I can't think of anything positive to say. It's really disappointing. I bought this after reading reviews, but...
ConsAfter using it, my skin broke out with tons of tiny blemishes. I realized it didn't suit my skin just before it completely flared up. It doesn't feel hydrating at all, just sticky.

My usual routine: Water-based toner (almost like water, no slip, for hydration) - Hydrating ampoule (virtually oil-free) - Moisture-locking ampoule (slightly oily texture to form a thin barrier) - Cream (prefer products that form a barrier without feeling slippery or greasy, need something with good staying power to lock in oil and moisture balance). I tried this as a more hydrating alternative to my water-based toner or as a replacement. I can't stand products that feel slippery at the toner stage as it makes everything applied afterwards feel heavy. It's hard to find a product that absorbs well, hydrates without oils, and doesn't feel slippery... After reading all the reviews, I thought this might be it. While it's not perfect for me, those with a stronger skin barrier will likely be satisfied. When you rub it between your hands, it feels less slippery than those toners advertised as moisturizing with high glycerin content. But when applied, it actually provides better hydration. Using this alone won't give you an extreme moisture boost, but as the first layer on your skin, it certainly fulfills its role as a toner admirably. It hydrates well without being sticky or slippery - that's exactly what it does!
ConsWhile it's great value for money and effective, I had to stop using it as I experienced a slight burning sensation the more I used it.

I occasionally get small blemishes, but nothing major. 🍃 Packaging 🍃 Excellent! When the product arrived, I was impressed by the lack of excessive packaging. They used reusable cushioning material, which I appreciated. The product box itself was sturdy and custom-made for the item, preventing any movement during shipping. 🍃 Quantity 🍃 Fantastic! 400ml is an enormous amount! I initially wondered how I'd use it all. While I didn't use it as a toner pack or with cotton pads as suggested, I imagine it would go quickly if used that way. 🍃 Texture and Application 🍃 Very Good! The texture is like a soft, watery essence. When applying, I was concerned it might feel heavy or oily, which usually causes breakouts and excess oil production for me. However, after patting it in, it finished with a refreshing feel. 🍃 Hydration 🍃 Very Good! Two layers were enough to keep my skin moisturized. Even after blow-drying my hair, my skin didn't feel dry or tight. The hydration level was satisfactory for me. 🍃 Scent 🍃 Good! It's fragrance-free, which I find appealing. Some products have overwhelming scents, so I'm drawn to this unscented option. 🍃 Overall Rating 🍃 Very Good! While the price might seem high, considering the quantity, some may find it reasonable. It's fragrance-free, but I think a subtle citrus scent would complement it well. If you have oily skin like me but need hydration, and prefer a lightweight yet moisturizing product, I recommend giving this a try!
ConsWhile it worked well for my oily skin, my mother, who has dry skin, found it less effective. She said it didn't feel very moisturizing even after four applications. Unfortunately, she also developed some small bumps. It's important to carefully check the product information before purchasing.

I was selected as part of The Hwahae Testers to try this product. - The generous amount makes it easy to use liberally. I mainly used it as an exfoliating toner, applying it to my palms and absorbing it two or three times. - Texture: It has a water-like consistency, more suitable as an exfoliating toner. I tried using it as a skin pack, but it seemed to evaporate quickly. Despite its watery texture, when absorbed into the hands, it felt as hydrating as a more viscous formula. While it's water-like, it's not too runny and provides just the right amount of hydration - I'm completely satisfied! - It feels genuinely gentle. Perhaps because it's vegan, slightly acidic, and made with good ingredients, my skin feels comfortable after use. - I love that it's an ethical product that considers the environment and animals. It seems to be a decent product without any standout pros or cons. I'm not sure if it's exceptionally good, but it has good ingredients and is easy to use generously...?
ConsDay 5 of use (2021/05/16) I've developed blemishes on my chin and forehead. I'm not sure if it's due to the toner or my menstrual cycle, but since this is the only skincare product I've changed, I'm suspicious. That's why I'm giving it 3 stars...!!! I'll update my review after using it more.
TipOn days when I need my makeup to apply smoothly, I layer this product 4-5 times. Then, after patting on some cream, my skin is perfectly prepped for flawless makeup application!

