COSRX - AHA/BHA Clarifying Treatment Toner

This toner is fantastic and it helps with whiteheads, blackheads and blemishes. Really good with cleansing your skin and very gentle and especially recommended for those who have acne prone skin.
It is more recommended to use it in your night time routine as it contains AHA/BHA (acids), making your skin more sensitive to UVA and UVB. The first time that I used these ( a newbie in skincare), it worsened my freckles and sun spots even if my pimples were completely gone. Now I only use this every night or just one/two times a week in my morning routine including a 50+++ sunscreen. Overall, still very recommended if used correctly.

I must admit, initially I did not like this toner; it was not a terrible toner, but I just didn't realize how much it was doing for my skin. However, when I stopped using this toner for a couple of days (I usually use it at night), I realized how much acne it cleared out. Some recommendations for using the product would be: as it is an acid toner, avoid using in the daytime because of sun exposure, spritz the product onto a cotton pad and then apply to face to maximize product, be careful to watch for sensitivity - this is an acid toner, and some people may be more sensitive to the AHA/BHA in this product. I really love this product and I highly recommend it!

I have sensitive skin and really hesitate to try new products out as I have acne prone skin and I get dry patches easily due to chemicals in products. This not only cleared up my skin, it keeps it hydrated, clean and soft. Not only has it reduced break-outs (close to no break outs now), it has soothed my skin and lightened up scars, it has also gotten rid of tiny bumps and brighten up my complexion. It feels very refreshing even during the cold winter. I use this day and night after cleaning my face and then I use an essence on top, I only use a moisturiser if I have dry patches - as they tend to clog my pore. I definitely recommend this product! I have made 3 purchases and will likely be making more.

ok so it's update time guys, it's been a year and deadass it has become one of my HG, that combined with the ordinary niacinamide and bha cleared my skin of blackheads and those little bumps you get on your forehead like NO OTHER.

TL;DR : amazing, still in love, maybe getting married because i cant live without it and i need the taxe benefit

SO, this thing is absolutely A-MA-ZING. I know you're thinking blablabla you're saying this because society is horrible and you want your money to be good, I know little flower I know but LISTEN TO ME (Im honestly so excited rn). My nose is basically a glorified strawberry and this just transformed my skin into some baby butt skin and I AM FLOURED. There are still the bigger ones (I hate them so much) but in only 2 weeks I saw so much difference i am shooketh. I didn't have a lot of whiteheads, so I'm sorry but I can't help you with that. ALSO LET IT SIT ON YOUR CUTE LITTLER FACE FOR 30 MINUTES. REALLY. You may be like me and just behave like a little thug and apply your cream straight after buT DONT. I saw so much improvement in two (2) days with that. Improvement that weren't there aLL WEEK LONG. SO LISTEN TO ME. AND LET. IT. SIT.

At first I was applying it to a cotton pad and it always felt like I didn't put enough on my face because the pad was absorbing it all. Then I watched a YouTuber doing his skincare routine and I figured that you're supposedto apply it directly on your hands and up to three times for a more glowy skin. So a tip for people who may not know just like I didn't.

One of the best exfoliators ever. I apply it every night and it removes my dead skin so well! My skin got so much brighter and also very clear.

!!!!IF YOU'RE WEARING IT AT DAY TIME... NEVER FORGET SUNSCREEN! YOUR SKIN WILL BE MORE PRONE FOR SUN DAMAGE!!!!!

I mainly uses this toner as "pH corrector" after washing my face, and as blemishes preventor. This toner WILL NOT dissolve / remove blackheads or whiteheads, if that's what you're looking for, you'll be disappointed with this. However, this is quite effective toner TO PREVENT the development of whiteheads and blackheads (provided you deal with those two problems first - eg using salicylic acid cleanser). Not sure if i love it, but i definitely like it. It is very soothing and mildly hydrating. Gentle on my skin and do not give me any irritation - i don't have sensitive skin, mind you. Also it's gentle enough for every day use as i don't see negative effects.

I've tried lots of different facial products to get rid of my acne and the small bumps on my forehead and only this one seems to work well. I've been using this for 3 or 4 months now and I see a drastic difference with my skin. I have oily skin and I think it controls the oil production throughout the day, and that's probably what reduces the amount of acne. I do get the occasional acne here and there, but I've noticed that they go away faster. Overall, loving this product and I'm buying a second bottle, even though I still have 1/4 of product left (which will probably last me another 2 months or so).

I've tried so many products to clear up my acne, and after using it for about 2 weeks, I've definitely seen my skin clearing up! I also use this with the St. Ives apricot scrub, but it was definitely this product that did the trick. I usually have combination skin, and this product helps keep the oil under control. I used to have small pimples on my forehead (the ones that look like they're under the skin) and they're gone now! I highly recommend this product

This is a very nice toner, it is very refreshing and doesn't feel like anything on the skin after it has dried and leaves no residue. I like to use it with a cotton pad if I want a bit more exfoliation or then spray it onto my face if my skin is more sensitive. It doesn't t dry out your skin but I wouldn't say it is super hydrating either. It is just a nice refreshing toner that is perfect to tone your skin after cleansing. It is very gentle, doesn't irritate the skin and doesn't have a strong scent. I have acne prone oily sensitive skin and this didn't break me out. However it is not enough to keep the acne on bay so in case of acne it should still be used in conjunction with other products.

I have oily, combination skin with slightly sensitised skin.
Used it every day for a couple months to test it out and noticed a major difference in the blackheads and whiteheads on my nose area. They were mostly gone and my pores were minimised.
Helped a lot with the flaky skin I have from fresh acne scars and dry skin in general - when I applied it, the flaky skin was gone!
I stopped using it to see what difference it actually made. After just 2 days, noticed my nose pores were bigger, the whiteheads were more prominent and blackheads were more prevalent.
Product also lasts a long time, even after every day use - still have 1/4 of the bottle left since September.
Overall, the exfoliation was mild - didn't feel anything and really helped with dry, flaky skin and reduction of blackheads and whiteheads (practically gone).

It’s like water. But works for sure. Good for Blackheads. Use my code NPHRLV and save some money.

I really enjoy using this toner. It doesn't have a super noticeable difference in your skin, but for my dehydrated oily skin it works super well. after I take off my makeup, I often don't feel like washing my face right away so I use this after and it gets rid of the dry and tight feeling from the makeup remover.
