TipSince Ahabahara is sensitive to UV rays, sunscreen is essential.

I sometimes use it as a skin pack, and sometimes apply it directly with my hands! I thought the ingredients, including AHA and vitamins from Ahava, would be a bit irritating, but it doesn't seem to sting or cause any discomfort.
ConsI usually just apply a toner in the morning before putting on my base makeup, but this toner is too watery, so I have to apply another product on top of it. :(

I'm also quite sensitive to fragrances, but since this is fragrance-free, it's been easy to use without any issues. The lightweight water-based formula absorbs quickly when I gently pat it on. It's not heavy or sticky at all, and feels refreshing, which I really like. I won the product in an event, and have been using it very effectively.
ConsThere's not really any major downside, but since it's a pure water-based formula, I'm not sure if my skin is fully absorbing it or if some of it is just evaporating into the air.
TipTo make it even more hydrating, I've been dampening a cotton pad with the product and gently pressing it onto my skin, which has worked really well.

It's incredibly smooth and lightweight, so it's easy to use without feeling burdened. In the winter, when I feel like my face needs a little more nourishment, just slathering on a heavy moisturizer would often lead to breakouts. But with this, I can just gently layer the cotton pads and it absorbs into my skin without any hassle, which I find really nice.
ConsI'm using the Doctorly, but.. for those with really sensitive skin or who want more of a hydrating effect, and for those who need a heavy-duty nourishing cream, I wouldn't recommend this. It doesn't really make my face look brighter or anything like that. Especially in my case, since I have somewhat sensitive skin, when I layer it on 3 times, it leads to some clogged pores, so I just use the Doctorly lightly.
TipApply by layering the cotton pads!

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 product feels lightweight and seems suitable as a toner. Since I'm currently pregnant, I'm more sensitive to cosmetics and have been looking for gentle products. After using this, my skin didn't feel irritated and it was easy to apply. When wiping with a cotton pad, it seems to remove some impurities as well. The vitamin C content may have made my skin look a bit brighter - I feel like my complexion has improved a bit.
ConsAs a daily toner, it may provide mild exfoliation, but you shouldn't expect dramatic peeling effects. That would likely be too irritating for the skin.
TipWhen using it in the morning, you'll need to apply a generous amount of sunscreen due to the vitamin C content.

It applies lightly and is fragrance-free, so it should be fine for those sensitive to scents as well.
ConsSince it seems suitable for oily skin types, I think those with dry skin might not find it suitable. There's also a slight stinging sensation when applying.
TipThe amount is generous, so if you soak a cotton pad and apply it like a face mask, your skin will feel refreshed and soothed.

ConsAs for the scent, it's a mild soapy bubble smell... The scent was a bit noticeable at first, but it didn't bother me much after a while It doesn't seem to have a particularly pleasant fragrance 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 the summer It seems like a very light and refreshing product for summer use But for winter, it fell a bit short, so I took off one star
TipIn the summer when there's a lot of oil buildup and heat, you can soak a cotton pad with it and use it to cleanse and cool your skin, which I think would be very effective

The toner I was using before had a high tea tree content and a strong scent, so when I first used this product, it felt a bit flat or watery, if I had to describe it. After using it for about a week, while I didn't feel any immediate cooling sensation or effects, my skin does feel much lighter. I'd like to continue using it consistently, and I don't have any aversion to it.
ConsThere isn't a significant immediate effect, which can be both a drawback and an advantage, as it means the product is gentle.

The box in particular.. It didn't seem as large as I had expected, and looked quite slim. I wiped my face with some stray cotton pads lying around the house, and felt refreshed and lightweight afterwards. I was really happy to have won the Hwahae Trial Reviewer selection, as I had been looking to try a toner, since I don't normally use any skincare products besides a toner. I used to use a vitamin ampoule, but it would sting, whereas this toner contains vitamins but doesn't irritate, and is said to help with wrinkles and brightening, so while it may be a placebo effect, I've really grown to love it. I wipe it on a few times a day, and feel sad every time I see it running low. I'll definitely buy another one when it goes on sale, maybe even stock up. Even though I've been using it sparingly, it disappeared quickly as shown in the photo. ㅠ Because I don't want to waste it, I've been using half a cotton pad, applying the toner to the T-zone and cheeks, and doing a sheet mask too. You have to be gentle when wiping, as it can make your skin red if you press too hard. The refreshing feeling is the best part. My nose and cheeks feel oily, but the rest feels so soft and smooth after wiping.
ConsThere's nothing particularly bad about it. But I wouldn't recommend it to someone with very sensitive skin. I've never had any issues with skincare products irritating my skin, so it's been great for me, but the vitamin content could potentially cause some irritation for more sensitive types.
TipWhenever your skin feels oily, wipe it gently with a cotton pad soaked in the toner. You can also apply it and do a sheet mask on the T-zone. Followed by your usual serum.
