The ingredients are good, and it absorbs quickly, penetrating deep into the skin. It doesn't leave any sticky residue and gets absorbed right away.
ConsThe biggest drawback is the container cap. It's extremely inconvenient to use and prone to leakage. Worst of all, the metal outer shell and cap seem to be fixed with adhesive, but the solution seeps between them, causing separation and making it slippery over time... I hope they improve this soon.
TipIt's much more convenient to transfer the product to a different container or replace the cap with a spray nozzle if possible.

After shaking well to mix the oil layer, I could apply it with a patting motion and it absorbed quickly without any sticky or slippery residue! But it wasn't drying or tightening...? I guess you could say it had a dewy, moisturized finish. On busy mornings, this product alone was enough. It has a subtle fragrance. You might think 'do I really need that?', but it's not an unpleasant scent, so it didn't bother me much! I'm not sure what the fragrance is - maybe a light floral...? The best part was that it's a vegan certified product! The packaging used paper cushioning to ship it, so there was no unnecessary plastic use, which I really appreciated as someone who's been trying to be more environmentally conscious and seeking out vegan products. Overall, I was very satisfied with this product! The packaging design is pretty, and it seems like a versatile product that would suit most skin types. Even with my sensitive skin, I didn't experience any irritation.
ConsThe packaging lid was a real disappointment...ㅜㅜ! It's not a twist-open lid, but a press-open one. If you don't press and shake the opening part with your finger, the toner will leak out and splatter everywhere... It's a shaking toner, so I think a twist-open lid would have been much better. Everything else is great, but the lid is the only downside.

It provides deep moisture without any dryness or tightness. The inclusion of truffle ingredients... what more needs to be said? Even though it's a water-based formula, it delivers deep hydration without any stickiness, so I'm very, very satisfied with it👍
ConsI'd recommend not using it in the summer for those with oily skin! I have a feeling it might feel a bit sticky, unfortunately ㅠㅠ
TipIf your skin condition is poor or too dry, try layering it on multiple times!!

Just for your reference. ⚡️Texture Absorbs smoothly and doesn't feel sticky. ⚡️Fragrance Personally, I really liked the scent. It's not strong, but subtle. ⚡️Moisturizing As a very dry-skinned person, this toner alone couldn't fully address the dryness, but I think it would be fine for those who aren't as dry-skinned.
Cons⚡️Packaging The packaging was personally extremely inconvenient for me. The oil layer and the main product can get mixed when shaken or opened, causing the contents to splatter, and the lid gets messy, requiring cleanup after use. ⚡️Ingredients Those with extremely sensitive skin should check the ingredients before using. There were some allergy-inducing ingredients, and sure enough, it caused itching + mild hives + small pimples...

I felt that the product was carefully made, as it has completed the vegan certification and the German derma test. 2. Despite having an oil layer, it applies smoothly without feeling sticky. 3. It provided a refreshing feel while effectively replenishing the inner moisture. 4. It did not cause any blemishes and felt gentle.
Cons1. It was somewhat inconvenient to have to shake it before use. 2. The scent is quite strong, so it may not suit everyone's preferences. 3. The toner did not dispense well from the bottle opening, which was inconvenient.
TipIt would be better to use it as a moisturizer rather than a toner!

I really love this product! I was worried that the oil layer might make it slippery or heavy, but not at all! It absorbs into the skin refreshingly without any stickiness!! Most importantly, it makes my skin feel so smooth and smooth as soon as I apply it! I think it's probably thanks to the oil layer, but when I applied it to my slightly rough skin, it immediately became smooth and my makeup went on really well!! Dry-skinned people might not be able to use this alone, but it does have a good amount of moisture!! Even though it has an oil layer, it won't be too heavy for oily skin types - the finish is nicely clean. I feel like it's worth the brand price, and I definitely plan to repurchase!
ConsNone!!! The only potential issue is that it might leak a bit if you're not careful with the lid management, but that should be manageable.
TipJust make sure to shake it well (not too vigorously or it might leak!) to properly mix the oil layer and water components, then scoop out a small amount onto your palm and gently pat it onto your face.

Sometimes when I use incompatible cosmetics, I get a lot of breakouts, but this one was completely fine. I really love very moisturizing products since I have dry skin, and this one is watery like a regular toner without any stickiness. It absorbs quickly, and although it has some oil mixed in, it's less drying than I expected. I think those of us with extremely dry skin would find this a good lightweight option for summer. A lot of reviews complained about the packaging being inconvenient, but I personally don't mind the twist-cap closure, so I didn't find it bothersome.
ConsThere's not really anything I'm disappointed with, but I was hoping it would be even more moisturizing since it contains oil. I was slightly let down by how watery it is, but it still manages to effectively address my dry skin issues, so I'm satisfied.
TipI like that it's so watery and lightweight - I can layer it multiple times without feeling heavy.

