The COSRX Propolis toner is my holy grail, used year-round! I have dry skin that’s acne-prone and dehydrated and it just checks all of the boxes for me 😊.
@@aunparalleled not sure if you are talking to me or the OP, but i like the Jin Jung Sung Hybrid Face and Eye Cream or the Bonajour Green Tea Water Cream (does contain squalane and niacinamide - they do have a peptide water cream i havent tried that is lighter) the morning and the usually the Pkunkang Yul Blue Ato Cream at night or the Cos Rx Ultimate Rice Nourishing Mask followed by the Bonajour GTWC mentioned above. The PKY is pretty thick and i don't use AC, so i typically don't use it if it's hot and humid. Both the Jin Jung Sung and Cos Rx would probably be good for most skin types.
You got me into the Tiam Vita B-5 toner and I’m just head over heels in love with it! I can see how it’s easily overlooked, but wow, I’ve gone through a bottle in no time and will keep buying it because it’s just SO GOOD! Thanks, Kelly! ❤
I don't buy a new product until i've finished my existing one so this is a great video for me to learn about some popular toners! The only one i've tried on this list is the cosrx propolis, which was incredibly hydrating, soothing, and gave a real glow. It's not in my routine atm (felt a little too heavy for summer-i have combination skin and live in a hot, humid climate) but a definite purchase for winter
Been tried some of this top 10 best selling toners in yesstyle but I always back with make prem safe me relief essence toner. Thanks kelly for introducing me to make prem toner . Love it sooooo much!!❤❤❤❤❤
I've tried the Anua Heartleaf toner, TirTir Milk Skin, BoJ Ginseng Essence, and Cosrx Propolis toner. Next month I plan on trying out the I'm From Rice Toner 😊 At first I thought that the Anua toner felt like plain water and did nothing for my skin, but with consistent use I noticed it help a bit with redness! The TirTir was so moisturising and calming, BoJ made my skin healthier, and Cosrx was amazing on my acne days. I'm excited to try the rice toner 😁
the haru haru one, cosrx propolis and BOJ one are indeed good toners but after trying so many I settled down on the numbuzin calming toner. For me its just perfect and I hope they dont reformulate or discontinue it ever because it was so hard for me to find one that really suits my skin and I enjoy using every day.
I love that Round lab dokdo toner. I used up already 3 bottles and 2 more are in my stash. Thanks to you. It is perfect toner for my oily/combo bit dehydrated skin❤ also the ginseng essence I love.
Maybe try the make prem essence toner I mention at the end of the video. It's really hydrating but has the watery texture you need to soak a toner pad. You might also like the Cosrx Propolis toner for some moisture.
I tried the cosrx propolis toner and I loved it! I have combo skin but in the winter its felt dull and lifeless (I think it was dehydrated) and it did wonders, but now I don’t use it in the summer cause I live some wear humid. The haru haru wonder one increased the little pumps in my forehead I think its closed comedones but I am not sure. I’ve heard that some peoples skin doesn’t react well with fermented ingredients and maybe that the case cause I didn’t find it in my routine previously
I have tried all but Tir Tir, and I found the Anua, Round lab, Haru haru and BoJ to watery and not hydrating enough but they were very nice. I prefer the thicker ones, I loved the Cosrx propolis one the best, and also the Hada Labo but prefer the premium whitening version. But when it comes to toners I much prefer milky and creamy toners, like the Dr Ceuracle kombucha and Mary and May toners, and also the Aestura, The Lab and Aestura cream toners. The Purito oat toner and the new BoJ rice toners are two newer ones Im loving for my dry skin
I’ve tried so many toners I always come back to I’m from rice toner just enough moisture and brightens my skin with a nice glow love the rnw ceramide plus after perfect combo🤌
Missha time revolution is still my top pick!! I need to try more. Have the cosrx propolis in my closet now. Just dont like having more than 3 open at a time. My bathroom is SMALL.
Hi! I discovered toners with your videos and I'm so pleased for that so thank you 🙏🙏 round lab, cica care Rovectin, Numbuzin 1, Matcha hydrating B lab, Vegan rice milk and Wonder releaf Purito are my go to at the moment. I think i will test Dr Ceuracle, Mugwort essence, Cosrx propolis and the Pantetoine essence Manyo for this winter 😁
My favourite is JBeauty Naturie Hatomugi (Barley) Skin Conditioner. It’s a basic hydrating toner that just provides hydration nothing more but it absorbs quickly and pair with any actives .
Hii Kelly❤ I have combination skin (more oily side) What is your suggestion for me to buy Beaty of Joseon Ginseng Essence Toner or Glow Replenish Milk toner??
Wait! KELLY! Where did you get that black cat ceramic figurine behind you! I have two of them, but I have had them since I was 15 and I'm 46 now. And I found them randomly at a thrift shop!
Kelly can you do a comparison between the Anua 70+ rice toner and the I'm from one?. I have read so many reviews about people that broke out with the I'm from
I'm currently working through Peach Slices Snail toner. My favorite is either the Rovectin Lotus toner or the Rovectin Aqua Essence. The propolis toner left me looking VERY shiny like oily shiny. 👎🏻 I'm very curious to try Haru Haru.
I totally agree w/ you on the Anua toner, it dehydrates my skin to a point it irritated my skin and I have to stop using it. I would prefer the Dokdo toner waay more, they both has watery texture yet somehow the Dokdo toner is still deeply hydrating for my dry skin! PS. I'm surprised that the Kaine Kombu Balancing Ampoule Toner didn't make it to the list 😅
Beauty of Joseon's ginseng essence does nothing for my combo/dry skin. I really wanted to like it because it includes ginseng but multiple layers seem to add no hydration whatsoever. I find the earthy potato-like smell quite offputting also (thankfully it doesn't hang around for long) but will persevere and finish the bottle before finding a replacement toner.
