Pros
- Lightweight, colourless and watery lotion that absorbs fast
- Leaves skin soft and supple right after
- Fragrance-free, alcohol-free
- Readily available at drugstores
- Refill packs available
Cons
- Although it absorbs fast, there will be an immediate "sticky" feeling after application. This will go away eventually.
- No pump or applicator
- Hydration doesn't last all day
- Refill packs aren't easy to find in Singapore's drugstores
Personal thoughts
- I wouldn't say this is the best toner around but it does a decent job and I've been using this for a couple of years.
- My skin is soft and supple right after; a great kick-start to my skincare regime.
- Hydrating effect isn't as promising as advertised. For me this doesn't last past mid-day. I'll need a good moisturiser to complement.
- I understand there are 3 versions of lotion for different skin types; Regular (this review) for dry/normal skin, Light for oily/combi skin, Premium (slightly pricier) for very dry skin.
- "Sticky" feeling after application isn't a big issue here. It will go away pretty fast. I cup my face with my palms after application and this helps to press the product in better :)
- Till I find a more lasting and hydrating toner at comparable price point, this is a product worth mentioning!
