It doesn't run when applied to both cheeks and stays in place. The consistency is quite rich. Application: It rolls on smoothly, but due to its rich consistency, there's a noticeable rich feel. For dry skin, this provides a nice moisturizing effect, but it might be a bit too much for oily skin types. You need to massage it in thoroughly for better absorption. There's no stickiness, which is great, but it might be a bit heavy for summer use. It provides adequate hydration and absorbs well, making it comfortable to use without needing multiple layers to feel moisturized. Scent: There's a slight cosmetic fragrance, which isn't irritating, but it could do without it. This product seems more suitable for dry skin than oily skin types.
ConsDue to its rich consistency, you need to massage it in until it's fully absorbed, which takes some time. It might be better if it were slightly thinner in consistency. That way, it would likely suit oily skin types better as well.

Application: The dropper makes it convenient to apply without dripping, and it spreads easily with a gentle massage, instantly transforming into an ampoule-like texture. Absorption: Absorbs well! Being a hydrating product, it may feel dry if used alone. For best results, apply 1-2 layers after toner, followed by an emulsion. Even with multiple layers, it doesn't pill or leave a residue, absorbing nicely into the skin. Scent: Personally, I love the subtle floral cosmetic scent! It's not overpowering and should be pleasant for most users.
ConsThe ampoule has a truly beautiful blue color, but if only the product container were transparent... we could better appreciate this ethereal ampoule. The packaging is a bit disappointing.
TipFor those with dry skin like mine, try applying it twice! The more you massage it in, the more intense the hydration feels.

Hydration: On the first day, it feels like it absorbs quickly, but the finish is more tacky than moisturizing. However, from day 5 onwards, it feels hydrating and moisture-replenishing! It's a product that becomes more promising with continued use. Absorption: It sinks in immediately with a slightly tacky finish on the surface. Cooling effect: At first, I wondered what this refreshing sensation was, but it turned out to be the cooling effect. Perfect after a shower on a hot day! Moisturizing: Great for use in hot summer! Makeup applies well over it (It has a bouncy finish but doesn't pill!). Scent: Although fragrance is clearly listed in the ingredients, they might have aimed for an unscented product. There's a slightly unusual smell, but it shouldn't be an issue unless you're sensitive. It's better than a strong, unpleasant scent. Personally, I like it.
ConsRather than a downside, I found it puzzling that some reviewers mentioned a floral scent while others said it was unscented. Personally, I prefer the current seemingly unscented feel.
TipIn the morning, apply two layers, allow some time for absorption, then apply makeup - it works wonderfully! Great for makeup application!

Scent and application: Ever smelled toilet paper? It's like that, with a hint of floral. As for application, it's a bit clumpier than other serums. When you put it on your face, it doesn't run but sits in little clusters. Don't worry though - it spreads easily with a gentle massage! True to its name, this serum is a hydration powerhouse! As someone with combination dehydrated skin, I usually layer multiple hydrating products, but this one packs enough moisture in a single application. No need for excessive layering! However, my trial period was too short to notice any significant improvement in blemishes. I'm prone to breakouts when trying new products, but this one didn't cause any noticeable blemishes. Unless you have a specific sensitivity to an ingredient, I think this serum would work well for most people!
ConsIf you're sensitive to fragrances, you might find this challenging to use. Also, due to its slightly clumpy texture, it may take a bit longer to absorb into the skin.

I have slight acne scars. As I age, I worry about deep dryness, so I always make sure to apply a hydrating serum. I was glad to try the Mamonde Calming Shot Azulene Trace Serum Ampoule this time! Here are the characteristics I noticed while using it: The texture is quite rich for an ampoule. It has a dense feel, so when you drop it directly on your face with the dropper, it doesn't run, allowing for a clean application! However, because the ampoule drops are quite dense, you need to pat it in well with your hands after spreading it. It feels cooler and more hydrating. And the moisturizing effect lasts long. I haven't felt any tightness in my face all day. The scent is barely noticeable! Maybe it's unscented? The ampoule has a slight blue tint.
ConsPerhaps because the texture is heavier than typical ampoules, or maybe because it feels slightly oily, there was a sticky feeling rather than a fresh sensation after application. The pumping also felt heavy. But these are extremely minor drawbacks. I don't think there are any real cons for my skin?

