Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.
So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.
You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. Talk about multi-purpose! If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!

Heart Leaf is rich in flavonoids such as quercetin, apigenin, and more. It also contains polysaccharides, the most common type of carbs in food.

Studies show decanoyl acetaldehyde, a component of Heart Leaf oil, is effective at killing bacteria.

Hydrated skin improves your skin barrier; Your skin barrier helps protect against irritants and bacteria.
Glycerin has also been found to have antimicrobial and antiviral properties. Due to these properties, glycerin is often used in wound and burn treatments.
In cosmetics, glycerin is usually derived from plants such as soybean or palm. However, it can also be sourced from animals, such as tallow or animal fat.
This ingredient is organic, colorless, odorless, and non-toxic.

i'm currently trying out the products from heynature, isoi and baegayul from korea and i'll be doing the reviews on these products after finishing them all up but let's go back to this toner. i'm glad that it's a toner mist and it's good for spraying the toner in between steps for better absorbtion. i gotta say, that this toner is nothing special... like, it's good that it has mugwort and shit but there really isn't anything outstanding about the texture, formulation of the overall toner and is similar to the toners i have in my collection. the sheet mask and clay mask from heynature on the other hand are SO much better and have even become staples in my routines. it didn't sooth, it didn't hydrate, just made me spend money on water in a spray bottle. honestly, just try it out urself but imo it's basic, similar to any other watery toner and is just as good as a facial thermal water mist - having water in a spray bottles and spraying it on ur face does the same job. i love u heynature, but c'mon. i know u can do better...

Holy Grail
I have purchased so many bottles of this. I have sensitive, eczema-prone, combination skin. I also tend to get clogged pores easily and I am currently working on healing my skin barrier. This product is something I use everyday and cannot recommend it enough. After trying so many things and feeling so helpless about my skin, it was the first product that actually made me feel like it would get better. I love it and will never stop purchasing it!

Did not live up with the hype I've seen all over TikTok.
I wanted to love it as I heard great things about it for acne prone skin, but it literally did nothing to me even when i used it for four months (2 bottles).
Once I stopped using it, my skin became better.

Very good at targeting redness and irritations. Whenever my skin feels irritated, either from treatments or using products with Tretinoin and Hydroquinone, or is experiencing Rosacea flare-ups, applying one or more layers of this toner noticeably reduces redness - sometimes it even disappears completely, depending on the severity.
I usually am cautios with hyped products, they tend to set you up for disappointment with too high expectations. That's a real possibility here, given all the buzz. Yet, I would say it works for calming and soothing skin or for people with sensitive skin (if you're not sensitive to one of its ingredients). Moreover, it ticks all the boxes for being cruelty-free, vegan, etc., which is a huge plus.
If your skin is generally trouble-free, it will not be a game-changer. For those looking for extra hydration, layering this toner or trying Anua's Birch Moisture Boosting Toner could be an option. Given its specific use for me, I probably won't buy a regular-sized bottle anymore but will keep a small one on hand in case my skin acts up. I'm rating it 5 stars because it lives up to its promise of soothing my sensitive skin effectively.
