As someone with deep dryness, I love how it gives me that quenched, hydrated feeling.
ConsThere's nothing bad to say. For those seeking a more exfoliating toner, I'd recommend using an exfoliating toner first, then following up with this one for best results.
TipAfter cleansing, gently pat this toner into your skin as you would an essence. It absorbs well, allowing you to enjoy the hydrating benefits of an essence.

Highly recommended for those with deep dryness. Skin type: Dry - The Black Rice Toner, with its U.D.T technology, penetrates deep into the skin, making it great for dry skin types. - It's also beneficial for those with redness issues. I understand that redness often occurs due to inner skin dryness. - I've personally struggled with redness and tried various products. - For those with severe redness, I definitely recommend giving this a try! User experience: Excellent Scent: A forest-like aroma that most people would enjoy - I know some say fragrances in skincare products aren't good, but the ginseng saponins in this provide nourishment and soothing effects to the skin. - The scent shouldn't deter you from purchasing! It seems to fade when applied to the face. (If ginseng is good for the body, imagine how beneficial it must be for the skin!) 1. However, if you're particularly sensitive to fragrances, take your time before deciding to purchase. Scent experience: Good Texture: Slightly viscous This might be why it feels extra hydrating when applied to the skin. Overall review: Great for dry skin types Recommended for those concerned about redness Suitable for those who don't mind fragrances in their skincare
ConsIf you're sensitive to fragrances, you might want to think twice. However, while I am somewhat sensitive to scents, it wasn't bothersome enough to be a deal-breaker for me!
TipUsing a skin booster before applying this seems to make the skin feel even more supple.

It significantly improved my deep dryness. There's no oily residue, and you can feel your skin becoming smoother. In summer, I sometimes use this alone. At first, I thought it was thicker compared to watery toners, but it's excellent when patted in after cleansing with a watery toner. It greatly improved my small bumps. I liked it so much that when I saw it at duty-free, I repurchased it while traveling abroad.
ConsThe scent was mild, which was fine, but it wasn't particularly fragrant or pleasant.
TipSeems to work well with other hydrating products in my skincare routine.

It completely eliminates deep dryness, and on lazy days, I can just apply this and a moisturizer before bed without worrying about dehydration. The texture is incredibly light yet deeply nourishing. I absolutely love it! The quantity is generous too - even with liberal use, it lasts a long time.
ConsThe only downside is that the price might be a bit steep for students. But saving up some pocket money should make it doable.
TipIt works great for combating deep dryness - just apply it on a cotton pad to smooth out your skin texture, or layer it directly on your face.

So I've been using this toner from mid-September until now! I found the toner to be incredibly gentle and effective in improving deep dryness. I have combination dehydrated skin prone to blemishes, and after using this product, I felt less 'Oh, my skin feels a bit dry' during the day. In fact, I've significantly reduced my use of facial mists! While it may vary for everyone, I personally feel my skin texture has improved a lot. The toner isn't too liquid-like and has a slight viscosity, which made it easier for me to use!
ConsThis toner seems to leave a slightly sticky feeling after absorption. It's my first time using a toner with this consistency, so I'm not sure if this is normal, but those with super sensitive skin should take note! Also, if it accidentally gets on your lips or in your mouth, it tastes really unpleasant... Be careful to avoid your lips when applying.
TipWhen used as a face mask, you can really feel the hydration boost!

I always check the ingredients list first when choosing products! I bought this one confidently because it has great ingredients, including hyaluronic acid which is excellent for the skin barrier. The toner contains hyaluronic acid, giving it a clear, runny texture that feels slippery when applied. I tend to apply it generously, so it took some time to absorb completely. However, it's the best for tackling deep dryness! I've been using it consistently for over 3 months now, and I'm completely satisfied with this toner. Just note that it contains fermented ingredients, so those with a compromised skin barrier might experience some irritation. When I first applied it, I temporarily stopped using it due to a burning sensation, but after a month of using a gentle toner to repair my barrier, I tried it again. The burning sensation was gone, and I've been using it well ever since!
ConsSince it contains hyaluronic acid, those who apply makeup in the morning might experience pilling. I recommend applying it at night before bed! Also, those who don't react well to fermented ingredients or have a compromised skin barrier might experience irritation when applied, so please keep that in mind.
TipAs it contains hyaluronic acid, those who apply makeup in the morning might experience pilling, so I recommend applying it at night before bed! Pro tip: Mix a few drops of oil into a 30ml empty bottle with this toner to create an all-purpose base that works wonders for combating deep dryness!

It feels like it's filling my skin with hydration, and it has significantly improved my deep dryness!
ConsIt has a slightly rich texture, which I personally like. However, if you prefer watery toners, I wouldn't recommend this!
TipI found it works great when mixed with oil or used as a toner mask!

It's like it's proudly announcing 'I'm a fermented black rice antioxidant product!' The texture is more like a regular essence with some viscosity (similar to Innisfree's Natural Fermentation Energy Essence) rather than a watery formula. It doesn't absorb instantly - you need to apply it well and pat it in thoroughly. I have dry skin, and I could see the effects after 3 days - the deep dryness disappeared. It was amazing how after showering, my skin didn't feel tight anymore after 3 days of use. After about 2 weeks of use, my skin became firmer and had a slight glow on the surface. Using this made me curious to try and buy the essence too... As I get older year by year, I find myself looking for skincare with better ingredients.
ConsThe finish isn't exactly fresh. It's more of a bouncy, moisturized feeling, haha. I was surprised at first because it wasn't what I expected! But... after getting used to it, I realized this product is like a concentrated essence! Given that it contains fermented extracts and hyaluronic acid, it's unrealistic to expect a completely fresh feel. I have dry skin, so it was good even in summer, but for those with oily skin, it might be better during seasonal changes or in fall and winter.
TipWhen you first use it, do a gentle exfoliation before applying toner! Since it's not a formula that absorbs immediately, I found that lightly massaging it in doesn't irritate the skin and works well.

Even applying just a thin layer in summer was enough to prevent any deep dryness. The absorption is excellent - a small amount covers the entire face. After application, it leaves the skin feeling deeply hydrated and firm. It's surprisingly effective for a toner, not even a mask! The gentle ingredients didn't cause any blemishes. There's a long-lasting cooling effect right after application, making it perfect as a base layer for summer makeup.
ConsAs someone with combination dehydrated skin who doesn't wear makeup often, I found that this product made my skin feel quite rich after a while. I had to deduct one star for this issue.
TipThe absorption is incredible! Just shake the bottle twice and use that amount to cover your entire face, applying in the direction of your skin texture. After application, gently pat it in to experience an otherworldly firmness. It's amazing to get this level of skin-plumping from a toner rather than a mask!