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 texture is thinner than expected, which makes it absorb really well. When you pat it onto your skin, it quickly sinks in, and then the texture transforms into a plump, elastic feel. It doesn't feel like it's drying, but rather like it's creating a layer on your skin. So while it feels light when applying, it doesn't feel overly lightweight once it's on your skin. The dropper is slightly bent at the tip, which prevents the product from dripping out all at once. This made it incredibly convenient to use.
ConsI haven't finished a whole bottle yet, so I'm not sure, but if you buy this expecting dramatic results for blemishes, you might be slightly disappointed. However, its soothing and hydrating effects are excellent, making it great for use during seasonal changes.
TipIn the evening, layering it twice seems to make it noticeably more moisturizing. I recommend applying it once, letting it absorb, and then applying a second layer.

It's great for layering. 〰️Hydration Might not be enough for dry skin types and could feel a bit sticky for oily skin. As someone with combination dehydrated skin, 1-2 layers were just right for me.
Cons〰️Irritation My philtrum area is quite sensitive, and I felt a burning sensation there after applying the product. Looking at the ingredients, niacinamide is quite high up on the list, which might be the cause. Those with super sensitive skin might find it irritating. 〰️Blemish care I had high hopes for the azulene ingredient to help with blemishes, but I didn't see any noticeable effects during The Hwahae Testers period. It's disappointing that there doesn't seem to be much azulene in it. 〰️Scent I can't pinpoint the exact smell, but there's a slight artificial, chemical, petroleum-like scent.
TipIt felt like a pretty average hydrating serum.

It's super hydrating due to its high moisture content. Being a water-jelly type, it's moisturizing and absorbs quickly into the skin. It seems perfect for solving deep dryness and providing a cooling effect. The finish is fresh with no stickiness at all. As the weather got drier, I noticed dead skin cells on my face, but after applying this several times, my skin became smooth and the dryness disappeared. Personally, niacinamide works well for my skin, so I'm excited about its potential to reduce pigmentation! The packaging is adorably pretty. I love the marbled lid - it's such a nice touch. I noticed Braille on the back of the box, which made me feel the brand is really thoughtful.
ConsThe dropper might make it difficult to use up all the product without leaving residue.
TipIf you layer it multiple times, it might pill, so it's best to apply just one layer in the morning when you need to put on makeup.

After cleansing and prepping my skin with toner, I used the dropper to apply the ampoule. Surprisingly, it had a thicker consistency compared to typical ampoules! It's not runny like water-based ones, but has a unique texture that's quite intriguing. I was curious about how well it would absorb, but upon application, it felt wonderfully cool and enveloping on my skin. While it doesn't absorb instantly, it leaves your face feeling deeply hydrated and plump, immediately addressing any deep dryness. Highly recommended for those with dry skin! Another aspect I loved is the inclusion of azulene, known for its soothing properties. Perhaps that's why my face felt so refreshingly cool, effectively calming any irritation by lowering skin temperature. I think it could even help with redness. After two weeks of use, while I haven't noticed significant spot reduction, my overall complexion seems brighter. With 4% niacinamide, I'm excited to see continued brightening effects with consistent use. In any case, this ampoule makes me happy every time I use it - it's just so cute!
ConsDue to its thicker consistency, it can be a bit challenging to draw up with the dropper, often requiring multiple pumps.
TipFor best results, try layering it twice. This will leave your skin deeply hydrated, plump, and free from any deep dryness, giving you that moisture-rich complexion.

First off, this ampoule isn't a watery formula, but more of a hydrating cream-like texture! The moment you apply it, it feels moisturizing with a subtle floral scent, which I found lovely. The fragrance is a bit stronger compared to other products, but I personally liked it! Since it's not a runny formula, it was easy to apply. It absorbs quickly when you gently pat it in, which I appreciated. I usually apply toner and ampoule before drying my hair, and even after blow-drying, my skin still feels sufficiently hydrated. I sometimes get blemishes and worry about the marks they leave, and while this product claims to target those marks, I'm not sure about its effectiveness in that regard. However, I did notice my complexion seemed slightly brighter.
ConsBecause of its cream-like consistency, it was a bit difficult to draw up the product with the dropper in one go. I think a pump bottle might have been more convenient. As for its effectiveness on marks, I'm not really sure. Also, if you apply too much, your skin might feel a bit heavy... A moderate amount is sufficient! It does take a little time to absorb, so I pat it in to help with absorption.
TipI spread it out widely once, let it absorb fully, and then apply my moisturizer! If you make sure it's well-absorbed, the hydration is really impressive. Just be careful not to apply too much, as it might not absorb properly and sit on top of the skin. Finding the right amount is key.
