Earl Grey Dream
I’ve been looking for skincare that have natural tea scents for years, found it by accident and so pleasantly surprised!! Has bergamot so if you’re sensitive to citrus oils I would stay away, but it smells like my earl grey dreams!!! Deep herbal scents yet floral too.I’ve been eyeing this toner for a long time since it has popularized kbeauty community and the klog but didn’t buy it recently until it was on sale. So glad I bought this large bottle bc I look forward to using it both day and night. Pleasant to use, not sticky, but feels more substantial that other watery toners. Keeps my skin from being greasy, my skin texture is smoother, softer, brighter, less breakouts. Can’t say enough, it has shot straight towards the top of my holy grails and forever repurchases, such a good price too.

Favorite Toner
I’ve been pulled into the Ashley Mixon universe and bought this because of her.I love it! I have dry, sensitive and gracefully aging skin. I use this as my first toner and follow with the Auna heartleaf. Oh my gosh my skin looks better than it has in years! These are my only two toners for now and my skin drinks them up. I especially like using this on a cotton pad the mornings after I do tretinoin. I literally gave this as Christmas gifts to my friends along with the Anua. That’s how much I love it.There is a little scent (which I love) but you can’t smell it on your face as it dissipates quickly. This is a thin toner with no actives so it’s fine to use with one active or with retinol/tret. Also I got the small bottle and use it twice a day, it is lasting me a good few months.Highly recommend!

Adore!
This product is soo good for healing and restoring your skin elasticity and hydration! It’s so smooth and has improved overall skin texture. However, it does smell strongly like fruit loops!!! So if you’re sensitive to fragrance definitely don’t get this.

Love this toner but price doubled
Love this toner!! Just finished my first bottle and came to order more only to find out that the price went from $11 to $25! That’s more than doubled in price. Will be ordering from the website where it’s still $11.

This is my go-to toner. I’m on my second bottle. It’s so hydrating and my skin looks great afterwards. Love the mild scent too.

Tried and true.
I’ve been using this toner for several years as the first step after cleansing. I’ve occasionally substituted with other toners, usually ones I got as samples but always come back to this. I have sensitive, used to be very oily, but is now dry skin that can still break out if I use the wrong product. Acwell is a gentle, affordable, quality, Korean skincare line that’s never let me down.

A staple in my routine
I see a noticeable difference in the brightness of my skin when I use this! And I don’t mean how bright my skin looks when I apply it, but how bright my skin stays when I use it regularly. It’s a good cleansing, brightening toner that doesn’t exfoliate intensely like AHA & BHA toners.

Best PH Toner!
I’ve repurchased this toner 4x now. It’s my first step in my skin care routine and never fails to calm my sensitive skin. It’s moisturizing and leaves a pleasant feeling to your face. My favorite korean skincare toner!

Caused itchy eyes.
One of my favorite skin care influencers swears by this so I was excited to try.I have very sensitive skin and it didn’t bother me at all. I actually enjoyed the product. BUT, my eyes were irrationally itchy. I was having to change my contacts MULTIPLE times a day. And I am very careful about not getting product too close to my eyes – so it definitely wasn’t user error on my part.However, my mom used the product and loved it.I would say it’s great, but if you have sensitive eyes in any way, steer clear!

LOVE this product…BUT
LOVE this product…BUT I really wish the bottle was more sturdy. The first time I ordered – the bottle was damaged slightly in shipping and so some of the product leaked. The second time I ordered, it arrived intact, but I accidentally knocked the essentially full bottle off my bathroom counter with my elbow (closed mind you) and the super thin plastic bottle basically shattered and I lost all of the product. This is the first time I’ve had that happen with a product and I’ve done it before with other skincare items. I’d love to order again because I find this toner very calming and definitely reduces my redness, I notice not having it in my routine. But the packaging makes me hesitate 🙁

LOVE this toner.
I use so many toners, like 7 or 8 every day, and this one is my favorite. I’ve gone through an entire bottle and repurchased my second already. It feels great on your skin, which I love. It feels very high quality and refreshing. It’s a great toner to layer with. I’m honestly not entirely sure what it does for my skin, as I started using it at the same time I introduced several other skincare products, but the way it feels on my face enhances my morning and night routine enough that I don’t even care if it helps or not.

I loveeee this product. I use it every day in morning and evening as the first step of my routine. Very layerable and light weight. I would say it lasted like a month and a half to two months with 2x daily use. I use more than 1 product to help with brightening dark marks, but I do think this toner helps with reducing that. Did not break me out either :)My Skin type: I have combo skin with sebaceous filaments and occasional white heads; I also get red marks/hyperpigmentation easily.Texture: Super lightweight and almost wateryScent: herbal and fresh, medium strength

There BESTEST toner
I have been using this toner for over a year. I usually get it elsewhere in the larger size. When I saw that it was on sale here I jumped to buy one as my back up. This is a perfect layering toner or to use alone. A few layers on your skin and you’re guaranteed to feel and see the difference.

