The texture is slightly sticky, like a runny nose? I liked that it doesn't flow like water. It absorbs extremely well, sinking into the skin with a nice, firm feel. I really enjoyed using it! Just applying this alone seems to help with dryness to some extent. For those with oily skin, this and a light moisturizer might be enough. As I have combination skin that tends to feel dry, I use this with an ampoule and a moisturizing cream. Before, when using other products, I had to apply ampoule, essence, hydrating cream, and moisturizing cream, but with this, I feel hydrated even with fewer layers.
ConsThere wasn't really anything I found disappointing. The amount is generous, and I didn't feel like anything was lacking while using it.

It felt refreshing to apply and seemed to calm the redness in my skin. Overall, I was quite pleased with it.
ConsThe scent isn't particularly pleasant, with a hint of alcohol or perhaps a slightly herbal smell? However, it's not bothersome enough to be a real issue.

The Pyunkang Yul toner impressed me right away because it absorbs well without feeling like it's just sitting on top of my skin. True to its name as an 'essence toner', it's not as light as a water-based toner, but it's also not sticky or heavy. After it absorbs, it leaves a wonderfully fresh finish while keeping my skin hydrated. I used to have oily skin, but lately I've been struggling with deep dryness. I love that I can layer this toner multiple times after my exfoliating toner, just like I would with multiple layers of hydration. It builds up moisture without any pilling, which I really appreciate.
ConsIt has a scent reminiscent of herbs or chaga mushroom. While I personally enjoy this kind of fragrance, it might be an acquired taste for some. To be honest, the fact that I have to stretch to mention the scent as a potential downside shows that I really don't have any complaints about this product.

It absorbed well into my skin without leaving any sticky residue, giving me a fresh and cool feeling after application. Despite having sensitive combination dehydrated skin, it moisturized even my T-zone and areas prone to dead skin cells effectively. I was pleased that it provided gentle hydration without causing any blemishes.
ConsWhile the texture, feel, and hydration level of the essence are good, it would be even better if it contained more soothing ingredients for those with sensitive, acne-prone skin to provide a calming effect.
TipI recommend this product for all skin types, whether oily or dry, especially during these dry seasons. It's great for adding light hydration when applied as part of your morning and evening skincare routine, either in the toner or essence step.

It feels instantly moisturizing upon application. It's non-irritating and fragrance-free, so you don't have to worry about any scent issues.
ConsI haven't discovered any drawbacks yet. I might need to use it a bit longer to find out!
TipWhile one application is usually sufficient, on days when your skin feels dry or sensitive, try layering it multiple times for longer-lasting hydration.

Texture: Although it's a toner, it doesn't have a watery consistency that runs off. It's more like an essence toner. Feel: I applied it using a cotton pad, gently wiping my face. The sensation after application is quite remarkable - it feels like it creates a protective layer on the skin. Without any stickiness or dryness, it gives a firming and hydrating effect, as if it's creating a moisture barrier... I really loved that!!!!! Hydration: As mentioned earlier, it seems to coat the skin, preventing moisture loss and giving a plumping effect. The hydration is quite impressive in that regard! Of course, I didn't stop with just this product - you should follow up with other skincare steps like applying a cream.
ConsScent: It has a slight coconut-like fragrance.. Personally, I'm not a big fan of coconut scents.. However, this is purely subjective, so those sensitive to fragrances might want to keep this in mind (Despite not being fond of the scent, I'm still satisfied with the product.. That should tell you how good the functional aspects are..!)
TipI found it works well when applied with a cotton pad! Also, since it's not a product you'd use liberally and it's not exactly lightweight, I used this essence toner instead of my regular light toner on days when I felt my skin needed extra nourishment!

The scent is subtle, like a whisper from nature. The texture has a nice viscosity without being runny, yet it's not sticky at all. I think it would suit all skin types - dry, normal, and oily. It absorbs quickly, so for those with dry skin like me, I'd recommend layering a rich serum underneath and finishing with a cream for best results.
ConsThere's not much to complain about. I just wish it came in a larger size and was a bit more budget-friendly.
TipIt's a gentle formula without any harmful or allergenic ingredients, so it feels worry-free to use. Instead of wasting this precious toner on cotton pads, I apply it directly to my face and pat it in. Then I layer on a hydrating serum, followed by a bifida serum, and finish with a madecassoside cream. This routine keeps my skin fortified against the winter chill.

It's my first time trying this type...it's a game-changer! It's between a watery toner and a viscous one. It doesn't drip or leave stringy residue - it's perfectly in between. It absorbs well~ At first, it feels dewy and slightly sticky, but it sinks in within 1-2 minutes! I usually prefer pat-on toners to swipe-on ones, but this texture would be great for those who find watery toners inconvenient. It doesn't run down your sleeve...so comfortable~ It feels like 90% hydration + 10% richness. So it might be better suited for dry autumn and winter than summer! I think that's why it's called an 'essence' toner. Just 1-2 layers provide deep hydration, which is fantastic! Even oily skin types won't find it too rich. As someone with dehydrated-oily skin, I love it! To be honest, the scent isn't great. But it's so subtle that you won't notice unless you're really trying to smell it. It has a unique skincare scent.. It seems to focus more on hydration than soothing. Rather than calming active blemishes, it's more for moisturizing skin after popping a pimple. Honestly, although I received this product for free, I think I'll purchase it with my own money next time! If you've found watery toners inconvenient, you won't regret trying this product!
ConsDue to its texture, it's not suitable for use as a toner mask. Also, the volume is smaller compared to other toners (it's 200ml!), so it would run out quickly if used for toner masking.

Luckily, I won the chance to be part of The Hwahae Testers and tried this product. The texture isn't watery, so I generously soaked a cotton pad and gently pressed it onto my face, repeating this two or three times to help it absorb. I then finished with my usual cream. The result? My skin felt much less dry and more hydrated, as if it could finally breathe! I never realized how important toners were, but this one added moisture without any irritation, which I loved. The ingredients are great, and you get a generous amount too!
ConsI haven't found any downsides yet! I was so focused on trying to find something to critique that I almost missed the review deadline!
