My face also gets quite warm, so I'm prone to blemishes, unfortunately. Since I struggle with excessive dead skin cells, I'm really focused on exfoliation. When I use this product in the evening, I wake up to find my skin feeling incredibly smooth! The ingredients are mostly good, so I didn't experience any small bumps or deterioration in my skin condition after using it. I was able to use it without any worries! In fact, I felt like it even helped reduce some of the tiny bumps on my skin! I won this Pyunkang Yul product in a giveaway, and it was my first time trying it. I'd say it worked pretty well for me!
ConsThe packaging is a bit disappointing. The lid that you have to twist open is inconvenient. These days, many products come with push-to-open lids, which are much easier to use.

After using it for a week, I'm pleased to report that it didn't irritate my sensitive skin at all! Moreover, it contains AHA and BHA ingredients, which help with exfoliation, so it should be great for managing dead skin cells!
ConsI didn't find any particular downsides! However, if they increased the volume, it could potentially be used as an exfoliating toner as well!

The ingredients were great, and its gentle nature allowed me to use it without causing any blemishes. It seemed particularly effective for removing dead skin cells. I tend to have a lot of flakiness around my nose area, but after using this as a skin pack and gently wiping it off, my skin became smooth and my makeup applied beautifully.
ConsThe amount per unit is a bit disappointing. I mainly use it as a soothing toner pack, but it runs out quickly, making the affordable price feel somewhat pointless. The texture felt a bit slippery. When using it as an exfoliating toner, it seemed to glide over the skin surface, so I had to slowly let it absorb by using it as a pack with a cotton pad. I'm deducting one star because it doesn't absorb immediately.

It's also fragrance-free, making it suitable for those with sensitive noses. I usually get tiny bumps before my period, but this toner seems to exfoliate well, so I noticed fewer of them this time!
ConsWhile it claims to minimize pores, I'm not sure about its effectiveness. My large pores and pre-menstrual skin heat might be affecting my perception though.
TipPro tip: Keep it in the fridge for a refreshing, cooling application!

Using this as an exfoliating toner after showering helped manage my dry skin and had a soothing effect. Personally, Centella Asiatica and Hyaluronic Acid work well for me, so I felt the benefits. When I was concerned about residue after cleansing, using this product left my skin feeling refreshed and purified.
ConsWhile it's good at calming the skin, it lacks in hydration. For those with very dry skin, you'll need to apply multiple layers. It's suitable for light cleansing with a cotton pad.
TipRecommended for oily and sensitive skin types!

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.ProsFragrance-free is a big plus! Since toner is a product you generously apply to your face, having a scent can be bothersome. This product's fragrance-free formula makes it perfect for skin-soaking routines without any worries. Soothing properties are excellent. After summer outings, I always do a toner mask to calm my skin, and many products failed to deliver. This one both hydrates and soothes, making it incredibly useful in the summer. Great for oil control. When used as an exfoliating toner before makeup, it noticeably improves makeup application without needing separate dead skin cell removal. It's an ideal daily product for exfoliating and layering multiple times!
ConsAs for downsides... there aren't really any, except maybe that being a watery toner means it runs out quickly? But that's probably just because I use it so often!

Usually, when I use toner alone, my skin dries out quickly, but this one definitely tackles deep dryness. There's a slight slip to it, but not enough to be bothersome. ✔️Dead Skin Cell Improvement Among all the liquid toners I've tried so far, this seems to be the best at improving dead skin cells! Great stuff.
ConsSince it's a liquid toner, the amount decreases quickly... I wish there was a bit more product.
TipThis product is great for toner masking! For an enhanced cooling effect, try storing it in the refrigerator before use.

It's great for oily, dry, and sensitive skin types. As it's my first time trying a Pyunkang Yul product, I was super excited to use it. The madecassoside ingredient is said to be beneficial for sensitive skin. It's a slightly acidic toner, and I was satisfied with its dead skin cell removal properties too. When applied with a cotton pad, it naturally exfoliates and leaves a soft finish. Despite being a hydrating toner, it doesn't evaporate quickly and has a slight richness to it (the moisturizing effect really lasts). While there's debate about whether exfoliating toners are good or not, I felt this product would be even better if used as an exfoliating toner. My nose tip has been dry lately despite the summer weather, but after using this as an exfoliating toner, it became smooth and hydrated!
ConsAs someone who prefers natural scents, I found the fragrance a bit artificial rather than natural. The slightly oily finish made it a bit challenging to use with other skincare products. For me, I think I prefer toners that evaporate quickly, leaving the skin deeply hydrated but with a smooth surface. That works better when applying serums or ampoules afterward. I wish it was a toner that could be applied immediately after cleansing without leaving an oily feeling.

No blemishes appeared during use, and it seems to be fragrance-free, which I really liked. The AHA and PHA ingredients are said to gently exfoliate dead skin cells, and I did feel like my skin became a bit smoother. I used it for about a week, so I couldn't notice any significant changes in pore size. Maybe because it's summer, my pores seemed to get larger, haha! The texture isn't powdery, but it contains moisturizing ingredients, so it balanced the oil and moisture well and didn't leave my skin feeling tight afterwards. It seems perfect for combination dehydrated skin and complex skin types. The lightweight formula also makes it great for layering two or three times.
ConsAt first, it was a bit difficult to remove the seal when opening the lid, and when closing the cap, it felt a bit loose. It's plastic and lightweight, which is nice, but not very sturdy. This didn't cause any problems during use, and if it helps reduce costs even a little, that's fine. This isn't really a downside, but I wouldn't recommend it for those looking for a completely matte toner in summer. It might also not be moisturizing enough for those with dry skin.
TipIt's good to apply it twice because one layer feels a bit insufficient. In midsummer, it's great to chill it and use it with cotton pads as a mask to soothe the skin and reduce heat.

The quantity is quite generous. There's no harsh fragrance. It refines skin texture and removes dead skin cells. It doesn't cause any blemishes.
ConsThere's not really anything to complain about. Well... maybe the lid is a bit stiff to close, but that's about it.
TipI use a well-soaked cotton pad to even out my skin texture, then gently pat my skin multiple times with the remaining essence on the pad to help it absorb. This way, the hydration lasts longer!
