Review on 🌟 HYALU-CICA Brightening Toner: Hyaluronic Acid, Cica Niacinamide, Hydration & Refreshing Solutions - 7.10 fl.oz (210ml) by Denise Kirkeby

LIKE IT, DON'T LOVE IT

This brightening toner is part of K-Beauty's skincare line which contains the soothing ingredient Madagascar Centella for sensitive skin and I combine it with their super hydrating serum in the same Line. [See photos of both products together] Unlike the serum, the toner has a full list of ingredients on the packaging in English. One of the gentlest toners I've ever used, this features an astringent action with AHAs, Hyaluronic Acid and Madagascar Centella formula to moisturize, tighten pores and brighten skin. This is not your typical watery tonic, although it looks like it in the bottle. Instead, it has more texture and a slightly fresh scent, but fades with application. What strikes me the most is the soothing feel and smoothness of the skin with no stickiness. It's supposed to be for dry skin, but to be honest it doesn't feel hydrated once it's absorbed. So it's not my favorite toner (or serum, either), but both are reasonably priced and supposedly aimed at hydration and brightening. AHAs that are also hydrating sound contradictory. I probably wouldn't reorder any of these if I couldn't find a moisturizer in the brand's range. I refused to order a mask because it contains lavender which irritates my skin. Okay, but this isn't a toner or serum for me.
