Advantages: - Redness reduction & soothing effect: The onion extract seems to help calm the skin and alleviate redness! - Thin essence texture: It's not a watery toner, but an essence with a slight viscosity, which helps the hydration last longer. - Strengthens skin barrier: Contains panthenol, ceramides, etc., which help care for a weakened skin barrier! - Gentle formulation: Fragrance-free, colorant-free, and alcohol-free, making it great even for super sensitive skin!
ConsDisadvantages: - Somewhat slow absorption: Due to its viscosity, it takes a bit of time to fully absorb. There's a slight feeling of residue even after absorption. - May not fully address deep dryness: While moisturizing, it might not be enough on its own for combination dehydrated or dry skin types. I recommend layering it multiple times for these skin types! - The serum tends to stick around the bottle opening when inserting and removing the dropper. The opening seems a bit too small.
TipPro tips: - Use as a toner mask: Soaking cotton pads and applying them to your face is effective for soothing redness! - Change absorption method: Instead of patting with your hands, pressing gently with your palms led to better absorption! - Layer it up: Applying two or three layers helps maintain hydration for longer!

It seems like it would be suitable for those with dry skin.
ConsAs someone with combination dehydrated skin, I felt it was too rich in oils rather than providing hydration.

I can't remember exactly how many times I've bought it since I always get it from wherever has the biggest discount, but I've definitely gone through quite a few bottles! For my combination dehydrated skin, it provides just the right amount of hydration without being drying. I love that even when I only apply this toner, my skin doesn't quickly become dry! With consistent use, it's also effective in reducing redness. I think using the entire line would be even more beneficial for acne scars and redness! It's moisturizing enough to use during seasonal changes, which is why I've purchased it again this time!
ConsWhen I used it during summer, for some reason it made my skin produce more oil. Since it's an essence toner, controlling the amount you use is crucial! Also, I mainly use it as an exfoliating toner, and 200ml feels a bit insufficient. I wish they would release a larger size!

ConsThose with very oily skin might find it a bit too rich in terms of oil content

It's great for skin-packing on areas with redness or pigmentation! Despite its fluid texture, it has a slight viscosity that allows for clean application without dripping when used as a skin pack. I appreciate that they didn't add artificial fragrances to mask the natural scent of the main ingredients (though this doesn't mean the scent itself is pleasant).
Cons[Somewhat Disappointing User Experience] Rather than feeling like it's absorbing, it gives a strong sensation of coating the skin's surface. It doesn't absorb quickly either, so those with oily skin might find it uncomfortable. The oily texture might make you worry about clogged pores or interfere with the absorption of subsequent skincare steps (you may need to wait longer between applications). While I enjoy using the onion gel cream, which suits my oily skin type, it's disappointing that the toner doesn't work as well for me (though dry skin types might love it). I don't think I'll reach for it often... (I plan to use the remainder as a substitute for water in modeling masks).

Hydrating 2. Water-based formula, so it's not sticky and doesn't interfere with subsequent skincare steps (though it's slightly thicker than pure water) 3. Almost fragrance-free (just a hint of natural ingredient scent) 4. No irritation 5. Seems like a toner that's suitable for daily use
Cons1. If you absolutely hate slippery textures, you might not like this (it feels somewhat slick, which some might perceive as oiliness, but it's more of a smooth glide) 2. The regular price is a bit steep (I bought it for 9900 won during a Hwahae sale) 3. It's supposed to be good for fading blemishes, but I didn't notice any significant improvement

Prone to small inflammations and pustules if not managed well. • Easily clogged pores: Even slight blockage leads to blemishes within hours, turning inflammatory if untreated. • Heat-sensitive: Not necessarily thin or weak skin, just prone to flushing. Heat exacerbates acne. • Highly reactive to hormones and environmental factors: Skin condition varies greatly with menstrual cycle. Sensitive to internal (fatigue) and external (temperature) changes. • Slow wound healing: Blemishes leave long-lasting marks. User Experience: Satisfied enough after one bottle to buy a second, though enthusiasm slightly waned. Still good enough to recommend to others. First bottle: Faded acne marks and reduced inflammation. Second bottle: Gradual increase in skin oil and sebum, leading to discontinued use. Texture: Slightly gliding texture. While not deeply hydrating, it provides solid moisture. Finishes clean without stickiness, leaving a pleasantly moist yet powdery feel. Pros: • Gentle: Non-irritating, suitable for sensitive skin. • Fades marks: Noticeably lightens blemish scars. • Moisturizing: Comfortable for layering or 'skin-packing', sufficiently hydrating on its own. • Packaging: Appreciate the screw-cap design. Personal preference, but it prevents excessive product dispensing.
ConsCons: • Limited soothing effect: Not particularly effective for calming redness or repairing skin barrier, making it less appealing for those with redness-prone skin. • Increased oiliness and sebum production: While the initial skin feel was good, extended use led to noticeable sebum growth. It maintained both deep and surface hydration, but disappointingly increased oil production. No worsening of existing blemishes or inflammations, but closed comedones increased in naturally oily areas.
TipTip: For oily or sebum-concerned skin, recommend spot-treating only necessary areas. For areas with blemish marks, try using it as a skin pack with cut cotton pads.

It's not just a lightweight toner, but feels like it contains essence with a certain weight and hydration. It's as if it creates a protective barrier on the skin when applied. It also had the effect of calming down my dead skin cells, which were quite noticeable before. I'd recommend this to people like me with combination dehydrated skin who have oily skin on the surface but dryness underneath.
ConsMy hands feel a bit sticky after application, but this sensation does fade after a while. Also, it has a somewhat rich texture, which would be great for winter, but might feel a bit heavy in summer. The quantity isn't particularly generous for the price either...
TipRecommended more for winter than summer! Using it with the Onion New Pair line enhances its effectiveness! I'd suggest this as a hydrating toner rather than an exfoliating one. It might be beneficial for those with pigmentation issues.
