After applying, the skin felt clean and refreshed, not sticky at all. It spread on smoothly and absorbed well, making it easy to apply without any issues.
ConsThe daily toner was quite comfortable to apply, and I didn't find any particular shortcomings.

It effectively improves skin texture and provides light hydration, which is a great combination. The absorption is very quick and it doesn't feel sticky, which I really appreciate. The scent is almost undetectable, which is perfect. The ingredients are very clean and gentle, suitable even for sensitive skin. Moreover, it's a vegan product, which is a big plus. The packaging design is excellent - it has a premium feel when you take it out, and the rarity of the Kombucha ingredient makes it stand out.
ConsIt's a shame, but it's too difficult to write 20 characters. ㅠㅠ
TipIn my personal opinion, it is recommended to use makeup products at night rather than in the morning for better absorption. If you plan to use them in the morning, instead of applying this and that, it would be better to lightly apply a thin, watery lotion or cream to create a moisture barrier, and then apply foundation, as this can address skin texture, moisture, and hydration all at once. Furthermore, using cotton pads to wipe the skin is quite inefficient, so in the case of such ampoule toners, it is more cost-effective to apply them directly for better absorption.

The non-sticky texture allows for easy use in multi-step skincare routines. • Large Volume : The generous volume allows for long-term use, and the ample amount spreads evenly across the skin for convenient application.
Cons•Price Range : While the volume is substantial, the relatively high price point may be a burden for some. •Overly Thin Texture : The thin formula can sometimes be too runny, making it challenging to apply. •Fragrance Preference : The natural scent inherent to vegan products may not appeal to those sensitive to fragrances.
Tip•Double Layering : To compensate for the thin texture, it's better to apply the product in multiple layers rather than a single heavy application, as this can improve absorption. •Refrigerated Storage : Storing the product in the refrigerator can provide a refreshing sensation and maximize the soothing effects on the skin.

At first, I felt like my skin tone became brighter. It seems good to use in the summer. It's good that it doesn't feel sticky.
ConsI used it morning and evening for a week, but I had breakouts, so I stopped using it. It seems it doesn't suit me. That's a pity.
TipIf you're not sensitive, it would be good to apply it on a cotton pad and use it like a pack.

I was pleased with the mild ingredients and slightly acidic toner. Some toners didn't resolve the dryness after application, but this product did, which I appreciated.
ConsThe price was disappointing. Popular toners are generally around 10,000 won, but this product was in the 20,000 won range. As it was my first time using the kombu ingredient, I noticed some minor breakouts after using it for over a week. It's difficult to say for certain if the kombu was the cause, but since I only changed the toner in my existing routine, the breakouts seem to be related to the kombu ingredient.

I was pleased that the toner could replenish the nutrients. Before using, I thought the contents would be a runny skin-like texture, but when I actually used it, it was similar to a water-based skin. It's not completely as light as water, but has a very slight viscosity. However, there's no stickiness. It applies well. It absorbs into the skin moisturizing and doesn't dry out. Since I have an oily skin type, layering it multiple times to charge my skin with moisture, I didn't particularly feel any dryness. The fragrance is also not bothersome, and I used it comfortably. I think it would be used well even in the summer without any stickiness. But it would be better to use it when my skin gets dry during the seasonal changes.
ConsThe small volume is a bit pricey.. I couldn't feel much change even after using it for a few days, but just the fact that my skin didn't dry out is already great.
TipApply by layering it multiple times

Just as I had imagined, it is fragrance-free, light, and not sticky. Even when I apply it two or three times, it doesn't feel stuffy, but rather absorbs very well. Even after a few hours, the glow remains and it is very moisturizing. It's a product I really want to use again in my routine. When I apply it to my hand and some time passes, the moisture and glow are incredible~ There are no particular troubles, so I plan to use it consistently. Highly recommended!
ConsIt's so good that there's hardly any downside to it, so I strongly recommend it.
TipI apply it morning and night, and my skin glows so beautifully~!! When my skin feels hot and irritated, I pat it on and it calms and feels great~

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.ProsAfter using the <Kaine: Kombu Balancing Ampoule Toner> with a watery, viscous texture similar to an ampoule+toner for nearly 2 weeks, I feel that it is a gentle toner that even sensitive skin can use with confidence. The application was smooth, absorbing into the skin without any stickiness while keeping it moisturized. Looking at the ingredients, it seems to be composed of components that can help with skin hydration, which seems especially beneficial for this time of the year. I've been using it as a toner pack, applying it every other night for about 20 minutes before bed. In the morning, I could feel the skin's moisture instead of an oily shine. The toner pack also helped quickly soothe any hormonal blemishes that popped up. I usually minimize my skincare routine and give my skin a break when dealing with trouble areas, but using this ampoule toner after double cleansing helped clear up the blemishes and refine my skin texture before long. An added bonus was the brighter complexion! I'm very satisfied with its soothing effects and moisturizing power.
ConsThere are no particularly disappointing aspects. If I had to nitpick, the toner is on the thinner side, so it takes a bit of time to fully saturate a cotton pad. The toner opening could be slightly wider for more convenient application.
TipI've been reusing an empty sheet mask container as a toner pack container after disinfecting it with alcohol. Soaking a large 'mask pack cotton pad' thoroughly with the ampoule toner and leaving it on for 20 minutes helps the moisture last much longer.

It's not a sticky mucus formula or a water toner - it has a non-burdensome texture. The fragrance seems to be unscented. I didn't feel any irritation or stimulation - it's a mild toner.
ConsTo be honest, there are a lot of cost-effective products these days, so the price might be a bit disappointing.
TipUsing it as a soothing toner in the morning would make it nicely hydrating.

When I applied it twice before makeup, my makeup went on very smoothly, and I didn't notice much difference compared to the Hwahae Trial Reviewer toner. I had thought the essence toner would have a sticky texture, but it's actually a watery formula like other toners. It's not exceptionally good or bad, but just a fairly average product.
ConsWhile it is hydrating and absorbs well, the sense of moisture on my skin is not very pronounced. I don't feel my skin is dry, but just moderately hydrated. So I think the product is just a bit too average and unremarkable.
