This toner has almost no viscosity, so it feels like a water-based toner. That's why it absorbs so quickly as soon as you apply it to your face! After absorption, there's a slight stickiness, but it's not too much, and your skin becomes plump enough for your makeup to apply well. And each time you layer it, the feel changes a bit. When you first apply it, there's almost no stickiness and it's refreshing, but there's still a slight tightness and dryness. When you do the second layer, as it absorbs, your skin becomes plump~, and your makeup applies really well! This is when I start to feel the moisturizing effect. With the third layer, the moisturizing effect becomes more pronounced. At this point, there's almost no tightness, and there's just a tiny bit of oiliness left on the surface. Overall, it's refreshing and absorbs quickly, so it's good to use on days like these.
Cons
Since it's a water-based toner, it didn't completely resolve the dryness in one go, and the price is really steep... It's not like they have frequent discounts, and when you layer it multiple times, you end up using it up faster than other products, but the price is too high...
Tip
1. When using one layer: The ultra-pure ingredients are okay! But for dry and dehydrated skin types, the moisturizing will be woefully insufficient. 2. When using two layers: For dehydrated skin types, it's suitable for makeup in the summer. Dry skin types will still feel some dryness. 3. When using three layers: A more pronounced moisturizing effect is felt (for dehydrated skin types). Dry skin types will start to feel some improvement at this point. Conclusion: Recommended for oily or dehydrated skin types. But dry skin types may find it too drying.

It was good because the texture was smooth, non-sticky, and absorbed quickly. For dry areas, applying it multiple times helped replenish moisture well. It's lightweight, so it's easy to apply multiple layers.
Cons
It's very lightweight, so even for areas that aren't very dry, one application isn't enough.
Tip
I recommend applying it in small amounts multiple times.

The scent was really good, so I bought it and it was fine. I used it for 3-4 days, and from the day after using it, my troubled skin got better!! I can't say for sure that it was because of this product since I changed all my other products, but I believe it got better because everything is good.
Cons
There's a bit of foaming... It feels a little sticky and dry. I'm not sure if it's because of my skin, but some flakiness came up, other than that it's fine.

There's no breakout or anything bad on my face, and it's not bad. I've been using it daily.
Cons
The scent may be divisive, but you get used to it over time.

It's fine to just use it as a blotting paper, or you can dab it on with a cotton pad. It's refreshing, applies well, and leaves your skin feeling moisturized and fresh without any stickiness.
Cons
The price is way too expensive!!! And since it's a water-based formula, it ends up getting used up too quickly.
Tip
Dabbing it on with a cotton pad also helps soothe any redness and inflammation.

The product was a water-based formula that felt refreshing to use, allowing me to cleanse my skin without any burden. There were no breakouts. It had a light skin feel.
Cons
Hmm, there are many alternative skin toners that can replace this one at this price range... It's a shame that it lacks distinctive features.
Tip
I used it by cleansing once and then gently patting it in with my hands to help it absorb.

It feels refreshing and good when applied. It helps lower the heat on the face and provides a cooling sensation, so the ampoules or creams applied after the toner seem to be absorbed well!
Cons
I haven't found any major drawbacks yet, but those with extremely dry skin may feel it is not moisturizing enough.
Tip
When used as a face pack, the cooling sensation seems to last longer :)

This is a lightweight toner that can be used in the summer. It absorbs into the skin without any sticky residue. Layering it a couple of times helps with hydration and soothing. It works well as a cleansing toner and as a cotton pad pack. I've been applying it consistently to my neck, and my skin feels more plump and well-moisturized.
Cons
The fragrance doesn't seem to be my preference. It has a faint sweaty smell to it. It's not too strong, and you have to really stick your nose in to detect it, so I don't consider it a major downside compared to the product's performance.

The design is sophisticated and beautiful. It has a refreshing scent and is not sticky, which I like.
Cons
If you spray it on your hand before applying, it foams up. It's not particularly sticky, but it just feels a bit unpleasant :)

Please, my fellow dry, sensitive, and combination skin types Please, use this, it's really amazing I love basil so much, I especially love basil pesto And I love the basil aroma so much So when I heard this has basil in it, I wondered 'Will I get the basil scent on my skin?' and tried it out But no, there's no basil scent haha But the good thing is Since I have dry, sensitive skin, If I don't put anything on after washing, my skin feels so dry and cracked And then later in the day, Oily shine just comes up on my nose and between my brows But when I use this, that's improved 1. Even just using the toner alone, my severely dry skin is improved 2. The oily shine that used to come up over time has decreased 3. My skin is quite sensitive, and anything I put on makes my face sting, but this doesn't I really love it so much I'm scared it might get discontinued Because it's not that well-known ㅜㅜ Since it's pH-balanced, I really love it so much, boo hoo
Cons
The price is over 20,000 won for one bottle of toner I'm in a very poor financial situation, So I can't afford expensive cosmetics Ah, if the price was just a little cheaper, even in the late 10,000s, that would have been great
Tip
After cleansing, I want to feel refreshed today, so just use this It can also be used as a makeup remover But the best way to use it is to just scoop some into your hands and pat it on