I'm even more inclined to purchase it than the mist. 💛 Texture This toner has an amazing absorption feel. It's the first time I've experienced such an absorptive texture and formulation. The absorption method is similar to the Sulwhasoo ampoule, and I think it's because of the oil in the toner. The absorption is incredibly fast, and it applies lightly without feeling sticky. For those who dislike stickiness, this is a product you'll be extremely satisfied with! 💛 Effects It's not a cleansing toner, but an absorbing toner. It's not for oil control or exfoliation. It's not a watery, glowy toner, but rather a moisturizing one that leaves a hydrated feel. Even though it contains oil, it didn't cause any trouble for my sensitive, acne-prone skin! It makes my complexion look brighter, and despite the lightweight texture, it doesn't leave a drying sensation, so I'd recommend it for dry skin! However, using this alone would be insufficient, so applying it with other skincare products will make your skin feel incredibly soft. Even though it contains oil, it's not heavy and doesn't cause breakouts, so I'd recommend it for oily skin as well. It's a great product to use from spring to fall. I have the intention to repurchase. 💛 Fragrance It's almost fragrance-free, which I really liked. The scent is not artificial.
Cons🥲 Product Packaging The pump dispenser makes it difficult to control the amount, and it comes out in small drips. Since the formula absorbs quickly, I have to apply it directly to my skin after dispensing it into my hand, but the packaging is very inconvenient for that. The cap also gets messy with toner residue, and I have to wipe it down after each use to keep it cleaner. 🥲 Oil Layer The oil layer separates quickly, so I have to shake it each time I use it to mix it back together, and even then, some of the liquid leaks out... It seems like the packaging is the main issue here, so urgent improvements are needed on the packaging design. 🥲
TipBe sure to mix the oil layer well before using!

Overall, I'd give it a 9 out of 10! ☘Texture and application: It's refreshing with minimal stickiness, and the moisture lasts a long time. ☘It works well as a makeup remover on cotton pads and as a cleansing balm when scooped with my hands. ☘The one-touch opening is convenient. ☘The scent is amazing!! Fresh rose fragrance,, ☘It's a vegan-certified product. 💜There's no particular calming effect, but it's gentle and didn't cause any breakouts. 💜Just one application makes my skin instantly hydrated, and the moisture lasts quite a long time. 💜Applying it a few times as a cleansing balm helps address any dryness. 💜It doesn't cause any pilling when used before makeup. The oil layer and water layer are separated, so you need to shake it well before use. That can be a bit annoying sometimes, but it's worth it! I didn't even think of using a toner for extra hydration, but 2-3 applications of this cleansing balm are enough for my dry skin! The scent is quite strong, but I personally love the rose fragrance. I'll definitely buy it again once I finish this one.
ConsIt's not recommended for extremely oily, extremely sensitive, or severely problematic skin types, as it does contain oils. But it should work well for most skin types! You need to shake it quite a bit to mix the oil layer, which can be a bit of a hassle at times,,ㅎ And the oil amount is a bit less compared to the toner, so you might end up with just toner left after a few uses..
TipIt works great as a makeup remover, but be sure to try it as a cleansing balm too!!

Please consider my skin type.🙇🏻♀️🙇🏻♀️ The spreadability is good. I thought it would be oily and heavy, but it's a water-based formula, not a runny serum. It gives a radiant finish immediately after application. It's not sticky at all? Even though it contains oil, my hair doesn't stick to it, and no dust or dirt clings to my skin. It's not refreshing, but it's moisturizing. The scent has a floral note, but it's not overpowering. For someone like me who usually dislikes floral fragrances, this is tolerable and can be used casually. The fragrance is subtle, not overbearing. Even after just applying the toner, my skin feels moisturized.???? I have severely dehydrated skin, with an oily surface, but for those who aren't as dry, this toner might be hydrating enough to use alone. In my case, after cleansing, my skin still feels very parched, and while this toner helps replenish some moisture, the effect doesn't last long. Dry skin types might find this toner a bit lacking if used alone. There was no stinging after application, but somehow, my skin and this product didn't get along. I experienced itchiness and small breakouts. For an extremely sensitive, puffer fish-like skin like mine, it's best to check the ingredients carefully before using. The moisturizing, spreadability, and subtle fragrance were all great, but this trial was a struggle, so I had to deduct a star. On the first day, I tried using it as a cleansing toner, but it worked better as a regular toner, with better absorption.
ConsThe floral scent, while not overpowering, is still a bit disappointing as I'm not a fan of floral fragrances (due to the added fragrance). The packaging is so inconvenient! It seems the manufacturer made a mistake. The oil layer separates, so you have to shake it about 5 times before opening the lid. Then, the contents just burst out!!! I got such a fright. Even when shaking it, I can feel it leaking a bit. And the product gets all over the lid too, requiring me to wipe it down multiple times. While trying to be careful about the spilling, I noticed the oil and toner keep separating.🤭 It's maddening...
TipA little tip, though it may not be much help - try using your usual cleansing toner first, and then apply this product by gently patting it onto your skin. You may notice that it feels more moisturizing and soothing compared to just using the toner alone.🤭
