Skin Type: Dry, Sensitive Texture: Runny, watery consistency Scent: Not irritating, with a subtle fresh lemon fragrance Packaging: Some might find the bottle a bit childish, but I appreciate the practical 3D cap design that makes it easy to open and close. User Experience: As someone with dry skin, I find that watery formulas like this provide a bit of hydration. I always apply it generously using a cotton pad, making sure to saturate it well to avoid irritating my skin. After cleansing with this toner, I noticed my skin texture improved without any irritation. The formula absorbs well, leaving my skin feeling moisturized and helping to remove dead skin cells. I typically use exfoliating toners, but I really appreciate how this one gently removes dead skin cells without causing irritation. Throughout my use, I didn't experience any blemishes on my sensitive skin, so I'll definitely continue using it. I was also pleased to learn it's vegan, which gives me extra peace of mind while using it.
ConsThere's nothing particularly negative to mention. I'm quite satisfied with how it works for me.
TipFor best results, saturate a cotton pad generously with the product. This allows for gentler exfoliation and more effective skin texture improvement.

My skin feels incredibly refined. #Packaging The product bottle is absolutely adorable. #Scent The lemon fragrance is refreshingly pleasant. #Texture Its runny consistency prevents it from spilling out too quickly, which is great.
Cons#Potential Irritation? When used as the first step in skincare, I felt a slight tingling sensation. To avoid this, I first wipe my entire face once with my regular pad, then apply this toner on the same pad for a gentler application without irritation. #Seems like a small amount #The runny texture requires spreading when dispensing
TipAs mentioned above, I recommend first wiping your entire face once with your regular pad, then applying this toner on the same pad. This method allows for a gentler application without causing irritation.

Here's my take on this product: - Packaging: It comes in a plastic bottle with an adorably cute lemon-shaped cap. - Texture: It's not runny, but has a consistency similar to thick mucus (if you can imagine that!). - Scent: It smells like lemon sparkling water - not sweet, but a subtle, slightly tart lemon fragrance. (+) Hydration: My previous toner was quite watery, so I didn't rely on it much for moisture and focused more on later steps. This product, however, has a bit more substance to it. It seems to lock in hydration better without feeling heavy. In summer, I didn't even need additional moisturizer - no tightness at all! (+) Complexion (very subjective): After using it religiously for just three days, my mom actually commented, 'Your face looks brighter!' This is my first time using a lemon-based skincare product, and since then, I've been even more diligent with my application.
Cons(-) Absorption time: Due to its texture, it takes a bit longer to absorb compared to other toners.
Tip- Preventing stickiness: Since it takes longer to absorb than other toners, spend a little extra time to ensure it's fully absorbed. You might notice your skin looking a bit more radiant. I recommend patting it in with your hands rather than using a cotton pad.

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.ProsScent: As the bottle cap shape suggests, it has a subtle lemon fragrance (which I found pleasant, even though I'm sensitive to scents). Texture: Not as runny as water, but has a slightly thick, mucus-like consistency. Application: Absorbs well when patted in with hands, no need for cotton pads. Hydration: For dry skin, one application doesn't provide intense hydration. Either layer it multiple times or follow up with an emulsion or cream for longer-lasting moisture. Overall: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
ConsLongevity: The hydration doesn't seem to last very long, so I'd recommend it more for combination or oily skin rather than dry skin. Packaging: The small opening means you need to shake it several times to get enough product on a cotton pad. As someone with year-round dryness who often layers toners, I noticed this tends to pill when applied multiple times (possibly due to the AHA/BHA ingredients?).
TipPro tip: In my opinion, it's better suited for morning use rather than evening. I found it works well as an exfoliating toner when applied with a cotton pad to refine skin texture.

So normally, I finish my T-zone with just toner and ampoule, while adding cream to my U-zone to combat dryness. 🍋 Packaging: The lemon-shaped cap is adorably cute! It's a standard toner bottle otherwise. 🍋 Scent: It has a refreshing lemon fragrance! While those who prefer unscented products might find it divisive, I personally enjoy the zesty aroma. 🍋 Texture: It's not a completely watery toner like some others, but has a slight viscosity. When applied, it has a nice flow on the skin. 🍋 Application: It glides on smoothly. Unlike water-based toners that can drip and make the floor sticky, this one's consistency prevents that issue. 🍋 Hydration: It feels somewhat rich in texture. While it doesn't give that 100% hydration boost like aloe products, it provides a decent level of moisture. As my skin tends to be dehydrated, I applied multiple layers. 🍋 AHA/BHA ingredients: This is a crucial point - these ingredients don't particularly agree with my skin, causing some blemishes and redness. Usually, I use toners for hydration and apply multiple layers, but with this one, I just used it for a quick swipe due to its exfoliating properties.
ConsApart from the exfoliating ingredients not suiting my sensitive skin, I don't have any other complaints.
TipAs mentioned, AHA and BHA are useful for exfoliation. I typically use this kind of toner on my body after showering, before applying body emulsion. While my facial skin is quite sensitive and can get red from exfoliating toners, my body skin handles it well! After exfoliating with this toner, you can actually see the sebum coming out. It's particularly effective if you focus on problem areas! I had some back acne, so I used this toner daily after showering. After about 6 months, I noticed a significant improvement! If you're concerned about body blemishes or acne, give this a try! It's quite effective.

