Pros
✔️ The texture is not too watery and does not drip heavily ✔️ After application, there is no sticky feeling and it absorbs quickly, leaving the skin feeling moisturized ✔️ My skin is usually very sensitive in the evenings after cleansing, but this toner has a calming effect ✔️ It is not irritating The toner I used before was just average, and I couldn't really tell the difference whether I used it or not. But this toner definitely has a noticeable calming effect after application, which I really like.
Cons
✔️ The scent could be a bit more subtle, but it's just a minor disappointment, I didn't notice anything else problematic.

Pros
Hwahae Trial Reviewer Review! • As I entered my mid-20s, I started to look at the ingredients first when buying cosmetics. In that regard, I really liked that this vegan cosmetic product did not contain any harmful ingredients. • The packaging was hygienic, and the product dispensed well. It had a slight viscosity, so it didn't flow like water, which made it easy to apply with my hands. • I used to use it as a sheet mask by soaking a cotton pad, but lately I've just been applying it directly with my hands. It absorbs nicely and feels good to use.
Cons
• Hmm... the herbal scent? Personally, I prefer this herbal scent over typical cosmetic fragrances, but the scent is quite strong, so those who dislike herbal smells may not like it. Personally, I prefer fragrance-free cosmetics as I feel like added fragrances mean added harmful ingredients. • It's only been a week since I started using it, so I haven't noticed any dramatic improvements in my skin yet. But it hasn't caused any breakouts either, so it seems to be a decent toner to use.
Tip
• Personally, I feel like applying it directly with my hands absorbs better than using it as a sheet mask. • The ingredients are good, and I'm happy it's a vegan product. The usage experience wasn't bad either! I stumbled upon this brand through the Hwahae Trial Reviewers, and I think I'll keep an eye on it going forward.

Pros
1. When they said it was vegan, I thought it would have good ingredients, and there was a healthy feeling to it even before using it. If it suits my skin well, I think it wouldn't be bad to use it consistently. 2. After cleansing, I always do cleansing oil. This product is not too thin, nor too thick - it's just about the right consistency. It doesn't drip down, which is good. 3. As we move into the season when we need more moisture, this seems to suit well. If the formula is too thin, I'd just use it as a cleansing oil, but this product has good absorbency while also functioning as a cleansing oil. You could even use it as a moisturizing toner without it being just a cleansing oil. 4. After applying, my skin feels deeply moisturized. It doesn't sit on the surface of my skin. There's no tightness either. 5. If someone has a skin type that can handle most cosmetics, this would make a good gift. It looks premium and being a vegan cosmetic adds value as a gift.
Cons
1. The scent is a bit... it's kind of like ginseng, or maybe some herbal medicine smell. Since it's a vegan product, I guess that's why, but it's a scent I'm still getting used to, even though it's not entirely unpleasant. 2. I have oily T-zone skin, and when I apply it at night and sleep, my oil production is a bit higher the next morning. So I think it would be better for normal to dry skin types, rather than very oily skin. 3. The glass packaging makes it quite heavy. I'd be worried about dropping it and it breaking - I'd rather not even imagine that. A lightweight plastic packaging would be better.
Tip
Since I've been wearing masks continuously, I've had a lot of breakouts around my cheeks and chin. I tried soaking a cotton pad with the product, keeping it in the fridge for 15-20 minutes, and using it like a face mask. It made my skin feel more firm and toned. Occasionally using it this way seems like a good idea.

Pros
✔️ Absorbs deeply and moisturizes As someone with dry skin, the level of moisture is just right for me! I think it would be great to use even in the winter. ✔️ Thick and creamy texture Even though it's a cleansing toner, it has a thick and creamy texture. It doesn't flow like a watery toner, and when applied to a cotton pad, it doesn't spread out quickly but rather clumps together as it gets absorbed, which seems to indicate a very thick and creamy consistency.
Cons
✔️ Strong fragrance It has a similar scent to traditional Korean herbal medicine, which may be divisive. If you don't mind the fragrance, it should be fine.

Pros
The weather is getting cooler, but winter, the worst season for me, is approaching, and I've already started to feel the dryness, so skincare products have become more important. ▶️First of all, it's very moisturizing!! The formula is not as runny as water, but when applied with a cotton pad, my face doesn't feel tight. ▶️I don't really get any breakouts. The existing blemishes don't disappear, but they don't reappear either. I'm relieved about that.
Cons
To be honest, I don't really care about other things, but the smell is really unbearable. I don't know if I'm just sensitive to fragrances, but I can hardly breathe after applying it. I can only start breathing normally again after applying other products on top of it. The smell makes me not want to use it anymore.

