What is a Korean toner and how is it different?
In Korea, toner (called 'skin' or 'skin toner') is usually a gentle, hydrating step that preps and balances skin after cleansing, rather than a harsh astringent. It's meant to add moisture and help following layers absorb, not to strip or tighten the skin.