I love the BOJ Ginseng Water Essence. I didn't care for the Cosrx Propolis. It was sticky, I didn't like the way it felt on my skin. I'm From Rice stung my skin 😢 and I could also feel it sitting on my skin. I have zero interest in TirTir. I haven't tried anything else from this list.
^Which do you think is super moisturizing and also soaks in fastest? I have dry skin. My skin didn’t like the I’m From Rice toner. And the Tir Tir… I just got and its as you said a little to thick and doesn’t feel like it soaks in all the way. For me I just want like a hydrating toner or essence that’s soaks in somewhat fast with a nice glow and works under makeup
The Im From, Haru Haru, and Cosrx propolis toners are my favorites. I’ve repurchased all three many times. I found the Round Lab toner underwhelming. I’ll use it up but will not repurchase. I want to try the BoJ and Hado Labo. I’m surprised a kombucha or green tea toner didn’t make the list.
Hi .. Can i use haruharu toner as the first layer of sandwich method before my tretinoin??? My skin has become extremely dry as i m using tretinoin. Plz suggest something My skin type is dry sensitive
I just got the Rice toner and so excited to try it out. It is interesting that I actually preferred the scented Haru Haru toner. I had not realized it was scented so I switched and used the rest on my body. But I did not reach for the unscented the way I did before. I like the Round lab for my lighter days when I want a gentle toner. Haba Labo was one of my favorites but was sad when they re-fomulated them without the Alpha Arbutin. This was a great video. Always love going over a group of products. Cheers Bella!
Hey Kelly! Thank you so much for your informative videos! I watched a few and did my care product inventory. It turned out that I had no toners and six (!🤪) serums that I just used randomly plus a couple of products that were absolutely counterindicated for my type of skin. I also didn't know what essence was and was not sure in which order to use toners, essences, and serums. Now, thanks to your reviews and recommendations I have what I need and I know how to use it correctly! 💖 🤔An idea for you: I wonder if an AI can be used to analyze and group and then rank the ingredient list for you based on 1) how natural it is, 2) how it's prone to go stale, 3) how harmful it might be long-term, 4) potentially risky or cancerogenic elements, etc., etc. I am not a specialist and don't buy lots of products, so it's not my area. But for you, as someone who understands the ingredients and the industry and educates others about it, it could be useful. Some products have super long ingredient lists, I am curious to just see how many of them are actually helpful and healthy, how many are not healthy, and how many are just useless fillers. Thank you again for all your work! Especially for your reviews of K-beauty products - they are now my favorites!
So happy to help your skin journey! ❤ For ingredients you can always run the list through inci decoder to learn more about them! I wouldn't trust AI with this task as it's actually something that needs a nuanced eye!
In my opinion the round lab birch juice toner deserves more recognition! I find it extremely hydrating and no one talks about it. Really love the rice toner too. So deeply moisturizing for my dry skin❤
Hi lovely Kelly, great video as always. I’ve been watching your videos non stop this week.. just 1 toner I can’t find your review - Celimax dual barrier creamy toner. Can you pls check it and share your review? Thanks a lot 😊
Well, just to give a different perspective on tirtir milk toner, in my case it absorbs completely, makes my skin plump and dewy (with absolute zero grease) and it is the only product that helps me to get rid of that tightness. And man, i tried almost everything you talk about on this channel, i am no beginner 😂 (my skin is super dehydrated, acne prone, sensitive, with oily t zone)
Azelaic acid might be a good start. You can try Cos de Baha 10% azelaic acid it’s about $10? It can help with both. Salicylic acid never worked for me, but azelaic acid did. Vitamin C never worked for me, but azelaic acid did. You might also try a gentle retinoid. Retinoids increase cell turnover, helping keep pores clear and shed hyperpigmented layers. Beauty of Joseon has a very gentle retinal eye serum that can be used for the whole face for about $13. And a gentle cleanser! HaruHaru and Rovectin are good options.
Some essential oils have natural antibacterial properties to them, making them excellent for treating acne skin. Tea Tree, Lavender, Eucalyptus and Peppermint are some of these types of oils. Great for the pores & honestly, it’s not strong smelling with the oils. I’m 61, & recently started using the Some by mi Toner, Serum & Cream with NO problems. ❤
So far i like the result of kombucha tea essence, I see food result after using in a single night.. I'm blown away by the great result I can't expect to be like this.. i saw my face that little bit tighten, inflamed pimple calm down and also redness significantly reduced .. i noticed that had same smell as olive oil?
Interesting the marketing definitely pointed towards the sugarcane at least the 1-2 years ago when I was looking into it, maybe they have changed their tune. The over all formula still doesn't exfoliate!
I used the dokdo toner as my *only* toner *every day* for about *two months* (I was traveling), and I found it to be “exfoliating” in the way that your skin clears up on a beach vacation 🥰 like my skin was smooth, the texture I can get on my forehead and chin were “buffed” away, I didn’t deal with the normal pore congestion/blackheads that buildup from the irregularities in my routine while traveling. It just kinda.. kept my skin clear? Didn’t help really with existing PIH, or if I didn’t wash my face I’d still wake up with an irritated blemish or two, but it helped calm and clear it up-kinda like a salt water gargle for irritated gums or something 🤷🏽♀️ idk, but I used up the 100 mL in about 2 months and I’ve repurchased 😊

