It works great as a toner mask when applied with pads! I'm sure everyone already knows this, though!

It's a bit disappointing that the packaging has been renewed to a pump. But the new color is prettier, so I guess that's a plus?

I discovered this product thanks to a YouTuber, and I've been stocking up on it every time it's available in the market for years now. I was really stressed about acne on my cheeks, but since using this product, my skin rarely breaks out anymore. I highly recommend it for combination dehydrated skin because it provides hydration while leaving a non-sticky, fresh finish. It's moisturizing with a bonus of being lightweight! As an essence toner, the consistency isn't too watery, which I love. And the volume is seriously monstrous! I'm extremely satisfied with how long it lasts, even when using it as a daily mask routine with cotton pads.

시카 스킨 리페어 하이브리드 에센토너

Currently out of stock everywhere - on Coupang and the official website. They say it'll be back after a product renewal.

It's great to stock up in bulk when there's a sale event. That's the perfect time to buy!

I can't really think of any downsides. The price seems reasonable too.

I love how the texture is lightweight yet provides ample hydration. It feels like it's quenching my skin's thirst!

There's honestly nothing bad to say. I wish I could get it cheaper during a group buy. When's the next group purchase happening? By the way, the Jinjin stickers are super cute!

This product is absolutely incredible! I've tried almost every product out there that claims to be good, but they only work for a short time before my blemishes come back, which was really frustrating. I have combination dehydrated skin with acne, and the dryness was so severe that even low-molecular-weight products like Torriden couldn't quite manage it. But this one? It's a game-changer! I rarely repurchase products, but I love this toner so much that I bought the cream and toner pack too. It's just that good, and I'm thrilled to see my blemishes gradually disappearing. I've finally found my holy grail product... The cooling effect is amazing too. Just buy it, you won't regret it!

The consistency is thicker than water, more like a runny gel, so it doesn't absorb well into cotton pads that come in double layers. I wouldn't recommend this for toner masking if you use those double-layer cotton pads.

I've tried all the famous products out there, but I always end up coming back to this one. I've gone through about 6 bottles so far, and I love that it comes in a generous amount. It's great to apply with just your hands, and it's also perfect for doing a toner mask with thin cotton pads. When my skin feels dry, I layer it multiple times, and it creates an excellent base for makeup.

While toner pads are now available and good to use, it's also great to just use the toner for a toner pack. Doing the '2-skin' or '3-skin' method (layering the toner 2-3 times) is really effective.

It's disappointing that even when purchasing a new product, the toner doesn't come with a seal. Before opening the cap, the lack of a seal makes it feel like someone might have used it if it's been shaken during transit.

The consistency is between a watery toner and a viscous one - just the right balance. It's like the middle ground between Dr. Medio toner and the 'runny nose' toner. I found it comfortable to use as there's no artificial fragrance. After COVID hit and I had to wear masks for long periods, initially using various cheap ones, my skin went haywire. I was worried, but then I saw a YouTuber I like marketing this product who had similar concerns. I thought, 'Well, nothing ventured, nothing gained,' and bought it. Now I'm in my third year of sticking with it. When I do a toner pack, it calms redness and soothes my skin, making it perfect for absorbing the next toner application.

It might be a bit drying in winter. If you have dry skin, you'll probably need to layer a serum underneath.

I've been using this product consistently for 2 years now. It's become a staple in my routine and I'm very satisfied with it!

I think it might be a bit drying for those with dry skin in winter, but it's excellent for summer use.

I loved how it didn't cause any blemishes and felt really firm on my skin. The generous amount in the package was also a plus!

The hydration power isn't particularly outstanding, so in winter you'll need to layer this with an oil or a more potent moisturizing cream for better results.

It works wonders as a skin pack for soothing the skin. The scent is quite neutral and unlikely to be polarizing. You can use it without any hesitation as the fragrance isn't off-putting.

This would be perfect to use when your face feels a bit warm, like after using the Dr. Jart+ Dermask. It seems to work well for some people. I gifted it to a friend while buying it for myself, and I was amazed to see how much it calmed their blemishes and visibly improved their complexion!

As someone with super sensitive skin, I can't deny feeling a slight tingling sensation after application. Rather than deep hydration, it feels more like it creates a layer on the surface of my skin.

After coming back from being out, I always apply this to my face with a cotton pad after cleansing to soothe my skin. I love that it doesn't dry quickly!

Pro tip: Soak 5-ply tissues with a mix of this and an exfoliating toner (just a basic watery one, nothing fancy) until they're nice and damp. Works wonders! Oh, and I skip towel-drying my face, opting to cleanse with the exfoliating toner instead!

There's honestly nothing to complain about, but for toner masking, I mix it with a more watery toner as I prefer a slightly thinner consistency!

As someone with super sensitive combination dehydrated skin prone to severe blemishes that would turn into nasty cystic acne, I used to pile on thick layers of makeup and never dared to go bare-faced, not even lowering my mask due to scarring. But since I started using this toner for daily mask routines, those inflamed breakouts are a thing of the past! Even during my intense PMS when acne usually goes wild, not a single spot appears after masking with this. It's absolutely amazing!
