Pros
The formula was clean and lightweight, which was good for skin care.
Cons
The moisturizing power is weak, so those with dry skin may need to layer it a few times, and the alcohol scent is strong.

Pros
🌟Non-sticky, suitable for oily skin👍🏻 It absorbs into the skin without any stickiness. When using a sticky toner, makeup often slides off, but this product doesn't have that problem. It's a product that oily skin can use comfortably. 🌟Good ingredients👍🏻 It contains skin-soothing ingredients like tea tree, green tea, and centella, which help soften the skin texture. It worked well for my sensitive skin without any issues, and didn't cause any more breakouts. The strong tea tree scent may have helped with the acne as well.
Cons
🌟No moisturizing effect👎🏻 These days, there are many toners that emphasize moisturizing, but this toner doesn't provide much hydration. When wiping the skin with a cotton pad, it absorbs quickly and doesn't leave a moisturizing sensation. However, toners are considered the final step of cleansing, so their main function is to remove any remaining makeup residue and refine the skin texture. This product excels at fulfilling those core functions.

Pros
This is a Hwahae Trial Reviewer review! I didn't realize the writing period had passed and I'm only writing it now. I'm sorry to Hwahae!! ㅠㅠ It's great to use as a cleansing toner with diluted water! The scent is kind of herbal, but not really~ From the reviews, it seems to be quite polarizing, but I'm a fan❤️ I've had some skin irritation for the past few days ㅠㅠ I tried using the Tetraphos toner as a soothing pack, and it seems to have helped calm my skin a bit!
Cons
It is effective, but the effects aren't dramatic. It might be difficult to expect that level of change by using it. And when I used it as a cleansing toner, I felt it was drying ㅠㅠ So I had to apply a serum to make it better, and I had to pat the toner on my face once more to reduce the drying feeling!! Even when using it as a soothing pack, I felt it was a bit drying ㅠㅠ
Tip
Soak a cotton pad with the toner and gently press it onto the areas of your skin that need soothing ❤️ Leave it on for 10-15 minutes, then remove it. After that, you can continue with your regular skincare routine!

Pros
⭐️Hwahae Trial Reviewer Review⭐️ First of all, the texture is watery, so it was good to use as a cleansing toner! I mainly used it in the morning when I needed to apply it lightly. It felt refreshing, lowered my skin temperature, and helped reduce puffiness by cooling my skin. Even though I have sensitive skin and can't use just any cosmetics, it didn't cause any redness or irritation! It was a good daily toner to use without any issues.
Cons
The downside is that since I have dry skin, I felt it was a bit drying when I used it in the evening. It doesn't seem to be a very moisturizing product.

Pros
As I have a skin that occasionally experiences breakouts, I always keep products related to skin troubles on hand. This product seems to be for summer use, as I felt it was slightly drying for my combination skin. While the moisture level may be a bit lacking for using it in the winter, I think it would be a suitable product to use when it's hot and sweaty in the summer, and you're struggling with applying makeup due to breakouts. In those situations, I think this would be a good product to use. The texture is like flowing water, fragrance-free, and I definitely felt a soothing effect without any irritation.
Cons
As mentioned earlier, it's a bit drying to use in the winter. So I applied this and then layered on an essence and a rich moisturizer. But even then, when I went to apply my makeup in the morning, my skin felt dried out. I wonder if it's just difficult to have both skin-soothing properties and good moisture in a product targeted for troubled skin.
Tip
In the winter, I used this product as a toner (although the amount is a bit small) and then followed up with a hyaluronic acid toner and a lotion before doing my makeup, and that worked out well. I felt like it helped manage my skin troubles.

Pros
I've been using the toner pack frequently recently, and since it's a water-based toner, it's a great formulation for doing toner packs...? And it absorbs really quickly!!!! As someone who is not sensitive to fragrances, I found the scent to be quite nice.
Cons
To be honest, since I have dry skin and experience inner dryness, the moisturizing effect was a bit lacking for me ㅠㅠ Even when I used the toner up to 3 layers, it felt more like it was evaporating rather than being absorbed...? When doing the toner pack, the moisturizing effect didn't last very long, and I didn't feel very hydrated ㅠㅠ
Tip
Personally, I use it more as a cooling and soothing product rather than a dedicated moisturizer. I keep it in the fridge and use it as a soaked cotton pad when my face is puffy or the temperature is high.

