Skinfood Lettuce & Cucumber Toner Review

Hey everyone~Here's another review for you all ^-^I've got lots of stuff that I still have to review (especially all the things I bought in Korea last year), so since I don't want to spam you with travel posts (of which I still have many to write), I'll try to keep a balance between Skincare stuff and Travel posts. Right now i'm a tiny bit busy so I haven't had time to edit all the photos of my Asia trip yet. Which is why today you'll see a review of a Skincare product instead. Yay or Nay? :D

Price: Between 7 and 10€ on EbayAmount: 135mlSo I bought this because I couldn't buy a toner in Korea and I really needed one. Why, you might ask?Well...my luggage was over the weight limit already when I came to Korea, so I had to stick to lightweight things and Toners in glass bottles are kinda heavy. T^T So I ordered this one from Ebay.

The ingredients list is only in Korean, so if you particularly care about those you might need to use a translator.It says "A Moisture toner with lettuce and cucumber extracts that promotes clean, pure skin"Which is exactly what I need. My skin is not oily at all, but tends to get a few dry areas and is really sensitive.I'm a little bit upset though that the only item that seemed suitable was this one.Compared to all the other cool skincare lines from Skinfood, Lettuce and Cucumber just kind of sounds really...boring. T^T It doesn't look as cool as their other skincare lines either.

I still love how detailed all of Skinfood's product packaging is. Look at that lettuce and cucumber on the bottle :DBy the way, it actually smells like cucumber. If you don't like that smell, beware.I happen to really like cucumber (it's so refreshing to eat in summer), so it's alright for me.

The texture is like any other toner, very watery and not that thick.It easily soaks into your skin and feels very lightweight, not sticky at all.So far, I haven't noticed many changes in my skin condition since I've started using it (already used up half of the bottle now). I only get pimples when I'm on my period (you girls know that problem, right? ;-;) and my skin still feels dry sometimes, but I guess to actually give your skin moisture you'd need to use something stronger than just a toner. This one feels refreshing to apply in the morning, and it prepares my skin for the next steps. And it didn't break me out, even though my skin does that quickly with new products, so yay :DDo you use Skinfood products too? Which ones would you recommend, or which ones would you like to try? :D

Etude House Wonder Pore Freshner Review

Price: 9,000 Won on TesterKorea 

(if you're wondering why I'm not using the price on Koreadepart as a reference anymore, the prices on TK are lower and basically the same as the prices in the stores in Korea)

Amount: 250ml

What it claims to do:

"I'm the Wonder Woman for your pores"

It's like your usual toner, so the texture is just like water.

It soaks up into cotton pads quickly, but you can also just pour some on your hands and then pat it into you skin if you want to.

Unlike other toners, this one doesn't smell like alcohol at all :D

It still reminds me a little of medicine though, but just a little fortunately.

The scent is not very strong, so maybe you won't even notice it.

This toner works really well for me ^-^

It did not irritate my skin at all, even though I'm using it both in the morning and in the evening every day.

Of course, it does not magically do everything it promises on the packaging. I think those effects maybe happen when you use the whole Wonder Pore line, but I can't say for sure since I only own the Freshner.

Anyways, it really cleanses my skin. Every time I use my cleanser, or a mask, and wipe over my face with a cotton pad soaked with the Wonder Pore Freshner, I get some residues on it, even though my face actually looked clean before. 

I also feel like this helps to tame my breakouts a little. If I spot a small pimple and pat some Freshner on it in the evening, it usually doesn't seem worse the next morning. Yay for that :D

5/5 Stars :D

Because it's only a toner,  I didn't expect any wonders to happen. But it cleanses well, calms any troubles and does not break me out. I'm planning to try other toners soon, but if those break me out I might just repurchase a bottle of Wonder Pore Freshner ^^
