But when this little gem came out, I was jumping for joy! The texture is light and refreshing, without the heaviness of a toner. It seems to provide deep hydration without producing excess oil. I think it's perfect for spring and summer use. I even noticed it helped with redness and calming my skin!
ConsI haven't been using it for long, so I'm not entirely sure, but I felt a slight itching sensation right after application. I'm not sure if it's just my imagination though.
TipIt works well when layered with other products.

While the Cream Skin has become much lighter since its initial release, I still thought it might be a bit heavy for summer use. However, this Gel Cream Skin is definitely lightweight while still locking in that hydration! It's not just your typical 'good moisture' feeling - it's like you can feel the water molecules being absorbed and held tightly by your skin. It gives your skin this plump, bouncy feeling! It's as if it's gripping and supporting your epidermis. Maybe it's because of the peptides? The experience is definitely different from regular toners, and I was honestly amazed by Laneige's technology... This is not your average toner. Usually, the toner step just feels like you're physically adding moisture, right? But the fact that this product, at the toner stage, gives you the sensation of a gel cream really gripping and adhering moisture to your skin... it's incredible. You can really tell this is literally the popular Laneige Gel Cream turned into a toner! And being a toner, it absorbs even better... Oh, and usually products with zinc tend to dry out your skin immediately, giving that powdery feel, which can be really uncomfortable if you have deep dryness. But with this product, I was surprised - it's hard to believe it even contains zinc! It doesn't have that typical drying effect at all. It controls oil sufficiently while only filling in moisture, so I think it would be perfect for combination dehydrated skin!
ConsThe downside is... I think it would be better if it came in a mist bottle so you could spray it on your face rather than applying it with your hands. Since it's a toner with small particles, when you pour it into your hands, it feels like your hands end up more moisturized than your face...
TipFor those who find it bothersome to apply multiple products, just like with the Cream Skin, you can layer the Gel Cream Skin several times and finish off with the Laneige Sleeping Mask before bed for a perfect, simple routine! It's not sticky, doesn't over-moisturize, and simplifies your skincare routine significantly!

So when I heard about this new, lighter gel-cream version, I decided to give it a try. To be honest, I was a bit disappointed. However, it is indeed lightweight and absorbs well. It's great for providing light hydration. Although it didn't quite suit my skin, I found it works well as a toner substitute when applying makeup.
ConsFirst off, for some unknown reason, it caused a tingling sensation on my face. On top of that, I even got some minor blemishes. This never happened with the Cream Skin, so it's not due to heaviness. If you have super sensitive skin like mine, you might want to reconsider using this. This is just my personal opinion, though. I usually love Laneige products!
TipI'd recommend this for those with combination dehydrated skin or oily skin who find regular toners too heavy but feel that water-based toners are too light. However, if you have sensitive, blemish-prone skin like mine, make sure to patch test before purchasing! Also, if these types of products work well for you, consider getting a Daiso mist spray bottle to fill with this product. It's great for spritzing throughout the day for added hydration!

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.ProsThe container is lightweight, and the Laneige engraving on the lid gives it a luxurious look. The wide opening makes it easy to dispense without spilling. The gel-cream formula gives it a translucent color. They included a skin pack container, suggesting you pour the toner in for a mask - that would be great for dry skin. It feels more hydrating than refreshing, so it might suit dry skin better than oily. Since the toner contains cream elements, you could apply moisturizer right after or even layer the toner multiple times for added hydration.
ConsIt's a hydrating toner, not a refreshing one! As someone with oily skin, I don't reach for it often. I prefer products that leave a clean base without any stickiness, so this doesn't seem to work for me.
TipThis would likely work better for dry skin than oily. If you apply multiple layers, you can achieve a moisturized feel even without using a cream.

It goes on light while striking the perfect balance between a rich feel and refreshing hydration. I love how it maintains moisture right from the skincare stage.
ConsI'm not entirely sure. However, it might not be suitable for winter use.

I often use soothing masks, and this one, being a water-based essence, was convenient to apply. It felt like my skin was drinking water, absorbing the hydration immediately, which I really liked.
ConsThe scent is nearly fragrance-free, so there probably won't be strong opinions about it either way. I think it would be better if the bottle opening was a bit more pointed, as it would allow for pouring directly onto the mask.
TipUsing it daily as a hydrating and soothing mask shows quick calming effects, which is great!

