진정 시작 토너

Rather than using it as an exfoliating toner, I find it works best to apply about a coin-sized amount directly with clean hands after cleansing!

Sometimes when I'm too lazy to wash my face, I even use it instead of cleansing water lol (That's how much of a holy grail toner it is for me!)

1. In winter, it's slightly lacking in hydration, so you might need to switch to a richer cream. 
-Its light feel is a plus, but it might be a bit too light for winter! I apply 2-3 layers during this time! -> If that's still not enough, I switch from a hydrating cream to one with a richer texture!

2. Due to its watery consistency, it absorbs slowly into cotton pads!
-So I generously soak one cotton pad with toner, then place another pad on top and press down firmly!
(Like making a cosmetic hamburger... lol)

I have oily skin. 
1. It provides just the right amount of hydration with a suitable consistency. -> The texture is like clear nasal mucus..? (Sounds weird, but it really feels great on the skin!)
(If you need more hydration, apply multiple layers! For oily skin, 1-2 layers are usually enough!)

2. When my face felt hot, using this toner as a skin pack quickly calmed it down. 
(Since the toner is quite watery, make sure to saturate the cotton pad well!)

3. I noticed my skin barrier getting stronger. 
(After switching to this toner, I didn't experience any blemishes when trying new cosmetics/excluding hormonal changes)

4. It's not bad in terms of value for money. 
(One bottle lasted at least 2-3 months with daily use, morning and night!)

Do you have super sensitive skin? Do functional products make your skin react badly? If you're a skin siren, I can guarantee that the Glowberry soothing line will work wonders for you! I have exactly that type of skin, so I can vouch for it!

I wish the quantity was a bit more. It would be great if they could increase the volume without changing the product formulation.

I bought this toner on YouTuber Min-jung's recommendation, and I've been using it for about 3 bottles now! It has this unique texture that feels like aloe gel but also watery at the same time. When you apply it, you can instantly feel your skin being soothed. It's like you can sense your skin loving it! I tried using a certain D* toner after this, but the calming effect of this product is definitely superior, so I'm sticking with it. Now, I can't imagine taking care of my skin without Glowberry. I really hope they never discontinue this line!

The texture is a bit viscous, so it doesn't absorb super quickly. However, it's not too slow either, so I don't mind and continue using it without worry.

The soothing effect is truly remarkable. When I have lots of small blemishes or pus-filled spots that don't respond to any toner, this product works wonders. The very next day, you can see how calmed your skin becomes. I'm already on my 6th bottle of this product!

None! Although there's a generous amount, it feels like I'm using it up quickly. No complaints whatsoever!

The runny texture makes it absorb well. It's packed with hydration. This toner is absolutely fantastic!

For an extra soothing effect, try using it as a skin pack with thin cotton pads!

There's absolutely nothing to complain about!

I bought this because it contains many ingredients that work well for me. I love that it's fragrance-free! The consistency is perfect - not too watery, not too sticky. It's just right for doing a skin pack, and it's great for soothing my skin too!

There's honestly nothing bad to say. I'm so satisfied with this product that no matter how hard I try, I can't find any downsides. If anything, the lack of flaws is the only flaw!

I keep this in the bathroom and apply it right after cleansing. It's incredibly moisturizing and I feel like my deep dryness has significantly reduced. Usually, when a product doesn't suit me, I break out immediately, but with this one - not a single blemish! I'm absolutely thrilled with it! I plan to stick with this product for the long haul. It's truly amazing!

I'm completely satisfied with its gentle ingredients. There's really nothing to complain about.

Glowberry's Calming Start Toner is a soothing toner that quickly calms skin irritated by external factors and cleansing, while refining skin texture. It's a transparent, fragrance-free formula with a fluid consistency that absorbs instantly, leaving no sticky residue. This toner deeply hydrates the skin, eliminating any feeling of dryness and leaving your complexion comfortable, moisturized, smooth, and clear. You can expect a radiant complexion with regular use.

There was a bit of stickiness after application! The scent might be hard to describe, but if you're familiar with the smell of slime, it was quite similar to that...

I received this as a gift and tried it out. It has a slightly more viscous texture compared to other toners - it's not a water-like formula! Although I haven't been using it for long, I've noticed that when I wake up after applying it, my blemishes seem somewhat calmed. I have a feeling that with consistent use, they might improve even more!

There's not much to complain about, but it's a shame that you can't purchase it offline. The price isn't too steep either, so I'm quite satisfied overall.

It's incredibly hydrating and surprisingly effective at combating deep dryness for my combination dehydrated skin! I had high hopes for its soothing properties since it's marketed as a calming toner. Initially, I just applied it with my hands and didn't see dramatic results. However, when I used it as a skin pack on specific areas, the effects were noticeable! I had a few large blemishes on my cheeks, but after using it as a skin pack morning and night, they were significantly reduced by the next morning!