Not acne-prone, but dry and dehydrated and love it! I definitely layer it up!
hey I have the exact same skin concern as you can you tell me some products that you love?
@@idkwhyamiherelolwatch Alice in the Rabbit Hole channel. She's an amazing skincare RUclipsr for that skin type 😊
Can i know which moisturizer do you use? I have the same skin as you and this toner really does work wellll for me

Congrats Kelly on 80K!!!🎉
You look amazing in this video, love how your hair looks! 💕
Thank you so much, exciting time! 🙏❤
@@KellyDriscoll yes!! ☺️ 🫶🏻🫰🏻
The Iunik tea tree relief toner is the one I keep repurchasing. Very soothing and hydrating, and doesn't upset my sensitive acne prone skin.
I've tried the Anua Heartleaf toner, TirTir Milk Skin, BoJ Ginseng Essence, and Cosrx Propolis toner. Next month I plan on trying out the I'm From Rice Toner 😊
At first I thought that the Anua toner felt like plain water and did nothing for my skin, but with consistent use I noticed it help a bit with redness! The TirTir was so moisturising and calming, BoJ made my skin healthier, and Cosrx was amazing on my acne days.

I've had the exact same experience with all those too!
I'm From's rice toner did not work for me, so I hope it works for you 😊
Love the tirtir so much. I have dry skin though. It does not irritate my skin, but the I.m From made my skin burn
We need a top ten of all time for serums, toners etc
Just repurchased the COSrx Aha-BHA toner. It took SO LONG to use up. Great value
I remember it lasting a long time too, cosrx (especially their older products) can be a great value!
Literally obsessed with it !
Does it help your sebaceous filaments?
the haru haru one, cosrx propolis and BOJ one are indeed good toners but after trying so many I settled down on the numbuzin calming toner. For me its just perfect and I hope they dont reformulate or discontinue it ever because it was so hard for me to find one that really suits my skin and I enjoy using every day.
I want to try that toner soon! Hopefully my skin will tolerate it
I’ve never tried that but birch tree has so many good properties for skin. After I’ve got through all my other toners I’ll try this one.
I love that Round lab dokdo toner. I used up already 3 bottles and 2 more are in my stash. Thanks to you. It is perfect toner for my oily/combo bit dehydrated skin❤ also the ginseng essence I love.
Hello Kelly! 😊
For very dry mature skin, which toner would you suggest to make diy mask?
Maybe try the make prem essence toner I mention at the end of the video. It's really hydrating but has the watery texture you need to soak a toner pad. You might also like the Cosrx Propolis toner for some moisture.
@@KellyDriscoll thank you! 😊

