This low pH toner balances the skin. Even with just the toner, my face doesn't feel dry but becomes delightfully moist. The scent is subtle without any artificial fragrance, so it's likely to suit everyone's preferences! My husband and I used it together. He has seborrheic dermatitis and is prone to redness, but this seemed to have a calming effect. When I wiped his face and applied it generously on cotton pads to his cheeks, the redness would quickly subside. He loves that there's no skin tightness, and it feels as moisturizing as if he'd applied an essence.
ConsI have combination dehydrated skin, but whether it was due to my skin condition being off, even when I used it solely as an exfoliating toner, I kept getting small blemishes around my nose area. My face became slightly oily, as if it was over-nourished. I'm not sure if it's a purging phase or if it just doesn't suit me... Given the ingredients and benefits, these issues should have improved, so I don't understand why it's only happening to me. I even tried using it alone without any other skincare products, but the problem persisted. However, it worked great for my husband who has oily skin.
TipNot only as an exfoliating toner, but as advertised, when you soak cotton pads generously and gently press them onto your face, it works like a soothing mask, leaving your skin moisturized with a great calming effect.

ConsIt's just a first step, nothing more, nothing less Using it only once doesn't seem enough, especially for oily skin types as it might lead to more oil production later Price: While the volume is generous... hmm... It seems to focus on acne-fighting effects, but that wasn't particularly noticeable
TipApply it with a cotton pad for the 7-skin method, or use your hands to pat it in after your regular toner

Cons👎 Moisturizing power (★★☆☆☆) - Hydration > Oil - May feel dry if used alone. 👎 Breakout potential (★★☆☆☆) - While it had a soothing effect on pustular acne, I noticed some closed comedones on my chin after use, so it needs further observation. 👎 Not recommended for - Dry skin (Oily >>> Combination >> Normal >>>>>> Dry) - Try using with other products to boost hydration. 👎 Packaging (★★★★☆) - Has a hygienic cover for clean use, but despite being glass, it's surprisingly heavy for its size, which is disappointing. 👎 Volume and price (★★★☆☆) - Adequate as an exfoliating toner, but not generous for those who frequently use it as a skin pack. - Discount rates vary across online portals, so research before purchasing.
Tip🍯 Use in combination! - Depending on your skin type, it might feel a bit dry when used alone. - Recommended to use with other products (essence, serum, emulsion, cream, sleeping pack, etc.). 🍯 Use only when soothing is needed! (+skin pack method) - After 8 days of use, it showed effects on both redness and pustular acne. - For both redness and pustular acne, using it as a skin pack with a cotton pad was more effective than as an exfoliating toner or applying with hands. - For pustular acne, it showed temporary soothing effects. After 4 skin pack applications over 8 days, there was a slight reduction in size. - Considering the price-to-volume ratio, I recommend other products for those who frequently use skin packs.

The scent isn't overpowering, so even those sensitive to smells should be able to use it comfortably! *Texture: Slightly thinner than water. This thin consistency makes it great for use as an exfoliating toner or skin pack! <After-use review> *Improvement of small blemishes: After about a week of use, I felt like the small blemishes had noticeably subsided overall *High hydration: I have oily skin with some deep dryness, but even when using this toner alone, I didn't feel any tightness or dryness in my skin *Quick absorption: Despite having a slightly rich texture, it absorbs quickly and leaves a fresh finish *Bottle opening: The size of the bottle opening is just right, making it easy to control the amount *Non-irritating
Cons*It didn't show much effect on cystic acne. But I think this is because I expected too much from just a toner. *It's not entirely oil-free, so those with very oily skin might find it a bit heavy. Overall, it seems to be a gentle toner that both oily and dry skin types can use without issues.
TipFor super sensitive skin, exfoliating toners can be irritating and may damage the skin barrier! If you have sensitive skin, I recommend gently patting the product in with your hands instead of using it as an exfoliating toner. Try using it chilled in the summer for a refreshing feel!

It also keeps my skin from feeling parched.
ConsWhile it prevents dryness, I'm disappointed that it leaves a heavy feeling on my skin after application. The continuous oil production is also a drawback.
TipI use it sparingly as an exfoliating toner, applying a small amount with a cotton pad. I also dab a bit on blemish-prone areas, let it sit for a moment, then rinse it off.
