Pros
My skin is naturally very dry, so even with skincare, it's super stressful when my makeup looks flaky. But after trying the Millba Lab Jeju Volcanic Sea Water Ampoule, I definitely felt less deep dryness, and my makeup went on so much better! Just from the name 'Jeju Volcanic Sea Water', it sounds like it'd be good for the skin, right? It contains a 6-type ceramide complex and an 8-type hyaluronic acid complex, though honestly, I'm not too familiar with the ingredients... What I do know is that it makes my skin more hydrated, which is great for applying makeup. And the packaging is absolutely gorgeous... The sky-blue bottle looks just like the Jeju sea, it lifts my mood just looking at it!
Cons
If I had to pick one downside, it would be that when using the dropper to dispense the ampoule, it seems to release a bit less product, so I need to press it two or three times to get enough. To be honest, that's really the only drawback I can think of.

Pros
Absorption and application: It applies smoothly and absorbs quickly, making it convenient to use. 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.
Cons
My 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.

Pros
True to its claim of containing deep hydration from Jeju volcanic seawater, I felt my skin being deeply moisturized from the very first use. 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.
Cons
It was such a pleasant and easy-to-use product that I honestly can't think of any downsides.

Pros
# Combats deep dryness The texture is slightly more viscous than water. I usually prefer serums with a bit of consistency as ultra-lightweight ones don't feel like they're doing much. This one is just right. After application, my skin feels silky smooth (without any stickiness). # No irritation Despite my skin being extremely sensitive due to the changing seasons, this product didn't cause any itching or redness. # Fragrance-free I'm quite sensitive to scents, and I've encountered products marketed as fragrance-free that still had a noticeable smell. However, this one is truly unscented. # Hygienic dropper packaging I find dropper-style products more convenient to use than pump bottles. # Clean and attractive design I'll let the photo speak for itself. It has a lovely ocean-inspired look.
Cons
I usually note down any negatives right away, but I didn't find anything particularly disappointing about this product. Apparently, there's one ingredient that's not great for oily skin, but it worked fine for me.

Pros
I've been using this for a week since I received it. My skin is combination dehydrated, so I tend to have deep dryness. However, this product absorbs beautifully, effectively addressing that deep dryness. When I'm feeling lazy, applying this twice is enough to do the trick. It's lightweight, provides great hydration, and I really think it's excellent.
Cons
The only downside I can think of is that the dropper is a bit stiff. It caught me off guard when I first used it, but that's really the only issue.

Pros
I've been using this product every morning and evening for about two weeks. The formula is a slightly thin gel type that absorbs quickly and isn't sticky, so I had no issues applying makeup right after. The moment you apply it, you can feel an instant cooling effect and hydration, providing immediate soothing benefits. I was satisfied with how it maintained moisture for a long time, even on my combination dehydrated skin that tends to be dry deep down. Above all, I appreciated that the gentle ingredients allowed me to use it without irritation, even with my super sensitive skin.
Cons
While the hydration is decent, it might be slightly insufficient for extremely dry skin when used alone in the dead of winter. Also, I found it a bit tricky to control the number of pumps, making it challenging to dispense the right amount. Given its price point compared to the volume, I might have to think twice about repurchasing.
Tip
When your skin is sensitive or your oil and moisture balance is off, try layering this ampoule twice after your toner. The next day, your skin texture feels smoother and more plump! For an enhanced soothing effect, try storing it in the refrigerator before use.

Pros
I've always had dry and sensitive skin, but now that I'm in my 30s, the dryness has become even more severe. When I first used this product, I was impressed by how quickly the transparent, fluid texture absorbed into my skin, leaving it feeling fresh without any stickiness! As someone with extremely dry skin, I've found that even products claiming to be deeply hydrating often provide moisture initially but leave my skin dry again soon after. However, this one offers noticeably more hydration and moisturization than other products I've tried. My skin stayed moisturized all day, which helped my makeup apply smoothly and prevented any oiliness in the afternoon. I was also delighted to find out it's a vegan-certified product, making it even more satisfying.
Cons
There's absolutely nothing to criticize about this product. How could there be any downsides to something this amazing?
Tip
If you look at my other reviews, you'll see that I'm always honest, even when I'm part of The Hwahae Testers. For those with dry skin lacking hydration, I absolutely insist you try this! The hydration is truly exceptional.

Pros
Skin type: Combination dehydrated skin As someone with oily skin that lacks moisture, my face often feels greasy on the outside but tight on the inside. So I'm always careful when choosing hydrating products. I'd like to share my thorough review after using the Milbab Volcanic Sea Water Moisturizing Ampoule Essence for two weeks! Deep hydration effect is definite: After application, you can feel the moisture penetrating deep into your skin. The deep dryness noticeably decreased after use. Refreshing feel: The lightweight formula absorbs without stickiness, making it perfect for morning use too. No skin irritation: Even on sensitive days, I could use it comfortably without any tingling sensation. Helps control oil: As the deep hydration improved, I noticed less greasiness than before.
Cons
May be a bit light for dry skin: While perfect for combination dehydrated or oily skin types, those with dry skin might find the moisturizing effect insufficient. Occasional difficulty controlling amount from dropper: You need to pay a bit of attention when dispensing the product.
Tip
Overall Rating: 5/5 An ampoule that's perfect for combination dehydrated skin! If you want to tackle deep dryness and balance your skin's oil, this product is definitely worth trying.

Pros
I was looking for a hydrating serum to combat deep dryness, and thanks to The Hwahae Testers, I got the chance to try the Miilba Volcanic Sea Water Moisturizing Ampoule! ✅ Skin Type I have combination dehydrated skin with heat sensitivity and deep dryness on my forehead and butterfly zone, while my T-zone is oily. I've been searching for a hydrating serum to calm my deep dryness. ✅ Texture & Scent The serum isn't runny like water, despite its fluid consistency. It's transparent with tiny white bubble-like particles inside. It's fragrance-free. ✅ Application The dropper allows for hygienic application without touching the product directly - great for those concerned about cleanliness. It's not too runny, maintaining some form when applied to the skin. There's a slight slippery feeling during application, and it doesn't absorb instantly. While hydrating serums often have this texture, this one feels a bit more pronounced - like seaweed extract, but not bothersome. ✅ Results After using it morning and night for a week, I'm extremely satisfied! I've struggled with deep dryness and tightness in my butterfly zone and forehead, but I think I've found my holy grail product. Previously, I used two bottles of Well*ju Real Hyaluron 100, which felt light and seemed to evaporate even with multiple layers. This product's slightly slicker texture seems to lock in moisture better. I can definitely feel the reduction in deep dryness, proving its effectiveness. Highly recommend! ✅ Recommended Skin Types 1) Combination Dehydrated Skin Especially for those who found other hydrating ampoules too light and ineffective. 2) Slightly Oily Skin Good for those with mild oiliness during dry seasons or when using heaters. 3) Dry Skin (not extremely dry) While effective for my combination dehydrated skin, those with very dry skin might need to layer it with a nourishing cream or emulsion, or opt for a richer ampoule. ✅ Price Surprisingly affordable! It's 17,950 won with a 5% discount on Lotte Mall, making it accessible even for students.
Cons
There's nothing particularly negative to say! The price is reasonable and the effects are great!
Tip
Due to its slick texture, it doesn't absorb immediately. Avoid over-rubbing as this can transfer the product to your palms instead of your face. Just spread it gently, pat lightly, and let it absorb on its own.
