This seems to fit the bill perfectly. It's so effective at preventing dryness and deep dryness that I don't even need to immediately apply an ampoule or moisturizer after using it.
ConsAs someone with super sensitive skin and atopic dermatitis, I experienced a tingling sensation around my mouth and slight itchiness, possibly due to the rich texture, despite the absence of harmful ingredients. While it doesn't cause dryness, the richness seems to trigger some itching, so I need to be cautious with this product. The runny consistency makes it prone to spilling easily. If not shaken thoroughly before use, the oil doesn't mix well and comes out separately. I wish the bottle opening was a bit smaller.
TipMake sure to shake the bottle well before use.

ConsIt's quite rich, so not recommended for oily skin types. The absorption isn't particularly fast.

As someone with combination skin that tends to get drier in the U-zone during winter, I found this toner instantly moisturizing, eliminating any feeling of tightness. Its formula is perfect for exfoliating while providing excellent hydration, making it my go-to throughout the winter months. I even enjoyed layering it 3-4 times like an essence for added moisture.
ConsThose with oily skin might find it a bit rich. While my forehead and nose felt slightly greasy, I didn't perceive it as overly oily since I apply different base products to my T-zone and U-zone. This approach helped balance the oil and moisture on my face.

However, I was surprised at how quickly it absorbed when I patted it onto my skin! After absorption, you can feel a silky protective layer on your skin's surface, similar to applying a silk foundation. It's not like it disappears immediately, but rather leaves a unique sensation when applied. Usually, I apply this product before bed, and because of this protective layer, I could still feel the hydration when I woke up in the morning. I think it's a perfect product for winter. By the way, even though I have super sensitive skin, it has never caused any blemishes.
ConsPerhaps due to the oil content, I felt it was a bit too rich for morning use. Along the same lines, it might be difficult to use in summer.
TipMake sure to shake well before use! This is crucial.

It's hydrating enough for combination to dry skin types like mine, and it's great for soothing dead skin cells. Blemishes: As someone with super sensitive skin, I'm always cautious when trying new products. After using it for over a week, I'm happy to report no breakouts! Absorbs well: If you gently pat it in, this skin feels refreshingly matte on the surface while maintaining deep hydration underneath.
ConsTo be honest, it's not ideal for use as an exfoliating toner or in a multi-layer routine. It's a bit rich, so applying too much might lead to redness or emphasize dead skin cells. Also, it's not suitable for oily skin types.
TipApply a small amount to your hands and gently pat it onto your skin without pressing too hard.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsHere's my review as one of The Hwahae Testers. I'll try to be as honest as possible: 1. Hydration: After cleansing, when I first applied this toner, I didn't feel any dryness at all, even with just one layer! After two layers, I thought, 'Hmm... Do I even need an emulsion?' I have quite dry skin, though not severely, and I was using a lightweight toner before, so this feels significantly more hydrating! Even after waking up, my skin wasn't dry. 2. Rich feel: Surprisingly, it doesn't feel as oily as I expected. It's not greasy like an oil. It feels like I've applied a toner followed by an emulsion with just the right amount of oil. 3. Blemishes: Looking at the ingredients, there don't seem to be any harmful ones. While I don't have particularly sensitive skin, I didn't experience any blemishes.
ConsThere aren't really any downsides, but if I had to pick something... 1. Price: For this price, it's just okay. I wouldn't buy it with my own money, but it would make a nice gift! 2. Rich feel: While I felt it wasn't as oily as expected, compared to many exfoliating toners these days, it is on the richer side. If you apply more than three layers, it can feel a bit heavy. 3. Usage season: Unless your face is extremely dry, you probably won't need to use this in summer.
TipIf you have really, really dry skin, this could be a great find. It's the first time I've woken up without my face feeling tight (and I have mildly dry skin). Oh, and I keep forgetting to mention - make sure to shake it well before use, as the water and oil layers separate.

Being an oil-based product, I thought it would be slippery, but it's not unpleasant at all. It absorbs better than expected. As I apply it, I feel like it's evening out my skin tone. Thanks to the hydration, my wrinkles have noticeably faded too.
ConsWhile it was perfect for my skin, it might be a bit too rich for younger folks. It could feel greasy. Even I probably won't use it on hot summer days. It's not exactly lightweight in feel.
TipBefore bed, I first apply it like I'm wiping with a cotton pad, then pat it in generously. In the morning before makeup, I apply it as if wiping with a cotton pad, then pat in the remainder. It creates a great base for makeup.

