I use this product daily, and even though I have sensitive skin, it doesn't irritate and I really like it.
Cons
The fragrance is a bit strong, like alcohol, so the scent is not great, but other than that, there's nothing bad about it.

▫️Spreadability: It is a completely watery formula ▫️Absorption: Average ▫️Moisturizing: Seems to lack it 🔸As it is MEDICATED, it has a distinctly medicinal feel First of all, it has a scent of alcohol and peppermint mixed together And it seems to have strong cleansing power (?) Makeup that wasn't fully removed by toner comes off dirtily when using this skin... I'm satisfied! Whenever I get occasional breakouts, using it feels like a treatment, so it's good as it makes my skin feel refreshed
Cons
It's been discontinued ㅠㅠㅠㅠ I wish it would be re-released
Tip
I use the 5-skin method, and I finish up around the 4th step with this toner

If you want to feel the cooling effect while using the product If you don't have severe acne or blemishes (This toner may cause redness and irritation on troubled skin! It's not because the ingredients are bad, but rather the alcohol in the product can feel irritating on wounds! However, the soothing effect is amazing) I recommend this to you. I don't usually get big pimples, but I have a lot of heat on my face, large pores, and combination skin with blackheads and oily nose. I used this product about once a month for around 5 years. ㅠ.ㅠ Now it's difficult to purchase through overseas direct buying, so I'm leaving this review with a heavy heart...
Cons
If you dislike products that feel irritating, or don't like the alcohol smell/stinging sensation, or don't want something that stings your eyes, I don't recommend this!

This is a toner that I've been using consistently since I was in the military! First of all, it overwhelms with its quantity, and although it was originally intended for spot treatment, given the military's characteristic of not allowing personal items to be used freely, and since my entire face was in a state of acne alert, it was fine for me to apply it all over. It gives a feeling of removing excess oil, and I think it's a product with a generally good balance, without any tightness and also good for soothing. I would often reapply it and rinse my face with water when I was sweating during the day, and it worked very well for me. It doesn't have any particularly outstanding features, but it's not lacking either, and it's a product that I'm generally satisfied with, without causing any problems.
Cons
The first thing you notice when you open the lid is the scent! I got used to it and didn't mind it, but it's strong enough that people around me can smell it right after application. They say it smells like alcohol swabs. When you apply it, it has a stinging, tingling sensation that's addictive, but I don't think it's a good thing for the skin. Sensitive people might consider this the biggest downside.

Even though I don't have acne-prone skin, I occasionally get very painful and large folliculitis on my chin or philtrum. That's why I always rely on this product for soothing and astringent purposes. I've been using it consistently for about 4 bottles now. I almost always have it stocked up, like an essential item. When I have folliculitis or acne, I can apply it on a cotton pad and place it on the troubled area to disinfect it, and it provides a refreshing, calming sensation. I also use it as an astringent during seasonal changes when my face gets flushed. Sometimes after shaving, if I get irritation, applying this gives me a soothing, cooling feeling... It has a very strong disinfectant (?) smell, but even as a highly sensitive person, I haven't experienced any adverse reactions from using it for a long time. This is my holy grail product.
Cons
First-time users may be taken aback by the smell... My family describes it as having a dental office-like odor. This is likely due to the camphor (from camphor tree) component, which creates a stinging, pungent scent. And since it's not a gentle toner but an astringent, it contains alcohol, so it may be irritating around the eye area.

I was under a lot of stress due to my acne, but after reading positive reviews about this product on Hwahae, I decided to purchase it! Definitely, my blemishes have calmed down and the bumps have disappeared, so I'm seeing great results! I got a discount on Hwahae, so I'm satisfied with the price and the amount.
Cons
The smell is quite alcoholic, so it's not very pleasant when applying it. And when I put it on my face, there's a stinging sensation that comes up and it hurts a little bit ㅜㅜ The effects are good, but these aspects make me hesitant to use it.
Tip
It's best to apply it concentrated on the areas that need care by soaking it in cotton pads!

It's better to use it when you're sensitive rather than every day. It's good for soothing when you're sunburned. The main ingredient isn't much, but the volume is large. Haha
Cons
The herbal scent is a bit difficult, but I use it thinking it's healing. My kids don't come around because of the smell. Haha
Tip
It works great for summer sunburns. Use it together with aloe vera gel.

It cools down the heat on my face and the refreshing cooling sensation is great. It feels like something is being disinfected, haha.
Cons
It doesn't really replenish moisture, so that's a bit disappointing. But it's still worth trying out, haha.

1. Applying it briefly to the troubled area shows quick effects 2. Seems to have a cooling effect
Cons
1. Quite irritating 2. Leaves a drying sensation after application 3. Overpowering alcohol smell 4. Minimal effect on closed comedones
Tip
This product seems suitable for those with inflammatory or pustular breakouts, rather than those with just closed comedones. It may be too harsh to apply all over the face.

This product is great for acne-prone skin and various small red spots. It is incredibly refreshing. This is the first time I've encountered such a product, and when I have a breakout, I can just soak a cotton pad with it and apply it to the affected area, and it calms the skin. Instead of buying expensive spot treatments, it's better to get this and use it for a long time.
Cons
The lid tends to break easily. If you use the product heavily or the quantity is large, the lid may become a bit flimsy over time, so the durability is not the best. However, it should be fine if you use it sparingly.
Tip
I'm using it for my breakouts, and when I soak a cotton pad with it and apply it to the affected area, there's no better way to care for it. Putting it in a rubber pack and using it makes it feel so refreshing. It also has a calming effect on sunburned, reddened skin during the hot summer or vacation.
