This review was written by a Hwahae Trial Reviewer who received the product for free and evaluated it with a sense of representing Hwahae. The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.Pros- Formulation: A fluid-like formulation - Viscosity: Very lightweight - Moisture: Provides a good sense of moisture when used as a pack - Other features: Takes a little time to absorb. Almost no oily feel. Recommended for oily/normal/combination skin types. Strongly recommended as a pack product for dry/dehydrated oily skin. (The author used it as a cleansing water product from 2023 to early 2024, and has been using it as a pack since mid-2024)
Cons1. It is not recommended to use the toner for dry/quickly drying oily skin. The formulation is similar to water and the product is quite lightweight, so using the toner alone may not be sufficient to provide enough moisture. Especially for quickly drying oily skin, the toner may not be able to properly absorb the oil when used alone. If you want to use a toner, it is recommended to use it together with the moisture serum from the same line 1 or use a product with a bit more moisture. 2. It is not recommended for extremely sensitive skin/compromised skin barrier. For people with very sensitive skin or a completely compromised skin barrier, this product may feel a bit irritating. While the product is generally mild and the scent is not overly bothersome, like any cosmetic product, if the skin is not ready to accept the product, it may potentially be harmful. It is recommended to look for a gentler product. For those with extremely sensitive skin, it is recommended to use the product as a mask.
TipI use the No. 1 toner pad along with the serum. As you can see in the photo, I pre-moisturize the cotton pad and then place one sheet each on my chin, nose, and forehead when using it. This has a calming effect, and my skin becomes shiny and radiant like a hard-boiled egg in the morning. (Of course, you need to do this consistently for at least 2-3 weeks.) I've been following this routine for 5 months now, and even without doing heavy makeup, my skin has become of a higher quality than when I was wearing makeup.

The finish was refreshing, yet it felt moisturized, and I didn't get any additional breakouts. The absorption and smoothing effect is truly amazing. It's also a great toner for layering. The slight cooling sensation was nice as well!!
ConsWhile there aren't any major issues, I don't seem to have seen much effect in terms of reducing oil/grease.

Large capacity 3. Non-irritating to the skin 4. Non-greasy
Cons1. It seems that quite a lot is wasted when used in the original container. (It's fine to purchase DIY pads from Daiso and use them as toner pads) 2. There is absolutely no fragrance

Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsMy skin is quite sensitive, so I carefully check the ingredients before using a product. I'm very satisfied with this product and have been repurchasing it. When I first used this product, my skin was in a bad condition, but thanks to the Houttuynia cordata, the heat and redness in my skin definitely calmed down and my skin tone became more balanced. It's a lightweight, watery type, so it's great to use as a cleansing toner. It absorbs without any stickiness, so it's suitable to use year-round. Recommended for: Those who want to gently refine their skin texture before makeup Those looking for a product that can quickly soothe irritated skin Those with sensitive/combination skin seeking a gentle toner Not recommended for: Those wanting a highly moisturizing toner (this one has a light, clear feel)
ConsThe regular price is a bit expensive, so I tend to stock up when it's on sale at Olive Young. When purchased on sale, it's quite reasonable in the range of around 10,000 won. These days, they often have the main product plus refill options, so you may want to check that out as well!
TipThe full-size product + refill product comes in a packaging that looks like an envelope, so it's inconvenient to just use it as is. If you buy an empty bottle from Daiso and transfer the product into it, it will be much more convenient and hygienic to use.

I have a rather dry skin type with some lack of moisture, but I don't tend to break out much. The absorption is not too bad, and it does provide some hydration, but it's not quite ㅠ.ㅠ for me.
ConsPersonally, I don't want to recommend this toner to people with sensitive skin. My skin isn't particularly sensitive, but every time I use this toner, my skin feels hot and irritated. Of course, everyone's skin is different, but it seems there are some ingredients in this toner that just don't agree with my skin.

I've been continuously using this product as it seems fresh and neutral. The biggest advantage is that it is oil-free and only provides hydration. I'm on my third bottle.
ConsIt's quite ordinary and there's nothing particularly disappointing. Compared to toners, the price is a bit expensive...?
