It contains green tea extract, giving off a subtle, authentic green tea scent. While it doesn't absorb instantly into the skin, it quickly sinks in when you gently pat it. It's better to use with a cotton pad rather than applying directly with hands. The generous volume lasts about 1-2 months per bottle, and I love how it helps manage deep dryness after using Melixir toner. Highly recommended!
ConsI have pretty resilient skin, so I didn't experience any blemishes while using it. However, since it doesn't absorb super quickly, it's best to use it as a mask with toner pads!
TipRecommendedFor combating deep dryness, it's fantastic to soak toner pads generously and place them on your cheeks!

It's soothing and doesn't cause any irritation or redness, which I really appreciate.
ConsRecommendedThere's nothing to dislike about this product. It's truly flawless.

I've been using this along with the bamboo serum and cream - just a little in summer, but more generously as autumn approaches. It's absolutely wonderful... I'm already on my second bottle of each! The sunscreen is fantastic, and the tinted lip balm and all the other skincare products are simply amazing.
ConsRecommendedThere's nothing bad to say, really! Oh, occasionally there's a bit of product that gets stuck around the opening of the bottle, but that's about it.

ConsRecommendedApart from that, it lacks sufficient hydration during seasonal changes, so you need to apply a barrier cream separately

It's particularly effective when you're dealing with severe blemishes! You can even use it as a mask by soaking a cotton pad.
ConsThe price point is a bit steep, which makes it hard to use liberally without feeling guilty.
TipRecommendedFor best results, try soaking a cotton pad with the product and keeping it in the fridge before use!

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. 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 first learned about this vegan brand when I received a set (toner, cream, sunscreen) as a gift from Hana Bank. After trying the toner, I repurchased it. The gifted set was in a glass bottle, but the repurchased product is made of Recycled PET, which is much lighter than the glass bottle. The ingredients are 100% green tea extract, so it's completely pure. Without any ingredients other than green tea, the toner has a deep brown color, like steeped green tea🍵. Since green tea has the ability to soothe skin inflammation, the acne and blemishes that appeared when I used other toners disappeared after using this one. The hydration from the green tea calms the skin. The toner has a water-like texture with no stickiness at all. I think it has a green tea scent, but my sibling says it smells like traditional herbal medicine. However, the scent is not off-putting.
ConsThe bottle is difficult to carry around and heavy, which was a downside when using it, but the packaging has changed for the repurchased product, which is great. ㅎㅎ I recommend patting it in several times to help it absorb, as it's watery and tends to run off easily. Patting it in makes the next essence or serum absorb much better. The difference in absorption of the following skincare products is significant when you pat it in versus just applying it.
TipRecommendedAfter using the toner, be sure to pat it in several times to help it absorb👏🏻

It provided sufficient moisture and helped cleanse and tidy up my skin after use. It also helps prevent blemishes. The scent is quite appealing, and it gives a sense of relaxation to the skin. It's said to be 100% green tea, and as the ingredients are so good, it seems the Melixir brand, which was one of the first to become famous for vegan cosmetics, has good branding. I think it would be good for pregnant women to use as well. The bottle is so pretty that I even used it as a flower vase after finishing the product.
ConsRecommendedThe only downside is that due to the high-quality ingredients, the shelf life and expiration date are relatively short.

Since it's a vegan cosmetic, I've been using it even more.
ConsIt has a unique scent. The color is also quite deep, so I'm concerned that the color might stain my face.
TipRecommendedIt doesn't stain white clothes. Be careful though ㅠㅠ

ConsAs I mentioned above, the fragrance is too unpleasant, which is the downside.
