About Korean Face Toners
Korean face toners are formulated to do more than just refresh the skin. They help restore pH balance, provide hydration, prepare the skin for serums and moisturizers, and sometimes deliver targeted benefits like brightening, soothing, or gentle exfoliation. Popular options include heartleaf and centella-based calming toners, hyaluronic acid hydration boosters, and exfoliating chemical toners with mild acids.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use toner on sensitive skin?
Yes — choose alcohol-free or calming toners with soothing ingredients like centella, aloe, or heartleaf.
Do I need toner if I already use essence or serum?
Toners prep the skin, enhance absorption, and provide extra hydration — they complement serums and essences rather than replace them.
How often should I use a Korean toner?
Most toners can be used twice daily. Exfoliating toners should be used according to instructions, usually 2–3 times per week.
