Beauty of Joseon Ginseng Essence Water Hydrating Face Toner for Dry, Dull Skin. Korean Moisturizing Skin Care for Men and Women 150ml, 5 fl.oz

I have oily combo skin that's acne prone but I got this as preventative skincare since ginseng is known to be anti-aging and I'm in my 20s. Right of the bat, I love how the packaging feels, it's very nice quality since it's sleek and has a weight to it. The product itself has no fragrance at all which will work well for people who are sensitive to fragrances. The consistency is slightly thicker than water but it's still very runny! This absorbs so well into the skin and doesn't feel tacky at all, I find that this is very moisturizing on my skin. After the first few uses, I can definitely see an overall improvement in my skin health and it gave my skin a nice glow. After using it for a while, my skin barrier has been a lot better! I don't see any anti-aging benefits yet, but that's also because I don't have fine-lines yet. But overall, this product is great for the skin barrier and glow! Your face will feel very soft

I am a subscriber to this essence. I first got it at a shop. always been fan of Beauty of Joseon but never used this. I've used up 2 bottles now and currently subscribed to receive this every 4 months. This last a long time. Mybskin drinks it up absorbing very well. Lightweight, high quality with ginseng, softens my skin to prepare for serum and moistimureizer. Affordable and very good quality. This is an authentic product. Slightly sticky at first but dries down very quickly. For any skin type. I have combination skin that's dry, some parts oily and sensitive as well. and I am over 50yr old i use high end skincare and this. A+++I hope my review was helpful to you. Have a beautiful day!

This product made my skin looks so good and it is hydrating on your skin

It has kind of an unpleasant smell but once you pat it into the skin it goes away. Works best if applies on a very damp/slightly wet face and once your skin dries down you will notice the difference in how it feels.I really like BOJ, the only thing of theirs that didn't help my skin was the exfoliator - its too gentle, it doesnt really exfoliate like id want.

Update: I reorder this whenever I am out - I love what it does to and for my skin. They also have a ginseng/snail mucin mix that works so well for my rosacea redness. If I use CosRX centella asiatica toner, then this ginseng essence, and top it off with either CoxRX snail mucin or the BOJ ginseng/smail mucin, my skin is not only glowing with a healthy glow, but the redness is very much calmed down! That's all I have on my face as I write this and my skin feels wonderful. I will add some retinoid and/or moisturizer later.Love it!--------------------This is my first try of Beauty of Joseon and I would definitely try other products from this brand. My skin loves K-beauty, and as well I often find some K-beauty brands are not as pricey. This one is reasonably priced and a little goes a long way so that makes the value better as well.I love how you have to 'shake out' a bit of the essence so that it isn't wasted - not to much comes out at a time and you don't need much. A few shakes onto my palm and I pat and then press the essence onto my skin. Patting and pressing works better than trying to 'rub' it onto the skin.I do a multi-step routine - since I work remotely, I have the time to take my time. I cleanse and immediately use a toner--though this is both essence and toner, right now I have a separate milky toner. I sometimes apply this essence right after toning or I'll wait 10-15 minutes. I wait another 15 minutes or more and then comes my vitamin c. Waiting between each product allows it time to absorb into my skin (at least this is what my research indicates). It also gives my skin time to settle down between products. I apply my serums and moisturizers, and SPF last when I'm leaving the house.Essences are mostly water and that's what they are supposed to be so don't expect something thicker or emollient. Essences are made to go on early in your routine, after cleansing, whether you use them as a toner or just an added step after toning as I'm doing right now until my milky toner runs out and then I will use this as one step toning and essence and see how that goes.I have rosacea-prone skin and there is zero irritation or redness, no burning or itchy feeling. My skin tolerates this essence very well. It leaves my skin looking bright and refreshed.There is 2% Niacinamide included, which is a form of vitamin B and though it's a small amount, it's still a powerhouse ingredient.Ginseng is known for its anti-aging qualities, inflammation reducing, and brightening for the skin.I'm happy with my order.

I love the this ginseng toner. It’s super lightweight and smells good. I use it with my Sooreyhan Ginseng essence set and it’s just a heavenly ginseng combo. Makes prepping for makeup easy, rubbing off oil and sebum easy as well. I’m on my second bottle, that says a lot!

I love using this as a first step in my skincare routine. I use this both day and night and it layers well under makeup. It is very light but very hydrating. It's a staple in my routine. I have sensitive skin and use this with no problems.
