Core Ingredients
-
Niacinamide (2% - Vitamin B3): Multitasking vitamin B3 derivative for brightening, regulating sebum production, reducing pore appearance, supporting barrier function, and reducing irritation.

-
Glycerin (3-5%): Powerful humectant that draws moisture into skin, supports barrier function, protects against irritation, and provides immediate hydration and comfort.
-
Ceramide NP: Skin-identical lipid that reinforces the barrier to prevent moisture loss, supports barrier repair, and improves barrier integrity and resilience.
-
Panthenol & Allantoin: Soothing humectants that support healing, reduce irritation, calm inflammation, promote skin repair, and provide comfort to irritated areas.
-
Botanical Extracts (Centella Asiatica/Cica, Licorice Root, Chamomile, Green Tea, Witch Hazel, Rosemary, Oat Kernel, Anise Fruit, Alchemilla, Amaranthus, Olive Leaf, Veronica, Peppermint, Artichoke, Sambucus, Scutellaria, Polygonum, etc.): Comprehensive botanical blend providing antioxidant, calming, anti-inflammatory, brightening, acne-fighting, and protective benefits.

Important Notes
-
Patch Test Recommended: Especially if you have ultra-sensitive skin, known allergies, or are using multiple active ingredients (retinoids, acids, vitamin C).
-
Use Sparingly on Oily/Combination Skin: Because of its richer milky texture, using excessive amounts may feel heavy or greasy. Apply 3-4 pumps maximum; some oily-skin users report skin can "turn greasy" if overapplied. Consider using half the amount or reserving for nighttime on combination skin.
-
Not Replacement for SPF: Always follow with broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen during daytime routines—this toner hydrates and supports skin but does not provide UV protection.
-
Check Formula Version: Some online discussion suggests older or alternate versions may have minor ingredient differences. If you have fungal-acne concerns or known sensitivities to specific ingredients, check current bottle listing and ingredient list for specific concerns about amino acids or other components.
-
Vegan & Cruelty-Free: This product is vegan, cruelty-free, reef-safe, and made in South Korea to rigorous K-beauty standards.
-
Store Properly: Keep out of direct sunlight and store at room temperature to maintain ingredient stability and formula efficacy over time.
Step 1 - Cleanse & Prepare: Cleanse your face with a gentle cleanser and pat completely dry or leave lightly damp (damp skin enhances absorption while maintaining formula potency).
Step 2 - Dispense Appropriate Amount: Dispense 3-4 pumps (approximately dime-sized amount) onto your palms or a cotton pad. For oily/combination skin, use 2-3 pumps maximum to avoid excess heaviness.
Step 3 - Application Method (Choose One): Option A: Apply by gently pressing into your face and neck using fingertips, working upward and outward. Option B: Apply using a cotton pad, gently swiping across face for more control and even distribution. Option C: Pat lightly between palms and press into skin for enhanced absorption.
Step 4 - Allow Absorption: Let it absorb naturally for 30-60 seconds before proceeding to next skincare step. The milky texture should sink into skin without leaving visible residue.
Step 5 - Layer Subsequent Products: Follow with your usual serum, essence, eye cream, or moisturizer. This toner layers beautifully with other products and enhances their absorption.
For Dry & Combination Skin: Layer twice for extra hydration—apply first layer, allow absorption, then apply second layer before proceeding with serums and creams.
For Oily Skin: Use light application once, or apply half amount once. Can use as an all-in-one hydrator, allowing full absorption before proceeding with rest of routine.
Frequency: Use morning and night as part of your daily skincare routine for best continuous hydration and brightening results. Consistent twice-daily use ensures optimal benefits.
