It's an uncommon texture for a moisturizer, but it seems to help provide a good level of hydration. ☁️Hydration☁️ It's very moisturizing and appears to be one of the better moisturizers at preventing dehydration. ☁️Cooling Effect☁️ The thermal spring water ingredients seem to provide a cooling sensation when applied, which helps with soothing the skin. ☁️Effectiveness☁️ The skin feels slightly smoother after use.
ConsThe texture is a bit thick, so the spreadability is not great. It tends to sit on top of the skin, and absorption is not very good, so a little goes a long way and can feel drying. But if you apply a generous amount, it's fine.

The capacity is small, so it's too wasteful, and there are not many discounts, but I can't not use it. There's nothing as good as this for dryness.. ㅠㅠ I don't use this alone, I apply a moisturizing cream after this, but the moisture and suppleness is definitely noticeable when I don't use this.
ConsThe price-to-capacity ratio is not great. It gets used up way too quickly... And they rarely have sales, haha.
TipNiacinamide essence - spa ampoule - thermal spring water cream - La Roche-Posay B5+ cream seem to be the optimal combination to address dryness. However, the spa ampoule has been discontinued, boo hoo ㅠㅠ Please don't discontinue this one.

ConsA basic moisturizer. It's not a functional product, but it's good for everyday use.

It is equally effective in soothing redness.
ConsThere's nothing except for the expensive stuff in terms of capacity. I'm purchasing during sales.

ConsMy cheeks feel a bit dry, but I think they may get a bit tight during the winter season.

It can be used by anyone regardless of the season. The ingredients are good and it's not irritating. I used it more effectively in the summer.
ConsIt has a slightly occlusive feeling, so it may be divisive.

I never use heavy creams because they always make my skin greasy and cause breakouts. But when I applied this product to my dehydrated skin, I was amazed at how it addressed the dryness, reduced oiliness, and helped rebuild my skin barrier. I highly recommend this, especially during seasonal changes or when your skin is acting up.
ConsI don't have any negatives to share. This is a gem for skin barrier health and I wish more people knew about it.

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 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.Pros🌱 Dry and Sensitive Skin 1. Texture It's a bit unique. It glides on smoothly, almost like silk or sorbet. It's a bit different from regular creams. It feels like applying a primer, with a subtle grainy texture. But there's no stickiness at all - it finishes off smooth and powdery, with a matte look without any shine. 2. Moisturizing Power For my dry skin, even a small amount provides a protective, well-moisturized feel, especially in spring and summer. It has a dewy-yet-matte finish. If your skin is really dry and needs more hydration, it's better to use another product to add moisture first, rather than just layering this one on thickly. 3. Ingredients It's formulated with soothing ingredients. If your sensitive skin tolerates thermal spring water and panthenol well, you could give this a try. My sister said her skin didn't break out after using this cream, and her periodic blemishes calmed down, so it seems to be good for skin barrier strengthening. Unfortunately, it didn't work for my skin, but I'm still glad it helped her. 4. Price At the regular price of 18,000 won, it's not too expensive. You can find it even cheaper when it's on sale.
Cons1. Breakouts This felt a bit pore-clogging on my skin. There was a stuffy, uncomfortable feeling, and by the third use, I started breaking out. I'm not sure if that's just me, but even my lips felt a bit dry and puffy after applying it. They didn't actually swell, but there was an awkward, uncomfortable sensation, so I've rinsed just the lip area before. 2. Lid The product lid is a bit clunky and heavy, so it's not the easiest to open and close. Especially when closing, the lid tends to roll around, so you have to be careful to line it up properly. The matte texture might contribute to that. It might be better if the lid was a smoother, glossy material instead.
Tip💡 Use only a small amount!

They say it has hot spring water, but it seems to be just a placebo effect.
ConsIt didn't work well for my skin. But it was still much better than that panthenol cream.
TipI got it during a negotiation king sale.
