In addition to improving skin texture, it seems to provide instant brightening, probably due to the Vitamin C. I think with consistent use, it might even lighten the complexion. It's really good!
ConsNo downsides, but I wish they'd have a larger size event!
TipIt's great to mix in a bit of hyaluronic acid when applying. It helps with texture, evens skin tone, and adds hydration. The consistency changes from a very runny liquid toner to one with a slight viscosity, making it easier to use even if it's not specifically an exfoliating toner.

The Clarifying toner works better, especially for combination to oily skin types! However, this toner has a higher AHA content, which could be more effective for improving skin texture, exfoliating dead skin cells, and evening out the complexion. Therefore, I'd recommend it for those with dry skin!
ConsAs it's a vitamin-enriched toner, there's a bit of stickiness after application. When first applying it to areas with blemishes, there's a very slight tingling sensation, but otherwise no irritation. My likelihood of repurchasing is so-so...

I'm also using COSRX pads, and I alternate between them depending on my skin condition for exfoliation care. It helps smooth my skin texture before makeup and absorbs well, leaving a refreshing feel.
ConsThe formula is light and watery, which might be more suitable for summer use rather than during the cold winter months.
TipIt's also great to use as a light skin pack.

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.ProsThe water-based formula is incredibly lightweight and doesn't put any stress on the skin. I've been using it generously since I got it, and there's still plenty left due to its large quantity. Since it doesn't cause irritation, I can use it two or three times to refine my skin texture without any issues. It was extremely gentle on my skin. I think it's the lightest formula I've ever used, and surprisingly, it feels quite hydrating once it's absorbed into the skin.
ConsIf I had to nitpick about the scent, it's a faint soapy bubble smell? While it didn't bother me much after using it for a while, there was a slight odor at first. I wouldn't say the fragrance is particularly pleasant. Since I have dry skin, it wasn't perfect for my winter skincare routine. I think I would have seen better results if I had used it in summer. It seems really light and refreshing, ideal for summer use. I deducted one star because it fell short for winter use.
TipI think it would be really effective to use this product in summer when your skin gets oily and heated. You could soak a cotton pad with it to cleanse and cool your skin, or even use it as a chilled sheet mask for maximum benefit.

I received the product on Wednesday, January 8th, and have been using it for about 9 days! My skin type is mildly combination dehydrated skin! ✔️Packaging When I first received and opened the product, the packaging was clean and gave off a luxurious feel, which put me in a good mood even before using it! ✔️Texture In the evening after cleansing, I applied the toner to a thin cotton pad and wiped my face. It felt gentle on the skin~ ✔️Effectiveness It's easy for skin to become dry in winter, but perhaps because I used this toner daily, my skin became softer and my makeup applied better! ✔️Hydration It's difficult to expect hydration from the product alone, but it seems to help with the absorption of subsequent products! After wiping with the toner and applying a hydrating gel or cream, it felt like they absorbed better :D
ConsIf I had to pick one downside, it would be the value for money. Other than that, everything was great!
TipApply the toner to a cotton pad and wipe your face, then generously apply a hydrating gel or cream before bed, and you'll wake up with honey-like skin!

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.ProsI've been using this toner right after cleansing, before my skin fully dries! I soak an embossed cotton pad with the toner and use it to refine my skin texture. Since it contains BHA, it helps remove dead skin cells and excess sebum, which has really improved my skin texture! I usually have trouble with makeup not adhering well, but since using this toner, my skin looks beautifully even when I apply makeup. Even though I have thin, super sensitive skin, I've been able to use it daily without any irritation! The lightweight, water-like consistency makes it perfect for the 7-skin method. I also love how it leaves my skin feeling soft after patting in the remaining product. As for the scent, it's practically undetectable - you can consider it fragrance-free! Those who are sensitive to fragrances should be able to use this without any issues. Considering its price point, this toner really doesn't lack anything. I'm definitely planning to repurchase!
ConsThere's nothing I dislike about it. So far, I haven't experienced any blemishes.

