I'm a skincare nomad, and while toners can sometimes feel like plain water, the right one can definitely provide hydration. This toner's main ingredient is ginseng water, which raised both my expectations and concerns. Scent-wise, I was worried about a strong ginseng smell, but it's not bothersome at all - just a slight herbal scent that doesn't linger like perfume. The texture isn't watery - it has a slight viscosity, though not quite an essence. When applying, it leaves a slightly tacky (but not sticky) feeling. It's noticeably different from water-based toners. Don't worry about the visible particles - they don't cause any irritation at all.
ConsThe price-to-volume ratio is a concern. While I understand it's ginseng water rather than regular purified water, it still feels like it's running out too quickly. I use it for hydration and improving skin texture rather than as an exfoliating toner. Those looking for exfoliation might want to think twice.
TipLayering the toner twice, followed by essence and cream, helps soothe some of that seasonal dryness.

First off, I have combination dehydrated skin. While my skin isn't particularly sensitive, I'm extremely sensitive to fragrances. However, I really appreciated that this product has a very subtle scent. There's a hint of ginseng, but it's so faint that it's practically unscented. I usually apply toner with my hands instead of cotton pads to avoid lint, and when I did so, the ginseng leaves dissolved well. The overall absorption is excellent, there's no stickiness, and the hydration level is just right. I also liked the product packaging. Since I don't use pads, I'm not a fan of containers that pour out too much product. This one has a narrow opening, making it easy to control the amount. I didn't experience any blemishes or adverse reactions while using it. It's a solid, no-frills product that's easy to use. I definitely recommend it.
ConsThere's not really anything to complain about, but if I had to nitpick, I'd say it could be slightly more hydrating. If you're looking for a super moisturizing toner, you might find this one a bit lacking in that department.

While it appeared quite viscous in the bottle, I was surprised at how quickly it absorbed as I watched the leaves dissolve while rolling it on my face. It's a very versatile product, with almost no artificial or raw ingredient scent detectable.
ConsAmong skincare products, toner is used in the largest quantity and should be the first step. However, this doesn't have an easy-to-open snap lid or a convenient pump, so I tend to reach for products with similar effectiveness but easier application methods.
TipI found it works well when transferred to a pump-style toner bottle.

Despite the ginseng leaves floating, amazingly they're all absorbed in no time •Pros: Made with ginseng water, but the ginseng scent isn't overpowering, so it's likely to suit most people. Despite its runny texture, it absorbs well into cotton pads, making it great for skin pack use Contains leaves but doesn't cause irritation •Recommended skin types: Great for oily or blemish-prone skin due to its good absorption and soothing effects
ConsNot recommended for dry skin - may feel dehydrating - less moisturizing after absorption (absorbs too well) Not suitable for those who don't react well to fermented ingredients
TipGreat for using as a skin pack to soothe facial redness

I've been using this product daily since receiving it, and here are my thoughts. Application: Despite the toner containing active ingredients, I was pleasantly surprised that it didn't feel heavy on my skin. It absorbs well, leaving my face feeling soft without any residue. The fragrance is inoffensive and should suit most users. Overall, I find this toner highly satisfactory.
ConsI don't have any particular complaints. It hasn't caused any blemishes, so I'm continuing to use it.

Improved skin texture I immediately noticed my skin texture improving! And this was just from letting it absorb, not even using it as part of a cleanse-tone routine! After just 2-3 uses, I saw a noticeable improvement in my skin texture. 2. Scent While it's close to being fragrance-free, there's a subtle, natural leafy scent. It's not artificial, which made me feel confident using it. 3. User experience Honestly, it exceeded my expectations. Before receiving the product, I was worried about potential irritation from undissolved ingredients during absorption. But there's no need for concern at all. It melts well with body heat and caused zero irritation.
ConsTo be honest, I couldn't find any faults. Just the fact that there's nothing to criticize makes this toner more than halfway there.
TipI especially recommend this to those who only use exfoliating toners! Constantly wiping with cotton pads can actually be irritating, so it would be great to occasionally use this product for absorption instead.

ConsOn days when my skin isn't at its best, I feel like it doesn't quite agree with me, possibly due to its fermented ingredients. This is likely because I have super sensitive skin, but it's generally gentle and works well for me under normal circumstances.

Usually, these watery formulas seem to absorb well at first but leave a sticky residue. I love that it doesn't leave any residue on my hands either! At first, you see little leaf particles, but as you apply it, true to its name, they melt away without a trace. There's a subtle ginseng scent, but it's not overpowering at all, which I found quite pleasant!
ConsThe skin feels is so amazing that I've used up the entire bottle and will likely switch from my current product to this one. If I find any drawbacks after finishing the whole bottle, I'll come back to update my review!

It felt very comfortable. ➡️Texture: Runny consistency It has great absorption, spreads easily on the skin, and after application, my skin feels really firm and supple. I think it would work well as a makeup base too! ➡️Scent: Subtle, almost unscented fragrance The scent isn't artificial or irritating at all.

ConsThere weren't really any downsides. The amount might feel a bit small, but I think that's because of the high-quality ingredients used.

The formula absorbs well without feeling sticky! I thought it might be a bit sticky due to its slightly runny texture, but it's surprisingly lightweight. Even those with oily skin can use it without worry! The ingredients are also excellent! I'm usually very sensitive to fragrances, but this toner doesn't have an artificial scent, making it comfortable to use!
ConsIt was a bit inconvenient that the product doesn't come out easily. There are some small particles inside, which I found a bit uncomfortable. While it's great for summer use, as someone with combination dehydrated skin, I found it lacking in hydration.
TipThis product is better suited for use as a skin pack rather than an exfoliating toner! Those with dry skin should consider applying additional moisturizer!
