ConsI bought it for the 7-skin method, but it's extremely drying. Compared to other toners (like Mamonde Rose Water or Isoi Gentle Skin Toner), it's way too drying. I think this should only be used for balancing skin texture, unfortunately.

While it might feel a bit tight on the skin in winter, I think it's perfectly fine for summer use. The large size means you can use it generously without worry.
ConsIt's not particularly hydrating, so my skin feels a bit dry. Strangely, when I use it as an exfoliating toner with a cotton pad, the area around my nose starts to tingle. As a part-time worker, I find the price a bit steep for my budget.

The scent isn't unpleasant. It's pretty standard, nothing particularly special.
ConsIt's incredibly drying. I mean, seriously drying. Welcome to the world of extreme dryness!
TipWell, I think it might be better if you transfer it to a spray bottle. That's just my personal opinion though!

As someone with acne-prone skin, I've always opted for alcohol-free products. This one absorbs well without causing any irritation, which I find personally satisfying.
ConsAlthough I have blemish-prone skin, I also suffer from severe dryness, which leads to deep dryness on my face. That's why I quickly apply essence and emulsion cream as part of my routine.

I've tried other toners, but nothing compares, so I always come back to this one. It's gentle, non-irritating, and budget-friendly. I use it with cotton pads to wipe my face after cleansing, or I put it in a mist bottle for the '7-skin method'. I spray and pat it in 3-4 times, which leaves my skin feeling hydrated and wonderful.
ConsBeing a water-based toner, it can feel a bit drying on my skin if I only apply one layer. I recommend either applying multiple layers or following up with other skincare products for better hydration.

After cleansing, I always wipe with toner, and it feels like it cleanses thoroughly.
ConsPerhaps because I have dry skin, there's a slight feeling of tightness.

I use it as the final step of my cleansing routine, applying it with a cotton pad. Even though it's a generous 500ml size, I'm still working through the bottle.
ConsI chose this alcohol-free product for both skin refinement and hydration, but I'm not so sure about its moisturizing effects. In the end, I'm using it just for toning and have to use a separate toner for hydration.

The ingredients are gentle No harmful components, and if you check the back, you'll see the fragrance is extracted from natural lavender. (That's why the scent isn't particularly pleasant.) It's a favorite among Green Beauty bloggers. 2. It's refreshing and lightweight If you're just looking for a regular toner, this is a safe choice you can use without any issues.
Cons1. The scent isn't particularly pleasant 2. It's too expensive in Korea In the US, you can buy it for just over $10, and during sales, it can go for as low as $6... In Korea, it feels like a waste of money. 3. It can be drying for those with dry skin (when used with a cleanser) I have dry skin, and if I don't moisturize after using this product, my skin feels tight. Especially during fall, winter, and spring. However, there's no tightness at all if I just rinse with water.
TipUsing it with a cotton pad is more effective as a toner than applying it with your hands. Also, you know how they say to wash with just water to boost skin's self-regeneration? If you cleanse with water and then use this toner, your skin feels soft and amazing without any tightness! From now on, I'm definitely going to wash with water and use this toner on my makeup-free days.

Being alcohol-free, it's less irritating for easily reddened skin like mine. I switched from the unscented version to lavender because I wanted a bit more excitement. The scent is subtle and just perfect, not overpowering at all.
ConsWhile it's fine to use as a toner, I wouldn't recommend applying it as a leave-on product. For those with dry skin like mine, wiping with a cotton pad leaves the skin feeling as tight as after cleansing.
TipYou can get it much cheaper if you buy directly from overseas. It's usually around $10 per bottle, so I stock up on 2-3 at a time.

It's affordable, making it great for everyday use.
ConsAs someone with combination dehydrated skin, I experienced some deep dryness after using it.
TipI transfer it to a mist spray bottle and use it right after cleansing. Without drying my face, I spray it on both my skin and a cotton pad, then gently wipe.
