Silk Peptide EGF Intensive Smoothing Toner — Reddit Reviews
Updated September 30, 2026
Silky, zero-sticky toner that soaks in fast; the Korean skincare crowd loves it.
What the community says
A lightweight toner that people layer for that silky, non-sticky finish and quick absorption. Redditors mostly talk about texture, not big results, so if you want visible actives doing heavy lifting, this probably isn't the star.
What this means for you
What people love

What the science says
Acne
Some evidence

What the studies found
- Most studies found niacinamide helped acne
- Some studies found 4% niacinamide cleared acne about as well as clindamycin
- One study found 4% niacinamide improved red, sore spots, but IPL worked better
- Some research found no clear difference, and a large review said the effects were uncertain
Hyperpigmentation
Some evidence
Niacinamide: 5 studies tested it on its own. See all 24 studies
What the studies found
- All of these studies found niacinamide helped fade dark spots or patches
- In clinical trials, 5% niacinamide faded dark spots more than a placebo
- It also helped when used with salicylic acid peels, more than peels alone
- Used on its own, it helped, but one study found a niacinamide mix worked better
- One study found the fading effect reversed after stopping niacinamide
