레티놀 앰플 토너

Since I have combination dehydrated skin prone to blemishes, I was hoping to find a solution in one go with a slightly viscous toner. Unfortunately, it wasn't quite the miracle worker I was looking for.

I'm not sure if the retinol is effective. It just felt average, like it wasn't really sinking in? It didn't seem to moisturize well either.

For combination dehydrated skin with enlarged pores, some products can cause blemishes on the nose when they're too rich. This product, which I discovered while looking for something with a bit of viscosity, works well. The absorption and application improve over time.

Soak a cotton pad and apply it like a mask on the forehead and nose bridge for 10 minutes. Excellent for minimizing pores and removing excess sebum.

The runny texture makes it heavy, so it's best suited for winter use. Not recommended for summer!

Great for sensitive skin beginners to retinol. Using it as a toner instead of a serum or cream is ideal for first-time users.

1. Recommended use every other day when starting

Gradually increase from 2-3 times a week to daily use
Patch test essential for sensitive skin

2. Prefer using palms over cotton pads

Cotton pads may increase potential for irritation
Apply product with hands, gently pressing into skin for absorption

3. Sunscreen is crucial when using retinol products

Avoid morning use, preferably apply at night
If used during the day, always follow with SPF 30 or higher sunscreen

4. Minimize irritation through hydration layering

Follow toner with a hydrating serum or cream
Particularly effective in preventing deep dryness during seasonal changes

1. May cause slight tingling initially

Especially on sensitive days or when skin is compromised after cleansing

2. Increased sensitivity when used with exfoliating ingredients

Caution advised when using simultaneously with AHA, BHA, or scrub products

3. May not provide sufficient hydration for extremely dry skin

Recommended to follow with a moisturizing cream or serum after toner application

1. Gentle Retinol

Mild retinol formula suitable for daily care, even for sensitive skin

Known as the "Daily Retinol Toner"

2. 2-in-1 Toner + Ampoule Formula

Moisturizing with excellent absorption
Provides hydration even when used alone

3. Improves Skin Texture

Effectively smooths rough areas around pores and evens skin tone
Consistent use leads to refined skin texture

4. Blemish Care

Helps balance sebum and oiliness, addressing small bumps

5. Stabilizes Oil-Moisture Balance

Controls excess oil while preventing deep dryness

I'm using this along with a hydrating mask, as recommended by a YouTuber.

When I apply it while I'm not feeling well, the area around my eyes gets a bit red and there's a tingling sensation.

I've been using this for two years now, both morning and night, and it doesn't cause any irritation.

If you generously apply it to your face before sleeping, you'll notice a significant difference in your skin's condition when you wash your face in the morning.

Despite claims that it's safe for daytime use, I still only apply it at night since it contains retinol. I make sure to wash it off thoroughly in the morning. This is just my personal preference though.

This is an incredibly hydrating retinol serum packed with moisture. It's not completely liquid, but has a slight viscosity that helps the hydration linger on your skin's surface after application. While retinol is typically sensitive to sunlight and used only at night, this product contains a gentler form of retinol that can be used during the day. It's also less likely to cause blemishes for first-time retinol users.

When you apply it generously before bed, you'll notice your skin has a beautiful glow the next morning. It's one of my go-to products for days when my complexion needs a boost. The fresh scent makes it suitable for everyone, so I highly recommend it.

After cleansing in the evening, I use an exfoliating toner with a pad, then apply this by patting it into my skin! Since I have combination dehydrated skin, I might not notice it as much, but I've heard retinol products can lack hydration. So, it's probably best to follow up with a serum or cream after applying this!

Due to the low retinol content, I didn't see the significant effects typically associated with retinol products...

I recommend this for beginners who want to check if retinol suits their skin, as it doesn't have a high retinol content! The texture is a bit thicker for a toner, so I use it as an absorbing toner rather than an exfoliating one or as a pack. It worked well even for my sensitive combination dehydrated skin. While I didn't notice any dramatic effects, I felt it evened out my skin texture. I like that it contains various ingredients besides retinol, such as vitamin C!

Since developing dermatitis, I've been hesitant to use it after checking the ingredients...

It's incredibly moisturizing and delivers amazing hydration! Great for layering and makeup applies smoothly over it.

There's nothing particularly disappointing about this product. It has a floral scent, but it's not strong enough to be bothersome.

Key ingredients include pure retinol, collagen, vitamin C derivatives, and hyaluronic acid. The balance between hydration and oil is excellent. I think it's a great main toner, especially during seasons when skin tends to get dry easily.

I bought a 200ml pump bottle from Daiso and transferred the product into it for easier use. I got this tip from reading reviews on Coupang, and it works great. Since it's affordable, I even apply it generously on areas like my chest.

As someone with dry and super sensitive skin, I didn't find it particularly irritating. To be honest, there's nothing really disappointing about this product that I can point out.

I wanted to use a retinol product but was looking for something gentle that I could use without worry. I bought this because it's in toner form, and it has a runny consistency. It's suitable for morning use too, so I apply it like an essence. After using it for over a month, I feel like my skin is becoming more supple and firm. I plan to repurchase it in the future.

The scent was quite off-putting. It had an alcohol-like smell, reminiscent of old-fashioned men's aftershave, which I really didn't enjoy.

Unlike other ampoule toners that are mostly watery, this product has a thicker consistency. It feels more like applying a nourishing ampoule or serum rather than a toner, which I really appreciated. I noticed that on days when I used this toner alongside my retinol cream, the effects seemed particularly impressive.

Using this with a retinol cream improves skin texture. If you use it consistently for over two weeks, you'll notice your skin getting better.

The scent is a bit disappointing... There's a slight alcohol smell mixed in.

It's best to apply this as a toner pack or let it absorb into the skin. The price is wallet-friendly, making it great for everyday use, and it's even better because it doesn't cause any irritation. I found it works wonders when I let it absorb before applying my retinol cream.
