transitioning from autumn to winter. ✔ Absorption & application It applies smoothly and absorbs well. It spreads in a layer that's neither too thin nor too thick - just right. ✔ Packaging I really liked the gradient of pastel blue and white colors. ✔ Overall impression As a cosmetic designed for those in their 30s & 40s, it's a moisturizer that age group would appreciate. With its slightly higher oil content and ample hydration, it's good for addressing deep dryness. However, rather than using it myself as someone in my 20s, I gave it to my mom, and she's been using it well without any feeling of dryness.
Cons✔ Scent It has a somewhat sensual scent, reminiscent of mom's cosmetics or perfume. The fragrance is subtle and not overly bothersome, but if you're sensitive to scents, you might want to avoid it.

I applied two ampoules first, followed by the Soonee43 cream, and finished with sunscreen. After applying the cream, I didn't experience any dryness or discomfort at all. In fact, it felt like it created a protective layer, making the sunscreen absorb even better. Even when I occasionally wore makeup, it didn't pill or flake - it was amazing! Now, you might wonder if it's sticky or greasy. Absolutely not! This is the part I really want to recommend. It feels like it creates a thin layer on your skin, but it finishes with a soft, matte feel that I love! Can you see it in the photos? The cream absorbs smoothly with a great texture, leaving your skin feeling silky (it's the best...). Definitely worth every penny I spent on it!
ConsThe scent has a sort of healthy smell... some people might think it smells a bit medicinal! Personally, I didn't find the fragrance bothersome.

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've been using this for about 10 days now. I have dry skin and tend to get more whiteheads than pustular acne. Absorption: It applies smoothly, just like a regular cream. Absorption: It absorbs well without leaving any oily residue, probably because of my dry skin. Quantity: Sufficient. Should last 1.5-2 months (when used only at night). After-use review: No breakouts at all, and I can really feel my skin becoming smoother the next day. I was a bit worried about the strong cosmetic scent, but it's actually very gentle when applied. Due to my dry skin, I apply in this order: toner-serum-emulsion-cream-nourishing cream. But with this cream, my skin feels so much softer... It's definitely thanks to this product, as it's the only thing I changed in my routine. To be honest, I had no expectations as I'd never heard of this cream before, but I'm amazed at how good it is. Thanks to The Hwahae Testers event, I've found several holy grail products. If I can use up this whole jar without any issues and it continues to work this well, I think I'll settle on this as my go-to cream.
ConsThe only downside, if any, is that the scent is a bit artificial, like typical cosmetics.
TipIt seems fine to apply only at night.
