I bought this because I've been getting blemishes frequently lately. It absorbs quickly and has almost no scent. When I soak a cotton pad and apply it, it seems to calm my skin down fast. My blemishes have been under control for a while now.
Cons
The watery consistency means it runs off quickly. It's better to put it in a spray bottle and use it like a mist!

I used to always use pads before applying makeup, but it seemed to make my skin worse. When I switched to using this toner instead, it's been amazing! It absorbs quickly and feels light on the skin, giving a soothing sensation.
Cons
It's a bit disappointing that the toner doesn't really help with dryness.

Strengthens skin barrier This toner helps fortify your skin's natural barrier. It hydrates while forming a protective shield, safeguarding your skin from external stressors. This is particularly beneficial for combination dehydrated skin, where barrier reinforcement is crucial. Gentle and non-irritating Formulated with a mild texture that's suitable even for super sensitive skin. It's gentle enough to use when your skin is feeling sensitive or experiencing blemishes. After application, your skin feels soothed and comfortable. Deep hydration Provides ample hydration, keeping your skin moisturized without feeling dry. Post-application, your skin maintains its moisture without any deep dryness, offering long-lasting hydration. Balances oil production Ideal for combination dehydrated skin, this product regulates excess sebum without drying out your skin. It works hard to balance oil and moisture, leaving your complexion feeling refreshed.
Cons
Mixed reactions to fragrance While the scent is subtle, those with fragrance sensitivities might find it slightly uncomfortable. Though not overpowering, users who are particularly sensitive to scents may find it a bit bothersome. May not suffice for extremely dry skin While the hydration is decent, it might not be enough for those with extremely parched skin. Additional moisturizing steps may be necessary in very dry environments. Somewhat slow absorption The toner may take a bit of time to fully absorb into the skin. This slower absorption rate might be inconvenient for those seeking instant effects.

Using it as a mask pack, I could visibly see my skin calming down! I used to use pads, but there wasn't enough product. I recommend generously soaking a cotton pad with the toner instead.
Cons
It seems you need to use it consistently to see results. If you stop because it's bothersome, it feels like you're back to square one.

Tackles deep dryness, no blemishes even for sensitive skin, great for dry skin types, absorbs without stickiness, generous amount of product
Cons
No major drawbacks, just that the bottle is quite large so it dispenses a bit too much toner at first

I bought this after seeing an ad, and it's actually not bad at all. I've stocked up on the 500ml large size and keep using it. It's just a solid, reliable product.
Cons
The advertising is a bit over the top. They claim it destroys acne-causing bacteria and that using this alone will make all your blemishes disappear, leaving you with perfect skin. At first, I thought it might be working, but the more I used it, the less effective it seemed. Now it just feels like an ordinary toner.

As someone with oily skin, finding the perfect skincare item wasn't easy, but the moment I tried this toner, I knew it was 'the one'! Specially formulated for sebum control, you can really feel the reduction in oil after use. I used to have extremely oily skin that would shine all day, but since using this product, my excess sebum has noticeably decreased. I highly recommend this for acne-prone skin or students with active oil production! It truly makes your skin feel more comfortable, and I've noticed fewer blemishes. Initially, I used it as an exfoliating toner, but now I prefer using it as an absorbing toner. Rather than wiping with a cotton pad, I gently pat it into my skin with my hands, which seems to maintain a better oil balance throughout the day. The texture is light and refreshing, making it suitable for use in any season. There's hardly any alcohol scent or irritation, so it should work well for sensitive skin too. It leaves no sticky residue, allowing for easy absorption of subsequent products, making it a versatile addition to any routine. The generous amount allows for liberal use, and it's reasonably priced for daily use. Once you try it, you'll understand why it's considered the 'holy grail' of sebum-controlling toners!
Cons
None really... except maybe that it's not suitable for dry skin? After all, it's a sebum-controlling toner designed to combat excess oil, so don't expect intense hydration.

It was gentle and absorbed quickly. There were no additional breakouts or reactions.
Cons
Considering the volume, it was quite expensive, but it seemed to have no effect at all. It felt like just another overhyped product. I couldn't notice any acne calming, sebum control, or hydration benefits. It was like applying water to my skin...

I love how gentle, moisturizing, and clean-finishing this product is. I'm so satisfied that I'm definitely considering repurchasing it.
Cons
I'm still using it, and even as I'm about to finish the whole bottle, I haven't found anything to complain about.

It's moisturizing and feels clean. I love how quickly it absorbs when I pat it in with my hands. Even though I have oily skin, my face tends to feel dry right after washing. But when I apply this product, that tight feeling disappears instantly! It's great!
Cons
I guess there's no helping it with the toner. It's a bit disappointing that it leaks slightly to the side every time I use it.