Love the Haru Haru toner ❤
Haruharu is just a flawless brand for me. My favorite toner, favorite sunscreen, favorite cleanser. I still need to try their moisturizers.
Thanks for your review, it was very informative and helpful
Hey, I wanted to know your thoughts on the ordinary milky toner and Tonymoly mochi Ceramide toner.
I have tried all but Tir Tir, and I found the Anua, Round lab, Haru haru and BoJ to watery and not hydrating enough but they were very nice.

I love that Missha Essence!
Can you do Anua heartleaf and numbuzin no1 toner this or that?
They are both watery and not sticky, very refreshing! Go with any of them, they are pretty similar. I liked Nimbuzin a bit more 😊

I'm binging your videos lately. Will you make a (updated) video about vitamin c please? Really could use your opinions!
Yaaas 🙏🏼
Haru haru toner vs Isntree yam root milk toner ? Kelly can u please suggest which one is good for dry skin
My favourite Essence/Toner is Jin Jung Sung by ENS and Cosrx Propolis Synergy Toner . 🙌👏❤😊

Your review of beplain cicaterol toner?
Beauty of Joseon's ginseng essence does nothing for my combo/dry skin. I really wanted to like it because it includes ginseng but multiple layers seem to add no hydration whatsoever. I find the earthy potato-like smell quite offputting also (thankfully it doesn't hang around for long) but will persevere and finish the bottle before finding a replacement toner.
How about top 10 toner ( updated so far mid 2024)r according to kelly video.
SK II no 1 essence ever!!! Don't care how much it cost 😊
It's so good, one of the rare products that are worth the high price!
@@KellyDriscollis it suitable for dehydration prone combination skin Kelly ?
Kelly i have a recommendation!! Have you heard of the abib jericho rose cream? Please try it i have a feeling you will love it
I love the BOJ Ginseng Water Essence. I didn't care for the Cosrx Propolis. It was sticky, I didn't like the way it felt on my skin. I'm From Rice stung my skin 😢 and I could also feel it sitting on my skin. I have zero interest in TirTir. I haven't tried anything else from this list.
Beauty of Joseon Gingseng Essence Water was an immediate favorite and I’ve already got 2 backup bottles 🎉😂
Great insights as always! Surprised the tony moly ceramide mochi toner wasnt in the top 10
^Which do you think is super moisturizing and also soaks in fastest? I have dry skin. My skin didn’t like the I’m From Rice toner. And the Tir Tir… I just got and its as you said a little to thick and doesn’t feel like it soaks in all the way.

I love the Some by Mi one 😭
Curious as to which one you recommend for oily/acne prone skin in place of the Anua Heartleaf one.
Did you use? Is it good for acne prone combo skin?
As always you are a wealth of knowledge and I appreciate you!
Thank you so much, happy to share! 💖
I felt the same way about Tir Tir! For me, it felt a little heavy and sticky and I got the light version lol
did the light version work for u ? What effects u noticed when using ?
I want a toner which hydrates+gives you a glass skin. I have a combination skin type, please suggest a toner that would be good for my skin type.
The Im From, Haru Haru, and Cosrx propolis toners are my favorites. I’ve repurchased all three many times. I found the Round Lab toner underwhelming. I’ll use it up but will not repurchase. I want to try the BoJ and Hado Labo. I’m surprised a kombucha or green tea toner didn’t make the list.
Definitely some gems that didn't make the list!
I tried Keep cool bamboo toner on your recommendation and it was so good but it’s out of stock now so can you please suggest an alternative to it
It's discontinued and the brand no longer exists! Try the make prem essence toner!
Hi ..
Can i use haruharu toner as the first layer of sandwich method before my tretinoin???
My skin has become extremely dry as i m using tretinoin. Plz suggest something

