Recently, even after my skincare routine, I've been experiencing dryness at night and redness with a warm sensation on my face in the afternoons and evenings. 1. Fragrance: It's fragrance-free. On the first day when I opened the product, I thought I detected a slight cosmetic scent, but after that, I didn't notice anything. 2. Texture and absorption: The consistency is between a watery liquid and a runny gel, which makes it very pleasant to use. Among products with this type of opening, many toners tend to drip excessively, making application inconvenient. However, this one has just the right texture for easy use. Interestingly, there are tiny bubbles dispersed in the toner, reminiscent of carbonated water. However, you don't feel any fizzy sensation when applying it to the skin. After a few days, these bubbles disappeared. When applied, it doesn't evaporate immediately. As you pat it in, it absorbs well into the skin. Right after application, it might feel slightly dry, but once I've completed my routine up to the emulsion, I've never experienced any deep dryness. 3. 🌟Solving deep dryness🌟 I used to struggle a lot with how to address the deep dryness I felt even after my skincare had dried (or been absorbed). But since using this product, I haven't experienced deep dryness even once!!!! If it weren't for the drawback, I would have switched to this product for life... It's such a shame... In terms of resolving deep dryness, it was truly outstanding. 4. Eco-friendly: I also appreciated that this product uses reusable containers, easily removable labels, and environmentally friendly packaging in pursuit of sustainability.
Cons- Skin blemishes: I really thought I had finally found my holy grail, but this issue makes it so disappointing. About 5 days after first using the product, red spots started appearing on my skin, but I brushed it off thinking it was just due to my skin condition. It would have been fine if they had appeared for a day or two and then subsided, but after that, small bumps along with tiny whiteheads started popping up here and there on my skin. (After reading other reviews, I found someone who had the same symptoms as me.) There were no changes in my exfoliation routine, skincare, diet, or anything else except for this toner. Eventually, when I applied my previous Houttuynia Cordata toner, the bumps started to subside... For about ten days after switching to this toner, I hadn't felt any deep dryness, and I was briefly elated thinking I had finally been liberated from dehydration. However, this aspect didn't agree with me, which was really disappointing. For now, after calming my skin with the Houttuynia Cordata toner, I'll try applying this product again. If it's okay, I'll continue using it or find a way to make it work. I'm really disappointed because of the good memory of not feeling any deep dryness.
TipPersonally, I find it better to apply a thin layer twice rather than using it as a toner pack with cotton pads. The instructions also suggest applying it in multiple layers.
