[ KAINE ] Kombu Balancing Ampoule Toner 150ml

RECOMMENDED FOR: All skin types, especially skin prone to severe dehydration, sensitive/trouble-prone skin, disrupted oil-water balance

PERFECT FOR: When severe dehydration and disrupted oil-water balance are on your mind, and you want a product combining a water toner and an ampoule

AM: Suitable for both morning and evening: after cleansing, sweep along your skin texture with a soaked cotton pad, or layer 2-3 times by hand to absorb. For intensive hydration, soak a cotton pad generously and use as a 5-10 minute toner pack.

PM: A denser, bouncier, tea-toned ampoule liquid than a typical watery toner, absorbing fast with no stickiness for a fresh moisture film. Free from synthetic fragrance (a subtle, natural black tea note).
