Love the consistency and it delivers with hydration - was worried about the lavender scent but no irritation at all and I’ll be buying the bigger bottle next time. It’s a skincare staple for me now After cleansing, apply an appropriate amount of toner onto a cotton pad or into the palm of your hands. Apply onto the face and gently pat for better absorption.

They both have similar textures and I’d say are equally hydrating. The Klairs feels more soothing and I’d recommend that if you have sensitive skin. If you want more brightening/skin smoothing benefits go with the Haruharu, but honestly both are great.BUT if alcohol is still a concern, Haruharu also has an alcohol-free version! 🤔 Weaker preservative = shorter shelf life I saw review of this product online and decided to have a try myself . This toner is gentle to skin with a bit of lavender smell which I like as it’s not overpowering. After use of the product my skin feels healthy , plump . I think it even helps with some acne . Would recommend anyone to at least try it for their selves.

Oh, that one sounds nice. I like the klairs one, so I have a feeling this would work for me as well.

The purpose of a hydrating toner is to prep the skin for further product absorption, so it should be the first product applied after cleansing, twice a day. Natural finish with no shine or oiliness. Skin has that hydrated dewiness, similar to when you’ve just finished sheet masking. Mentioned this in the ingredients analysis earlier and it’s also clearly labeled on the bottle that it has a shelf life of 6 months after opening. If you don’t have a skincare fridge you’ll definitely want to be generous with using this!
