iUNIK Rose Galactomyces Essential Toner 29 ingredients
I really hate the smell of it, it’s kind of irritating, it smells a bit like medicine or hospitals with rose undertones🙈. I haven’t noticed any change on my skin while using it. Definitely not calming or soothing I would say even a little bit irritating - but maybe it is just the smell that triggers me. I wouldn’t buy it again.

I bought this product based on one website that said it was FA-safe (however, now in here I see that it has Arginine, which is not a FA-safe ingredient).

I've been using this for over 2 months now am and pm, and im not sure if it's this product only or this product in combination with others in my routine, but since adding it to my routine i've noticed a significant decrease in acnes showing up. Keeps my skin moisturized until end of the day without it being overly greasy. Will repurchase.
