Panthenol is a common ingredient that helps hydrate and soothe the skin. It can be found naturally in our skin and hair.

Good but not great
Smells lovely and is gentle, but the spray bottle releases big droplets instead of a fine mist, so it doesn't offer as much hydration as it ought to. If Kopari redesigned the sprayer, it could potentially be a 4-star product, but as it is, it's just meh.

If you have oily skin this is a great toner. It didn't feel moisturizing enough for me, so I just use it on summer days. I won't be repurchasing but just for that exact reason, otherwise it's a great product.
Absorbs somewhat quickly into the skin, leaving a refreshing sensation. Has no smell.

It didn't do anything to my skin, not sure what differentiates it from regular water... it doesn't even spread very well. It leaves a bit of a nice cool wet feeling and that's about it, so if you want centella or a nice toner probably just buy something else that's actually worth your money