SkII, missha time revolution, haru haru, APLB peptide, Dr, Ceuracle ❤️...my list differs & that's ok

Really love the rice toner too. So deeply moisturizing for my dry skin❤
I will try that birch product after I am done with my bottles
The I'm From rice toner really moisturizes my skin, and I have dry skin. It's not overwhelming but a couple of layers can really make a difference :)
VT cica hyalon toner is amazing 🎉
which 1 is better for oily acne prone skin with dullness and uneven skin tone???
I'd suggest looking at numbuzin no 5+ line for the concerns you listed.
Naturie Skin Conditioner , no fuzz .
Hi lovely Kelly, great video as always. I’ve been watching your videos non stop this week.. just 1 toner I can’t find your review - Celimax dual barrier creamy toner. Can you pls check it and share your review? Thanks a lot 😊
I don't know why but propolis one doesn't suit me it gave me whiteheads every other morning.. I use it at night
Well, just to give a different perspective on tirtir milk toner, in my case it absorbs completely, makes my skin plump and dewy (with absolute zero grease) and it is the only product that helps me to get rid of that tightness. And man, i tried almost everything you talk about on this channel, i am no beginner 😂 (my skin is super dehydrated, acne prone, sensitive, with oily t zone)
I'm so happy it works for you, it's by no means a bad product! 💖
Can you share affordable products that works both for acne and dark spots ????
Azelaic acid might be a good start. You can try Cos de Baha 10% azelaic acid it’s about $10? It can help with both.
Salicylic acid never worked for me, but azelaic acid did.
Vitamin C never worked for me, but azelaic acid did.
You might also try a gentle retinoid. Retinoids increase cell turnover, helping keep pores clear and shed hyperpigmented layers. Beauty of Joseon has a very gentle retinal eye serum that can be used for the whole face for about $13.
And a gentle cleanser! HaruHaru and Rovectin are good options.
Some essential oils have natural antibacterial properties to them, making them excellent for treating acne skin. Tea Tree, Lavender, Eucalyptus and Peppermint are some of these types of oils. Great for the pores & honestly, it’s not strong smelling with the oils. I’m 61, & recently started using the Some by mi Toner, Serum & Cream with NO problems. ❤
Agreed! It’s not just for fragrance plus, I didn’t find the peppermint oil to be strong in this toner at all! however, I just didn’t like it.
Numbuzin No 1 pure calming toner deserves top 3
I found the tirtir toner so irritating. My face would turn red and ringing. So awful. I use it on my body ad a moisturizer so that I can finish it
I'm From Rice in the winter, Haruharu in the summer! ☀️ ❤
Numbuzin number 1 Toner.. th goat
It's so good and awesome value!
So far i like the result of kombucha tea essence, I see food result after using in a single night.. I'm blown away by the great result I can't expect to be like this.. i saw my face that little bit tighten, inflamed pimple calm down and also redness significantly reduced .. i noticed that had same smell as olive oil?
lol i think the some by mi is advertising their ph adjusting citric acid as an aha which is technically not a lie HAHAHAHHA
Omg I hate when they do that, Purito did something similar a few years ago like this ACID is exfoliating... 😒
Agreed with you. TIR TIR not for me. Peppermint 👎🏻 essential oils 👎🏻
the dokdo toner is advertised to exfoliate bc of the protease tho.. not the sugarcane
Interesting the marketing definitely pointed towards the sugarcane at least the 1-2 years ago when I was looking into it, maybe they have changed their tune. The over all formula still doesn't exfoliate!

I used the dokdo toner as my *only* toner *every day* for about *two months* (I was traveling), and I found it to be “exfoliating” in the way that your skin clears up on a beach vacation 🥰 like my skin was smooth, the texture I can get on my forehead and chin were “buffed” away, I didn’t deal with the normal pore congestion/blackheads that buildup from the irregularities in my routine while traveling. It just kinda.. kept my skin clear? Didn’t help really with existing PIH, or if I didn’t wash my face I’d still wake up with an irritated blemish or two, but it helped calm and clear it up-kinda like a salt water gargle for irritated gums or something 🤷🏽♀️ idk, but I used up the 100 mL in about 2 months and I’ve repurchased 😊
Tried a lot of these, didn't like any. My favourite remains the TIAM Vita B5 toner 🫶
I will go back to that one when it gets cold for sure
That's such a goodie, definitely deserves more love!
