I like the absorbed feeling.
ConsBut when I only apply the soothing solution and don't use the finishing cream, I feel a bit dry in the spring, fall, and winter. It's perfect when I also apply the recovery cream.

ConsIf you're sensitive to smells, you may not be able to use it.. It has a strange odor. And since it's a gel type, it can dry out your skin when it dries, so you'll need to moisturize with a cream afterwards.

Those who don't like aloe vera gel should definitely try this.
ConsIt leaves a slight tightness after application and drying, but adding a moisturizer on top resolves this issue.

Propolis was effective in reducing inflammation. It was effective in reducing facial heat, but it didn't manage to calm down the red blemishes.
ConsThe lack of significant effect. Due to the nature of the gel, it feels like it dries up and sticks, which can give a rather drying feeling.
TipIn the summer, applying cosmetics and then using it as a sleeping pack keeps the cooling sensation lasting longer.

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.ProsSkin type: Combination skin with redness (U-dry, T-oily) ✔️The tube-type packaging is convenient to use ✔️Has a calming effect when there is redness or a feeling of heat on the face ✔️The ingredients are gentle and good since it's an Esoul product ✔️The price is reasonable ✔️Very little oiliness. Leaves a clean, polished finish.
Cons✔️Since it has propolis, the scent is... but it's only noticeable when applying and then it's almost undetectable. After using it for a while, I've gotten used to the scent and it seems fine.🤣 ✔️It's a gel formula, and while the application is smooth, it seems to harden quickly. You have to apply it quickly in a swishing motion. ✔️Dosage control is difficult. You have to press down very lightly to get an amount the size of a fingernail.
TipAs a standalone moisturizer, the moisturizing effect is about 2% short, so it's better to use it together with another richer cream.

The propolis scent is quite strong, but it didn't bother me too much. When my skin felt flushed and irritated, I would apply a generous amount and leave it on overnight, and I could feel my skin calming down a lot by the next day. This was a product I had used before, and I'm glad I decided to try it again as it's still working well for me.
ConsWhile it feels very moisturizing upon application, my skin does tend to feel a bit dry after it dries down, so I need to follow up with an additional moisturizer.

Once adapted, it's fine. It smells like Calming Relief Water ㅋㅋ ✅Sensitivity, Irritation -Even if something is a little strong or doesn't suit me, my skin stings or the skin around my eyes turns red right away, but this soothing product doesn't have that ==> I'll give it 1 star here~! -If something doesn't suit me, new acne or trouble comes up the next day, but after using it for a week, no new trouble has appeared ==> Add 3 more stars!! ✅Soothing Effect There is definitely a soothing effect. Just as I was breaking out from a new cosmetic product, I saw the breakouts fading after using this for a week. (I'm the type whose acne scars last a very long time🥲) ✨Conclusion✨ As a sensitive skin type, I'm very satisfied with this product, given the lack of skin irritation, the soothing effect, and the fact that no new acne has appeared. But compared to the product name 'Soothing', the moisture replenishment is somewhat lacking. (Note the shortcoming) Highly recommended for oily skin!!!!
Cons✅Moisture (Texture and Spreadability) -It has a thick jelly-like texture (like applying aloe gel) -For someone like me with small pores and dry skin, it might be difficult to feel the moisture repletion. -For my skin type, it spreads smoothly at first, but the finish becomes sticky. This stickiness feels like the surface dries out, making the skin feel taut. I've had an imbalance in oil and moisture before when using a thick, mucus-like hyaluronic acid product (= poor water absorption), so this texture seems like something I need to keep an eye on. I'll leave a review after finishing the whole bottle ^_^
TipApply this before the cream step, and after applying, divide the cream between the T-zone and cheek area and pat it in, don't spread it. That way, your makeup won't slide off~~ Even the cream you normally use will mysteriously finish with a fluffy, smooth texture. (Highly recommended for oily skin)

It absorbs quickly and has a light, non-sticky finish, making it pleasant to use.
ConsThe first thing I noticed was the strong propolis scent, which was quite pungent when applied to my face, making me reluctant to use it. I had hoped it would be effective for my blemishes, but the anti-inflammatory and soothing effects were not as significant as I had expected. In fact, my skin seemed to react poorly to the propolis, and I developed more small pimples, leading me to discontinue use after just 3 days. As with most gel-type moisturizers, when used alone, it can leave my face feeling a bit tight and dry. I do not plan to repurchase this product.
TipI would strongly recommend testing the propolis on your skin beforehand to ensure it is compatible with your skin type.

It's really hard to find a product that provides enough moisture without feeling too heavy. As a dry skin type, I've never even bothered trying gel products. But I knew Isol was known for making products with great ingredients, and since I had just finished my lotion, I thought their lotion might work well as a replacement. I'm really satisfied with how it's been working for me! Just applying this alone makes my skin feel plump and hydrated, so I don't even need to use a separate moisturizer on top. I'm loving this combination and have been using it religiously lately!! It's been amazing!
ConsI think using this product alone would be too much for those with dry skin. After applying it, it starts to feel really tight and drying on my skin within just a little while, so I immediately have to reach for a moisturizer. So I wouldn't recommend using this as a standalone product for dry skin types - you'll definitely need to pair it with a moisturizer. And those sensitive to fragrance might have some issues with this as well... Most of the products I use are fragrance-free, but I could still detect a bit of the Isol product's scent even after applying my moisturizer on top. But the fragrance did start to fade and become more tolerable over time for me.
TipI found that I liked applying just a light layer of this product and then quickly following up with a moisturizer on top, rather than using a heavier application and a separate lotion. That seemed to work best for my skin - it ended up feeling plump and hydrated. By the way, I also use Physiogel and Dr.G Barrier Cream.

It doesn't completely eliminate acne, but when your sebum-moisture balance is disrupted and small bumps are about to surface, applying it does provide some effect.
ConsSince it contains propolis, the scent is a bit disappointing, and the tinted formula can leave marks when it dries, requiring you to wipe it off even for light outings. Also, I found that using this soothing gel made my skin feel more dry, so I had to be extra diligent with moisturizing in my subsequent skincare routine.
