COSRX Full Fit Propolis Synergy Toner Hydrating Honey Face Toner 150ml

I use this toner when I do my honey routine. I love to do my double cleanse, then follow with this toner, the I'm From Honey Serum, and Iunik's Propolis Sleeping Mask. Those three make a wonderful trio. I like to use honey propolis, because it helps my skin calm down. It is great for really any skin type. But, mine is mature. I really enjoy the smell. I enjoy giving my skin a break from actives and letting honey do it's magic to make my skin happy. This toner is the perfect addition to my honey routine. I also love Papa Recipe's Honey sleeping pack. I like to put it under the iunik Propolis mask. Propolis has so many benefits, without the irritation. I just love it. And, this toner is awesome. The packaging is nice too. It's pretty on your vanity. It's such a treat. One could use it every day, or as much as they want. I use Medicube's Triple Collagen Glow trio most nights, because it's so firming. But, I use the honey as a treat. It's simply more fun and delightful to the senses. Plus, it works nicely.

I fell in love with the COSRx Propolis Serum a while back. (I wrote a really detailed review on that product that explains why. Basically, it really helped heal my face & restored a ton of self-confidence. It continues to keep working its "magic" or just keeping my skin in check at times.) So, I finally decided to give this matching toner a try. I think it's going to be another staple in my personal skincare routine. I find it helps balance my skin better than using the serum alone. It seems to help me absorb the serum better, too. I've tried two other toners from the drugstore, but this one actually seems to be doing something effective for me. I can actually feel and see results with this toner.I've been applying this immediately after cleansing and drying my face. The different facial cleansers I sometimes switch between don't seem relevant to how this product performs. All are gentle cleansers, but two are slightly more drying than the other one. I'm still figuring out which one I like best. Regardless, this toner seems to work the same no matter which of the cleansers I've used beforehand.I just swipe this toner over my face; and it feels like my skin is extra clean, balanced, and less dried out in some spots than if I went without it. It seems to provide a clean, even canvas so I can better absorb the matching serum.That last part is pretty important to me considering I use the serum twice a day, every day. The cost of routine products really adds up. So, it's nice that I can use way less of the serum and have a slightly better effect when pairing it with this toner. I feel like it's worth the money because it'll reduce how quickly I'll use up a bottle of the serum. (I seem to have started using a little less than half the amount of serum when I apply this toner first. It took a while before I noticed I didn't need as much of the serum anymore.) I don't know for sure if I'll actually be saving money or just adding a tiny bit more to my expenses by adding this product to my daily routine. But even if I'm spending a little more, the effects this has on my skin is worth it to me.I would recommend this toner to others. Particularly to those who suffer from skin problems, like: inflammation, severe dryness that causes irritation or damage, occassional acne, folliculitis, and post-inflammatory hyper-pigmentation (like skin darkening/redness from acne or scars).JUST TO BE CLEAR: I am not claiming this product will cure all those problems I just mentioned. Those are just some major issues that I've dealt with or still deal with to various extents.Personal experience: I used to have practically "perfect-looking" skin that hardly required any special upkeep for most of my life. Several years ago, when I was in my 30s, I got hit with some major skin problems/damages. It took a very long time and a lot of effort to get most of those problems under control. Ultimately, I was left with a lot of scarring and hyper-pigmentation on my face that really frustrated me and made me self-conscious. I wasn't used to feeling so insecure about my face. I wasn't used to skincare products either. But I had to learn and adjust accordingly. Over the last year or so, I've been gradually figuring out a skincare routine that really works for me and that has been drastically improving my skin appearance (as well as overall condition). This toner just seems like something that's significantly helping me deal with or recover from those skin issues I mentioned right now. I wanted to write this review in case anyone else out there can relate and is still trying to figure out their own personal skincare routine. Hopefully, the info I provided will be helpful. I'd say definitely give this a shot if you find the COSRx propolis serum has been helpful for you. Give it about a week and see if your skin starts absorbing the serum better. (I'm still figuring out the whole moisturizer ordeal. Unfortunately, the whole COSRx Propolis line up doesn't work for me. Just this and the other product.)UPDATE MANY MONTHS LATER:Confirmed. This toner has become a part of my daily routine. But I also found another use for it! Whenever my propolis serum "runs out," there always seems to be a small amount left in the bottom crevices of the bottle that I just can't reach. (The serum comes in a glass bottle with a dropper lid.) I hate wasting products - especially ones that are on the pricier side. I had 2 bottled of the "left over" serum on hand. I squeezed a tiny bit of this toner into the "empty" serum bottles & shook them up. Voila! A perfect match! I was able to get the last bit of the serum by using the dropper or by tapping the bottle into my hand. Combining the 2 doesn't have quite the same effect as using them 1 after the other. But they still work very well together. I was able to use up all of the remaining serum. And this mixture was especially convenient on days when I was in a hurry, but didn't want to skimp out on my skincare routine & risk old prob

This is one of my favorite toners and currently has been my go to first step in both my morning and night time skin care routine. I have combination, sensitive, acne prone skin and for me it has been so great after washing my face to hydrate and plump up my skin.I love that it has propolis which is said to have anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, which can help to reduce the appearance of dark spots. While I don't have a lot of dark spots, I do think this has helped even out my overall skin tone and brighten my skin with a natural glow 💕 skincare is very personal so not everything works for everyone but I truly love this toner. This is my 3rd or 4th bottle I've bought 😄 I also love the consistency of the product. It's watery but not too watery, it has nice body to it and is not sticky when I apply it on damp or dry skin. One of my holy grails for sure!

I am an oily skin type that is very highly prone to dehydration (thank you Texas and your dry climate).I am also pretty acne prone, so not a lot of products can work with my skin.So finally finding a toner that works to hydrate my skin, but not mess with my other products (like my azelaic acid treatment) was an act of congress. But after doing a ton of research, thank you reddit, I came across this propolis toner.I am so happy I discovered this gem, it has been a life saver!It hydrates my skin really well, doesn't mess with my other skincare products, doesn't cause acne, and doesn't make me more oily. It just works. Best of all, it doesn't heavily rely on hyaluronic acid to hydrate, which is what A LOT of products use these days and it does not work well in a dry climate. It's SUPER difficult to work with HA in a dry climate.I wanna say the combo of propolis and honey is what is working well with my skin. These ingredients have never caused me issues and they hydrate my skin and soothe it at the same time.Now, the but. This toner is ALMOST perfect, but that price, yikes.I remember when COSRX used to be one of the most affordable Korean skincare brands, but now a lot of their simple products (like this toner) are an insanely expensive price. $22 for 5oz is not economical.I will be strictly buying this toner when it's on sale, and if that is rare, I will look for an alternative. I know my skin likes honey and propolis, so I can find other products if needed.

Love, love, love this toner. I think I'm now on my 5th bottle. It really hydrates my skin after cleansing and leaves my skin with a nice glow that isn't greasy. It's definitely improved the texture of my skin and so far it's the best toner I've come across.
