Updated Review: COSRX Light Fit Real Water Toner to Cream

First, let me just say how innovative this product is! Creating a 2 in 1 product that carries the 2 basic steps in skincare which is the toner and moisturizer. This is also great for those on the go gals who don't have the luxury of time to layer products in the morning.

Love the packaging! 💗 It looks fresh and clean (minimalistic)

I love that it comes in a pump nozzle bottle.

It is a gel-cream that turns into water droplets once applied on the skin.  It is a lightweight moisturizer and a hydrating toner that feels comfortable on the skin. I don't feel any greasiness at all after it sets. It has a light citrusy scent (probably because of the Bergamot oil present in the ingredients). It is hydrating enough for my sensitive oily-dehydrated skin. I tried two layers of this and it still feels comfortable. It is well absorbed by my skin thus living it supple and brightened afterward.  I haven't experienced any bad reaction (tingling, tiny bumps, redness, inflammation, pimple) on my second day using it. I'll still be continuing to use this product and further see its potential.

The texture is everything! 💖

See the water droplets?! Cool! isn't it? 😍

July 19, 2019 (2wks mark updated review)

Here is an updated review of the Cosrx Light Fit Real Water Toner to Cream after 2 weeks straight use.

On the first 2 days, I haven't seen nor experienced any skin irritation and allergies right after. I also did a patch test before using this product and it didn't show any reactions right away. Usually, my skin is reactive and gets irritated to certain ingredients that are not suited to my skin type ( fragrance oil, alcohol, essential oil, heavy occlusives and such) which is oily-combination, dehydrated, acne-prone sensitive skin. Ooh!! That's a lot of skin concern to deal with! Right?! So I thought that this product might work just fine and thus I decided to continue using it. Then slowly my skin reacts differently each day upon using it, I started noticing tiny red bumps on my cheeks, around my nose and chin. I also noticed that my skin starts to get flush and sometimes itchy right after use and it develop rough, clogged pores almost like blackheads on my cheeks and chin. That's a warning sign for me that I should stop using the product and I am certain by this time that I am developing an allergic reaction to it and some of its ingredients which is the "Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Fruit Oil" and is used as a fragrance in this product this also has silicones in it in the form of cyclopentasiloxane and cyclohexasiloxane. 

Here are list of ingredients you might want to check prior trying this product: 😊 

I am also aware and did research on its ingredients containing a fragrance oil (Bergamot Oil). But still, I tested this product out because I don't want to judge the product too quickly without trying it first and have a personal experience to it and end with a proper review. I want my review to be honest and based on personal experience as possible. I don't want to mislead others that this product is good or bad because our skin is different in so many ways and is reactive differently to each product. Unfortunately, this product didn't work out so well for me. But it might work out on you.

I would probably recommend this to those who have normal, oily-combination skin that seeks lightweight moisturizer and a hydrating toner. But for my gals which has dry and very dehydrated skin, you would probably be looking for a much nourishing, rich moisturizer than this one as this will only suck all the moisture it can give. Tho you could still layer this up according to your preference besides it still can give you the moisturized effect without the greasy feels. Lastly, for my gals who have the same skin situation like I do (sensitive skin), I do recommend that you always have to check on the ingredients that might irritate or cause acne prior trying a certain products.

**Take note: Every skin is different and might react differently to some certain ingredients. What works for may not work for me and others (vice versa). Always take it with a grain of salt. 😉

**btw! I won this product in IG @cosrx_philippines by joining at their contest posting my thoughts and review about the Cosrx Two in One Poreless Toner. I squeal in excitement the moment I saw the notification on my phone I was tagged as one of the lucky winners. This is my first time ever and I am happy receiving it from the first Kbeauty brand that I fell in love with.

Hope this review is helpful for you in many ways possible.

Thank you! 💖
