It applies smoothly and absorbs exceptionally well, which is why I've made it a part of my nightly routine. I've been using it for about a week since receiving it, and I love how it keeps my skin hydrated until the next morning. As someone with combination dehydrated skin, I particularly appreciate its lightweight feel without any stickiness.
ConsThe price point might feel a bit steep, which could be disappointing for those who prioritize value for money.
TipFor better absorption, I recommend cleansing your face thoroughly and balancing it with a toner before applying the cream!

It feels slightly rich, but not sticky or heavy. It's like a thin coating that locks in hydration, leaving my face feeling smooth and pleasant. - It absorbs well too. When I apply it at night and wake up in the morning, my skin feels adequately moisturized. The initial rich feeling disappears completely. There's no pilling when applying. - I have acne-prone skin with blemishes, but after using it every other day for a week, I didn't get any new breakouts. In fact, my skin looked better. It's not irritating at all, and I think the gentle exfoliation of dead skin cells might have helped. - I love the hygienic packaging that dispenses just the right amount! *Note: This is my first time using a retinal cream, so I don't have anything to compare it to...
ConsAt first, they said to use it every other day... But I only got to apply it 4 times during the testing period.... The Hwahae Testers are supposed to test for 2 weeks, but they didn't give us 2 weeks. Why....

Since retinal products are particularly prone to oxidation, many brands address this issue by narrowing the container opening. This product, however, uses an airless container, which shows thoughtful design. 🔅Texture The texture is like a soft whipped cream - just right. It pumps out easily and absorbs beautifully. 🔅No irritation Retinal products often require an adjustment period due to potential irritation. Surprisingly, when I first applied this, I thought, 'Huh? I don't feel any irritation...' Even after some time, I didn't experience any discomfort. Despite my sensitive skin, I was able to use it nightly without an adaptation period. 🔅Effectiveness Truthfully, it's hard to see significant effects on wrinkles or firmness in a short time - these usually require long-term use. However, I noticed an immediate improvement in my complexion and skin texture after just one day. The photo shows my skin the morning after using the product at night, and the results are impressively quick. 🔅Repurchase Seeing these effects, I definitely think this product is worth using long-term. I'm likely to repurchase when I run out.
ConsI honestly can't think of any significant drawbacks to mention.
TipIt might not qualify as a pro tip, but I used this product as a replacement for my essence step.

As someone with super sensitive skin, I usually notice changes like breakouts or dryness when switching cosmetics. However, this cream, free from 20 harmful ingredients and potential allergens, didn't cause any blemishes. I have extremely dry skin, so I layered toner and serum before applying a thin layer of this cream as a final step. The absorbs well, combats dryness, and improves skin elasticity - I'm really satisfied with it! What's more, unlike typical open-jar creams, this one has a unique container design that minimizes air contact, allowing for more hygienic use. I found this feature quite innovative and impressive!
ConsThis aspect could be seen as both a pro and a con: while the container is too large and heavy to be travel-friendly, its generous size means you won't need to repurchase frequently. Depending on your preferences, this could be viewed as either an advantage or a disadvantage. Additionally, since this product is richer in oils than hydration, I wouldn't recommend it for those with oily skin types!

The packaging is unique and sleek. The cream has that characteristic yellow tint of retinal products, but it applies like an emulsion - thin, absorbs well, and has great spreadability. I'd highly recommend this to anyone concerned about fine lines, pores, or skin texture!
ConsThere wasn't anything particularly disappointing, but I did wonder if they might consider switching to a simpler container design, even though the current one is pretty and unique.
TipWhen you first start using retinal, you might experience some peeling of dead skin cells and redness, which can be irritating. If this happens, it's best to pause usage and apply a gentle hydrating moisturizer instead to give your skin a break.

Cons✓ It would have been more reassuring if the packaging consistently used either 'retinal' or 'retinaldehyde' in its labeling. ✓ While it's said to contain caffeine, which I've found effective for morning puffiness, retinal is more suitable for nighttime use. It might have been better if these were separated into two different products.
Tip✓ As someone with super dry skin, I found it convenient and beneficial to mix the product directly with facial oil on the back of my hand before applying.

