Finished a bottle of this during early 2024, and I have to say this is a pretty nice nourishing and soothing toner. Much better than the Anua heartleaf toner imo as it offers more soothing properties and is great for my acne prone skin. I have also noticed slight redness reduction on my skin by using this but the downside is that this toner wasnโ€™t hydrating enough for me as I have dry skin.
