It's the type that immediately shows signs when a product doesn't suit me or when I'm stressed. Generally, I dislike sticky textures, so I prefer watery toners or exfoliating toners. After using only watery toners for a while, I was lucky enough to be selected as one of The Hwahae Testers! I used this product consistently every morning for a week. The texture is more like a runny nose than a watery toner, and the large volume was a plus as I could use it generously without worry. I think the advantage of this type of toner is that it lasts much longer than watery or exfoliating toners.
ConsFor someone like me who dislikes sticky textures, this toner was a bit disappointing...

Here's what I loved: 1. The bottle is generously sized. 2. Even though I have dry skin, it didn't feel tight after applying just the toner! It's incredibly hydrating. 3. When used as a skin pack, it really calms my skin down. 4. I have dry skin that's prone to occasional blemishes, but I haven't had a single breakout since using this product! 5. The scent isn't overpowering. I've often gotten headaches from strongly scented skincare products, but the Rhodiola toner has such a subtle, almost fragrance-free aroma that I really appreciate.
Cons1. The finish feels a bit sticky, unfortunately. 2. The price point is on the higher side...
TipDon't forget to try it as a skin pack!

The moisturizing effect is top-notch - it's simply the best. You could get by with just this toner alone, it's that effective.
ConsUnfortunately, it feels quite sticky. It doesn't absorb well into cotton pads, and it takes a while to sink into the skin. Such a shame!
TipMake sure to apply it in thin layers! I found that applying multiple thin layers works much better.

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.ProsTo be honest, I didn't have high expectations, but this product exceeded them. First off, I usually get small bumps immediately when I use products with even the slightest oiliness. I don't typically get many inflamed blemishes, but my skin is quite sensitive to developing small bumps. However, since using this product, I haven't had a single small bump appear. I've been using it for about 10 days, and there's been no additional breakouts. Perhaps it's because it hydrates without irritation or oiliness, but my skin's overall condition has significantly improved. Since I'm prone to small bumps, I usually keep my skincare routine very light, just using a lightweight emulsion. Sometimes this leaves my skin feeling dry, but after applying this product followed by the light emulsion, I didn't experience any dryness at all. My body skin is extremely dry, so I usually need a body emulsion after showering (I typically need a deeply moisturizing body emulsion to feel comfortable, like Illiyoon Ultra Repair). Out of curiosity, I tried this product on my body instead of my usual body emulsion (the large size makes it less daunting to use on the body). Surprisingly, this alone was enough - I genuinely didn't feel any dryness with just this product. That's how I realized how hydrating it truly is. I'm extremely satisfied just knowing it doesn't cause small bumps and provides ample hydration.
ConsTo be honest, there aren't any real downsides. If I had to nitpick, there's a very slight stickiness right when you first apply it, but it only lasts about 20 seconds. Once it's absorbed, there's no stickiness at all.
TipIt's great value for the large size, lightweight yet deeply moisturizing. Perfect for slathering on generously, whether it's on your face or body.

It's not completely watery, but has a slightly thicker consistency.
ConsI was disappointed by how sticky it felt after application. As I have oily skin, I think this would be better suited for winter use rather than now.

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.ProsAs a member of The Hwahae Testers, I'll provide an honest review without any embellishment. First off, I don't particularly plan to repurchase this product. My skin doesn't feel extremely tight, but I do experience some surface dryness. I have combination-dry skin that's slightly sensitive. Texture: The texture reminds me of Tony Moly's Mochi Toner. Those with very dry skin might find it incredibly hydrating, but for combination-dry or combination skin types like mine, it feels a bit runny. Oddly, it becomes slightly sticky when layered. It might be suitable for those with extremely dry skin, though I can't say for certain as that's not my skin type. Ingredients: The ingredient list seems decent. It should be suitable for those with sensitive skin. However, I felt a slight sensation on my skin - not exactly irritation, but something noticeable. I've stopped using it for now, but as I'm not ultra-sensitive, it might just be my imagination. I'll update after further use! Soothing and Hydration: It provides some soothing effects, but don't expect miracles. The hydration, however, is quite good. Effects: Unfortunately, it doesn't offer any brightening or anti-aging benefits, which is a bit disappointing. Volume: At 500ml, it's a generous size. If you're using it for the '7-skin method' or as a mask, how quickly you go through it will depend on your cotton pad quality. My cotton pads aren't top-tier and tend to absorb a lot of product, so I'm a bit worried about using it up quickly. Given how much you need to saturate the cotton pad, it might be better as a 'first toner' as the name suggests, rather than for more intensive methods. The price isn't as budget-friendly as the Tony Moly Mochi Toner, falling on the pricier side. It's also a bit heavy for a first toner. Design: The bottle design, as shown in the attached photo, is quite nice. I was satisfied with this aspect. Compared to Tony Moly's Mochi Toner, I still prefer the latter. It's more affordable, and while both are gentle, the Mochi Toner feels more hydrating and soothing. However, this product is decent overall.
ConsSkin Type: I wouldn't recommend this for oily or combination dehydrated skin types. Price: It wasn't exactly budget-friendly for me. Texture: While similar, I preferred Tony Moly's Mochi Toner. This one becomes strangely sticky when layered, which I didn't enjoy. Scent: There's a fragrance that I found a bit strong and unpleasant. Those sensitive to scents should consider this before purchasing. These factors led me to give it 4 stars.
TipA little tip: When this product feels sticky, applying Dr.G Multi Fluid afterwards seems to eliminate the stickiness, which is nice.

