I bought the Dokdo set at a special discount price. It's the first toner I use, and it's completely watery. Since it's said to have dead skin cell exfoliating properties, I use it as the very first step. It's easy to use as an exfoliating toner without any particular standout features. Great value for money, allowing for generous application.
ConsBe careful as it's very liquid and can spill easily. I don't use it daily despite its exfoliating properties.

I used it 3-4 times a week and it's excellent at managing oil and sebum 👍🏻✨ ✔️ Tip: Using it in the morning before makeup can help control oil and sebum production like a fixer primer! Recommended ⭐️ 📍 Only wipe-off toner • Water type • Almost no scent Low pH, exfoliating ingredients (removes dead skin cells), supports Dokdo sea lions 🦭
ConsNot recommended for dry & sensitive skin! As it's a water-type, wipe-off product, expect irritation and increased dryness. ✔️ The same line offers a night product with an essence-like absorbing toner.
TipEven if you don't have dry skin, many people avoid using exfoliating toners daily. I'm like that too, so I recommend using this instead of peel-off masks! If you find peel-off masks bothersome or don't have time, using this just 2-3 times a week noticeably improved my pores and dead skin cells. (I saw good results even when using a small amount, enough to dampen half a cotton pad)

It seems perfect for use during seasonal changes. Although it's meant for daytime use, I applied it as the final step after cleansing at night, and it really helped refine my skin texture. While it didn't completely eliminate deep dryness after morning and evening cleansing, it did seem effective at removing dead skin cells! I love that I can use it in this order: cleanse, exfoliate, then apply the Dokdo Day Clear Toner - it helps tone the skin without causing much irritation. And the packaging is absolutely adorable!
ConsDespite its watery consistency, it didn't feel as light and refreshing as I expected. (However, after finishing the bottle and trying other toners, I realized) it's actually incredibly lightweight and refreshing. I now understand how truly light it feels compared to other products. That's why I repurchased this product... Also, the scent is surprisingly artificial with a noticeable alcohol smell. It's not bothersome when applied to the skin, but it's quite strong when you open the cap. Of course, I personally like the alcohol scent, so it didn't bother me.
TipThis toner pairs well with heavier creams. For those with extremely dry skin like mine who've been using rich creams all winter, as the weather warms up, the combination of serum and cream might feel too heavy. This toner with a rich cream could be a good balance, even suitable for morning use.

The scent is reminiscent of a forest or perhaps the ocean - it has a natural fragrance. The cooling effect is amazing as soon as it touches your face! It's great for reducing heat and soothing redness when applied to flushed areas. Since it contains exfoliating ingredients, I also used it to remove makeup, and it cleaned everything off nicely. It puts cleansing waters to shame!
ConsIt seems to contain alcohol, so those sensitive to alcohol might want to take note. I personally didn't experience any adverse reactions.
TipIt's great to use as a mist by putting it in an empty mist bottle. It's also good as an exfoliating toner or for removing makeup.

First off, I absolutely love the ingredients in the Dokdo Toner. For sensitive, blemish-prone skin like mine, good ingredients are the top priority! I've tried using it as a toner pad in both my morning and evening routines. Interestingly, I found it works better in the morning! It feels a bit too light for nighttime use. Recently, I've realized how crucial exfoliation is for uneven skin texture. This toner really impressed me in that aspect! After using an exfoliating gel and following up with this toner, I could definitely feel my dead skin cells being smoothed away. If you're concerned about dead skin cells and excess oil, I think this toner will be your go-to from now on. As for the scent, it's nearly fragrance-free, but there is a subtle aroma (even though fragrance isn't listed in the ingredients!). It's not overpowering at all - just a fresh, pleasant scent that I quite enjoy.
ConsThe packaging feels a bit cheap, but I appreciate that it's easy to recycle, so that's a plus!
TipIt's better to use this as a toner pad in the morning rather than evening, especially for exfoliation. I think those with oily skin types will be particularly satisfied with this product!
