It's a liquid formula with a dense texture, not a watery consistency. As you can see in the photo, there's an oil layer, so you need to shake it before use. (For my extremely dry skin) While it's not incredibly hydrating, it feels adequately moisturizing - more so than my previous toner. It doesn't provide instant hydration, but rather seems to refine the skin's surface while gradually absorbing and providing moisture. As mentioned on the back of the product, there's a slight stickiness if you don't wipe it off with a cotton pad. Personally, I don't mind even thick, rich textures, so this was perfectly fine for me! When used as an exfoliating toner with a cotton pad, it feels like it creates a thin protective layer, making it suitable for all skin types.
ConsThe strong alcohol scent might be off-putting for those sensitive to fragrances. It's definitely a love-it-or-hate-it kind of smell.

It has a moisturizing effect and works wonderfully with makeup (creates a flawless base without caking). You'll never experience deep dryness. The skin improvement is visibly noticeable. It's gentle enough to use without worrying about blemishes. The lightweight container makes it convenient to carry around.
ConsThere's a lingering alcohol scent (reminds you of the morning after drinking, but you'll power through it for skincare). The product volume is on the smaller side. It's not ideal for those who prefer doing skin pack routines. The oil layer and toner layer don't mix well, remaining distinctly separate.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsWith 3% grape seed oil, I thought it would feel heavy, but it's surprisingly lightweight and moisturizing when applied. 1. Usually, products with oil cause blemishes for me, but I used this one without any issues. Unlike Primera's essence toner that caused breakouts in my T-zone, this product is light and didn't cause any blemishes. 2. Despite containing oil, the texture is lighter than expected, yet it maintains hydration for a long time. In the morning, when using only toner usually leaves my skin tight and dry, this product alone keeps it adequately moisturized without any deep dryness. While regular toners seem to evaporate quickly, this one absorbs well into the skin, feeling light and hydrating thanks to its small oil content. 3. In fall and winter, when my skin gets very dry, I'm cautious about layering essences and creams as they can cause pilling during makeup application. However, after applying this dual serum toner generously, followed by a light layer of essence and cream, my makeup went on smoothly without any pilling. 4. This product seems essential for winter use. Due to extreme dryness, I usually buy foreign brand toners with oil, but their textures can be heavy. This product, however, absorbs quickly, doesn't sit on the skin, and has just the right texture and moisture level.
ConsThe scent is slightly disappointing. At first, there's a hint of alcohol smell, which initially made me hesitant to apply it generously, fearing it might strip away moisture like alcohol. However, despite the scent, it maintains hydration. It would be nicer if it had a fresh grape or lime fragrance to make application more enjoyable.
TipOn days when I have blemishes, applying cream before bed can worsen them, so I only use toner and essence. However, this often leaves my skin feeling tight and dry in the morning. Applying this Micro Dual Serum Toner generously followed by a light layer of essence before bed keeps my skin hydrated without aggravating blemishes. It works wonders!

Cons• After two weeks of use, no major drawbacks, but the strong alcohol scent might be off-putting. Hoped it would fade over time, but still haven't gotten used to it. • The grape seed oil and water layers separate, requiring mixing before use. The layers separate quickly while applying, so you need to close and shake the bottle again, which is inconvenient.
Tip• Due to the inconvenience of layer separation, I bought a separate mist bottle which works much better • A mist bottle is the way to go! • They should consider releasing it with a mist-type cap from the start!

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsAdvantages: "A perfect dual serum toner for those who want to lightly replenish moisture with oil!" <Skin type: Combination skin> Due to blemishes, I've been exfoliating a lot to remove dead skin cells and sebum. Without proper hydration, my skin could easily become dry. In other words, I have combination dehydrated skin! 1. Texture [Water-like consistency, soft finish] The product has an oil layer floating on top of the essence water. You're supposed to shake it before use. The instructions say to apply it with a cotton pad, but I found it works fine even without one! 2. Function [Hydration boost, nourishment] Thanks to the grape seed oil and essence water, it feels like it creates a thin, protective layer on the skin! The oil forms a moisture barrier that isn't thick or suffocating, and the remaining oil layer adds extra nourishment. When using an exfoliating toner, I often felt uncomfortable dryness without quick additional moisturizing, but this product eliminates that issue. 3. Ingredients [Skin barrier strengthening, antioxidant effects] I noticed niacinamide is listed near the top of the ingredients. I appreciate this as it's a significant component for antioxidant effects and improving complexion.
ConsDrawbacks: "The product has a strong alcohol scent..." 1. Fragrance: As the first step in my skincare routine, I found the alcohol scent a bit overwhelming, which was disappointing. However, it also gives a clean feeling, so it might be a matter of personal preference. 2. Product price: It's a bit pricey for use as an exfoliating toner, considering the volume. However, as a dual serum toner that combines the effects of both toner and serum, it might be worth considering.
TipTIP+ No matter how much you shake it, the grape seed oil and essence water layers won't mix completely! But don't worry - it spreads evenly when applied to the skin, so the separation isn't an issue.

