- 51*****Dehydrated SkinAcne SkinWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresRecommendedJun 23, 2022
As a water-based toner with great value for money, it's perfect for using liberally as an exfoliating toner. It leaves a refreshing finish, making it ideal for those with oily skin to control excess sebum. As someone with dry skin, I found it a bit drying. Although it's marketed as a pore toner, I didn't notice much improvement in my pores. - ga*******Dehydrated SkinAcne SkinSebum/BlackheadsRednessDec 8, 2021
I purchased and used this product myself. Here's my review from December 2021 on a product I bought in September 2020. Skin type: Deep undertone, light to cool summer light, sensitive 22 shade skin. This is a water-based toner that helps manage pores and blemishes. Scent: There's a slight minty aroma with a noticeable alcohol scent. The strong alcohol fragrance might be divisive. Ingredients: Only 1 out of 20 cautionary ingredients, and no known allergens. The formulation isn't particularly concerning. Texture: It's a pure water-type toner, best applied with a cotton pad. Pros: - Cooling effect: As it's designed for pore care, it contains peppermint extract, giving a refreshing sensation. - Lightweight: Being a water-based toner, it's perfect for those with oily skin, especially during summer. - Packaging: The lid is designed for easy, hygienic application - just press a cotton pad directly onto it. - Price: I bought the 500ml size. It's even more affordable during Etude House sales or on platforms like 11st or Coupang. Great value for money! Cons: - Dryness and intense sensation: While the cooling effect is a plus, the combination of peppermint extract and the water-based formula can feel quite drying and potentially irritating. - Irritation: As it's a water-type toner applied with a cotton pad and contains peppermint extract, it can be quite harsh when wiping. - Pore care effectiveness is questionable: Personally, I didn't see much improvement in my pores or sebum. Realistically, once pores are enlarged, they're difficult to restore, especially just with skincare products. - Scent: The strong alcohol scent might not be for everyone. Overall verdict: This could work well for non-sensitive, oily skin types during summer. HOWEVER! For those with dry or sensitive skin, or for use in seasons other than summer, it might be too light, irritating, and drying.
