Dry/Resilient

This fragrance-free essence feels like the right drink for dry, dehydrated skin! All because of the skin-plumping ingredients like Glycerin, Sodium Hyaluronate, Hydrolyzed Collagen & Zostera Marina extract that boosts skin luminosity! It has the right viscosity, not too 'thick', that it is absorbed well. It feels soothing & silky that's why every application is a joy! No wonder this is well-loved! I get bouncy, balanced & moisturized skin with just 2 layers! With my busy schedule these past few days, I have a lot of shorter routines than usual & this essence makes a lot of difference! Glowy & luminous skin still!

Their main ingredient is the Red Onion Bulb extract(30-40x richer in pytho-nutrients flavonoid), known to improve scars & with antimicrobial & antifungal properties. Also included is the NoSCalm complex( Sodium heparin, Allantoin, Panthenol & Heartleaf Houttuynia) to calm & strengthen the skin barrier. Essence Toner (onion b.extract758,000 ppm & 5000ppm NoSCalm) is probably my fave from the 3! Feels soothing & velvety, skin feels refined after each use! 3-4 skins for me. Non-tacky, lightweight & delivers the right hydration when I layer. My skin is loving this! The light purple color is all-natural too. Another good essence /toner for masking!

Ampule mist from @klairs.global, provided by @wishtrend @wishtrendstory This is a Green Tea Water-based mist, formulated with rice, cucumbers, okra, Mugwort & moisture-locking Trehalose said to be effective for intensive hydration and antioxidant care. The fine mist gives off an even application! I either use this as my toner or as one of my all-day misting buddies. The texture is very light, has no fragrance but sufficiently hydrates/moisturizes my combo skin! It feels like an essence & serum in one! I use 2-3 spritz & it's enough. I also spritz some more before my Hyaluronic Acid-based serum. Absorption is ok. Keeping this in the fridge elevates the refreshing feel. I have used this as a makeup setter & it does a good job too. It leaves a subtle dewy effect. If you have sensitive skin then this will suit you as the ingredients are good. I would have preferred a tiny bit of scent just for the sensorial experience. It doesn't smell anything at all. I guess some people would like it this way but as for me who loves perfumes, I feel like I'm just spraying water when I use this!๐Ÿ˜ But it's not a deal-breaker for me. YMMV

Dry/Resilient

Mugwort in Korea is considered as a healing herb that is great for its anti-bacterial, anti fungal & skin protective properties. With its soothing & anti-inflammatory properties, it is an easy favorite if you have dry, irritated, red skin. This essence contains only 1 ingredient, ๐Ÿ’ฏ % Mugwort Essence! Using the slow release extraction method to maximize the nutrients in the concentrate. This became one of the most sought after essence especially with all the mask wearing! Simply because it calms the skin after a long day with the mask. I know because this is what I reach for together with the mask & cream whenever I come back with an itchy, hot, irritated skin! The soothing effect is just so amazing! A watery essence with a tiny bit of slip that is easily absorbed & very lightweight, hydrating & moisturizing too! This can also be used as a facial & feminine mist(though I haven't tried it yet) The light herbal, earthy scent is relaxing for me too. My skin is just happy whenever I have this, calmed, supple & plump! As long as we are going to wear the mask, this will be a staple for me! Is it an HG? You betcha!

This contains Aloe Vera-72.21%, Artemisia extract 15%, oat kernel extract 5% & other botanical fermented extracts. Also contains Gluconolactone, a PHA, a mild exfoliant great for sensitive skin! This is one of my toner in rotation. This toner is slightly viscous with a nice slip. It has a prominent flower scent that is not synthetic at all. I'm not 'scentsitive' so I'm not bothered, it does dissipate quickly. It is absorbed well, deep moisturizing & no tacky feeling nor feels heavy! I use it both for Am and PM routine especially when my skin feels dry & needs nourishment! Having dry/dehydrated skin, I appreciate this toner as my skin feels immediately hydrated with just 2 skins, but I do use up to 3. I know this is one of their most popular products & I can clearly feel why!

