I didn't find the fragrance unpleasant; in fact, it gave me a sense that my skin was becoming healthier, which I liked. The texture isn't runny, and as someone with dry skin, I'm extremely satisfied with it and continue to use it.
ConsIt's a bit disappointing that the container isn't transparent, so it's hard to tell how much product is left.

It's perfect for those with extremely dry skin like me who prefer a more hydrating toner over watery ones! It's gentle and non-irritating, so it seems suitable for everyone. The toner's opening is well-designed, preventing accidental spills, which is great.
ConsThe toner has a slightly yellowish, ochre tint and a subtle herbal scent. If you're not a fan of traditional herbal fragrances, this might not be for you!
TipDue to its serum-like texture, it's great to keep in the fridge. Apply it to your face with a cool cotton pad for a soothing effect on the skin.

It's not completely liquid, but has a slight viscosity when you take it out of the container. It flows slowly at first, but spreads easily on the face like water.
ConsThe strong herbal scent might be polarizing for some. Also, the container isn't made of thin plastic, but rather a sturdy and durable material, which makes it a bit heavy.
TipI think it's better for absorption rather than as an exfoliating toner.

I liked that it feels substantial and more luxurious than plastic containers, giving a sense of stability. Texture: It's not a watery formula, but has a viscous consistency that requires patting the opening onto your palm to dispense. Unlike runny toners that waste product when used without cotton pads, this thicker texture makes it easier to apply. Application and Feel: The slightly viscous formula thins out as you spread it, absorbing quickly. It leaves no residue, doesn't feel oily, and has a fresh finish. It worked well for my combination dehydrated skin without causing any issues. Lately, when I use skincare products that don't suit my skin, I experience itching and blemishes. However, this product didn't cause any irritation or tingling. It's a gentle product with decent hydration.
ConsScent: Perhaps due to ingredients like Angelica Gigas, licorice, and balloon flower extracts, my first impression of the scent was reminiscent of red ginseng candy. The fragrance is stronger than expected, with the herbal ginseng scent lingering even after the product has fully absorbed. While I'm usually not picky about scents, I'm having trouble getting used to this red ginseng candy aroma. Container: It's disappointing that the entire container is opaque white, making it impossible to check how much product is left.

Since it's a toner and essence combo, it doesn't drip everywhere but comes out in controlled drops, preventing waste. No skin tightness either. It's not overly sticky, so you can use it comfortably even in summer. It's convenient too - instead of applying toner, waiting for it to absorb, then applying essence and waiting again, this product lets you do it all in one go. The packaging is simple and elegant, which I appreciate.
ConsThe scent is definitely a drawback. It has a strong herbal smell that takes some getting used to. Other than that, I don't have any complaints.

It would make a great gift for moms or mother-in-laws! The texture is like a light runny nose, so it doesn't drip. It absorbs quickly after application and the hydration lasts for a long time, which I loved. It's great to use even in summer, especially in dry office environments where it keeps your skin moisturized. Instead of using a mist, I found that dropping a bit of Baek Ah Yul and gently spreading it maintains hydration for longer. I'll definitely order more when I run out!
ConsRight after application, there's a slightly sticky feeling. But if you gently pat it for a moment, it absorbs quickly and doesn't feel sticky anymore!

The generous volume allows for liberal use. Its texture, which falls between a toner and serum, is perfect for the '3-skin method'. Since it's not overly runny, you can dispense it onto your palm and apply it to your face without worrying about it dripping. There's minimal stickiness, and it absorbs quickly, making it great for summer use. I'm not sure how it'll perform in winter though.
ConsIt has a strong brownish tint, possibly due to added pigments. The scent is quite potent, reminiscent of applying traditional herbal medicine. While I usually don't mind the fragrance of herbal cosmetics, this one's intensity was surprising.
TipApply and let it absorb three times during the toner step for super hydration.

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.ProsFirst off, I love the clean design, generous size, and skin-friendly ingredients! The best part after trying it is that it's slightly more viscous than a regular toner (not sticky, just not as runny as water!). When you pat it on your face, it's incredibly hydrating! I have slightly dry skin, and when I applied this followed by the Revive You Control Emulsion, it was perfect for summer - moisturizing without being greasy. With the hot, humid weather and face masks making skin feel stuffy and irritated, plus wanting hydration without stickiness, this toner solved both issues! As my first time being selected for The Hwahae Testers, I'm so satisfied with this product that I might repurchase it!
ConsIf I had to nitpick, there's a slight herbal scent when you first apply it. It caught me off guard initially, but the smell disappears as it absorbs. I'm usually sensitive to strong fragrances, but this one was actually fine!

Generally, I avoid sticky or heavy textures (except for overnight products) Application: It has a runny nose-like consistency that doesn't immediately drip when tilted in your hand, and glides on smoothly Absorption: While not instantaneous, it absorbs faster than expected. Many products that absorb too quickly tend to evaporate rapidly, but the Baek A Yul tonic excels in this aspect. It doesn't evaporate quickly but still absorbs well Hydration: Rather than an immediate intense hydration, it applies with a slightly weighty feel, not oily but more like a nourishing cream Overall, it's a decent, reliable product. The hydration lasts well, making it a good tonic for everyday use. However, due to summer, even though it absorbs well, the slightly heavy application makes me want to avoid it. It seems better suited for spring and fall use.
ConsBlemishes: None appeared Scent: Not necessarily a downside, but it has a strong herbal scent reminiscent of passing by a traditional medicine shop. This might be a consideration for those sensitive to fragrances. Personally, I enjoy such scents, but it could be polarizing.

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.ProsFirst off, I love that it's a large size so I can use it generously. Even though it's a big bottle, a little goes a long way! I think it'll last me quite a while. The tonic was thinner than I expected, but surprisingly it didn't drip, which was great! I thought it might not absorb well because it's so light, but it actually absorbs beautifully and applies in a thin layer. It provides good hydration with a lightweight feel, so you can apply it multiple times without any issues. I also felt reassured using it since it doesn't contain any harmful ingredients! Despite having an essence-like texture, it doesn't leave any greasiness, which I absolutely love. I got to try this through a giveaway event, and since it feels so light and gentle on my skin, I'm planning to make it part of my daily routine!
ConsThe container seems a bit too heavy. I think it's glass, and it's so weighty that I'm worried it might break or make a loud noise if I drop it. Also, I'm not sure if it's intentional, but the opening where the tonic comes out seems quite small! It's a bit difficult to dispense. Another slight downside is the herbal scent... But even that becomes milder over time, so it's not too bad!
TipI think this would work really well for those with dry skin types!