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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, let me describe my skin: I have quite sensitive skin prone to a lot of blemishes. Before using this product, I had been using oily skincare products, which made my acne even worse. Hydration: As advertised, this toner definitely has great moisturizing power. Even with just the toner alone, my skin didn't feel dry at all! It was truly amazing. The hydration doesn't feel greasy either. The texture isn't heavy, but rather incredibly light. Also, seeing how the blemishes I had from previous oily products subsided while using this toner, I don't think it's a very oily type. It's really lightweight with great hydration... So I'd recommend it to those who want a light skincare routine and those who often feel dryness! Large size: The large volume is also great. I'd recommend this to those who like to do exfoliating toner or 'skin-pack' routines.
ConsI'm also someone who tends to get large blemishes... While using this, I developed two or three large, itchy blemishes under my chin... I really don't recommend this for people like me with super sensitive skin and who are very, very prone to blemishes.

So I switched my toner, and wow! My skin texture and complexion have really improved compared to before!
ConsAfter three weeks, I couldn't feel any improvement, so I compared my skin with old photos. To my dismay, it had actually gotten worse! I used to get only 1-2 blemishes a week, but now they're popping up almost daily.

Even my dermatologist said they've never seen a case like mine... After developing contact dermatitis from using D* foundation, I started paying attention to ingredients. For years, I've been searching on Hwahae for products without pore-clogging ingredients and tried countless items! As a result, I discovered that so many ingredients don't agree with my face - acids, natural oils (like jojoba), various extracts (centella, mugwort, etc.), fragrances, active ingredients... It's overwhelming! 😢 My skin is so sensitive that I can't even use sunscreen on my face (I only apply it around my eyes where there are no sebaceous glands). Centella and madecassoside are major culprits that give me contact dermatitis. You know how hard it is to find products without centella these days, right? Despite my ultra-sensitive skin, the main reason I applied to be a Hwahae Tester for this product is that it's centella-free, slightly acidic, and vegan - which I absolutely love. After using it for over a week, I was worried about the allantoin, but maybe because it's in small amounts, I didn't experience any blemishes! The emulsion I use tends to be drying, so I'm thrilled to have found a toner that works well for me. Current emulsion: Soon Jung Tea Tree Oil Control Emulsion (currently using)
Cons(Update) With continued use, I developed blemishes. I strongly recommend testing it for at least 5 days!
TipI highly recommend this to those who have oily, shiny skin but lack hydration!

I used to use Tony Moly toner, but this one is definitely much better. My blemishes have reduced significantly! Once I finish this bottle, I'll definitely be buying it again with my own money.
ConsWell, this is just my personal experience, but I used to get acne on my cheeks and small bumps on my forehead. After switching to this toner, the acne on my cheeks almost completely cleared up, but I started getting pustules on my forehead.
TipAfter cleansing, I soaked a cotton pad with the toner and left it on as a mask for 5 minutes.

Hydration As the weather suddenly changed to autumn, my skin became sensitive and irritated. I was barely managing with an emulsion that had almost no oil. While it helped improve my overall skin texture and blemishes, I was experiencing severe deep dryness, possibly due to the lack of glycerin. That's when I won this product. At first, I was hesitant to use it due to some ingredients, but I decided to try it for the review. After patting it on and applying only the emulsion, I was surprised to find that the dryness I used to feel was almost gone. It doesn't give an overwhelming hydration on the surface, but it leaves a moisturized feeling deep within, which I preferred. It's more like a thin essence than a watery toner, and it absorbs well as you pat it in without leaving any residue. I think it could be effective for deep dryness with consistent use. 2. Volume I've always found it disappointing to see toners run out quickly, as I use them for exfoliating and masking as well. But with this large volume, I feel more at ease. Unlike other products that finish within a month of generous use, I don't have to worry about that with this one. 3. Due to my sensitive skin, I've been researching and learning that it's good to use slightly acidic products for your entire skincare routine, not just cleansing products. So I was looking for a slightly acidic toner, and I'm pleased that this product meets that criteria.
ConsYou might wonder why I gave it 2 stars when all my comments about its toner functions are positive. Unfortunately, my sensitive skin reacted badly to it, possibly due to an incompatible ingredient. The very next day, my skin flared up... My skin texture became bumpy and irritated, and comedonal acne appeared in several areas, so I immediately stopped using it. I was skeptical that one use could cause this, but this was the only change in my skincare routine. After discontinuing it and using other care products, my skin is starting to recover. If it was indeed this product, I suspect it might be due to the citric acid, although it's listed near the bottom of the ingredients. There are no reviews similar to mine, and most people seem to have had good experiences, so I'm not entirely sure which ingredient caused the issue. If anyone knows, please leave a comment! I liked how it helped with my deep dryness, but my skin hasn't fully recovered yet, so I can't use it again. I'll test it once more when my skin improves and update with a more accurate review. Before that, I recommend that those with very sensitive skin, who are picky about ingredients, and have a compromised skin barrier, should first test a small amount to check for compatibility before increasing usage!
