It doesn't run like water but adheres nicely to the skin, making it feel even more hydrating. Even after multiple applications, it doesn't feel heavy, and the product itself is so gentle that I think even those with super sensitive skin would find it suitable! There's hardly any scent, making it a great all-around product for everyday use.
ConsAs expected, the packaging... While the product itself is fantastic, the container is a bit disappointing. The product doesn't dispense very easily, and it tends to get messy around the sides, which is a bit of a letdown.
TipIf you let it absorb like a mask, it seems to be great for soothing blemishes!

Every time I applied it, it absorbed smoothly, making my rough skin feel silky. Its excellent hydration kept my skin moisturized all day without any dryness. It absorbed quickly without stickiness, making it perfect for both morning and night use. Even on days when I experienced deep dryness, it provided reliable hydration. The texture is runny, but surprisingly it absorbs quickly. Despite being a bit heavier for a toner, its fast absorption makes it recommendable even to those who don't usually like runny formulas! As someone with super sensitive skin, I was satisfied with its soothing effect, which allowed me to use it comfortably. When applied to irritated, reddened skin, it quickly calmed and settled it. I appreciated being able to use it without worry even on days when my skin was sensitive. Lastly, checking the ingredients, I found it even more trustworthy as it contains only good ingredients without any irritants. Thanks to its gentle formulation, I felt my skin becoming healthier with long-term use, without any blemishes. Witch Factory products generally have good ingredients that suit my skin well, so it's a brand I regularly use. Overall, this toner offers a well-rounded combination of texture improvement, hydration, and soothing effects. I highly recommend it!
ConsThe bottle is quite sturdy, which was a bit different from what I'm used to, making it slightly inconvenient. Having to shake the product onto my hand instead of using a dropper was an unusual experience.
TipMist -> Panthenol Toner -> Aloe Hydrating Gel -> Panthenol Cream -> Camellia Oil This is the daily routine for my extremely dry skin that cracks and bleeds in winter if I don't apply hand cream even for a moment. Following this routine really provides great hydration, I swear!

It's a lightweight, moisturizing formula that absorbs well without leaving any sticky residue. My skin feels soft and smooth after application. I highly recommend this as a winter hydration essential!
ConsPersonally, I can't find many downsides to this product. If I had to nitpick, I'd say that sometimes I feel the need to apply a second layer for extra hydration, but that's about it.

The texture isn't too sticky, but it feels wonderfully hydrating. It seems to absorb well, which is great for my skin that tends to get dry deep down. Even with just this applied, I don't experience any deep dryness. I used to use a water-based toner, which definitely felt insufficient in winter, but this one absorbs well and provides a real sense of hydration. I also appreciate that the shipping and packaging seem environmentally conscious.
ConsIt's a bit disappointing that the bottle is so sturdy you can't squeeze it to use the product. However, it's not a major issue since the product comes out easily without squeezing.
TipIt works perfectly when you layer it like this: apply this toner, then a functional essence, and finish with a cream!

The overall ingredient list is good, so I'm quite satisfied!
ConsAs expected, the packaging is still inconvenient... If only they could improve the container, it would easily be a five-star product!
TipHere's my routine! After applying hydrating toner, serum, and emulsion or cream, soak a cotton pad with toner and place it on your face. Leave it for about 10 minutes, then remove. Your skin will be left incredibly glowy and plump!

However, after using this product as a base for a week, my deep dryness gradually improved. I was worried about its viscous texture, but it absorbs well and, most importantly, isn't sticky. It seems to have addressed my dehydration without causing any blemishes. For the first week, I applied essence toner + ampoule + emulsion + cream twice, but from the second week, essence toner + ampoule + either emulsion or cream once was enough. I'm still following this skincare routine! When my skin is super sensitive, I never use exfoliating toners regardless of the formula. What's great about this product is that you can simply pat it on with your hands to get its full benefits. Just apply it like you would an emulsion. I've tried all sorts of ampoules and creams, but who knew the essence toner was the answer... If you're still feeling dry no matter what you apply, I recommend trying a different toner!
ConsIt's a bit inconvenient that you have to shake the bottle vigorously to get the desired amount out, probably due to its viscosity, but you get used to it quickly.