Texture It's an oil-skin, with separate oil and skin layers. When shaken, it feels just like a regular toner! I thought it would be runny like an oil, but it has a light texture. When mixed, it has a milky appearance. 2. Scent It has that typical rice-themed skincare smell. Not bothersome at all. 3. Hydration Being an oil-skin, it felt as moisturizing as an essence. Similar to La*eige Cream Skin! Recommended for dry skin types in winter! 4. Absorption Don't think it'll absorb slowly just because it's an oil. As a toner, it absorbs quickly and provides deep hydration. 5. Sensitivity As someone with super sensitive skin, I had no allergic reaction! Highly recommended!
Cons1. Avoid overuse I don't usually wear makeup or check my face in mirrors when I'm out, so I didn't notice at first. But if you apply too much, it can make your skin look greasy later. Even with my dry skin (no makeup, just using a matte sunstick), seeing that oily sheen was unexpected.
Tip1. Use for layering, not as your first toner I use toner pads or my regular toner to cleanse, then apply this toner. It feels more hydrating, and the oil seems to create a moisturizing barrier. 2. If you dislike sticky essences, use this product as an essence substitute. The oil content makes it a decent alternative to essence.

Usually, when I apply products to my dry face, they either: 1. Leave my skin feeling oily 2. Provide temporary hydration that quickly disappears 3. Maintain lasting hydration At first, I thought this product would fall into category 1 due to the oil content, but surprisingly, it's a solid 3! The product is really impressive. Despite containing oil, it doesn't make my face greasy. Instead, it absorbs well, leaving my skin feeling hydrated and moisturized. Makeup application: In winter, using oil-based products under makeup often leads to everything sliding off when exposed to heaters. However, this product doesn't cause that issue. It creates a great base for makeup without causing it to separate, and it plays well with other serums and creams. It feels like it truly penetrates the skin! I had my friends with different skin types try it, and both those with dry and oily skin loved it! As someone with combination dehydrated skin, I often worry about having to apply products to different areas separately, but this one seems to balance everything perfectly. It's a versatile toner that works well all over. The brand: I was initially worried about trying an unfamiliar brand, fearing a bad reaction. However, it turned out to be a great product. If you're hesitating because you've never heard of the brand before, don't worry - it's worth trying. Texture and application: It has a lemony scent. After application, your skin feels baby-soft and smooth (not that it dramatically improves your skin, but the finish is lovely!). My skin feels more comfortable now that the oil-moisture balance is right. I tried both patting it on with my hands and using a cotton pad, but I preferred patting it on. There wasn't much difference, though. If you use too much, you might feel some residue on your hands.
ConsThe main drawback would be the price, right? It might seem a bit steep for a first-time purchase. However, unlike other toners where you need to saturate a cotton pad, you only need a small amount - about the size of a 100 won coin at most, usually just a 50 won coin size (just a pump or two). The oil content helps it cover your whole face (even if you don't have a small face). The bottle is quite large, and I think it might even be enough as a one-step skincare product for men. So while it might seem expensive if you think of it as just a toner: - You can do your skincare with a small amount - On lazy days, applying just this keeps your skin in good condition Considering these points, it's not really that expensive after all.
TipIf you're someone who finds skincare routines bothersome and you don't have extremely dry skin, this product alone might be enough. I have slightly dry skin, and when I only used this and a serum before applying makeup, I didn't feel any particular dryness. It creates an excellent base for makeup!

In the evening, I used the oil toner + another cream together (occasionally, I only used the toner) -Texture: As you can see in the photo, it has a very thin consistency. -Color and scent: It has a slight scent of soaking rice mixed with an oil fragrance, and it's milky white in color. ♡Positive points♡ 1. The container is sturdy and clean-looking, which is visually appealing 2. At first, I forgot that the emulsion and toner layers were separated, and only saw the toner layer at the bottom. I thought, 'Why is there so little product?' That's how well-separated it was, and I liked that it mixed well without layers when shaken. 3. The texture itself is light, so there's no discomfort when applying it. 4. My face didn't feel tight right after application or the next day. 5. It absorbed well and didn't cause any blemishes.
Cons1. The website states it can be used as an exfoliating toner, but I felt it's better to use a lighter toner for exfoliation and use this oil toner as a hydrating toner. This is because while the oil blend helps balance oil and moisture and has good absorption, the nose area can feel slightly greasy for a long time. 2. Not recommended for: Those with oily skin might want to avoid this. Some areas felt greasier compared to others. 3. While it applies smoothly, due to the product's characteristics, there's a slight oiliness that might make you wonder, 'Is it really absorbing well?'
Tip-I applied this product alone in the morning and with a cream in the evening. After some time has passed since application, you can feel how moisturized your skin has become when you touch it! -Since it's a toner that needs to be mixed, mixing it well would likely give the best results, right?