When we think of mucin in the Skincare world we always associate it with the Snails & some are not really into it. Fret no more as this is Non-Snail. Made of 68% Wild Yam extract (texture is similar to the Snail), Butylene Glycol, Glycerin, Panthenol, Arginine, Sodium Hyaluronate, HA and Cica Been using this mainly as my Pm toner for a month now but this is equally good in the Am especially if I wake up with tight, dry skin. This has a viscous texture, with no scent at all. I do 2-3 skins, sinks well with no tackiness! As the weather is colder here, I appreciate this better as it supplies the hydration that my skin needs! It is soothing too! After properly layering my skin is plump and yes moisturized! I had some irritations last week, dry, itchy & bumpy and this had helped subside that pesky thing! Of course, this works even better if used together with the serum & the 730 creams! This is the only item in my stash that I straight up used without patch testing because I know how safe it is! I also love using this as a midday 're-fresher', just slathering it to add extra hydration! If you have reactive skin or on days when your skin is irritated then this is a great alternative, it is alcohol, fragrance & essential oil FREE! Overall a great toner that is safe for all skin types.

I always have an essence in my routine, my dry skin is dependent on this to step up my hydration. It made a huge difference! Others think it's not necessary but hey you know your skin better than anyone else! This essence has made my skin feel hydrated & moisturized and there is certainly a difference from the other essences I've used. It's actually very similar to my 1st essence โžก๏ธMissha'S FTE, which got me hooked on essences ! The ingredients are more geared towards anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and the fermented extracts are rich in antioxidants! So it naturally soothes & calms irritated skin. I'm not acne prone so I cannot comment on that. But I do get irritations especially now when I wear face mask & I've noticed there's hardly any or it subsides faster! This doesn't have any scent, watery with a tiny slip. I apply 2-3 skins, usually this comes 1st before my toner.(if my toner is viscous than this) And yes I do love it! Does it boost my serums?... probably does! All I know is my skin is supple, smooth & plump as soon as I apply this! I want a bigger bottle!!

Dry/Resilient

This Watery toner is formulated with 47.5% organic Korean green tea(harvested in Hadong SK- famous for its Green Tea field!), 3% Chelidonium majus extract to enhance skin renewal and protect skin's moisture barrier. Other ingredients : Panthenol, Allantoin, Sodium Hyaluronate, Glycerin Since the texture is very lightweight, layering this up to 3x satisfies the hydration that my skin craves! It soothes my skin & it does have a slight cooling effect. It was so easy to add this to my routine! Doesn't leave any tackiness too! It's a fuzz-free toner, it helps balance my skin & since Green Tea is rich in Catechins, which are antioxidants (we all love antioxidants! ) Overall it helps my skin to be healthy, balanced, and hydrates it well! *Watch how I tested the moisture level of my skin with just 2 layers! (video posted on my Instagram account - @lotsskinglow) If you have sensitive or irritated skin, this is a good toner to help it recover. I can't think of any cons for this lovely toner. ๐Ÿ’š

Essence Toner- first off, this is my perfect toner for hot summer days when skin is flushed! I have transferred this in a spray bottle & been carrying it around in my pocket! ๐Ÿ˜ It has a light slip but still feels lightweight & absorbs well! Aside from the star ingredients-Cica & Aloe, they have used mineral water instead of a regular one. It means the active ingredients can pass through more effectively to our skin because the molecular structure of the mineral water is smaller. Hence I can instantly feel the hydration, soothing & is quite refreshing! Yes, it is a fave right from the first application! ๐Ÿ’— Must try!

a watery & refreshing toner that is awesome for summer! I would transfer some of this in a spray bottle too for a good 'misting'. It hydrates well too, I use 2-3 layers. Oh, it's great for toner masking too! Allantoin 5 types of Hyaluronic acid Panthenol Purslane extract - Rich in vitamins A, C & E plus the โ€œsuper antioxidantโ€ Glutathione