Pros
It's incredibly moisturizing! I apply this in the morning before putting on sunscreen when I do my makeup. It's that moisturizing and doesn't feel tight at all. The product is almost watery, and there's no stickiness after application. The bottle design with the toner is sleek and pretty, and the cap has a dispenser that prevents it from pouring out too much, which I really liked. I don't usually have a lot of trouble with breakouts, but if a product is too rich or oily, I tend to get clogged pores and blemishes. But after using this consistently, I didn't experience any new breakouts. My skin also doesn't seem to be flaking or peeling as much after makeup application.
Cons
The scent is a bit disappointing. It has a kombucha-like aroma, and every time I dispense it, the smell is quite strong. I'm not particularly sensitive, so it doesn't bother me too much, but those who are more sensitive to scents might find it irritating. However, the smell doesn't linger, and once you've patted it in and it's absorbed, the fragrance goes away!
Tip
I normally use a skin prescription from a dermatologist, which I apply at night. I used the kombucha product in the mornings. The amount is quite generous, so I even tried using it as a mask, but the formula isn't super saturating like a typical mask. Instead, I just put it in the fridge to keep it cool and used it as a toner in the mornings.

Pros
Hello, this is Shine, who aims for honest reviews :) After using the Hwahae Trial Reviewer, Heubleoom Kombucha Toner, I would like to share my honest impressions. 1. Product Design: It has a neat, chubby bottle, not a long and slender one, so it seems good to put in a bag and carry around. 2. Texture: Unlike regular toners that are quite watery, this one has a slightly thicker consistency. When I dispense it onto my palm, it doesn't drip down, but rather has a slightly stretchy, essence-like feel. 3. Application: The best part is that it doesn't run down. It feels very gentle and non-irritating. It doesn't get absorbed all at once, which I think is due to the lack of evaporating ethanol ingredients. 4. Effectiveness: While I'm not sure if it helps with oil control since it's a tea-based product, the soft yet slightly exfoliating texture made me realize that it must be working on removing dead skin cells. This is based on my experience of using various products.
Cons
A fatal flaw... the fragrance is too unpleasant. Just like how even the most nutritious food becomes useless if no one wants to eat it, beauty products are also ineffective if no one wants to use them. I feel the fragrance is too strong, and it really needs to be improved. As soon as I applied it to my face, I was hit by a familiar scent that seemed to be a mix of the kombucha's aroma and an earthy, musty smell. It was quite unpleasant and pungent. Fragrances are not beneficial ingredients for the skin, so why include them? I'm always curious about cosmetic brands that insist on adding fragrances. Even if the fragrance is nice, if it's too strong, it's not ideal. As a user, I also start to doubt how gentle the product really is when I have to endure such a strong scent. Given the brand's focus on "vegan cosmetics," it would have been better to either make it fragrance-free or use a very light tea-based scent that represents the kombucha. The product itself seemed fine when I tried it, but the fragrance really ruins the experience. It's always disappointing when a good product is marred by an unpleasant scent.
Tip
It does have a slightly thicker consistency, so it may not be the best for use as a toner. However, I found that applying it with a thin cotton pad, like a sheet mask, and then wiping it off works really well. This method allows you to evenly distribute the product across the face and easily remove it.

Pros
1. Design - The product packaging and overall design were clean, capturing the essence of vegan cosmetics! The design is so pleasing that just having it on my vanity makes it feel luxurious.👍🏻 2. Texture - As shown in the photo, the texture is almost like a water toner, but not too runny. It's not quite a skin pack, so it might be a bit of a waste to use it that way, but as mentioned in the description, it's the perfect texture for using as a cleansing toner.😁 3. Spreadability - True to its toner nature, it absorbs into the skin quickly and smoothly with minimal stickiness. However, there is a slight tackiness that lingers, but this shouldn't be an issue for those who aren't overly sensitive to that. 4. Hydration - As someone with dry skin, I usually find that my skin dries out quickly after using a cleansing toner, but this one sinks in right away, keeping my skin supple and dewy for a long time! It's a great lightweight option to use in the morning.😊
Cons
The appeal of vegan cosmetics is their clean, minimalist nature, so I'm not sure why an aroma was added... 🙁 As someone with sensitive skin, I felt a bit apprehensive about using it at first. However, the fragrance itself isn't overpowering or unpleasant - it has a fresh, natural scent. But for those with very sensitive skin, I wish the fragrance had been omitted. Apart from that, I don't have any other complaints!
Tip
As described, this toner is perfect for using as a cleansing toner.👍🏻 It's lightweight enough to use on its own in the morning, absorbing quickly and leaving my skin nicely hydrated.