The fact that I haven't experienced any blemishes since using this suggests the ingredients are quite gentle on the skin.
ConsIt has an alcohol scent, so those sensitive to fragrances should keep this in mind.
TipWhen used with a cotton pad, it effectively removes dead skin cells and helps makeup apply smoothly - it's fantastic! It's great for light, everyday use.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsSince it contains oil, I felt that it definitely holds moisture longer than other toners that only provide light hydration or dead skin cell management before emulsions or creams. If you layer it multiple times during your skincare routine, this product alone can make your skin feel hydrated. For those worried that the oil might make it feel greasy or heavy, there's no need for concern. If your skin is very dry, I highly recommend this product!
ConsWhile the oil and essence layers mix quickly when shaken, I noticed they separate faster than expected. When first applied to the skin, there's a rather strong alcohol scent, so those sensitive to fragrances should be cautious.
TipAfter using a cotton pad soaked with toner to refine the skin, layering it two or three times and allowing it to absorb well enables hydration from the toner step of your skincare routine. I felt that this also aids in the absorption of subsequent products.

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsI prefer toners that provide even a slight moisturizing effect compared to plain water toners, and this one was really great for me, especially during winter with my dry skin!! These days, many toners contain exfoliating ingredients, which isn't ideal for my sensitive skin. That's why I'm always on the lookout for gentle toners, and this one is perfect for someone like me. The photo was taken right after application, and I love how hydrated it makes my skin feel! Those with oily skin might find it a bit rich, so keep that in mind!
ConsThere is a slight alcohol scent, but it's not overpowering. I'm not particularly sensitive to fragrances, so it didn't bother me. I was worried it might irritate my skin, but I didn't experience any issues. One minor inconvenience is that when layering multiple times, you need to close the lid and shake it between applications, which can be a bit tedious.
TipJust one application provides sufficient oil and moisture balance!

Reviews by The Hwahae Testers undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsSkin type: Very dry, sensitive Improved skin texture: Since I started using this, my skin texture has become incredibly soft. It's the only change in my skincare routine, so the results are undeniable. Even during seasonal changes when my skin usually feels rough and flaky, this product has made it feel comfortable and smooth. Deep hydration: My skin tends to break out in tiny bumps if the oil and moisture balance is even slightly off. I was worried this might be too rich, but I was surprised by its refreshing texture. It absorbs quite quickly for a product containing oils. When applying, it feels like a regular water-based toner, but after absorption, it leaves a slight glow and smoothness. Applying this 2-3 times followed by a moisturizer left my skin feeling perfectly comfortable and hydrated.
ConsAlcohol scent: The strong alcohol smell when applying is a bit bothersome. It does dissipate quickly during absorption, but it's still disappointing. Product size: As I apply it multiple times using the pat-and-absorb method, I go through it faster than expected. I wish they would make a larger size available.
TipRemember to shake well before use! Apply exfoliating toner, layer this product 2-3 times for absorption, then follow with moisturizer for best results.

Absorption - This product needs to be shaken before use, and it has a lightweight texture. However, it feels like it evaporates quickly, similar to alcohol. I applied it in two steps: first using a cotton pad, then directly with my hands. This method made my skin feel more hydrated and refreshed! 2. Scent - The product's fragrance isn't overpowering, but personally, I detected an alcohol-like scent. 3. Volume - It comes in a 150ml bottle. Since I use it in two steps, I expect to go through it quite quickly. 4. Overall Review - Initially, I was concerned about the alcohol scent and the quick-evaporating feeling, wondering, 'Will this strip moisture from my skin?' However, after applying it in two steps (cotton pad, then hands), my face felt incredibly hydrated! I'm not entirely sure about its moisturizing power, though. Personally, I think this product is more suitable for summer than winter due to its lightweight texture.
ConsThe alcohol-like scent might be off-putting for those sensitive to fragrances. However, I didn't experience any blemishes throughout my use of the product!
