I have extremely sensitive skin, to the point where I even use natural soap for cleansing. This product, perhaps due to its lack of harmful ingredients, wasn't sticky at all and felt light, making it perfect for summer use. One application wasn't quite enough, so I usually did about two layers. It's also great for doing a skin pack. I keep it in the fridge and always do a skin pack in the evening using cotton pads - you can really feel it cooling down your skin temperature. Anyway, I finished the bottle in a month because I wash my face twice a day and do a skin pack daily, but for most people, the generous amount should last quite a while. It worked so well for me that I've repurchased it more than four times!
ConsIf you have dry skin, using this alone isn't enough. You definitely need to follow up with a cream as the next step. Other than that, there are no issues with the ingredients themselves. It's incredibly lightweight and nice. I wish they would come out with a cream or serum from the same line.

Its lightweight formula makes it versatile for various uses. I've been using it as a skin pack every evening, and I love how it provides just the right amount of hydration without feeling greasy. The texture is like flowing water, and it's also suitable for use as a toner.
ConsI wish they would release a larger 500ml size. While the current volume is average, I find myself going through it quickly when using it for toner packs.
TipFor those with oily skin, I recommend buying half-cut cotton pads from Olive Young, using them for toner packs, and then finishing with a soothing gel. This method doesn't leave your skin feeling greasy and helps reduce facial heat, which is great.

After applying, it feels so refreshing that you might wonder if you've just used a toner. It's great for use during hot summer days without feeling heavy on the skin.
ConsIt didn't lock in moisture as much as I expected. I applied it with a cotton pad, then reapplied and patted it in with my hands, but I couldn't really feel much hydration. I wouldn't recommend this for very dry skin types.

Within a minute, my skin had completely absorbed it. Hydration: Perfect for summer use! It's the fastest and lightest moisturizing toner I've ever tried. Recommended Skin Types: While it seems suitable for all skin types, those with dry skin might find it less hydrating during winter months.
ConsWhile it didn't cause any blemishes, I haven't noticed any dramatic skin improvements yet. However, it's a solid, reliable product for everyday use. After consistent use: My skin texture has improved.
TipApply about a coin-sized amount to your hands and gently pat it onto your face twice.

Ideal summer toner: Using moisturizing creams in summer often felt heavy. Instead of cream, I applied this after my exfoliating toner and it absorbed beautifully, leaving my skin feeling light and hydrated. My makeup didn't pill, and this was all I needed for my base skincare! Excellent calming effect: My skin had a bad reaction after using a makeup fixer. Instead of my usual toner, I used this product in my skincare routine and it noticeably soothed my irritated skin! Skin-friendly ingredients: I believe it's crucial to scrutinize ingredients in toners since we use them daily. I appreciated that this product is gentle, free from concerning ingredients, and didn't cause any blemishes. Texture: It feels slightly slippery when first applied, but after patting it in, it absorbs without any stickiness.
ConsDue to its lightweight nature, it might not provide enough hydration for those with dry skin. I'll need to use it a bit longer to see if it improves deep hydration.

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.ProsI've been using this as a gentle exfoliating toner with a cotton pad both morning and night! The best part is that my skin seems less oily even in the afternoon. As someone with oily skin that's greasy year-round, especially in summer (ugh), I feel like it's been less of an issue since I started using this product consistently. I'm pleased that it seems to control oil better than my previous products. The gentle ingredients seem to agree with my sensitive skin - no blemishes, and it's working well for me!
ConsThe downside? It's just... okay, I guess? It's a bit disappointing that I don't feel like 'Wow, this is amazing!' It's more like 'Yeah, this is fine to use.' I'm not getting that 'I need to buy this again as soon as I run out!' feeling, you know?
TipUsing it as an exfoliating toner with a cotton pad feels light and effective!

ConsI anticipated a hydrating sensation since it's a hyaluronic type, but perhaps due to the summer season, it felt a bit too rich for my liking. I even tried using it generously as a toner pack on a cotton pad, but the excess oiliness wasn't ideal for me

The texture is incredibly lightweight with zero stickiness or residue! The Hada Labo Barrier Toner isn't a viscous or intensely hydrating toner, but rather a light one that's perfect for daily use in summer! You can use it for toner masking, the 7-skin method, or layer it multiple times without any stickiness. It absorbs well, leaving your skin feeling fresh, and doesn't cause pilling or heaviness when applying other creams. Calming effect, reduces skin temperature When I used this product as a toner mask with a cotton pad soaked in the product, I noticed my skin temperature dropped significantly after just a few minutes! It's very cooling and would be great for soothing and cooling down skin that's overheated in the hot summer. Gentle and versatile (a plus) You might be surprised that I'm listing 'gentle' as an advantage! But it's truly a product that won't cause blemishes and can be used safely even by those with super sensitive skin. This toner is really versatile and quite watery, but it's not so light that it leaves your skin feeling dry. It provides a bit of hydration while being lightweight, making it perfect for easy, everyday use.
ConsIf you look at the attached photo, you'll see the Hada Labo Gokujyun Emulsion, which is from the same brand. I've used probably more than 10 bottles of that as a staple in my routine. Compared to that product, this toner feels almost like water and is very mild, but to put it negatively, it almost feels like it doesn't have much effect at all!
TipI found that using this as a toner mask really helped to cool down my skin temperature! With the current heatwave, it's unbearably hot, my skin feels saggy, and I'm sweating a lot. I highly recommend using this Hada Labo toner to soothe your skin!

The ingredients are great, so it seems safe for continuous use. Thanks to its doctorally-approved formula, it refines skin texture and is fragrance-free with no irritation.
ConsSince it contains PHA, I wouldn't use it daily. However, as the dead skin cell removal isn't too intense, it could be suitable for morning and evening use if you don't have super sensitive skin.

For oily skin: I tend to have oily skin, but this felt moisturizing without being heavy! It's also great for light application during these hot days. Absorption: It absorbs quite quickly and well, leaving my skin feeling moisturized without being too greasy! It really feels like it's locking in the hydration. Soothing: I have mild redness, and when I applied the toner with a cotton pad like a mask, I could feel the redness subsiding and my skin calming down! Blemishes, redness, and other issues: While using it, my skin didn't feel irritated, nor did the redness worsen or any acne appear! Perhaps due to its good ingredients, it was just right for me. Amount: Personally, I found the amount to be generous and satisfactory! Scent: There's a slight scent when you smell it up close, but it wasn't noticeable enough to be bothersome. Gentle ingredients: I thought it was great that I didn't experience any blemishes while using it, and when I checked the ingredients, they were indeed gentle! It's a great product to use after cleansing! It's also light enough for hot summer days, and because it absorbs well, you can apply it multiple times. Also, I have sensitive skin, but I didn't experience any reactions, and it even helped calm my skin, so I think I'll be using it often.
Cons- It flows out quite quickly, making it inconvenient to apply with hands as it splashes everywhere.. It's better to use it with a cotton pad! (Though it still tends to splash near the opening, making it a bit messy.) - People with very dry skin might still feel dry after using this. Also, because the product is quite light, you might feel some tightness or dryness if you use it in winter.
TipIt works well when applied to the skin like a mask using a cotton pad soaked in the product.
