Toners & Essences
Toner and essence are the two most "Korean" steps of the routine, often confused but complementary. The toner rebalances skin after cleansing and brings a first layer of hydration; the essence, more concentrated, lays down a layer of actives that prepares the absorption of the next products. In Korea they are pressed in with the hands or patted, never with a cotton pad that rubs.
How to choose
Sensitive skin or redness: a soothing toner with heartleaf or centella. Oily skin or visible pores: a gentle exfoliating pad two to three times a week. Dry or dull skin: a fermented or snail mucin essence that hydrates without a greasy film. Pre-soaked pad formats simplify the step for anyone short on time.
Place in the routine
After cleansing and before serums and ampoules. For reactive skin, find our gentlest formulas in the sensitive skin selection, and our moisturisers to seal everything in.
