I found it while searching for an exfoliator that contains both AHA and BHA. It's a product that doesn't feel slippery and evaporates quickly. So, for a thorough exfoliation, I soak a cotton pad and leave it on for 10-20 minutes as a skin pack. While I don't have pustular acne, I often struggle with small bumps. Using this product for exfoliation seems to keep them under control, which is why I keep using it. After using it as a skin pack, there's a noticeable change in skin texture from rough to smooth.
ConsI'm not sure if it's the AHA or BHA, but there's a distinct chemical smell, similar to alcohol or acetone, that you often get with chemical exfoliants. It's not particularly pleasant. However, I prefer this to having it mixed with strong fragrances that could result in an even stranger scent. Also, when used as a skin pack, it gets used up too quickly. I wish there was a more affordable, larger size available.
TipHere's my personal method of use (which might be too harsh for sensitive skin): I soak a cotton pad generously and leave it on for about 15 minutes before applying makeup. This helps my makeup stay put throughout the day.

While it may not have dramatic effects, it's a toner I find myself reaching for often without hesitation.
ConsThe scent is somewhat reminiscent of chemicals. I've gotten used to it now, but at first, it was a bit off-putting. I occasionally apply it to my husband, and he says it stings around his eyes, even though it doesn't actually get into them.

ConsThe scent of the product is slightly disappointing. While I'm not particularly sensitive to smells and it wasn't too bothersome, there's a slight alcohol-like fragrance.

For years, I've been using this only on my nose and chin as a spot treatment. My cheeks are ultra-sensitive, so I avoid those areas. I haven't experienced any blemishes, and while it's not intensely hydrating, I'm unsure if it's improved my sebum production or blackheads. I continue using it simply because it doesn't cause any irritation.
ConsThe alcohol-like scent gives the impression it might be irritating. Since I only apply it to areas excluding my cheeks, I haven't had any blemishes. It's just an okay product overall!
TipFor those with dry or super sensitive skin, I recommend using this as a spot treatment only on areas like the nose, chin, or forehead, rather than all over the face.

Truth be told, I was extremely reluctant to introduce this product, primarily because it struck me as neither particularly bad nor good - just an average toner. Ironically, the second reason was that there weren't any comparable products from other brands on the market to replace this ambiguous corner. While this might sound like it's a decent product, as I mentioned earlier, it's just so... mediocre. It was quite difficult to give it a positive review based solely on its one advantage as a toner for pore and dead skin cell management. Nevertheless, I'll rack my brains to list the aspects that were somewhat decent. Firstly, true to its purpose as an exfoliating toner, it does a pretty good job at removing dead skin cells. Of course, it can't compete with dedicated exfoliating creams, but honestly, exfoliating once a week can be quite a hassle. When you're too lazy to use exfoliating pads, this toner is unbeatable. With consistent use, you might notice a slight difference in skin texture - the rough surface becomes a bit smoother. However, this effect isn't achievable by using this product alone; you need to consistently use it in combination with other products (peeling gels, pads, creams, dermatological treatments, etc.) to see any noticeable results. It absorbs well and feels light on the skin. Regardless of skin type, it seems to absorb quickly without causing much tightness, which is great. It's a time-saver for busy modern folks, even if just by a second.
ConsWhile you might get used to it eventually, I have to be honest - it stung quite badly when I first used it. My skin hurt. Perhaps due to the AHA BHA content, the artificial scent was also unpleasantly strong and sharp. (If it gets in your eyes, you'll feel a burning sensation as if your eyeballs are melting. I truly felt like lava was flowing from my eyes.) Another issue is its lack of moisturizing properties. Honestly, this wasn't a big problem in summer, but I don't think it would be suitable for winter when extra hydration is crucial.

Using it as an exfoliating toner or toner pack has noticeably reduced oiliness. My skin feels cleaner compared to using a regular toner. It's quite good! They also offer a 50ml size, which is perfect for travel.
ConsThe slight alcohol-like scent is a bit disappointing. Those with super sensitive skin should use this product with caution.

It's easy to spray and doesn't feel sticky at all.
ConsThe alcohol-like scent is a bit disappointing. I've been using it for nearly two months, but haven't noticed much change.
TipI apply it to my back and chest after showering and drying off.

Despite being an AHA/BHA product, it didn't cause any tingling or redness 2. When used as an exfoliating toner, it leaves a clean feeling (not rich) 3. The ingredients...? (I don't pay much attention, but they seemed good)
Cons1. There's a scent that's somewhat like alcohol (not particularly pleasant, but tolerable) 2. The opening is frustratingly small, making it hard to dispense. The bottle isn't squeezable either (I found this a bit odd) 3. It's just really... average. I'll probably use it occasionally as an exfoliating toner for skin maintenance
