While it worked well for my oily-skinned sister, it didn't suit my dry and sensitive skin.
ConsSince I have a sensitive skin type, it did sting a bit.
TipI would recommend thoroughly checking the ingredients and seeing if it suits your skin type before making a purchase!

But then, the occasional pimple or two that popped up went away. After that, I couldn't use any other skincare products anymore (haha). The stinging was only in the beginning, and now it's fine. If I feel like a pimple is coming up, I soak a cotton pad in it and leave it on for about 20 minutes, and that works even better!
ConsIn the beginning, it was a bit irritating, which might not work for some skin types.

I will continue to use it steadily.
ConsIf the concentration was a bit higher, the results would be better.
TipUse it together with the pore-tightening cream.

It feels a bit stronger than the one I used before, but I'm not sure if it's suitable to use as a toner...I'm not super sensitive, and the 15% Aha Pack was fine, but this one is much more irritating!
ConsSensitive skin types should definitely avoid this. It stings a lot. And for those with a lot of blemishes, this will likely be too irritating as well. But those who use this as a daily toner, what are they thinking?!
TipI want to do a chemical exfoliation once a week, so I'd dab some on a cotton pad and leave it on for less than a minute. But lately, I've been too lazy and it's just too irritating, so I've been doing other things instead.

The barrier is broken, so I don't use it on my cheeks, but I use it on my forehead and nose area about twice a week with a skin pack. This has greatly reduced the skin texture issues and clogged pores that I had before.
ConsThere are no downsides. I want to keep purchasing it when it's on sale.

ConsAlthough it's said to be less irritating, it still feels a bit irritating. After using it, my skin peeled off excessively, like an onion skin, and my nose area was in chaos. I didn't use it frequently and thought I had left enough time in between, but...
TipUse only in targeted areas

If I don't pay a little attention to my sensitive skin, acne just pops up, so I've even tried acne pads and skin like Sukin and Innisfree, but while they do help with acne, my skin just feels... gross. It feels really harsh, but this one suppresses acne without damaging the skin texture. I gave it to my menopausal sister who has facial flushing and sensitive skin, and her flushing and rough skin completely improved. She loves it as her holy grail product. I'm glad it helped, too. I have a middle school daughter with acne-prone skin, and she's satisfied that it controls her acne without damaging her skin.
ConsI wish there was a larger size available. The previous pump version was more convenient, but that's no longer available, which is a shame. I wish the price was a bit lower.
TipFor acne and sensitive skin, I use this toner in the morning, and just lightly apply an eye cream. In the evening, I use the toner and an oatmeal nourishing cream - that's it. I'd like to use more functional skincare products, but that's too much for me. The two products in the evening work perfectly together.

I bought this product because I had a lot of pimples, and I'm on my third bottle now. It seems gentle and good, and my husband uses it too.
ConsIf you don't control the amount properly, the essence can become white and frothy, but it does help with enlarged pores and soothe the skin.
TipKeeping it in the fridge and applying it to the blemished areas before bed seems to help reduce redness a bit.

However, the texture is smooth and easy to apply.
ConsWhen I used this toner, the already problematic areas on my skin became even more red and irritated. It was very stinging. I think this would be great for those with dry or resilient skin, but for those with sensitive skin like mine, I absolutely do not recommend using it. I felt it was highly irritating to my skin.
