And the application was also good! However, since my face is particularly sensitive during the seasonal changes, I get hives, so I think I'll have to use it in the winter!! Since it's a night type, I used it on areas that tend to be drier, like under the eyes and the laugh lines.
ConsThere was a bit of a skin trouble. Likely, it's because my skin becomes more sensitive during seasonal changes....

The feel is definitely more moisturizing than oily, and it leaves a dewy finish. Just a light application on dry areas like the eye contour and laugh lines is all it takes. It's all great, but I found it gets used up faster than expected! The wonderful feel of it has me reapplying it multiple times a day, which seems to make it run out quicker.
ConsThere were no troubles, the usage experience was good, and there were no disappointments whatsoever!
TipAs needed, it can also be applied to the neck area.

It is often used for touch-ups, or around the mouth area after brushing teeth. As it has no particular scent, it is suitable for those sensitive to fragrances.
ConsConsidering that it is somewhat oily, I would recommend lighter products for those with combination skin.
TipHwahae is not a filling formulation, so it is best to use it as the final step in your skincare routine.

I also have a keyring that I hang on my bag, and I can just rub it over the area that needs correction and lightly dab it to absorb it, then apply corrective makeup right on top. It's great for using at night instead of a mist when my skin feels dry, as it has a cooling sensation that feels nice.
ConsThe amount feels small compared to the price, and it gets used up much faster than expected.

If the ingredients are not good, I immediately get red rashes. My skin is so sensitive that it causes itching. My skin is also quite dry inside, so mists and moisture sticks are essential for me! I was a bit concerned about one of the ingredients, but the Kiehl's Moisture Stick Balm was gentle. When I do touch-ups, I lightly wipe with a tissue and then apply the stick balm before putting on the cushion foundation. This makes my skin look just as dewy as when I first applied my makeup. I've tried other moisture stick balms, but none of them were able to address my internal dryness. However, this stick balm glides on nicely without feeling too dry. I also like to apply it lightly to areas that tend to get dry, like around my mouth and eyes, before doing my base makeup.
ConsI felt a slight stinging sensation as well! This is because my skin is very sensitive, to the point where I only use baby shampoo. Other skin types may be fine, though!
TipWhen applying makeup, areas that often become dry can benefit from a light application.

Even though my skin is already on the dry side, long flights leave my skin feeling cracked and parched. Bringing creams every time is a bit of a hassle, so I've really been struggling with this issue. But after using this product, I've found the solution! It's shaped like a glue stick, and when you apply it, your skin feels so moisturized and soothed... I also bought the caterpillar(?) shaped keyring case that glows in the dark, and it's been so helpful. When I'm dozing off in the dark cabin, I don't have to fumble around in my bag to find it - I can just grab it right away! It's super cute to have attached to my bag too.
ConsThat said, the product can only be used when it's a bare-faced~sunscreen, which is an unavoidable limitation, and this is the most disappointing part. The material is quite fragile, so if you dispense and apply too much, especially around the edges, it's prone to crumbling and breaking easily...The reason it's thicker than typical stick-type products is likely to prevent it from breaking, as it's a bit awkward to store. You really have to gently dispense just the right amount and apply it lightly for it to adhere well to the skin!!

The cooling effect is also good.
ConsYou can only use it when applying sunscreen. It's a bit difficult to apply after makeup.

When applied, it fills the skin with moisture while also providing a coating, so your face doesn't get dry even under the heater. It also glides on smoothly all the way to the lips.
ConsThe amount is really small and it wears out quickly. I apply it once or twice a day, and it seems like it won't last even a month. It tends to pick up a bit of dust.
TipThe keyring design makes it convenient to carry around. While it may be too small to use as a main cream, I recommend it as a portable option.

The size is not too large, so it doesn't take up much space and is suitable for portability. The fragrance is close to unscented, so it's not overbearing. It applies smoothly and gets absorbed quickly with a light patting motion. While it has a good amount of oil, it also has a touch of moisture, so it's suitable for use in dry or seasonal transitional weather when skin can feel dehydrated.
ConsI really like Kiehl's basic skincare products, so I wish they would come out with similar stick-type products for vitamins or collagen as well.