Pros
First of all, the water-based formula with a slight viscosity allows it to apply lightly and refreshingly, yet it finishes off moisturized! It absorbs quickly, and as a person with combination and sensitive acne-prone skin, it was a gentle and suitable toner :) The formula is perfect for using as a cleansing toner or a second toner, and applying it a couple of times would be great.
Cons
The fact that it's quite unremarkable seems to be both an advantage and a disadvantage..! In fact, there's really no noticeable effect, but it's also non-irritating... And since it's a water-based formula, it gets absorbed quickly but also dries out just as fast! As it's lightweight, those with dry skin might find it lacking in moisture.

Pros
My skin type is dry and oily. My pores are quite large and I have quite a bit of dead skin. To list a few advantages: First, it's very lightweight. It's quickly absorbed, even though it's oily, so there's no heavy or greasy feeling that can cause breakouts. It's also effective in soothing blemishes. Right around when I received the product, I had a lot of breakouts on my chin due to my period, but they calmed down after using this product for 2 days. I thought it would be just an average product, but it turned out to be better than expected. The product claims to have effects like soothing, exfoliating, and blackhead removal, but I'm not sure about the exfoliating and blackhead removal effects - I'll have to use it more consistently to see. Lastly, the scent is not overpowering. It's a familiar scent, not unpleasant, but rather fresh and invigorating. Oh, and the cost-effectiveness is good too!
Cons
It feels a bit drying to use in the winter. As I mentioned before, it has a drying effect, so when I use a cleansing oil, it feels a bit tight. It seems more suitable for summer than winter, and it may work better for oily skin types than dry skin types.

Pros
First, my skin type is oily, sensitive, and acne-prone. My skin condition can be fine one moment, but then suddenly develop cystic acne or breakouts, so it's quite unpredictable. This is a review of the Hwahae Trial Reviewer product. After receiving the product, I have been using the toner every morning and evening, applying it as a cleansing toner and skin. However, I haven't been using it for a very long time, only about 1/5 to 1/4 of the product, so I may update this review later. 🍭It feels refreshing. When used as a cleansing toner, it leaves my skin feeling clean and balanced. No matter how many layers I apply, it doesn't feel oily. 🍭It doesn't cause breakouts. For a sensitive skin type like mine, this is perhaps the most important factor. Even a slightly unsuitable product can immediately trigger cystic acne, so I'm particularly grateful that this hasn't caused any significant breakouts. 🍭Calming effect on blemishes...?? This is a bit hard to confirm, as I've had some existing blemishes subside, but also new ones appear, so I'll need to observe it a bit longer.
Cons
🔪It's a bit drying. The refreshing feeling also means it has a somewhat drying effect. When I just used it as a cleansing toner, my face felt quite dry, so I had to apply 3-5 layers of it. Even with that extensive layering, I didn't feel like my skin was adequately hydrated. So I had to make up for the lack of moisture by using a moisturizing cream afterwards.
Tip
The points I've felt during this short period of use are as described above. In my personal opinion, this toner may not be the best choice for dry skin types, but could be a decent option for oily or combination skin. It seems to be a fairly straightforward toner without any major standout features or effects. However, as I mentioned, even my combination skin experienced a refreshing yet drying sensation, so those who prefer a more hydrating feel may want to consider this carefully. Especially if your skin tends to get particularly dry during seasonal changes or in the winter, this may not be the best pick. Layering it a few times after cleansing does help boost the moisture a bit, but it wasn't until I did around 5 layers that I really felt a proper hydrating effect. So for those who want to use up a product quickly rather than slowly, this could be a suitable choice. I'll continue using up the remaining amount and update this review if I notice any changes in my skin's condition or experience with the product.

Pros
The toner products seemed like ordinary ones. The formula was very watery, so there was no stickiness at all. As a result, the skin absorption was fast and the face was left feeling smooth and powdery (I think it would be good for those with oily skin).
Cons
The fragrance was a bit strong. Due to the watery formula, I felt that the moisturizing effect was almost non-existent. While it absorbed quickly, since I have dry skin, I would have preferred something more moisturizing, which this was not. So for the first week, I applied it directly with my hands without cotton, but even then, the lack of moisturizing effect was noticeable, so I ended up just using it as a cleansing toner! Not recommended for dry skin!
