it is unscented, hydrating and doesn't have any actives, so it's good to use with retinol and vitamin c!

✦ Price: On the k-beauty expensive side but it has great quality so I can't complain. No other toner can be compared to this, haven't found anything similar so I still use it to this day.
✦ Lasts 8-12 months.
