"The Laneige Cream Skin is probably one of the most incredible toners for oily skin because it does more than just tone, it's quite literally a toner and a moisturizer in one. I just love it because it is the perfect texture for me, it's not too thick and it's not too serum-like. It's going to be absorbed by your skin, it's not going to sit on top, and it's not going to give you greasy skin. You could wash your face, exfoliate, use this, then sunscreen, and that could quite literally be your prep under makeup."

"Laneige Cream Skin is the OG milky toner, packed with ceramide and peptide for that barrier repairing, firming punch. If you have dry or mature skin in a dry climate, it's a win. But it's heavy, it's so oily, it leaves the bottle sticky, and in humid weather it's a pass for oily skin."

"I don't think this Laneige Cream Skin is really amazing, but when I try similar milky toner products from other brands they're not as good as this one. I highly, highly recommend it only for dry mature skin, not for oily combo skin, because it's not just a watery toner, they pour actual cream and moisturizer into it. When I tested it with younger friends who have combo oily skin, they felt something heavy sitting on the skin, but for dry skin it makes things a lot more hydrating. I don't recommend applying it with a cotton pad, just splash it on with your hands or use it as a mist. It's worth trying if you have dry mature skin."

Global No.1 vs Korea No.1 SKINCARE | Which One is Really Better To Buy?

"Laneige Cream Skin is a milky toner, a mixture of toner and cream, and it moisturizes better than watery toners, so it's recommended for dry and mature skin. A year ago they upgraded it to a second version and I feel it became a little lighter, but it still makes you hydrated pretty well. If you have dry or mature skin you can layer it two or three times to make it much more hydrated. I do feel it's a little more expensive though, so between the two I like I'm From better."

I Bought every Best Selling Korean Skincare From Olive Young to find the best one.

"Laneige Cream Skin recently changed their model to BTS Jungkook so there's a lot of marketing behind it. It's a watery toner poured together with a cream, so it's like a hybrid toner and cream, milky and thicker, a lot better for dry skin and mature skin. For oily skin I don't really recommend it that much, but you can still put it on a cotton pad and wipe it on, it still leaves your skin hydrated. It's a toner but a bit pricey, though Olive Young offers a refill promotion and gives out a mini size, so I recommend buying it at times like that."

"The Laneige Cream Skin, that's amazing. That one has been so popular for many years, but I feel it's become a little more expensive in recent years, I think because of the popularity on social media."
