Farmacy Hydrating Essence - Hydrating Honey Milk Toner + Facial Essence to Soothe, Moisturize and Strengthen Skin Barrier - Preps Complexion for Skincare Products or Makeup Application (120ml)

Farmacy is such an underrated brand with exceptional products, and this is one of my favorites! I'm an oily skin gal with mild rosacea, and this hydrating essence has helped soothe my skin and reduce redness. I'm on my 3rd bottle. It's so effective I've started using it in place of a moisturizer lotion during the day! My skin is no longer an oil slick by 3pm, it's just perfectly dewy and supple. Wears great under makeup, and absorbs quickly after application. I also love that it's packaged in glass, which means less plastic in the landfills.

great product

Adding this product as a base has been a game changer in my skin care routine. I love the way it moisturizers my skin in the dryer season. Can’t wait to see how it adds more glow in the summer.

I have tried tons of milky toners, and while there are many good ones on the market as well as in my skincare closet, this one is the queen. It’s the perfect consistency - not too thin or thick, it’s not sticky, absorbs into the skin quickly, and is hydrating. That is every box I need checked for a milky toner as a dry skin girly. It’s the perfect first step in my skincare routine whether on a lazy day off or busy work day. I take advantage of sales so I never have to pay full price but even if I had to, I would. It’s just that good!

If I could give zero stars I would. I have combo skin, I would not say I have sensitive skin, but certain products can make me break out if there are pore cloggingingredients. I checked the ingredients of this forst along with the rave reviews, all seemed OK, nothing comedogenic, and sounded moisturizing. I used this product at 10am, one time, and by 3pm my skin felt tight and dry, and I had about 6 bumps starting on my cheeks and chin.....now I have 10+ bumps and they are red and huge....these are not pimples, seem to be irritation of some kind. I used the product ONCE with no other new products....returned this so fast....there are so many other waaaaaaay better south Korean skin care products out there at half the cost and way better ingredients....im baffled at the positive reviews, however everyone's skin is different....but hard pass.
