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 wasn’t hydrating enough for me as I have dry skin.

If you’re super duper mega oily and live in hot, humid weather, then this toner is definitely for you. It’s incredibly effective in terms of oil control. I have combination skin, and this toner really helps manage the oiliness in my T-zone.

It’s doing such a great job at oil control that even my cheeks, which aren’t oily, ended up feeling dry. Clearly, it’s really effective at controlling oil.

This brown liquid is so golden! It keeps my skin pretty matte/satin-ish all day. I live in Florida, so its always humid and hot for the most part and with my combo skin, I tend to have a shinier t-zone daily. So once I started to realize that my t-zone wasnt looking overly shiny after a few days after first use I checked the bottle again and saw that it has sebum control. Love!