Having skin prone to redness, I've been sticking to a routine of morning water cleanse and evening cleansing water foam. I've only been using a Rhodiola toner and a cream I've been using for a while - just these two products. Being sensitive-skinned, I was ready to stop if any irritation occurred, but thankfully that didn't happen. The product isn't too sticky, so I even used it on my body. My dead skin cells have calmed down, though I'm not sure if it's because of this product. It's just a decent, all-around product that's good for everyday use. The large volume makes it great for body use too!
ConsThis product doesn't have any particularly outstanding pros or cons. I thought it might be a bit heavy for a skin pack as it's a slightly viscous toner. However, it's not sticky or anything like that.

My skin type: combination dehydrated, sensitive skin! (After having a baby, hormonal imbalance made my skin super sensitive with blemishes popping up everywhere.) Texture: Runny consistency (similar to La*ge's Cream Skin) Hydration: Excellent. Usually, I cleanse, wipe with toner on a cotton pad, then apply 2-3 layers. But with this, just one wipe leaves skin hydrated without any deep dryness. Layering 2-3 times creates a moisture seal, maintaining hydration for long! Very gentle! As mentioned, when my skin is sensitive, some skincare products can sting. But this doesn't sting at all (other products I used after toner slightly stung...). It doesn't irritate eyes either, which is great. In conclusion, despite my troubled skin, this product significantly calmed it down. Soothing effect confirmed. I was looking for a new toner since my usual one was discontinued... I think I'll switch to this one.
ConsDue to its runny consistency, it takes time to absorb. When layering 2-3 times, it takes about 2 minutes to absorb fully. It creates a moisture seal, but leaves a slightly sticky feeling. However, it doesn't pill when layering other products (which is a good point).
TipMany people use the 7-skin method, layering multiple times. To avoid pilling when applying subsequent ampoules, essences, or creams, 2-3 layers is ideal. If you're finishing with just toner and cream (OR toner and essence), you can layer more and let it absorb! Exfoliating with a toner first, then patting on 2-3 layers really helps with dehydrated skin! I often do hydrating masks with toners, and this one is perfect as it's non-irritating. I keep half-cut thin cotton pads (from Olive Young) soaked in toner in the fridge. After cleansing, use an exfoliating toner, then do a toner mask - it's excellent for reducing puffiness, soothing skin, and caring for pores. (Personally, I avoid using towels after cleansing... too much dust, and the fabric irritates skin. Just switching from towels to exfoliating toner for a month can greatly improve skin texture.) My skincare routine: Toner (exfoliating toner - toner mask for 5-10 mins - 2-3 layers) - Ampoule - Essence - Cream to finish When wearing makeup, I sometimes skip cream to avoid pilling.

By morning, my skin was still moisturized with a subtle glow - not greasy at all - making my complexion look even better. - The consistency is perfect for use as a mask too - not too runny! - I love how gentle the fragrance is. There's no overwhelming scent, just a feeling of quality ingredients.
Cons- One downside is that once you remove the seal, the cap tends to open too easily. - While it feels refreshing on application, it can leave a slightly sticky residue (though this seems unavoidable for such a hydrating product).
TipAfter cleansing, soak a cotton pad with the toner and leave it on your face for 5 minutes before applying makeup. Your skin will absorb it beautifully!

The hydration was good, and since it's not a watery toner, it didn't evaporate quickly. I think it would be suitable for those with dry skin who aren't particularly sensitive. And I really loved the volume of the product!
ConsAs someone who prefers a matte finish, I found this toner a bit sticky for my liking. I tried both wiping it on and layering it three times, but it made my T-zone extremely oily. My cheeks, which tend to be sensitive, developed a slightly bumpy texture...
TipIf you don't have sensitive skin, you might enjoy this product. When I applied three layers, it felt quite moisturizing... Any more than that would be excessive. I'd recommend this for those with dry skin.
