It's great for tackling deep dryness. One product does it all!

This toner is perfect for someone like me who doesn't like watery formulas. After using it, I noticed a significant reduction in redness. With summer approaching, my redness and heat sensitivity had worsened to the point where my pores were visibly enlarged. But now, the redness has noticeably decreased, and my deep dryness has improved considerably. I'm so happy! Recently, nothing seemed to help with the small bumps on my forehead, which was incredibly stressful. Now, they're barely noticeable even when I apply makeup. The scent isn't overpowering, and despite my initial concerns about the many caution ingredients, it exceeded my expectations!
ConsThe number of caution ingredients is a bit worrying... Since it's also great as a toner pack, I wish it came in a larger size! Other than that, I don't have any major complaints.
TipIf this toner doesn't work for you, you should definitely stop using it. But it works so well for me that I use it generously! When I use it as a toner pack before bed, I wake up with noticeably improved skin texture.

Unlike typical toners that you swipe on with a cotton pad and only provide light surface hydration, this product feels like it's deeply quenching your skin from within! You can skip the cotton pad and simply apply an appropriate amount directly with your hands. It's so hydrating that you might not even need a serum afterward. As someone with sensitive, blemish-prone skin, I found this product to be quite gentle.
ConsIt's a bit disappointing that it contains a few ingredients that aren't ideal for super sensitive skin.
TipFor an extra soothing effect, try storing it in the fridge during summer. The cooling sensation works wonders for calming the 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.ProsThis is a review from The Hwahae Testers. First off, it's a moisturizing and nourishing toner. It's not too oily, so it's suitable for both oily and dry skin types. As someone with dry skin prone to deep dryness, I found myself reaching for it often because it's truly hydrating. I especially recommend it for those with dry skin. Recently, my skin condition had deteriorated rapidly and was irritated, but using this toner helped restore it to its original state to some extent. When I first received it, I tried using it as a mask pack and loved how well it combated dryness. I also recommend it for use as a skin pack. The texture isn't completely watery, nor is it too heavy, making it a formula that many people will likely enjoy. In this summer weather, applying just this toner and an ampoule left my skin feeling moisturized and comfortable. The fragrance isn't strong, with a slightly fresh and cool scent that wasn't off-putting. Even those sensitive to fragrances probably won't find it bothersome. It's been a while since I've used a toner that balances both nutrition and hydration so well, leaving me satisfied. I'd like to repurchase once I've used it all up!
ConsIt's said to contain ingredients that may cause allergic reactions, so those with sensitive skin should be careful to check. Personally, I didn't experience any allergic reactions.
TipThis product is great for those with dry skin concerned about dryness, as it's moisturizing and contains essence. It's nourishing and hydrating, making it an excellent choice for skin packs.

I've tried using it in various ways over the course of a week, and it's great both as a skin pack and for the 7-skin method. The best part is that after using this, I no longer feel any deep dryness, which is fantastic!
ConsUsing this essence toner alone isn't quite enough - it still leaves my skin feeling a bit dry. While it's perfect for use as a skin pack, the volume feels a bit small for liberal use. (Please, please make a larger size available!)
TipIn summer, this toner paired with Physiogel is the perfect combination!

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 after using the product for about 5 days since receiving it as a Hwahae Tester winner! Positives: 1. Quantity The amount is quite generous. As someone who doesn't usually use toner much, I feel like I'll be able to use it liberally for a long time. 2. Texture I have combination dehydrated skin. While other toners can feel sticky or like the moisture just sits on the surface, this product isn't sticky and feels like it deeply hydrates my skin. 3. Scent Some reviews mentioned the scent being too strong, but I didn't find that at all. It has a fresh, pleasant fragrance that didn't bother me during use. 4. Cotton pads The toner came with cotton pads, which are 5-ply. Even when separated, each layer isn't too thin, so I used them individually. The material is very soft and gentle.
ConsDrawbacks: 1. Price It seems a bit on the pricey side. I've never bought toner myself, so I'm not sure about the usual price range, but this one appears to be somewhat expensive...! Other than that, I didn't find any particular downsides.
TipI tried applying it both by pouring it into my hands and using cotton pads. Personally, I preferred using it with cotton pads in a wiping motion. It's great to separate the 5-ply cotton pads and use them individually. Using just 2-3 drops is the perfect amount without wasting product. *As I have combination dehydrated skin, it felt deeply moisturizing for me. However, those with very oily skin might find it a bit sticky. I'd especially recommend this for people with combination dehydrated or dry skin types.