Use this 2x a day everyday
I follow Ashley mixon’s skincare method and this is one of her tried and true products. I have no idea if it works but I use it 2x a day every day and just opened a new bottle. I love the way it feels on my skin and it’s a great addition to my skincare regimen.

Please do yourself a favor and purchase this!!
Every cleanser or toner i’ve ever used has stripped my skin and made it very tight and uncomfortable, especially after washing, but this toner is a holy grail. my skin feels so soft and moisturized after using this. I can visibly SEE the moisture soak into my skin. Not only but it has evened my skin tone so much. It leaves my skin feeling VERY hydrated and smooth, and isn’t greasy or sticky at all. As someone who struggles with severe hormonal acne and (slight but very noticeable scaring), it’s very difficult to find products that don’t irritate or worsen my skin. This product however, is a must.Edit:i’ve been using this product since April 10th (now December 28th), and i still believe it is an incredible product. it leaves my skin so smooth and moisturized. A good tip is to just pour it straight into your hand instead of using a cotton pad, it goes on so much better and you don’t waste nearly as much product. It also helps to do two layers of this toner, my skin has never been happier since i started using this!

If you have dry skin, don’t be scared!
I purchased this toner after a referral from a friend. I was hesitant bc it says cleansing and I was nervous it might make my already dry skin worse. But let me tell you it has quickly become not only a fav product, but also my fav part of my skincare routine! It smells heavenly, it has a watery consistency but on the skin it slips just like a serum, and my skin drinks it up! I recently started tretinoin and I needed a few extra products to keep me hydrated and THIS one is by far my favorite! Enough so that I will be purchasing some of the other products from this line as well. Worth every penny!

Love it night and day
I’m really happy with this – it’s very mild and I actually feel like it does something. No irritation or sensation at all. Slightly moisturizing while still making my skin feel nice and clean. Since using this after cleanser I notice a huge difference in my skin and it surprises me that such a simple product reallt makes or breaks a skin routine. I definitely think it’s worth trying, I can’t think of what’s not to love.

my dry sensitive skin loves it
I haven’t used toners since high school since I run dry and don’t need my skin to be stripped or clean anymore than necessary. however my friend swore that I needed to try it and im glad I did! its actually extremely calming to the skin and redness, makes your skin look clean, supple, and glowy

I really enjoy using this licorice cleansing Toner. Actually put it in a spray bottle and spray it all over my face after I’ve washed and cleaned my face and it feels very refreshing and smells very nice. I feel like it definitely helps lock in the moisture. It’s a favorite of mine.

Licorice ph balance cleansing toner
Very good toner. No, it does not have a strong licorice smell to it. It’s very good to use after cleansing your face. My face does not feel dry or tight, it feels very moisturized, extra clean, and soft. I bought two bottles on sale and will definitely continue using it. If you haven’t tried it yet, what are you waiting for? I really like the fact that a lot of natural products are in this toner also.

Yes!! This stuff is really good!! And I’ve tried many!
I love this stuff for those nights I don’t feel like washing my face and doing the whole 7 layer thing (I don’t wear face makeup, so it’s just dust & pollution I need off my face at night). I only used it a couple times so far, because I already have other products to finish, but each morning I definitely have a glow after using this the night before.I should also note that I have sensitive skin that can be picky as far as clogged pores, and so far I’ve had no side effects showing my pores might clog from this. However, it’s also possible I haven’t used it long enough to produce that effect. I will certainly update this review if anything negative surfaces.So yes, I definitely recommend this toner to anyone wanting soft plump skin that glows. And I recommend it for acne prone skin since it hasn’t led to acne for me yet (but again, I’ll update if that changes!). GO GET YOUR GLOW ON!!

Do not sleep on this toner
It always surprises me to hear myself wax poetic about a toner — the most divisive step in the face protocol — but Acwell’s Licorice PH balancing toner is potentially the heaviest hitter in my product arsenal. It hits way outside its weight class and is anything but “just a toner.” I have good skin at 50 but haven’t always. My barrier used to be weak and I struggled with adult acne into my 30s. I wish this had been around then. It’s nurturing and moisturizing without being heavy. It preps and imparts glow. If you have good skin and want to keep it, this is your friend. If you are struggling with issues and need to repair your barrier, this is your best friend. I discovered this five years ago and I haven’t been without it since. I use it immediately after cleansing and before actives or moisturizers morning and night on my combo skin that also sees Tretinoin nightly. My acne-prone teen has recently added it to his routine and is seeing improvement. Licorice root is gold for balancing and anti-inflammatory properties, and Acwell has mastered a formula here. That it’s also reasonably priced is the cherry on this fantastic sundae.
