Apply the toner, then pat it onto your face with a cotton pad!

After using this, I noticed more and more blemishes and tiny bumps appearing on my face. I had to stop using it before even finishing half the bottle... so disappointing!

It feels like a hyaluronic acid toner. The moisturizing effect is great for dry skin types.

However, if you recommend this to a friend with oily skin, you might both end up looking like you've visited an oil-producing country. It's that rich in texture.

The scent isn't overwhelming at all. Usually, strong fragrances give me a headache, but this one just gently wafts by, which I really appreciate.

If you have oily skin, it might be a bit challenging to use this during summer!

It's incredibly affordable and has great hydration power. It also feels substantial on the skin.

It's sticky. When I evaluate formulas, what I dislike most is residual stickiness or when it feels rich and slides around, clinging to my hair or bedding. Even with a cream on top, the stickiness remains, unfortunately.

They say it's just the basics, hence the basic name, but looking at the ingredients, it doesn't seem that basic at all! Anyway, it feels like a hydrating essence, but it wasn't exactly the type of formula that won me over.

It's great to use as a base for your morning makeup routine.

Well, there's nothing particularly bad. Though it would be even better if it had a pump dispenser.

The price is reasonable and the ingredients are gentle. I use it for skincare before applying my morning cushion foundation.

The downside is that the packaging feels a bit cheap. Also, it's a shame that it's fragrance-free.

First off, the value for money is top-notch! It absorbs well and feels moisturizing without any stickiness.

Except for winter, mixing it with face oil simplifies skincare to just toner and moisturizer. Since it's not exceptionally hydrating on its own, adding a drop of face oil works well.

Due to its mucus-like texture, it's bound to have trouble coming out if the bottle opening is narrow. As a result, for a toner, the opening is quite wide. While it's good that a lot comes out easily, the opening is so wide that every time I use it, the product flows or smears around the bottle. To prevent contamination, it seems I'll have to transfer it to a separate container for use.

I bought this because it was so cheap on social media, and after checking the ingredients, I found no harmful substances. I thought I could at least use it as a mist. Although it's a toner, it has a thick, mucus-like texture, so it's not great for a spray bottle. However, the ingredients are good, and the price is affordable, making it perfect for everyday use. Plus, I like that it has dual functionality, so I'm considering repurchasing it next time.

There weren't really any downsides. Maybe it's because I haven't been using it for long, but so far I've only had positive experiences!

I have dry skin, so please consider this as my personal opinion. At first, I was worried yet hopeful when I saw it selling for such a low price (the reviews were good though). As soon as I received it, I tried it in my skincare routine. It applies so smoothly, leaving my skin feeling incredibly hydrated. There's a subtle scent - a very, very faint peach fragrance! I used to apply toner and essence separately, but this product combines both, which is super convenient. It has a slightly viscous texture, which I like, and there's even a mild cooling effect that feels great!

It's a bit greasy... As I have oily skin, it wasn't really for me.

It's moisturizing and fragrance-free, giving a healthy feel. I loved how quickly it absorbs!

If you use it together with essence and cream, it provides the perfect amount of hydration for all but the driest skin types. On days when you need extra moisture, try using a basic sheet mask!

When used alone as an essence, it feels like the hydration might be a bit lacking...

The hydration level is just right, and it seems perfect to use after essence and before applying moisturizer!