I tend to have a few persistent blemishes, so please keep that in mind!)) 1. Hydration: As someone with oily skin, it felt like a hydration bomb. It was incredibly moisturizing, almost as if my skin was overflowing with hydration. With continued use, I noticed an Inner Glow from deep within my skin. 2. Great mask alternative: Using the included 5-layer cotton pads soaked in toner as a DIY sheet mask was an excellent substitute for traditional sheet masks. (I personally used this method in conjunction with acne medication when I had breakouts.) 3. Finish: For a good while after application, it leaves a satisfyingly moisturized feeling. There was also a nice, firm texture to my skin. 4. 5-layer cotton pads: The included cotton pads are thick and versatile. You can use them one layer at a time or all at once for a plush feel. I often split them into 2-3 layers, soaking them thoroughly to use as an exfoliating toner, wiping once, removing a layer, then wiping again. 5. Packaging: The container design prevents easy leakage. I also found the fragrance quite pleasant.
Cons1. Excessive hydration: For someone with purely oily skin (not combination dehydrated), the hydration felt overwhelming. While the product itself doesn't feel particularly oily, the intense moisture made my face feel heavy after a while, leading to increased oil production. 2. As an oily skin user, I found that this toner focuses solely on hydration without any other notable benefits. While the hydration was too much for my oily skin, I wouldn't personally purchase it at this price point.
Tip1. This would be great for those with dry skin or anyone seeking intense hydration. (For those with oily skin who aren't combination dehydrated, I can't really recommend it.) 2. If you have oily skin, it's best to use this as an exfoliating toner or as a mask substitute. It's too intense for us as a regular toner. 3. I'd prefer using this in winter rather than summer. 4. During summer, I only use this toner when I'm not wearing makeup. 5. Nighttime routine★: After cleansing, I use this product as an exfoliating toner. Just before bed, I gently wipe my face with a cotton pad soaked in plain water. This prevents excessive oiliness and blemishes the next morning.

Personally, I found it quite pleasant! (It's not overwhelmingly masculine, just slightly reminiscent of men's cosmetics rather than women's.) Highly recommended for those with dry skin! It provides such intense hydration that you can feel it addressing even deep dryness. When applied before bed for skin soothing, you wake up with plump, clear skin. Your makeup application the next day will be so flawless, people will notice!
ConsThe stickiness is quite uncomfortable... While some tackiness is expected due to the hyaluronic acid content, it's so sticky that you'll need to wash your hands again after application, which is a bit of a hassle. Definitely not recommended for those with oily or acne-prone skin.
TipIt works well when applied with a cotton pad before bed, focusing on specific areas! I targeted my extremely dry areas, and it really helped replenish moisture.

Moisturizing Power The highest satisfaction with this product was its hydrating ability. Although I received it during the rainy season when it was extremely humid, I feel it would be perfect for winter use. It keeps the skin deeply moisturized without any deep dryness, making skincare a breeze. Highly recommended for those with dry skin! Ingredients As someone with sensitive skin, I always check the ingredients. The Lagom toner had only two concerning components, with the rest being skin-friendly. I was pleased that it didn't cause any adverse reactions when I used it. Application After using cleansing toners, switching to the Lagom toner felt like applying a high-viscosity ampoule. It was also great for doing a skin pack. Scent I'm usually sensitive to artificial fragrances in cosmetics, but I had no issues with this product. The scent was pleasant and subtle, not overpowering at all.
ConsRich Texture As someone with combination dehydrated oily skin, I found it a bit heavy during the hot and humid summer. I ended up using it only before bed in summer, but I think it would be perfect for both morning and night use in winter. For those with dry skin, it would be even better as it prevents that tight, dry feeling without being overwhelming! Exfoliating Toner? Cotton Pads? At first, I thought it was a cleansing toner because it came with cotton pads. However, when I tried to use it that way, it felt a bit harsh. I found it much better to apply directly with my hands, patting it in for absorption.
TipRecommended for dry skin rather than oily skin! Better to pat in for absorption rather than wipe off! Highly recommended for dry winters!

Texture This isn't your typical watery toner. It has a slight stickiness, but it's not as thick as a serum... It's somewhere between water and serum in consistency. 2. Ingredients According to Hwahae, it contains various oils that could potentially be problematic for sensitive skin. However, if you don't have an allergic reaction to oils, these ingredients are actually ideal for combating deep dryness. 3. After application (Hands) When comparing before and after absorption of a few drops on the hand, it's noticeably more hydrated after absorption. There's no stickiness. (1 layer) (Face) I applied two layers on my face using the appropriate amount. Instead of using it as an exfoliating toner, I patted it in with my hands. It definitely tackles deep dryness. However, there was a slightly sticky feeling afterwards. When I used it as an exfoliating toner for 2 layers, it felt less sticky. After use, my skin felt hydrated but not oily - it felt like it was filled with pure hydration, which I loved. 4. Sufficient on its own You don't need to apply essence after this toner. This is another aspect I really appreciated. 5. Personally recommended skin types I recommend this more for dry skin than combination, and more for combination than oily! Those with dry skin can easily combat dryness by applying multiple layers. For those with oily skin, it might feel a bit too much.
Cons1. Price After receiving the essence toner, I saw some guidelines suggesting you can soak a cotton pad generously and leave it on your face like a mask. However, at 30,000 won for 200ml, it feels a bit expensive for toner masking. Even using it as an exfoliating toner feels a bit pricey... I think just washing your hands well and patting it in would be the most economical way to use it. 2. Scent This might be a matter of personal preference, but the scent isn't particularly strong. However, how should I put it... The artificial fragrance + the lingering scent after application wasn't to my liking. Maybe I'm more sensitive to it because my usual toner, emulsion, and essence are almost fragrance-free... Anyway, I didn't like the scent. It's subtle but lasts too long. I deducted 1.5 stars because of this.
TipPat it in with your hands, and if it feels like too much, finish with a light swipe as an exfoliating toner... I figured this out after using the product for a few days. I'm not sure if it's a pro tip, but if you find the intense hydration uncomfortable, you might want to try this method.