It smells exactly like fresh lemon juice. However, I personally don't enjoy the scent of lemon juice, so it wasn't my favorite. But it's not artificial, and the scent fades quickly after application, so that was fine! Texture: A runny consistency, not completely liquid but with a slight viscosity. You can do the 'doctor' method with it! Packaging: Adorable lemon-shaped cap that opens smoothly. Finish: Not greasy at all, leaves a refreshing feel which I loved! Application: Glides on smoothly with a 'slip-slip' sound. Absorbs quickly too!
ConsPersonally, I'm not a fan of lemon scents, and this one was a bit strong for my liking!

When absorbed into the skin as the first step of skincare, it creates a plump, adhering sensation. The best part about using this product is the lemon scent! It's not artificial at all, but smells like real lemon juice, which makes me feel so happy every time I do my skincare routine. After using it consistently for over a week, I've even been told my bare skin looks a bit brighter! I have sensitive, blemish-prone skin, but this hasn't caused any irritation. I'm really enjoying using it. The lemon-shaped bottle cap is also an adorably cute touch!
ConsThis might be better suited for dry or combination skin types rather than oily skin.

Finish: Immediately after application, the toner adheres well to the skin without any stickiness or greasiness.
ConsUnlike other toners, this one has a slightly viscous, thick texture that makes it difficult to pat in. For some reason, it gives a burning sensation when applied to the face. I'm not sure if it has any noticeable effect on removing dead skin cells. After a short while, my face starts to feel itchy (I think it's due to dryness). My skin used to be combination dehydrated, but it's become drier lately. After using this skincare product, my skin feels extremely dry.

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.ProsFirst off, I loved the meticulous packaging and the plastic cap finish instead of foil - it's a nice touch. As soon as I opened it, a burst of lemon scent hit me. Now, I'm not usually a fan of fragranced cosmetics, but this lemon scent was quite pleasant. Texture and Application: The Aha Bha Lemon Toner isn't your typical watery formula. It's more of a slightly runny gel with a slippery, mucilaginous feel. I found it works well whether you use a cotton pad or apply it directly with your hands - it spreads easily either way. After application, if you gently massage it in, you get this slight tacky feeling, like it's adhering to your skin before it fully absorbs. Absorption: Right after the scent, the absorption was what impressed me most. I have dry skin, so I prefer stickier textures over watery ones when it comes to toners. This one clings to the skin nicely, and you can really feel it sinking in. Hydration: Given its sticky texture rather than a water-based one, the hydration power naturally felt superior to other toners I've tried. This morning, I was in a rush and only used this toner - wiped my face with it on a cotton pad, then patted a few drops directly onto my skin. I accidentally skipped my cream and emulsion, but surprisingly, even after being out for a while, my skin doesn't feel tight at all. I'm quite impressed!
ConsI liked both the scent and texture, and I didn't experience any blemishes, which I'm prone to when skincare doesn't agree with me. Honestly, I'm completely satisfied and don't have any complaints.

Scent I absolutely loved that it has a genuine lemon fragrance, not an artificial one. It feels like I'm actually eating a lemon! The scent was so refreshing, it really lifted my mood. 2. Exfoliation I usually use the Dokdo Toner as my exfoliating toner, but after using this product at night following my exfoliating toner routine, I woke up to noticeably smoother skin than usual. I also felt like my complexion looked a bit clearer.
Cons1. Texture I was expecting an exfoliating toner to have a water-like consistency, so I was surprised to see it had a mucus-like texture when I first opened it. When applying it with a cotton pad for exfoliation, it seems to use up more product than a typical watery toner. 2. Absorption For me, it felt like it took a while to absorb. As someone with deep dryness, I usually prefer to layer multiple applications of water-based products before sealing it all in with a moisturizer. However, this product absorbed too slowly for effective layering, and left my skin feeling a bit dry. This seems more suitable for summer rather than the current transitional season.
TipI think it would be great to keep this in the fridge and use it when it's cold, especially in summer. It could be really beneficial for pores too.
