Centella and polyglutamic acid hydrate and calm skin; may cause irritation.

What the community says

This milky toner uses cica and polyglutamic acid for hydration and barrier support. It suits dry, sensitive, and tretinoin users needing lightweight moisture. Some report it layers poorly under makeup or irritates sensitive, acne-prone skin during active retinoid use, so YMMV.
