Some hydrating serums can be slow to absorb, but this one was easy to work with. After absorption, it leaves no sticky residue, making it perfect as a daily skincare item! Deep hydration: I think this serum really tackles deep dryness! Some products only focus on surface hydration, but this one feels like it's moisturizing from within. After two weeks of use, I didn't experience any particular skin tightness even after cleansing! I'm also satisfied with the simple, clean ingredient list that's focused solely on hydration.
ConsMy skin produced more oil than usual. I had to manage it with blotting papers throughout the day. It was quite intense on the first day and although it decreased, there was still an overall feeling of increased oiliness... While it's decent, I'm disappointed that there's nothing particularly compelling about this product.

As someone with dry skin, it effectively addressed my deep dryness, keeping my skin comfortable without any tightness all day, even when applied before makeup. The texture is light and smooth, absorbing quickly into the skin. This makes it perfect for layering without feeling heavy. After use, my skin texture became noticeably smoother. With 8 types of hyaluronic acid and a 6-type ceramide complex, it strengthens the moisture barrier effectively. Thanks to the Jeju Marine Complex, it also calmed my sensitive skin without any irritation. What I loved: • Dual moisturizing effect that hydrates from deep within • Quick absorption + non-sticky finish • A gentle, vegan ampoule suitable even for sensitive skin days • Excellent moisture retention (stays hydrated until night without tightness!) Overall, this product truly lives up to the saying 'leaves only moisture behind'! I'd highly recommend it as a daily hydrating ampoule. I was so satisfied that I found myself wishing they'd release a larger size in the future.
ConsIt was such a pleasant and easy-to-use product that I honestly can't think of any downsides.

I received the product on April 29th and have been using it as the first step in my skincare routine, morning and evening, after cleansing with toner since April 30th. First impression - The packaging is sleek, and the color gives off a refreshing vibe that promises to pack a hydrating punch. I started using it with high expectations. Texture - It has a typical serum/ampoule consistency, slightly more fluid than water. It applies smoothly and absorbs quite quickly. For reference, I use a device to help with absorption. Usage - Depending on the weather, I apply 1-3 layers. After two layers, my skin feels deeply hydrated. I follow up with Mela-lab and niacinamide, and I'm satisfied with how smooth everything feels. For context, my skin isn't particularly sensitive, but it's on the thinner side, combination leaning slightly dry. While it might be a bit early to judge after just over a week of use, it hasn't caused any blemishes and absorbs well. I think it'll be great for use during this season of big temperature fluctuations and even into summer.
ConsI don't have any particular complaints, but I do wish we had been given more time to use the product before writing this review. However, I'm satisfied with it so far and would recommend it to those with similar skin types.

The gentle yet powerful hydrating effect is noticeable from the moment you apply it. It feels like laying a non-sticky seaweed sheet on your skin, if you can imagine that. The Jeju volcanic seawater, a key ingredient, seems to work wonders in quickly supplying moisture and strengthening the skin barrier with its rich minerals. The dual moisturizing system keeps your skin hydrated from the inside out, which is especially effective during seasonal changes or in dry weather. Thanks to the hyaluronic acid content, it helps create that coveted dewy look - your skin will have a beautiful glow! I also appreciate that it comes in a fully recyclable paper box, showing consideration for the environment with its vegan certification and eco-friendly packaging.
ConsIf I had to point out a downside... The price point is a bit high. At around $15 for 55ml, it might seem pricier compared to other ampoules. However, considering its effectiveness and quality, I believe it's worth the investment.

As someone with adult acne-prone skin, I often experience flaky dead skin cells and heat around major blemishes. So when products have harsh ingredients or don't suit me, I usually feel a strong tingling sensation. However, Millba Lab's Hydrating Ampoule feels moisturizing when applied, and it provides deep hydration while keeping my skin comfortable. The absorbed finish is so clean that when used in the morning, it creates the perfect canvas for makeup *_* ✔ Ingredients It contains Jeju volcanic seawater to provide moisture to dry skin, and I can totally vouch for that. It not only hydrates the surface but also tackles deep dryness. I thought, 'Oh, this is good!' and when I looked into the ingredients, I found it contains vegan hyaluronic acid. It also has Jeju Marine Complex...? which is said to alleviate skin tightness. Above all, I love that it doesn't sting when I apply it! ✔ Effects First off, it's definitely a makeup-friendly ampoule! It absorbs well into my skin and doesn't sting even when applied to blemish-prone areas. Since you can layer it multiple times, my skin feels deeply hydrated :) I'm using it with complete satisfaction! After trying it for two weeks, I feel like I've already used half the bottle *_*
ConsThere are no downsides, but I wish it came in a larger size!!