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 have typical combination dehydrated skin. In summer, I only use toner, and in winter, I use toner (or essence) plus a moisturizer. This toner has a lightweight formula packed with hydration, which I really like. It's perfect for layering multiple times - a true water-based toner. I've been using the Laneige Cream Skin since last winter, and this one definitely feels less rich and more refreshing in comparison. I think it'll be perfect for the upcoming summer! It would be even better if it came with a mist pump option - that would be ideal! The packaging is identical to the Cream Skin, which I personally prefer - clean and simple without any unnecessary frills.
ConsThe cap requires quite a few turns to open, which can be a bit cumbersome. I've been using a mist-type bottle with a snap cap before, so this feels a bit more inconvenient in comparison.

The oil and moisture balance - My skin's balance was thrown off due to excess oil, causing a breakout. I've been doing daily hydration plumping, but even though I have combination dehydrated skin, I need to balance the oil too. I've tried various oil-based creams, but even small amounts felt heavy. This toner is great for balancing oil and moisture! I recommend it because it lightly balances oil without needing a heavy cream. Texture - I was worried about applying a heavy texture at the toner stage since it's called a gel-cream toner, but it feels just like water! I prefer this as I don't like sticky toners. Sebum reduction - After using it, the tiny sebum beads on my cheeks have significantly decreased! It seems to have reduced blemishes on my cheeks too. Hydration - It seems quite moisturizing! After using this product, my dryness has reduced considerably, allowing me to achieve that Inner Glow look. Ingredients - After use, I didn't experience any negative effects. In fact, my skin improved!
ConsThe lid... it's a bit inconvenient. You have to use force to twist and close it. I'm careful not to get bacteria on my hands during skincare, so this is a bit troublesome! I wish it had a snap-on lid!
TipI recommend this to those with combination dehydrated skin and excessive sebum production. It's great for balancing oil and moisture!

Perfect for an exfoliating toner, or you can simply pat it in with your hands. - Hydration: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ As someone with combination dehydrated skin that tends to get oily, this product seems perfect for the current dry season! The hydration doesn't evaporate quickly, and true to its name, the moisture really stays put. However, it feels almost oil-free, so I think those with oily skin might really enjoy it too! (Like me) - Sensitivity: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ It's gentle. Really gentle. No blemishes appeared. In fact, the small bump I had disappeared. - Scent: Fragrance-free. Which I loved even more! - Packaging: It was bigger than I expected...! With a generous amount. However, when you open the cap, it's directly the opening, so I felt it would have been better if there was some kind of double seal. That's why I deducted 0.5 points.
ConsAs mentioned earlier, there's nothing bad except for the packaging! I was satisfied with the product itself as it's gentle and provides good hydration!
TipYou can use it as an exfoliating toner, or soak a cotton pad and use it as a mask before applying makeup! Alternatively, you can gently pat and massage it in with just your hands!

As someone with combination sensitive skin (dry on the cheeks and chin, combination dehydrated on the nose), I've been feeling the effects of the cooler mornings and evenings lately. My skin was starting to show some dead skin cells and dryness, but after using this product, I was extremely satisfied. True to its name 'Cream Skin', it feels as moisturizing as a cream despite being a toner. I really appreciated how hydrating and nourishing it felt! Not only is the product itself great, but I was also impressed by the attention to detail in the packaging and product case: 1. Sturdy packaging: Despite being made of paper, the packaging was incredibly sturdy and solid! It's great to see them using environmentally-friendly materials while also addressing the typical weakness of paper packaging. 2. Sleek and attractive container: The container is clean-looking and pretty - totally my style! The white cap clicks shut securely, and the product dispenses smoothly (it comes out in a nice stream, not in dribs and drabs - perfect for creating a daily mask routine).
ConsHmm... I honestly can't think of any downsides to this product! It's just that good. It really suits my style.
TipI recommend using this as a mask pack on dry areas! You don't need expensive cotton pads - just pick up some 1/2 cut cotton pads from a discount store and try a toner mask! While a toner mask alone won't be enough for very dry skin, if you layer this product for hydration and follow up with an emulsion and cream, you'll feel your skin being nourished from deep within.
