I used to use a toner with a thicker consistency, so I really appreciated how lightweight this one is. It's perfect for layering multiple times! I was worried it might smell like cucumbers, but it just has a typical cosmetic scent. I loved that it's light but doesn't leave my skin feeling parched. It gave me the sensation of replenishing hydration, and the way it absorbs so quickly is truly fantastic. My skin has become super sensitive lately, but this didn't cause any irritation at all. Highly recommend!
ConsThe scent was slightly disappointing. While it's a typical cosmetic fragrance, it can be a bit bothersome.
TipI use it with a foam pump as shown in the picture, which I find makes for an even gentler application. I definitely recommend trying this method!

Recently, during winter, my makeup tends to flake around my nose due to dryness. However, I found that applying this toner with a cotton pad as a mask before my skincare routine prevents flaking and keeps my skin beautifully hydrated.
ConsThe scent isn't cucumber-like, but rather an artificial cosmetic fragrance that bothered me every time I used it. If it weren't for the scent, I would consider repurchasing.
TipRecommended as a toner mask

The texture is very close to water, and surprisingly, there was no cucumber sensation at all! As for the positive aspects... I don't think there were any.
ConsI was hoping for the characteristic coolness and gentleness of cucumber, but it was more irritating than expected for calming sensitive winter skin. It's not even an exfoliating toner, yet when I used it as a facial mist, it stung immediately upon application. The fragrance isn't mild either; it's a bit harsh, reminiscent of my mother's cosmetics. I was disappointed as it was so different from what I had anticipated.

I couldn't help but get excited! When I received it, I was surprised by how big the bottle was! After trying it out, it felt like the quintessential toner. I used it on a cotton pad to refine my skin texture after cleansing, and also applied it as the first step in my skincare routine. It's hydrating and absorbs well, but since the watery texture can be tricky to apply with hands, I preferred using a cotton pad. It was also great as a quick toner mask when my cheeks felt warm! Unlike other toners, this one made my skin feel instantly smoother, as if my skin texture improved right away! The difference between using it and not using it was noticeable. It also seemed more hydrating than other toners - my face didn't feel very dry after application. Of course, you'd follow up with other skincare steps, but compared to other toners, this one left my skin feeling less parched right after use.
ConsI was hoping for a cool, refreshing cucumber scent, but it just smells like regular skincare products, which was a bit disappointing.
TipIt's really nice to use when chilled in the refrigerator for an extra cooling effect.

It absorbs incredibly fast. Leaves a crisp scent reminiscent of biting into fresh vegetables. ⭐ After Use Feels cool like a cucumber mask and seems to create a moisturizing barrier. Skin texture feels smooth after application. ⭐ Ingredients While all ingredients are good, the fragrance might make it less suitable for super sensitive skin. ⭐ Recommended for Those with intact skin barrier who enjoy texture refinement, hydration, and a cooling sensation, especially during seasonal changes or summer.
Cons⭐ Room for Improvement The artificial fragrance is a bit disappointing, but the gentle ingredients make up for it!
Tip⭐ Pro Tip Might be great for reducing facial heat after a workout.

Personally, I find it cute and appealing :) ✔️Texture: It has a water-like consistency. Perfect for someone like me who uses toners in exfoliating toner or spray bottles. ✔️No stickiness! I personally dislike products that feel sticky after application, but this one absorbs well, leaving the skin hydrated and fresh. It was great to use in the morning before makeup. ✔️Irritation: Even with my super sensitive skin, I didn't experience any irritation while using it. In fact, it had a soothing effect.
Cons✔️The hydration doesn't last very long. As someone with deep dryness, it didn't completely address that issue. It might be difficult to use this product alone. ✔️Scent: While not overwhelming, the fragrance feels a bit artificial and disconnected from nature, which was disappointing. I think this aspect might be hit or miss for some people.

As someone who doesn't like sticky formulas, I really enjoyed using this lightweight, water-like texture without any burden. The slight green tint gives a cool and refreshing feel. What I loved most was the hydration. Unlike most water-based toners that absorb quickly but leave the skin feeling dry, this one keeps your skin feeling moisturized for longer compared to other toners. It doesn't dry out immediately after application, maintaining that lovely hydrated feeling!
ConsAs someone sensitive to fragrances, I noticed a slightly peculiar scent. It's hard to pinpoint - maybe cucumber? There's a hint of an artificial note which was a bit disappointing. However, the scent doesn't linger, so it wasn't too much of an issue!
TipFor an amazing soothing effect, try keeping it in the fridge and using it as a cooling toner mask!

I had faith in this product even before using it. Maybe it's because cucumber water replaces purified water, but the hydration was incredible. With other toners, I usually need to layer twice, but with this one, a single application was enough to prevent dryness. Plus, it's a large size, so it's perfect for toner masking - absolutely fantastic! We all know how great cucumbers are for hydration and soothing, right? Just soaking a cotton pad with the toner and placing it on your skin helps reduce redness. If you apply a thick layer of aloe and then do a toner mask, it's the ultimate hydration boost!
ConsIt's not terrible, but I found the scent a bit disappointing. It reminds me of those sample sheet masks from drugstores back in elementary school. Or maybe it's like... my mom's cosmetics smell? If this scent is naturally from the cucumber water, that's unavoidable. But if it's an artificial fragrance, I think a natural scent or no scent at all would be better. The scent was stronger than I expected, unfortunately.
TipAloe + Cucumber Water Toner = Hydration Heaven

Just looking at it, I could tell it would be a gentle toner. It's my first time trying a cucumber-based toner, which I found quite intriguing. Upon application, it truly felt mild and provided a light boost of hydration. Knowing it contains cucumber made it feel even more refreshing and lightweight. Since it's winter, I layered it two or three times before applying makeup, and it absorbed beautifully. The bottle is generously sized and affordable, making it an excellent choice for a daily toner.
ConsThe downside was the artificial cucumber scent. I'm quite sensitive to smells and have a weak stomach, so I really struggle with artificial fragrances. I personally didn't like the scent. However, for those who aren't as sensitive as I am, it probably won't be a significant issue.

While I don't expect a toner to provide intense hydration, it's perfect for that post-cleansing moment when your skin starts to feel tight, but you're not quite ready for essence or cream. I've noticed a real difference in my skin's texture when I use this toner to prep my skin versus just applying cream directly. What I've found when using it generously on a cotton pad is that while it's not a 'slimy' toner, it somehow leaves my face feeling smooth and sleek. It's not sticky, but there's definitely something special about it. I even tried using it as a skin pack, applying it liberally, and my skin had a noticeable glow afterwards.
ConsWith 70% cucumber water, I'm surprised there's no cucumber scent. Instead, there's a somewhat artificial, mature 'cosmetic' fragrance which is a bit disappointing. I wonder if they had to add artificial fragrance because the natural scent wasn't pleasant? While it didn't sting when it got into my eyes, there was some discomfort. Be careful not to saturate your cotton pad too much when wiping your forehead, as it can run into your eyes and cause some irritation (though I suppose it's normal for non-eye products to be uncomfortable in the eyes, but it doesn't sting at least).
TipSince it's a cucumber toner, try soaking a cotton pad generously and chilling it in the fridge before use. I've heard it's not good to repeatedly change the temperature of the whole bottle by putting it in and out of the fridge, so just prepare the cotton pads instead.