After using it for about 15 days, I'm impressed! The silky texture, hydration, and moisturizing power really stood out to me. Knowing it's made with Jeju marine ingredients like Gelidium Cartilagineum (Irish moss), sea trumpet, hijiki, and green laver extracts, it feels like an eco-friendly cosmetic ampoule essence. It's great! The dropper packaging is practical and clean. As a 61-year-old housewife with combination skin, I highly recommend this product for its excellent moisturizing effects and hydration improvement. The value for money is fantastic too. Thank you!
ConsThe value for money is so good that I don't have many complaints. I just briefly thought it would be nice if there was a hydrating cream to go with it. There were absolutely no blemishes. The only slight disappointment is that the consistency is a bit thin.
TipMy routine: I apply aloe moisturizer, then spritz on a skin booster. Next, I generously apply the Jeju Volcanic Sea Water Moisturizing Ampoule Essence, followed by a brightening moisturizer or nourishing cream. Remember, regardless of age, if you touch, nurture, cherish, love your skin, and keep a positive mindset, your complexion will brighten, become smoother, and you'll look even more beautiful! That's my secret tip!

If the surrounding humidity drops even slightly, my skin becomes so dry that blemishes appear. This product has a mucus-like consistency, so it doesn't drip like water but stays in place when applied. When it touches the skin and starts to absorb, you can feel your skin 'drinking in the moisture'. It quickly calms the skin with a sudden burst of hydration. While it doesn't absorb instantly like water-based products, those with very dry or dry skin like me will likely be very satisfied. Another plus is that it doesn't run like water, so it seems to last longer than other water-based products. For reference, I tend to apply generously due to my dry skin. I found I used less of this product compared to water-based ones, as it provides sufficient hydration when absorbed into the skin. I was really satisfied with this product!
ConsInitially, the rubber top of the dropper was a bit stiff, so it didn't fully extend and only came up a little, requiring multiple applications. However, this issue improved after using it a couple of times, so it wasn't a major inconvenience. Other than that, I didn't find any shortcomings!

I applied it after cleansing both morning and evening. Let me highlight two major advantages: First, it's deeply nourishing. Unlike typical hydrating serums that just leave your skin feeling moisturized, this one seems to deeply fortify your skin. As a result, when I applied sunscreen afterward, it didn't pill and instead settled comfortably onto my skin. Second, it absorbs quickly. I consider absorption time quite important in my skincare routine, and this product impressed me. It absorbs rapidly, yet the hydration and firmness don't disappear instantly - they last long while feeling lightweight. Therefore, I recommend this to those who want to experience a level of skin-firming they haven't felt before, or to those looking for a single product that provides a good amount of hydration.
ConsThere was one main drawback I noticed: It doesn't play well with other products. When used with just a simple mist and toner, it works wonderfully. However, when combined with other highly moisturizing products, it tends to create an oily film, making the skin feel greasy. Because of this, while it's excellent when used alone, it can be challenging to incorporate into a more complex routine. Therefore, I wouldn't recommend this to those who regularly use multiple functional skincare products or find it difficult to give them up. However, I highly recommend it to those with a simple skincare routine or those looking to simplify their regimen.

I was on the hunt for a hydrating product when I got the chance to try this one out. I found it convenient that the consistency isn't too runny - it has just the right flow when dispensed with the dropper. I use it after my exfoliating toner, and it absorbs well without leaving any residue on the skin. It leaves my skin feeling moisturized, and it plays well with other creams or products I apply afterwards. It's really great for daily use!
ConsI haven't experienced any issues with fragrance or irritation, so I've been using it without any problems.
TipIf you layer it on a couple of times before applying makeup, your foundation goes on much smoother.

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.ProsFirst off, this product really helps makeup adhere well! Usually I have to put a lot of effort into my skincare routine for makeup to barely stick, but I was surprised at how well it worked even when I lazily applied just two layers of toner spray, this product, and cream before makeup. It gives a feeling of deep hydration... I think oily or combination skin types looking for moisture would be really satisfied with this. I also liked that the generous size makes it convenient for liberal use. While I'm not particularly sensitive to stickiness... I found this product to have minimal tackiness. The texture flows smoothly but not excessively.
ConsThere's nothing particularly disappointing, but... I did notice a slight increase in oiliness. However, since I'm used to living with this, it doesn't bother me too much.
TipIt's worth noting that as someone with combination skin, the dry areas on my cheeks weren't fully addressed. Applying an extra layer or adding cream on top helped with this. I think this would be best for those with oily skin types, especially combination dehydrated skin!
