Alchemic Ginsenoside Herbal Rx Toner – Hydrating Facial Toner with Ginsenoside, Ectoin & 11 Fermented Extracts, Boosts Moisture & Skin Barrier, Preps & Revives Dull Skin, 8.45 fl. oz.

Disclosure: I am a fan of Fraijour products - one of the more recognizable brands to emerge from S. Korea. They have a track record for producing top notch skincare products and this herbal toner is no exception. This toner is quite a bit different than what you'll find in American drugstores - perhaps that's due to the presence of ginseng, which is quite evident from the moment you open the bottle. You can read through the special ingredients in this unique product on their Amazon page, so I won't rehash those here, but suffice it to say you won't find a toner with these types of ingredients at Walgreen's. It is gentle to apply, and lacks the harshness of alcohol based, harsh astringent toners which are commonly available here in the States. My skin feels really nice after using this - much better than the usual drugstore brands. I consider toner an essential skincare step after washing and before serum and moisturizer - a good toner readies your skin for the rest of your daily treatment routine. I wouldn't hesitate to use this fragrant yet highly beneficial toner daily since it does not dry your skin. Absolutely recommended.

When I write a review I give four stars for meeting expectations and five for exceeding expectations; this receives five stars for exceeding my expectations.At the time of order, the price was $23I'm very conservative when it comes to health and beauty aids, the ingredients are going in my system, I want the best quality I can afford as well as performance.I was not familiar with this brand. From the information I can see online this is a Korean company dedicated to overall skin care, quality ingredients and formulas that support improving the health and appearance of our skin.The toner lightweight with a mild scent, it sweeps on the skin and dries quickly. My face felt clean and moisturized.

I apply several drops of this to my face after cleansing every morning. It leaves my skin feeling soft, bright, and moisturized. It gets absorbed into my skin pretty quickly and doesn't leave it feeling greasy. Personally I would prefer that beauty products meant for the face be unscented. Having said that, the scent wasn't overpowering or offensive (herbal, floral), and it dissipated soon afterwards.

Not sure what exactly it is, but this toner seems to make my skin super happy! It has a bit of a pungent herbal smell that I wasn't expecting, but it fades fast, and I got used to it after the first couple uses. I feel like my skin is a lot brighter, and less congested since I started using this about 2 weeks ago. I tap some onto my face with my fingers, before my regular moisturizer and other products. It doesn't take much, so I feel like this product will last me a long time! This is another product that's gonna go on my reorder list.

Very light and hydrating toner that is effective, but it does have a light, flowery fragrance that I could do without. The texture is still relatively thin and liquidy in texture.

This herbal toner comes in a bottle with a capped lid, so I found that the easiest way to apply it was to pour it on to cotton pads and wipe it on my skin. It absorbs well, doesn’t dry out the skin like some toners, and while it initially feels a little sticky on my skin, that feeling goes away as it is absorbed. It contains peptides, collagen, hyaluronic acid, ginseng root extract, and several other herbal ingredients that are used to help repair skin cells and reduce wrinkles. This has a light pleasant scent and makes my skin feel tighter and more hydrated. I have only just started using it so I don’t know if it will help reduce my wrinkles, but so far I like it.

This toner has too much wrong with it for me to be able to recommend it. First off, it is overpriced at $23. Second, it smells TERRIBLE. Third, the smell doesn't go away. I did a test on my hand and won't be using this on my face. It is gross!

I don't mind scented products for my face, but really struggled with this one. It's an herbal/medicinal scent that is overpowering and lasts several minutes. While my skin didn't have any adverse reactions to using it, I find myself already searching for a replacement toner. It's only been a few days, so maybe I'll get used to it.If you dislike scented facial products, don't purchase this.
