"This is literally like a nice hug for your skin. I have not loved a toner so much. And this is not just a toner. This is like a toner, an essence, a serum. And if you are someone with oily skin or combination skin, this is also like a moisturizer. The only thing I would recommend is that if you're someone with acne prone skin, avoid this, in fact, avoid all milky toners."

"I do like this one because it's definitely that full fat water type of situation toner. It's runny, it's very liquidy. There is just like a kiss of body to it, but it's not like thick plumping gelike type of consistency. It's watery, quickly absorbed into the skin, layerable without being sticky and tacky despite hyaluronic being in the name. It's very straightforward. Doesn't have to be super exciting to impress me. I do really enjoy this one."

"Their black rice hyaluronic toner is truly viral iconic fan favorite product. The main humectant is of course hyaluronic acid so it provides a really nice hydrating feeling that remains throughout the day and it's kind of like just thicker than water kind of consistency. Whilst we know rice extract is a really popular ingredient within K Beauty, Haru Haru's version is fermented meaning their fermented black rice extract is two times more effective. It's moisturizing, it's an antioxidant, the black rice leaves your skin feeling plump. This is one of those toners, personally in my opinion, that I love one application for your standard hydration step in your routine but if you are looking for a dewier glow, say you're going out, you're going to put makeup over the top and you want that glow to shine from within, do a couple of layers with this. A couple after your cleanser and then one more layer before your moisturizer and you're going to get that dewy glow. Your skin is going to feel and look super hydrated."

"I really like the toner. They do a fragrance free version now, which is actually nicer because I wasn't keen on the smell. It's just very unique."
