However, this product has a thick, angular bottom that prevents it from tipping over, and the lid is tightly sealed, so that kind of issue doesn't occur. This makes storage convenient, which is one of the main advantages. The scent is not overpowering, the formula is quite lightweight, and absorption is relatively fast. The product performance is good, and the premium glass container makes it suitable as a gift.
ConsOily skin types may not be suitable for recommendation, but I would recommend it for dry skin types.
TipHoho bao oil is well known to be a versatile oil that is good for many uses. When using it on the skin, it can be mixed into skincare products or a few drops can be warmed in the palm of the hand and then applied to the face after skincare to add an extra layer of moisture. It can also be used as a hair pack - by mixing it into your usual treatment and leaving it on for 10 minutes or more before rinsing, or by applying it to the ends of the hair after washing, or by using a few drops for a scalp massage. It seems to be very useful in many different ways.

In the winter, my skin tends to be a bit dry, but when I mix it with jojoba oil and apply it, my skin feels plump and supple without any dryness.
ConsConsidering that it's an oil and not a fragrance, the scent is more akin to a neutral, food-grade oil rather than a strong fragrance.
TipUsing a few drops of body lotion, skin care, and lotion mixed together can greatly improve moisture retention.

Especially in the winter, it is a must-have📌 When you apply this one thing at the end of your skincare routine, your skin becomes really moisturized and supple. And since it's definitely Hwahae oil, it doesn't clog pores at all, so I've never had any trouble with breakouts!! I was a little worried at first since it's a brand I've never heard of, but I'll definitely be repurchasing it next time😎
ConsThere are no downsides, but since it's an oil, my skin tends to look a bit dull.🫢 I only apply it in the evenings.

I have a picky and annoying skin type that is both dry and sometimes oily, and even sensitive. If I apply oil incorrectly, it clogs my pores and causes breakouts... But if I apply it lightly, it dries out my skin and causes breakouts... And for no reason, I get breakouts... But!!! After meeting the Hwahae Hohooba Oil, I finally found the balance of oil and moisture! ♡ It's known that Hohooba Oil doesn't clog pores, so it's good for oily skin, but I had tried it before and it didn't work for me, so I was a bit hesitant to use the Hwahae Hohooba Oil. But lately, my skin has been getting dry in the winter, so I just went for it, and wow, it's amazing!!! 💛1. Moisturizing + Clean Finish💛 First of all, it absorbs quickly and provides moisture without leaving a heavy or pore-clogging feeling. Of course, it's an oil, so it's not completely dry, but the sticky feeling goes away after absorption, and my skin is left feeling protected and able to breathe. 💛2. Versatile Usage💛 I apply this oil all over my body ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ The most recommended use is on the scalp!!!!! I know, it sounds weird to put oil on your scalp, but if you just search a bit on YouTube, you'll find a lot of Hohooba Oil scalp massages. I haven't tried the scalp massage yet, but lately, my scalp has been getting a bit flaky due to the dryness of winter, so I've been applying the Hohooba Oil evenly on the ends of my brush, and then gently brushing it through. It's preventing flakiness and balancing the oil and moisture on my scalp - highly recommended!!!
Consit's not there, it's too good

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsThis product is really great. My skin is sensitive and prone to oiliness due to lack of moisture, but thanks to regular exercise, a healthy diet, and good skincare products, my face has become brighter, as many have commented. The product has a jojoba oil base with ceramide ingredients, and it is not sticky or heavy. The packaging allows for easy dosage control, so I have been using it well without any trouble, with abundant moisturization. Oils can easily clog pores and cause blemishes if used incorrectly, but this product only requires a small amount, one drop at a time, to be applied as the final step of my skincare routine, along with a cream. It also works well for dry lips and the ends of my hair. I will definitely repurchase this product once I finish it. I am satisfied with this face oil, as it does not cause any breakouts, and it can be used even by those with oily skin.
ConsThere are no regrettable aspects, but as it is an oil-based product, it is recommended not to use a large amount.
TipBefore applying base makeup, use a drop and gently pat on a luminous and hydrating cushion foundation. After a sauna session, your skin will feel ironed out and radiant.

This is my first time using Hohouba oil, and I love it. I think I've found the perfect product for my dry skin. No matter how diligently I do my skincare and makeup, my skin would get too dry over time. But using this oil creates a moisturizing barrier on my skin, allowing me to maintain a hydrated complexion for a long time. I also really like that the packaging dispenses the oil in small drops, making it easier to control the amount I use. The gradual dispensing is great for adjusting the quantity!
ConsThere aren't really any downsides, but the price and the fact that the foundation tends to break down a bit faster when mixed with dewy makeup is a bit of an issue. Other than that, I'm really happy with it.
Tip1. If you mix a drop of the moisturizer into your skin before bed and apply it, your skin will have a radiant glow the next morning. 2. When doing your makeup, if you mix a drop into a slightly semi-matte foundation rather than a dewy one, it will finish with a powdery yet hydrated look. And if you just lightly powder the T-zone, it's perfect for winter makeup. By the way, I use it mixed into the Wakemake foundation.

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsIt was the product I started using because the oil spray I had been using previously seemed to have changed a bit, either due to my skin type changing or the product itself being slightly different - no matter how many times I sprayed it, my skin would still get dry. This new product has been a lifesaver! The thick oil only needs to be applied once, and even in the freezing -13 degree weather, my skin no longer feels like it's going to tear apart. I was able to use it without any dryness, and the natural sheen of the oil has given my face a beautiful glow that I really like!
ConsPersonally, I didn't really like the scent of the jojoba oil. And while it is an oil, some lighter types are quickly absorbed, but since this one is heavier, it's not the fastest absorbing.
TipDuring makeup application, mixing it with a base or BB cream can help maintain a slight glow and moisture.

Even though I have combination skin, it finishes well without greasiness and seems to be good for blemishes, so I've been using it daily.
ConsI think it's a bit pricey, so it's best to keep an eye out and buy it when it's on sale.
TipMixing it with a hyaluronic acid toner and applying it morning and night daily makes it an excellent basic skincare routine.

It was good that my skin remained moisturized.
ConsI haven't found any unsatisfactory parts yet. I think I'll need to use it consistently to know for sure.
TipAfter cleansing, use immediately while still damp, or apply together in the final cream step.
