ETUDE SoonJung pH 5.5 Relief Toner 200ml – Korean Calming Toner for Sensitive Skin
Daily Soothing Toner for Sensitive Skin
Soothe. Hydrate. Comfort.
A lightweight Korean toner with panthenol, madecassoside, glycerin and betaine for soft, hydrated, comfortable-feeling skin after cleansing. Green tea extract, Scutellaria baicalensis root extract and tocopherol complement conditioning care, while the watery pH 5.5 formula layers easily beneath serum and moisturiser.
Patch test before first use if sensitive or reactive. Soothing ingredients and a pH 5.5 formula do not guarantee irritation-free use. Avoid direct eye contact and stop if irritation develops.
Skin type: Normal, dry, dehydrated, combination, oily and sensitive-feeling skin seeking lightweight hydration.
Soothing daily care
Madecassoside and botanical conditioning ingredients complement a comfort-focused routine for stressed-feeling skin, without treating persistent redness or skin conditions.
Moisture-barrier comfort
Panthenol supports moisturising and soothing care, helping dry, tight-feeling skin feel more comfortable after cleansing.
pH 5.5 formula
The labelled pH 5.5 describes a mildly acidic formula for your daily toner step. pH alone does not determine gentleness or replace assessing individual tolerance.
Lightweight hydration
Glycerin and betaine attract moisture for soft, hydrated-feeling skin without a rich or greasy layer.
Texture
A fresh, watery toner that absorbs quickly with a light, non-sticky feel. Apply a single layer or add thin layers where skin wants extra moisture.
How to use
- After cleansing, apply with clean hands or a soft cotton pad.
- Pat gently until absorbed. Avoid rubbing if skin feels sensitive.
- Apply two or three thin layers if wanted and tolerated.
- Follow with serum and moisturiser; finish with SPF during the day.
- Use morning and evening if tolerated.
Patch test first if reactive. Avoid direct eye contact and discontinue if irritation occurs.
Skin type
Normal, dry, dehydrated, combination and oily skin wanting a lightweight hydration step. Its comfort-focused formula may appeal to sensitive-feeling skin, subject to individual tolerance.
Very dry skin will still need moisturiser. If skin is actively irritated, keep your routine simple rather than assuming a calming toner will resolve it.
