Not Sticky

Doesn't Sit on Skin

Silky Smooth

Even when I'm too lazy and only apply this before bed, I don't feel like my face lacks hydration the next day~~
However, it doesn't seem to have other functional benefits, so I use it with other targeted products in the evening and just this one in the morning!
Even when using other products, I always want to keep this on my vanity!

*Personally, I prefer transparent packaging for toners and essences.
*The case seems to get dirty easily!
*While it does make the skin feel soft, it doesn't seem to have any other special functions. It might be difficult to expect pore-refining or brightening effects~

1. Absorbs well
The texture is slightly runny, but it applies smoothly. It's not sticky at all~ Plus, even with just this product alone, I don't feel any tightness or lack of moisture.
It's so hydrating and gentle that in the morning, I just apply this before my foundation!

2. Absorbs well
It has a light texture that absorbs quickly, and after application, my skin feels soft and supple.

3. Convenience
Since it functions as both a toner and essence, I've put away my old toner, making my vanity feel a bit tidier... haha
It's super convenient when I'm too lazy to apply multiple products after a night of drinking - just cleansing and applying this is enough before bed.

4. Sensitivity
I don't have particularly sensitive skin, so it worked fine for me.
My boyfriend has somewhat sensitive skin, and he often asks me to apply this when his skin feels dry. We haven't had any issues! I was a bit worried about the coconut ingredient, but it turned out to be fine~

베리어 인핸싱 토너 투 에센스

저녁에는 요 토너 투 에센스랑 앰플 정도만 바르면 안무겁고 촉촉하니 좋습니당

딱히.. 없는듯?
굳이 따지자면 뚜껑 닫았을 때 위에 에센스가 약간 묻어서 힌번 닦아서 얼굴에 좀 더 발라줘야하는점..?

기름도 많고 건조함도 많이 느끼는 수부지입니다. 세수하고 나서 로션까지 안 바르면 항상 건조 했는데 이거는 조금만 발라도 촉촉하고 가벼워서 너무 좋아요. 냄새도 은은해서 호불호 안갈릴것 같아요. 한 달정도 사용했는데 다 사용하면 새로 하나 더 살 예정이에요

As I mentioned in the pros, I highly recommend keeping it in the bathroom and applying it immediately after cleansing.

While I don't have extremely dry skin, I did find myself wishing it was just a tad more hydrating.

It absorbs well with just one application, leaving your skin feeling hydrated. I keep it in the bathroom and apply it right after cleansing. Even when I'm drying my hair or doing other things, I don't need a separate skin pack - my skin doesn't feel dry at all, but stays nicely moisturized. There's no stickiness or greasiness, which is perfect for someone like me who dislikes those sensations.

It's wonderfully hydrating. It's so gentle and nice that I can't find any downsides.

I discovered this brand thanks to the Instagram comic artist (GJ). The essence has a very watery consistency!

Well... I'm disappointed that I can't find anything disappointing about it!

As a guy, this is the most expensive cosmetic product I've ever bought. But it's become my go-to, multipurpose item that I keep reaching for!

For intense winter hydration, try layering it two or three times. Your skin will thank you!

While I can't find any real faults with the product, I do wish it was a bit more affordable. A lower price point would make it even more appealing for regular use.

I'm absolutely thrilled with this two-in-one product that combines toner and essence. It's so convenient to apply! The formula absorbs well without sitting on top of the skin, which is fantastic. It's perfect for those with dry skin, providing deep hydration. This is an excellent choice for winter skincare.

The texture is a bit too runny, so it tends to dispense more product than needed... Keep that in mind when using.

The hydration is absolutely fantastic! It's so moisturizing and gentle, which makes it even better.

Works well when used with the cream from the same line.

The packaging design is questionable. It gets quite messy over time. I wish it came with a dropper or a flip-top lid instead.

Hydrating formula! This ampoule toner has a runny consistency that leaves skin feeling moisturized. It's perfect to use during seasonal changes.

While the scent isn't overpowering, it's not particularly pleasant or something I'd want to apply to my face

I love how this feels like it provides complete care with just one application

The scent is unlike anything I've ever encountered in skincare before.

Super gentle, which I absolutely love! Highly recommended. I'll probably repurchase.

Absorption: 4/5
Absorbs well: 3/5
Blemishes: 2/5
Sticky: 2/5

The finish feels a bit sticky, and it seems to not agree with my skin, making it oily and causing blemishes to appear. I ended up using it every other day or applying it to my body before giving it to a friend with dry skin. While it provides a lot of hydration and makes the skin feel plump, I kept getting pimples, so I stopped using it. Looking at it now, I see it contains coconut oil. Whenever a product contains coconut, it initially makes my skin feel soft and nice, but it always ends up clogging my pores and causing breakouts. For those with oily skin, you could honestly use this as if it were a serum. It feels heavy for a toner.

The ingredients are gentle, and it doesn't sting when applied, leaving the skin feeling hydrated. Despite its runny texture, it absorbs well into the skin. Like the cream, the barrier line has been quite effective in improving deep hydration. The next day, my skin feels plump and supple.
