In the morning, applying a moisturizing cream is sufficient for hydration.

Failure to control sebum production can make it difficult to regulate moisture levels. While the product may provide excellent hydration, the amount of oil that comes through can vary depending on the quantity and the individual's skin type - those with oily skin may be less satisfied.

This product is a perfect match for my dry skin. Even when I apply just a tiny amount, the size of my fingernail, the effects are definite. After application, my skin shines like glass but does not look greasy. Compared to the radiant finish, it does not feel heavy and I think the formula has better moisture content, which I find satisfactory. Although it is not unscented, it has a clean fragrance.

I should have bought it earlier. The ingredients are not ideal, but I love it so much that I'm still using it.

This newly released tinted tone-up sun cream is really beautiful when mixed and applied - it makes my skin look so radiant and smooth. The combination is absolutely perfect, I'm completely satisfied.

Despite being a cream, it doesn't provide any sense of hydration or richness to my skin. It doesn't work for me at all, not even when I tested it on the back of my hand as a hand cream substitute.

I bought this popular social media item out of curiosity, as I have dry skin. In the last week of December 2024, I applied my usual skincare routine and then added this cream to my cheeks and chin, which are my driest areas, before going out for an appointment with makeup on.

About 6 hours later, my cheeks and chin started feeling hot and tingly. Even after washing my face that night and applying plenty of my regular skincare products, the areas were red and irritated. I ended up having to visit the doctor... diagnosed with dermatitis and redness.

I used to have combination dehydrated skin on my T-zone and dry but healthy skin on my cheeks and chin. My friends always complimented me on my good skin... Now, after using this cream just once, I've been going to the doctor for 4 months, taking medication. They say I'll even need laser treatment for the redness.

I don't know when my skin will get better. I've switched to emulsions and creams that are supposed to be good for the skin barrier, I'm diligently taking my medication, and I'm not doing anything else to my skin. I've completely stopped exfoliating, minimized my skincare routine, and only wear makeup on special occasions. I used to wear makeup every day...

I wish I could go back to before I used this cream!

There's not really anything bad to say, but if you apply too much, it might make you look like you have an overly oily glow!

My skin was seriously struggling with dead skin cells, but when I apply a thin layer of this and smooth it over my face, not only does it eliminate any flakiness, but it gives me that perfect 'egg-shell smooth' complexion. It's absolutely incredible!

Make sure to use it with a brightening moisturizer. You'll achieve an otherworldly beautiful glowing complexion.

There are absolutely no drawbacks. It's a complete staple! A must-have item!

[Complexion: 23-24 shade, Concerned about makeup settling into under-eye wrinkles, Lip line discoloration, Brown dark circles, Good skin texture but worried about pores, No major blemishes but severe redness on cheekbones]

- Gives a beautiful glow
- Not drying at all
- Absorbs smoothly
- Works amazingly well with brightening moisturizer
- No blemishes appeared
- Unusually for me, I couldn't wash my face for three days after applying this... but still, no blemishes appeared

It spreads well even with a very thin layer. Coupang sells a small tube version at a great price. It would be perfect as a portable option.

Due to my combination dehydrated skin that's prone to occasional blemishes, it can't completely replace a daytime moisturizer. But then again, it wasn't originally intended for that purpose, so that's just my personal wishlist.

As someone in their late 30s with combination dehydrated skin, occasional blemishes, makeup that tends to separate around the nose, and large pores, I'm somewhere between a beauty junkie and a muggle. I rarely go out without makeup, but I don't apply it heavily, so I usually don't prefer primers or products that claim to make makeup last longer. However, I ended up getting this because my favorite idol was modeling for Missha and they were giving out photocards. Initially, I found it a bit heavy when applied before sunscreen, and its purpose seemed unclear. You see, I'm a matte-only, soft autumn type who thinks a dewy look makes me appear less sophisticated and my skin messier. But as I used it, I realized it works well as just a moisturizer! Sometimes I skip my regular cream, apply a thin layer of this, then follow with sunscreen and foundation. The product description says it can be used as a moisturizer, primer, or illuminating base. I tried using it solely as a cream and found that more convenient. Just make sure to apply it very thinly. Alternating between this and my regular cream, I noticed my cheeks tend to feel slightly puffy in the evening when I use this as a moisturizer. I'm not usually compatible with shea butter (though it varies by product, and this one seems okay), so that might be why. It's a bit disappointing. The product itself spreads easily over the entire face with a small amount, and I like the rose scent. I have the jar version, but Coupang sells a smaller tube version at a great price! I've heard people on YouTube say they carry it for touch-ups, which sounds perfect for that purpose.

Like with other products, if you apply too much, it can pill. For the best complexion, it seems you should apply a moderate amount, gently pat it in to help it absorb, and then continue with your makeup routine.

When I apply this cream before my base makeup and then use a cushion, my skin gets this incredibly beautiful, radiant glow. I always use a glow cushion, but since I have dry skin, if I layer on too much skincare, the cushion immediately pills or my skin looks really weird after a while. So, I decided to try using just this after toner, followed by the cushion, and wow! It's amazing - there's hardly any breakdown, and it's absolutely fantastic!

To be honest, achieving that 'glass skin' effect is quite challenging with this product. That's because it has almost no priming function. If you're expecting it to work as a primer, you might be disappointed.

I have dry skin that's obsessed with achieving a radiant glow. 

First off, the small tube size makes it convenient to use. It definitely gives a noticeable luminous effect. Since I apply it after my skincare routine, even with dry skin, spreading it all over the face might cause some pilling. I personally apply a small amount only to areas that need that glow - like the butterfly zone, bridge of the nose, and chin. It really helps my makeup adhere better and creates a subtle, beautiful Inner Glow.

It spreads more thinly than expected, so when scooping it out, use only as much as shown in the product photo (which is less than you might think)!

The jar packaging is such a pain... I'll definitely be switching to the tube version next time.

Usage period: One month
Adherence: Excellent

As someone with dry skin, I'm always concerned before applying cushion foundation. But when I use this as the final step of skincare, right before the cushion, it gives such a beautiful glow and the foundation adheres amazingly well. I can't believe I only discovered this now! The only reason it's not a perfect 5-star rating is because the jar packaging is a bit inconvenient. However, I heard they've released a 20ml tube version? That would be perfect for travel!

I'd suggest using this sparingly on dry areas rather than all over your face. Applying it everywhere might lead to excess oil and make your skin feel heavy.

The product comes with a small spoon-like tool for scooping, but there's no dedicated storage space for it. This might make it easy to misplace or lose over time.

I highly recommend this as a Hwahae favorite! It's especially great for winter or when your skin feels dry. Apply it partially and gently pat it in with a sponge to help your makeup absorb better. It not only helps remove dead skin cells but also aids in smooth application for a flawless finish!

I'd love to use it more generously, but the larger size comes in a jar-type container which is quite inconvenient.

I started using this after getting a recommendation, and I can definitely feel the difference in how well my makeup stays put and doesn't lift when I apply it versus when I don't. It really helps create a smooth base.

While there are both small and large sizes available, the larger one is quite bulky, making it inconvenient to carry around. This often forces me to opt for the smaller size. I wish they would change the packaging of the larger size to a tube format for better portability.

I couldn't live without this product in winter. It's absolutely essential for makeup application during the dry season. Applying a small amount to dry areas before your base makeup definitely helps prevent the foundation from looking patchy and improves its longevity. I found it particularly effective when used before concealer, as it enhanced the staying power.