I'm excited to test it out! Plus, the packaging is fantastic. It's specially designed to protect the retinol from air exposure, which is a common issue. It's also super hygienic! The cream absorbs well, provides good hydration, and feels great on the skin.
ConsIf I had to nitpick, I'd say it's hard to see how much product is left in the container.
TipA few years ago, I used a retinol cream to get rid of some skin tags. Now I'm targeting both neck wrinkles and skin tags with this - let's see how it goes!

My parents and I loved it, and they were satisfied too! It applies incredibly smoothly, making it easy to use. However, as it's quite creamy, I mainly use it at night rather than before makeup. Packaging: The pump dispenser that releases small amounts was convenient to use, and I appreciated the clean design. Plus, the product I received had a generous expiration date. Effectiveness: This was my first time trying a retinol product, and it seemed pretty good. Being in my 20s without many wrinkles, I didn't notice any dramatic changes, but I've been using it to maintain skin elasticity as a preventive measure. If I experience more noticeable effects with long-term use, I'll come back to update my review!
ConsI can't think of any particular drawbacks. Rather than disadvantages, there's just a point of caution: Please be aware that retinol might not suit everyone's skin, so it's important to check that first.
TipAs I have blemish-prone skin, I'm using very small amounts. For those with severe acne, it might be wise to research how retinol interacts with your skin type before incorporating it into your routine.

The cream itself spreads smoothly without feeling heavy, making it suitable even for my combination skin. ✅ Hydration & Skin Texture Improvement After using it every evening for a week, I noticed my skin texture became smoother and more hydrated. It absorbs well into the skin without leaving any dryness, making it comfortable to use even in winter. ✅ Wrinkle & Pore Improvement While it didn't dramatically erase wrinkles, I did notice that my skin surface appeared more refined and softer compared to before use! As for pore improvement, I'll need to continue using it to see long-term results. ✅ Packaging Design The clean design makes it user-friendly. One pump dispenses just the right amount, making it hassle-free and hygienic to use. ✅ Overall Impression Entering my 30s, I've become more conscious of pores and wrinkles, so I'm really satisfied to have found such a great product! I'm looking forward to seeing even better results with continued use. I highly recommend this to anyone looking to improve skin texture or achieve a moisturized finish.
ConsSince it suited my skin well without causing any tingling or blemishes, I don't have any complaints

The texture feels like a mix between an ointment and a cream! It absorbed well and was easy to apply. The finish leaves a thin oily film, which worried me as my forehead and T-zone are oily, but surprisingly, by the next morning my skin felt baby-soft and had absorbed it completely. There's no particular scent, but if you apply it thickly, your face might look a bit yellow. So I wouldn't recommend it before makeup or going out. Since it's also sensitive to light, I suggest using it only at night before bed. While it's too early to speak about long-term effects, the morning after my first use was the most shocking... I have a lot of texture and dead skin cells, and while the texture didn't disappear completely, my skin felt incredibly smooth. I didn't even need to exfoliate, and there was no flaking during makeup application, which was amazing. I have blemish-prone skin with pustules, whiteheads, blackheads, and small bumps, but I didn't experience any worsening of blemishes. In fact, I noticed my sebum production on my nose and chin seemed to be improving. I hope with consistent use it will help with my main concerns: forehead texture and fine lines. Now I apply it every night, and it makes me look forward to seeing my skin's condition in the morning. It's become quite the miracle worker!
ConsI don't have any complaints yet! If I really had to nitpick... maybe that in an effort to minimize side effects, it might take more consistent use to see dramatic results? But for me, that's actually a plus!
Tip- Since I have blemish-prone skin, I made sure to cleanse gently every morning. - Also, because the usage cycle of Retinal 700 is quite long, using this cream for skincare during that period works wonderfully. My skin is in top condition for all 7 days. Just make sure to start using it from the evening of the next day to avoid overstimulating your skin.
