Applying the ginseng scent to my skin gave me a sense that beneficial ingredients were being absorbed. After using it, I found it sinks into the skin gently, making it comfortable to use. The ginseng fragrance isn't artificial, but authentic, leaving a healthy impression rather than an odd scent. Skin benefits: While applying a moisturizing cream alone is good, using this toner before the cream seems to stabilize the skin. It gives me the feeling that I'm nourishing my skin, which is why I continue to use it regularly. Versatility: It's great that I can decant it into a travel bottle for on-the-go hydration and nourishment. The formula is versatile enough to use as a pack by soaking cotton pads, or as a mist, making it a triple threat! However, the scent might be polarizing for some users.
ConsScent: The strong ginseng smell is 100% noticeable, which might be divisive. I initially thought it was a subtle ginseng scent, but it's more like applying herbal medicine to your face, which can be off-putting. Skin feel: While it's moisturizing and nice, it might be more suitable for summer than winter. I'd especially recommend it for oily skin types rather than dry. As my skin is currently dry, using this alone doesn't provide enough hydration, so I'm using it in combination with other creams.

First off, I was thrilled that it's 100% red ginseng extract. It absorbs well, leaving the skin feeling hydrated, which was great for my dry skin!!!
ConsAs expected with 100% red ginseng, the scent is quite overwhelming. However, if it's good for my skin, I can manage to tolerate it!

The 150ml bottle releases a strong ginseng scent when opened. The design is clean and pretty - I think I chose well! 👍 Absorption: The way it applies and absorbs is decent by my standards! It feels like it sinks right into the skin when sprayed on. 👍 Hydration and Lasting Power: I was honestly surprised by how good the hydration and lasting power were, even when using this extract alone! It kept my skin quite moisturized without needing other products, and the hydration lingered slightly into the next day. This is coming from someone with combination dehydrated skin! 👍 Skin Feel: I was worried about potential irritation or blemishes from the extract, but there were none at all! Great!
Cons👎 Scent: It's not necessarily bad, but it could be polarizing... I was surprised by how strong the ginseng smell was when I first opened the cap. It felt like I was applying ginseng to my face, like I was turning into ginseng myself! Those sensitive to fragrances might not enjoy it. While I didn't experience any issues like blemishes, I thought those with super sensitive skin might need to be cautious. **A few hours after writing this review, I noticed something to add... Right before bed, when I applied this extract, I felt a burning sensation and my skin became flushed. Those with sensitive skin really need to be careful with this.
TipThis could work well as a mask or mist too, if you don't mind the occasional waft of ginseng! The volume is surprisingly generous, so you can use it liberally (the price is a great value too). The photo below shows how much is left after two weeks of use.

It absorbs instantly upon application, leaving no sticky residue on the hands. ✔️ Scent There's a hint of red ginseng scent, but it's barely noticeable once applied to the face. I'm usually quite sensitive to fragrances, but this one has an almost sweet aroma that makes me feel like my skin is getting healthier! (For reference, I don't consume red ginseng...) ✔️ Hydration I have extremely dry skin that cracks and peels terribly during seasonal changes. That's why having a solid skincare routine is crucial for me. This toner helps calm down dead skin cells and cracked skin! I was amazed at how well it performs despite its light texture.
ConsThere's nothing particularly bad, but those who dislike the scent of red ginseng might want to give it some thought!
TipLike many others, I sometimes soak cotton pads with this toner and use them as a mask. It leaves my skin very hydrated, and my makeup applies better the next day.

Regarding hydration, it absorbs and moisturizes well. If you layer it 2-3 times, it becomes even more hydrating. I have deep dryness, so one toner alone wasn't enough for me. The scent is similar to red ginseng sticks, which I like. It might be a love-or-hate fragrance, but it dissipates quickly. I've tried several single-ingredient toners from other brands, but their scents weren't great. This one has a pleasant, non-overwhelming fragrance. In terms of application, it's not sticky and absorbs immediately. It pairs well with both essence and water-based toners. Using the seven-skin method makes my skin more hydrated and seems to brighten my complexion. Applying it with cotton pads enhances the effects. Overall, the strong red ginseng scent gives a healthy feeling (though it fades quickly). Being a single-ingredient product, it's gentle and non-irritating. While the hydration from this toner alone might not be sufficient, it's great for layering or as a mask pack.
ConsAmong single-ingredient toners, its hydration isn't bad. However, in autumn and winter, you'll likely need to apply a rich moisturizer on top.
TipIt's even more hydrating and beneficial when used with the seven-skin method or as a mask pack.

I almost want to keep this a secret! First off, it's incredibly gentle! As someone with super sensitive skin, I'm always nervous trying new products. But this one feels so soothing the moment it touches your skin! The texture is slightly thicker than water, which helps it absorb well. Even those with sensitive skin can use it with confidence! Glowing skin?! I looked into the product info, and apparently the Chaebigonggan Red Ginseng Extract Toner is recommended for those concerned about dull and uneven complexion. I was skeptical at first, but when my mom went to exercise wearing only this, an acquaintance commented on how radiant and healthy her skin looked! If you're worried about a dull complexion, get this right away!
ConsLike other reviews mentioned, those who dislike the scent of red ginseng might find it off-putting. It's not overpowering... more of a subtle fragrance.
TipIt works best when applied right after washing your face, as soon as the skin is no longer wet.

Since it's made from 100% red ginseng extract, you can layer it generously without worry.
ConsThere's nothing particularly disappointing about it. However, if you're not a fan of red ginseng, you might find the scent off-putting.
TipThis toner is perfect for use as the first step after cleansing.
