What does the product description say?

A Korean skin care cult favorite, this hydrating toner is formulated with houttuynia cordata to soothe inflamed and troubled skin. Lightly spritz on cleansed face.

Source: Yesstyle

This product contains good ingredients to attract water to the upper layer of the skin. These ingredients are called "humectants": glycerin, sodium lactate.

When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from within deeper layers of the skin. If the air is dry, humectants can speed up the moisture loss from the skin. This is why it is a good idea to use another product on top of this one to help "seal in" the moisture (look for ingredients like dimethicone, squalane, oils and butters).

The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: panthenol

sodium pca 0.5% - 1.2%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Naturally present in skin and helps to attract water to its upper layer

glycerin 4.4% - 6.5%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant

panthenol 3.6% - 5.4%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: HIGH

Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin and can help improve skin barrier function

Anti-blemish

What does the product description say?

It is especially effective towards acne, tired and sensitive skin, as it has the ability to calm irritation and repair skin.

Effective ingredients missing or their concentration is too low.

salix alba bark extract 0.15% - 0.55%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Insufficient!

A plant extract that can help neutralize free radicals in skin. It contains a compound salicin that can theoretically be converted into salicylic acid that, in turn, helps reduce inflammation in skin, but the evidence of effectiveness in skin is lacking and the extract is usually not used in a concentration that would enable an exfoliating effect

Anti-oxidation

This product contains antioxidants (glycyrrhiza inflata root extract, lonicera japonica flower extract, origanum vulgare leaf extract, portulaca oleracea extract, scutellaria baicalensis root extract). In theory, they could help neutralize free radicals in skin and lessen the damage it gets from the UV light (sun), but there is no evidence that these ingredients can have a noticeable effect in skin.

scutellaria baicalensis root extract 0.05% - 0.1%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: LOW

A plant extract that might contain a compound baicalin that could be helpful in neutralizing free radicals and reducing inflammation in skin. The baicalin concentration in skincare products is often too low for an effective action. Can be used for its fragrant properties

glycyrrhiza inflata root extract 0.15% - 0.65%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: LOW

A plant extract that can help lighten the skin and calm down inflammation. Might be helpful in neutralizing free radicals

lonicera japonica flower extract 0.4% - 0.95%

Irritation risk:

Concentration: Effectiveness: LOW

A plant extract that might help neutralize free radicals in skin. Can contain volalite oils and be irritating