This one fits the bill perfectly! It's packed with effective active ingredients without any unnecessary extras. What I love is that it doesn't dry out over time, nor does it feel sticky on my combination skin. The more you layer it, the more it creates this subtle, glowy sheen (see photo). It's ideal for this weather when our skin is battling harsh winds or dry indoor heating. Oily skin types can use it as a cream, while those with dry skin can apply it at the toner step. Apart from personal preferences, I think this product would suit all skin types!
ConsThere wasn't really anything I found disappointing. It ticked all the boxes I was hoping for, hitting the nail right on the head!
TipFor those with oily, combination, or combination dehydrated skin who still get oily even in cold weather due to indoor heating, try using this as your cream step instead of your toner step!

Soothing effect Thanks to the panthenol content, it has a calming effect. After storing it in the fridge, applying it to irritated, reddened skin provides an instant cooling effect and soothes the skin. 2. Moisturizing without stickiness The essence texture absorbs lightly. It's not sticky, so you can layer it multiple times without feeling heavy. 3. Gentle ingredients + Low irritation Free from artificial fragrances and alcohol, making it safe for sensitive skin. As someone with redness and sensitive to skin irritation, I was able to maintain a moisturizing skincare routine without any discomfort.
Cons1. Falls short on deep hydration It feels a bit light when used alone. If you have combination dehydrated or dry skin, I recommend using it with another moisturizing cream. 2. Inconvenient packaging design The open-top bottle design makes it difficult to control the amount dispensed, which might be a hit or miss for some users. 3. Might be too light for those seeking intense hydration Unless you have oily skin, one layer might not provide enough moisture. I suggest either layering it multiple times or adding a moisturizing cream on top.
Tip1. Use as a toner mask Saturate cotton pads and place them on your face to maximize instant hydration and soothing effects. 2. Apply immediately after cleansing Applying it while your skin is still slightly damp improves moisturization and speeds up product absorption. 3. Layer for increased hydration After applying and letting it absorb once, apply one or two more layers for an extra boost of hydration.

As someone who had only used water-based toners, my first encounter with a creamy emulsion toner was five years ago when I won the Zaodaam (a subsidiary of Witch's Pouch) Rice Cream Skin as part of The Hwahae Testers. It seems Witch's Pouch really excels at making this type of toner. I'm truly satisfied with how it absorbs quickly without any stickiness. It's packed with panthenol, which is famous for its skin benefits, so I feel it's really helped with strengthening my skin barrier. It provides definite hydration for skin that constantly suffers from cold winds and heaters in winter (with dryness and flaking as a bonus, sadly). I love how it soothes dead skin cells. I was worried it might cause blemishes due to being too moisturizing and nourishing, but I'm pleased that I didn't experience any breakouts while using it! After trying it this time, I think I'll continue to purchase this toner with my own money for the cooler seasons.
ConsYou have to open the lid and tap it to dispense the product, which can make the area around the opening messy. I wondered if a pump might have been better, but then I realized that with this lid, you can twist it open to use every last drop when you're almost finished. So, I think this might actually be the better option. However, there is a slight inconvenience in having to carefully wipe around the opening after each use to prevent product buildup.
TipI highly recommend this toner for any skin type during fall and winter! If you start your skincare routine with this product while your skin is still slightly damp after cleansing, I think it will ensure deep hydration.

What I loved most is that it's not sticky at all and absorbs beautifully, leaving skin feeling soft and smooth! Packaging: The container looks sleek and clean. The top separates easily, and overall it has an attractive design. Price: While not exactly cheap, it's often on sale. It's not a toner you'd use liberally like water, but rather one that works well as a substitute for serums or ampoules, making it quite cost-effective!
ConsIt's hard to call this a drawback, but if I had to pick something: For dry skin types, you might need to pair this product with a deeply moisturizing cream. For combination skin, this product plus a hydrating cream would be perfect. For oily skin, this product with a light soothing gel should be sufficient!