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.ProsThis is a review from The Hwahae Testers! The biggest advantage for me, as someone with very oily skin, was feeling like my skin texture became noticeably smoother while using this toner. I think it would be great for those with dry skin to use instead of morning cleansing. Compared to the Tony Moly Mocchi Toner I used before, I'd say this one provides about half the hydration. It seems perfect for gently removing dead skin cells. As someone with extremely oily skin who always uses a cleanser even in the morning, I found that using just this AHA BHA toner to refine my skin texture before makeup gave me a sense that my makeup applied better. It's always a mood booster when your morning makeup routine goes well!
ConsIt's difficult to rely solely on the AHA BHA toner for complete skincare. Even with my very oily skin, I felt an inexplicable deep dryness after using this toner, so I ended up applying the Tony Moly Mocchi Toner afterwards. While it's great that it doesn't contain any harmful ingredients, I did experience a large blemish on my nose while using this toner, which was a bit troublesome to calm down. I guess there might have been an ingredient that didn't agree with my skin. Apart from this issue, everything else was fine!
TipI think this could work well as a morning cleansing alternative for those who don't have oily skin! I used thin cotton pads with this toner throughout my usage, but I feel that might have caused some irritation. I'd recommend using thicker cotton pads saturated with more toner instead!

This product gently wiped away the dead skin cells without any irritation. • Almost fragrance-free ★★★★★ I loved that it's practically scentless - you'd have to bring it very close to your nose to detect any fragrance. • Skin texture improvement ★★★★★ I used it morning and evening, gently wiping with a cotton pad. My skin texture became smoother, and the uneven areas around my nose (butterfly zone) became less noticeable.
Cons• Whitening and anti-wrinkle effects ★ While it's difficult to expect significant whitening and anti-wrinkle benefits from a toner, this product didn't deliver on its claims of skin brightening and tone improvement. • Sebum control ★ The effect on sebum control was also minimal.
TipSince it contains whitening ingredients, the product instructions advise using sunscreen when applying during the day. If you use it in the daytime, be extra diligent with your sun protection.

I have combination skin, and in winter, my cheeks get very dry, so I prefer products with good hydration. When I first used this product, it felt very light and gentle, which was nice, but it seemed a bit challenging to provide enough moisture for my dry cheek areas. I loved how it worked well as a prep step for makeup. After soaking a cotton pad with the toner and gently smoothing it over my skin, it refined my skin texture without any irritation, creating a perfect canvas for makeup application. My skin usually gets rough in winter, requiring regular exfoliation, but this toner helped smooth my skin texture without any harsh effects! As someone with allergy-prone skin, I often react to random cosmetics, but this one caused no issues at all - which was fantastic! Overall, it's great as an exfoliating toner due to its lightweight and gentle formula! My skin is sensitive and combination type, and lately, my cheeks have been quite dry, so I can't use just any product. However, this toner was so gentle that it didn't irritate my skin at all! When I used it with a cotton pad, I could feel it removing dead skin cells, and when I applied makeup after using this toner to refine my skin texture, my makeup went on smoothly. It's perfect as a wipe-off toner! The texture is clear and light like water, rather than being heavy!
ConsIf you have dry skin, you might find it a bit drying. I had to layer it about three times on my cheek area to feel properly hydrated. It would be better for those with dry skin if it provided more hydration! That was the only slight disappointment.
TipIn the morning, I soak a cotton pad with the toner and wipe my face, which refines my skin texture and helps the next skincare products absorb better. So, my morning routine now is using this toner, followed by the COSRX Propolis Ampoule, then Avène emulsion before applying makeup. My makeup has been going on so well lately!

Given the reputation of the COSRX brand, I was full of anticipation when I recently tried it out. First off, a big plus is the generous amount you get. It applies lightly, and when used as an exfoliating toner, it really seems to refine the skin texture. It also absorbs well into the skin quickly. As someone sensitive to fragrances, I especially appreciated that it's unscented!
ConsWhen applied to sensitive areas like wounds, it stings a bit - perhaps due to the vitamin C content, though I'm not sure. While it's supposed to exfoliate with its AHA/BHA ingredients, I didn't really feel like it was particularly effective at removing dead skin cells. This might be because I haven't used it for very long, but it was a bit disappointing.
