This review was written by a Hwahae Trial Reviewer who received the product for free and evaluated it with a sense of representing Hwahae.

The skin is also lacking in moisture, making it dull and unresponsive. While the skin is not particularly sensitive to cosmetic chemicals, acne can appear depending on factors like menstrual cycle, lack of sleep, and excessive carbohydrate intake. The author purchased the Bubble Clay Mask out of curiosity. Despite having no prior information about the product's ingredients or reviews, the experience was just 'okay'. After use, the skin felt slightly smoother, but there was no noticeable reduction in blackheads or whiteheads. The bubbling action upon application was interesting and felt like effective pore cleansing. The fragrance, which is a powder and floral scent, is not unpleasant. The packaging includes a small spatula and a dual cap, suggesting attention to hygiene.
ConsThe product contains 9% kaolin, which can effectively absorb excess sebum. However, it uses sodium lauryl sulfate and cocamidopropyl betaine as the main cleansing agents, which are anionic surfactants. These can be irritating and drying, and are often used due to their low cost, despite the trend towards more consumer-friendly ingredients. It also contains phenoxyethanol and parabens as preservatives. While these are approved for use in small amounts in the US and Europe, all synthetic preservatives carry the potential risk of causing allergies and endocrine disruption. The industry is moving towards more natural preservatives like honey, coconut, and grapefruit, but this product seems to be lagging behind that trend. Methylparaben, a high-risk preservative, is also included, which is well-known to consumers as problematic. The fragrance is not a necessary component and could be omitted. Acrylate copolymer is a microplastic that the author is aware of as a concern. Overall, the product prioritizes cleansing power with the multiple surfactants, but the effectiveness of this is questionable. After use, the residue is very difficult to wash off, leaving a slippery, greasy feeling even after thorough cleansing. The author rates this aspect 1 out of 5 stars.
TipThe product does contain some skin barrier-supporting and soothing extracts, as well as carbonated water, but these are present in small amounts, while the harsh surfactants are the primary ingredients. It's recommended not to leave the product on the skin for too long. If the spatula is lost, it's advised to not apply the product by hand, as that can be unhygienic. It's important to follow up with a water-based toner for a second cleansing step. As a student learning about cosmetics, any feedback on areas for improvement would be appreciated. Thank you!

As an international student living abroad, I've been struggling with my constantly changing skin on my own. But after using this product, I feel a sense of satisfaction(?) and joy every time I wash my face :)
ConsSo far, I haven't found any disappointing aspects and have been using it well!

You can laugh while looking at your face. It helps with pore cleansing.^^
ConsWhen my skin was sensitive, it stung my face. The container is inconvenient. The container is stiff and difficult to open, and it feels like I might get hurt opening it. This is a common inconvenience felt with the Elizabeth container, which this product uses. But since they have stubbornly used this container for years, it seems they won't change it, so I just put up with it. I'm not the type to use a product consistently, so I would often leave it in the bathroom and forget about it. Since it's a container type, water would get in, and later it would look like it had gone bad, so even though I bought four containers, I've never used one up completely. I'd recommend the Niaad Gassle Pack instead. It doesn't go bad even if left for a long time, and you just make what you need to use, so it's hygienic, and your skin feels much smoother after using the Gassle Pack.
TipIt's good to apply after bathing when your pores are open. For sensitive skin, either don't use this or apply a serum or ampoule you have at home, and then use this product.

The bubbles that would form on the face after application were so satisfying, and the fizzing sound was also very pleasing to the ears. I liked the feeling of being taken care of, so it was a product I really enjoyed using.
ConsIt doesn't seem like this product actually provides any clear benefits. The results didn't seem to match the experience of using it. I don't really have a reason to use it anymore...

But after using the product consistently, I definitely felt an improvement.
ConsWhen I apply it generously, I feel like I go through it really quickly. Haha, oh no.

It's good for pore cleansing and exfoliating. With products like this, the effects seem to be better the next day after you've slept, rather than right away.
ConsAs soon as you apply it, the foam starts coming up. If you don't apply it evenly, it starts foaming up right away, so it takes a bit of skill.

ConsMy skin becomes red after removing the mask XC (but...charcoal masks are usually good at removing impurities from the skin^^)
Tip*After using this mask, use the Origins Out of Trouble mask and the Leaders Snail mask (to heal+protect the skin) *The mask application is goodenough~c: But..heavy application can also be fun cX (see photo 2)

It seems to be good for refining skin texture.
ConsThere is a downside that it is difficult to wash off. It takes a long time to be able to clean it thoroughly.
TipWhen you find it troublesome to do cleansing separately, you can apply it before showering and wash it off together, which is more convenient.

When I do it one more time, my skin becomes so, how should I say, beautiful!!! It really brightens up and creates a lot of lather, so it's fun and enjoyable♥♥ I think I'll buy this again.
ConsThey say it's a daily use product, but for those with sensitive skin, I wouldn't recommend using it that often..haha After using it for 4 days in a row, some of my acne got a bit worse. Once a week seems to be better♥♥
