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 it well to mix the oil layer, I applied it generously. It absorbed quickly without any sticky or slippery residue! However, it didn't leave my skin feeling dry or tight... Should I describe it as 'matte but moisturized'? On busy mornings, this product alone was sufficient! It has a subtle fragrance. You might think, 'Is it necessary?', but it's not unpleasant, so it didn't bother me much. I'm not sure what the scent is... a soft, floral scent perhaps? What I loved most was that it's a certified vegan product! I appreciated that they used paper cushioning for packaging, avoiding unnecessary plastic. As someone who's been focusing on vegan products due to environmental concerns, this was truly a great find for me. Overall, I was satisfied with this product! The packaging design is also pretty, making it enjoyable to use. It seems like it would suit various skin types well. Despite having sensitive skin, I experienced no irritation whatsoever.
ConsThe container lid was really disappointing... Instead of a screw-top, it's a push-to-open type. If you don't hold the opening with your finger while shaking, the toner leaks out and splashes everywhere. Given that it's a shake-before-use toner, I think a screw-top design would have been much better... Everything else is great, but the lid is the only drawback.

I loved that the oil layer was separate, so without shaking it felt light, and when shaken it provided a moisturizing effect. Being a vegan product, I felt reassured about the ingredients and have been using it, letting it absorb well into my skin.
ConsThe packaging was a bit inconvenient to use, which was disappointing.

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.Pros♡The Hwahae Testers Review♡ Here's an objective review after using the product for over a week. 1. Great for dry skin I have naturally atopic and dry skin. It feels comfortable to apply both before bed and under makeup, doesn't interfere with makeup application, and seems to penetrate deeply. (No worries about pilling) Usually, I'd need to apply an emulsion after toner to prevent tightness, but with this product alone, my skin doesn't feel tight. 2. Long-lasting hydration This product provides lasting moisture without excessive oiliness. Although I have dry skin, I don't like overly rich products. This one feels hydrating and smooth without being greasy, making it more comfortable to use. Over time, the surface may feel slightly dry, but there's a sense of retained moisture deep within the skin. (Highly recommended for those with dry skin who dislike stickiness but want long-lasting hydration) 3. Ingredients Dalba's cosmetic ingredients are so gentle, I feel reassured while applying them. (As an additional note, although I received this product as part of The Hwahae Testers program, I've decided to purchase it with my own money once I finish it. I've tried Dalba's sunscreen before, which I liked for its light, emulsion-like texture and hydrating properties. This experience has really confirmed the quality of Dalba products for me.)
ConsThe opening of the container makes it easy to spill product around the rim, so a dropper or pump-style packaging might be better. It often drips down the sides when applying. Other than that, I can't think of any particular drawbacks.

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.ProsI've heard so many good things about Dalba products, so I had high expectations when I started using this! 1. It's more hydrating than other toners I believe the toner is the most crucial step! It's the first skincare step, and it's important to get it right from the start. Other products sometimes evaporate(?) and make my skin feel drier after application, but I was surprised at how incredibly hydrating Dalba is. Maybe it's because it contains essence too, but it's really moisturizing!! 2. It absorbs well without sitting on the skin I especially liked that it doesn't slide around when applying the next steps, which can happen with other toners. It absorbs well but doesn't dry out the skin! 3. Ingredients While it's not completely free of potentially harmful ingredients, I think the formulation is good compared to other products! And above all, I love that Dalba is a vegan brand. 4. Scent It has a subtle floral fragrance that isn't off-putting. 5. Synergy effect when used with the ampoule!! Luckily, I was already using the ampoule before being selected for The Hwahae Testers, so I got to use the toner and ampoule together. Maybe it's just me, but I felt like it worked even better!
Cons1. Packaging I understand it's designed this way to shake before use, but a regular toner bottle would be more convenient. It splashes a bit every time it clicks, and since I'm not used to it, it's a bit inconvenient.
TipI feel like there's a synergy effect when used with other Dalba products! I'm planning to try their cream next. I'm 1000% going to repurchase this!

It's subtle, not overpowering. ⚡️Hydration As someone with extremely dry skin, this toner alone couldn't completely address my dryness. However, I think it would be suitable for those without severely dry skin.
Cons⚡️Packaging Personally, I find the container extremely inconvenient. You need to shake it to mix the oil layer, but when you open it, the contents splash and stick to the lid. It's a hassle to clean after each use... ⚡️Ingredients People with super sensitive skin should research the ingredients before use. I was worried about potential allergens, and sure enough, I experienced itching + mild hives + small blemishes...

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, seeing the oil layer separated made me want to shake it up and apply it right away. Even though I had toner and serum I was already using, I immediately opened this and applied it. The way it absorbs, its hydration power - need I say more? It's moderately rich without feeling heavy. As someone with dry skin, I wonder why I haven't used oils before. The fragrance is really lovely too. When I first heard 'truffle', I imagined the scent of the edible kind, but it wasn't that - it was even more fragrant and pleasant. I often get headaches from strong scents, but this one is subtle, which I appreciated even more.
ConsIt was a bit inconvenient that the layers would separate almost immediately if you didn't pour it out right after shaking. It felt like a time attack, kind of urgent. As you can see in the fourth photo, even though I poured it out right after shaking, you can still see the oil separating. Also, I found it more inconvenient because the dispensing part was narrower than expected, making it difficult to control the amount.

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.ProsUnlike traditional mists that you spray on, this product is applied by dispensing and absorbing, which definitely allows more product to be absorbed, leaving my skin feeling hydrated. After using this product, my oil and moisture balance improved, and those occasional tiny blemishes disappeared! It absorbs quickly, so I layered it 2-3 times. While it's great for tackling deep dryness, those with dry skin might want to layer it multiple times or add an essence or serum in the next step for better results. Also, this product is vegan, so I'd recommend it to those who prefer vegan cosmetics!
ConsIt's a shake-before-use type, but I noticed the mixture separates quite quickly. So if you need to apply multiple layers, it can be a bit annoying to close the lid and shake it again each time. Also, since it contains truffle extract, those who are sensitive to this ingredient should be cautious!
TipMake sure to layer it multiple times! It's great for combating deep dryness and balancing oil and moisture levels!

Using it with Sirucoat cotton pads as a toner, it absorbed well without sliding off, leaving my skin feeling firm and supple. Because of this, those with dry skin might find it a bit drying. The click-open cap is convenient, no need to twist it open. Plus, the plastic container is lightweight and worry-free if dropped.
ConsYou need to shake it to mix the oil layer, but it separates again quickly. You have to be quick to apply it to the cotton pad!
TipUsing it with Sirucoat cotton pads allows for gentle toning without irritating the skin.

Wow, this product is amazing! I was worried it might feel slippery or heavy because of the oil layer, but not at all! It absorbs well without any stickiness, leaving a fresh feeling!! The best part is how it instantly smooths out your skin texture! I think it's thanks to the oil layer - when I applied it to my slightly rough skin, it immediately became silky smooth and even helped my makeup go on better!! While it might not be enough on its own for those with very dry skin, it does provide good hydration!! Despite having an oil layer, it has a clean finish that even those with oily skin shouldn't shy away from. This product definitely lives up to the brand's reputation. I'm absolutely going to repurchase!
ConsThere are no real downsides!!! The only minor issue might be some leakage if you're not careful, but that can be avoided with proper lid management~ The scent is quite strong, so those with super sensitive skin might not appreciate it!
TipMake sure to shake well (but not too vigorously to avoid leaks!) to mix the oil and water layers properly. Then, pour a small amount into your palm and pat it gently onto your face.
