ConsThe slightly viscous water-based formula had more of a toner-like application than an essence. It absorbed quickly, but it felt like I hadn't applied anything at all. As a wrinkle-targeting product, I was unsure if it would be effective.

ConsSince it's like a watery toner, I think it would be better to use it as a toner rather than an essence.

ConsI don't think there's really anything disappointing about it.

I am a review based on my own experience of using the entire product. Laneige may be more well-known for its Trouble Line, but this product also seems to have a good ingredient combination, so I purchased and used both. Unlike the Trouble Essence, the Recovery is a liquid type, not a gel, and the viscosity is about that of a light~watery essence. There wasn't a dramatic regenerative effect, but I was able to use it without any issues. In fact, I used it more often as a toner, even though it's a bit pricey. You can lightly wipe it off or apply it on a cotton pad as a pack, and it will recharge your skin with moisture and soothe it before makeup.
ConsIt's probably the accessibility and price, right?? When Laneige first launched the Laneige, it seems like Director Pai also helped promote it, but these days, it's mostly seen online ㅜ However, I think it's generally a brand with good ingredients.

The Recovering Time Essence felt gentle when I used it, and it quickly made my skin feel moisturized. It also seemed to suit my skin well, which I really liked. Additionally, the pump packaging means I don't have to worry about dust (cleanliness issues), and I can use just the right amount. After using it consistently, my skin started to look more radiant and transparent, become softer, and feel more elastic, which I found very positive!
ConsWhile the difference before and after application may not be significant, since it helps with whitening and improving skin wrinkles, consistent use is likely needed to see good results.

ConsAs expected, the fermented ingredients did not agree with me. I've been using only acne products, so my wrinkle and elasticity management has been lacking, and I've been trying other products occasionally, but it seems to have had the opposite effect. Acne started appearing one by one and then spread terribly all over. And it doesn't seem to have much effect on wrinkles, so I don't think I'll be purchasing it.
TipI would recommend that those who don't react well to fermented ingredients try getting samples first and testing them out.

I'm sorry for the delay. The best thing was that it suits sensitive skin very well! It also has decent moisturization and is composed of good ingredients.
ConsThe lack of significant effects... The ingredients are good and suitable for sensitive skin, but either the composition ratio is not quite right or it just doesn't match my skin type. I didn't see dramatic effects compared to the ingredients.
TipAfter using the toner before bedtime, apply the essence right away and you're good to go. It seems the abundant nutrients in it are sufficient on their own.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsMy skin is extremely sensitive and prone to seborrheic and contact dermatitis. So if I use a product that doesn't suit my skin, it immediately reacts. When trying a new product, I carefully check the ingredients and read all the reviews on Hwahae Trial Reviewer before purchasing. I trusted this product because it is formulated with natural ingredients and all the ingredients are rated green by EWG. Many essence products are thick and absorb slowly, but this one has a lightweight, watery texture that absorbs quickly, so I can use it morning and night without any issues. It gets absorbed immediately upon application. I tried to take a photo but it was hard to capture since the absorption is so fast. At first I thought the amount was small for the price, but turns out a couple of drops on each cheek is enough, so I think this is a really great product! I think even those with extremely sensitive skin like mine can use this product without any worries.
Cons▶️ Improve Product Packaging I think using packaging that matches the price range is important. When I saw it online, it looked affordable, but in person it looks a bit cheap. Since this is around a $40 product, it would be better if the packaging was changed to a glass bottle. ▶️ Offer Offline Sales It seems to only be available online, but I think it would be great if it was also sold at stores like Lohbs and Olive Young.
TipJust use a couple of drops on each cheek, don't apply too much!
