I don&#39;t really like this toner. It didn&#39;t provide any hydration nor felt moisturizing. I went and built it up to 3 layers and it became very sticky. After a couple of minutes it went away, but I didn&#39;t feel the face comfortable. Also, the next day some small whiteheads had developed around my mouth area. I think there are better toners out there.

Not ideal for oily skin types (especially in hot humid weather).

This sunscreen checks all the boxes for me:

Provides long lasting moisture.
Dewy finish, but not tacky.
It doesn’t pill.
It doesn’t sting the eyes.
No whitecast.
Most suitable for normal to dry skin types, combo skin in winter, acne prone and sensitive skin.
Creates a beautiful base for makeup.
Free of alcohol, fragrance and essential oils.
Vegan and cruelty-free.

My skin type: oily dehydrated and acne prone.

This is my HG hydrating toner! It deeply hydrates the skin and it layers so well without becoming sticky. I can do up to 6 layers of it. Improves my skin texture and smooths out flakes. Not only it doesn&#39;t break me out, but contributes in keeping my skin blemish free. It feels soothing and reduces redness.
Layers well with other skincare and sunscreen. Doesn&#39;t contain alcohol, fragrance or EOs.

Not hydrating/moisturizing for those experiencing dryness.

I was expecting this to become a Holy Grail because of all the hype, but it didn’t make the cut for me. Don’t get me wrong, this is still a really good product and I enjoy using it. It only has one star ingredient (mugwort) which offers antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits that make it perfect for sensitive and irritated skin. It does exactly the things it is targeted for: relieves irritation, calms down the skin and reduces redness. What I really loved about it is its effects on my acne. It’s been some time since I broke out and this aids so much in healing the existing ones faster! The hydrating power is the only thing that fell short for me, but those with oily and combination skin, especially in humid weather, would actually find it enough hydrating.

To summarize:

• Lightweight and absorbs well with zero stickiness.
• Great for all skin types, but most suited for oily, combo, sensitive and acne prone skin (also those with rosacea).
• Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits.
• Targets redness and feels calming.
• Layers well with other skincare.
• Free of alcohol, fragrance & essential oils.
• Vegan.


This is a hydrating toner formulated with 68% Wild Yam Root Extract which is used in skincare for moisturizing dry skin, reducing flaking and restoring suppleness. Other moisturizing agents are Glycerin and 5 different types of Hyaluronic acid. Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5) is included for its anti-inflammatory and skin protecting properties. It also contains Centella Asiatica Leaf Water to soothe and calm irritated skin.

I was impressed with the effect of this toner on my skin since the very first time that I used it. There is an immediate plumping of the skin which I absolutely love and it appears very bouncy. As someone with oily (dehydrated) skin, I have really big pores on my cheeks. Some of them have lost their shape due to acne and my habit of picking the skin. Because of the plumping effect the pores look much better and firmer. They don’t look saggy and the skin looks like it has gained back its elasticity.

To summarize:

• Viscous consistency.
• Long lasting hydrating power.
• Plumps the skin and fine lines.
• Pores look firmer.
• Great for all skin types, but most suited for sensitive, combination to dry skin types and oily skin in winter.
• Great for those who'd like to restore the skin barrier.
• Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits.
• Feels calming.
• Layers well with other skincare.
• Free of alcohol, fragrance & essential oils.
• Vegan.
