Isntree Hyaluronic Acid Toner has a very minimal and gentle formula. Apart from hyalyronic acid, this toner contains some other great humectants and extracts ( with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and soothing properties). Doesn’t contain anything that would trigger acne or irritation. I had been hearing a lot of good things about this toner for some time and with the recent weather, I found my skin drying out a little with all the time spent indoors under the 8th wonder of the world (if you come from the tropics that is), air conditioning. So I thought I would give this Hyaluronic Acid Toner a try and, boy oh boy, I wasn’t disappointed.

Touch: our fermented sugar is not only good to the skin, but it also feels great on the skin. It gives a nice “soft touch” feeling and makes the products pleasant to use. Well, not anymore! The Kbeauty trend has completely turned this on its head and toners these days are often alcohol free and often possess other forms of skin benefits such as, ironically, moisturisation! Unlike the watery consistency of most toners, the Isntree Hyaluronic Acid Toner has a slightly viscous consistency. It comes in a rather simple 200ml clear plastic bottle and it was pretty easy to dispense. Centella Asiatica also often shows up in products that try to treat cellulite or striae. Of course, it cannot make a miracle but it might have some effect via regulating microcirculation and normalizing the metabolism in the cells of connective tissues.

Oh, and one more thing: glabridin seems to be also an antioxidant, which is just one more reason to be happy about licorice root extract on an ingredient list. kDa version: apart from moisturizing, this sizemight also help the skin to repair itself by increasing its self-defense. It is also claimed to boost the wound healing process and is especially helpful for sensitive skin types (acne, rosacea, inflammation-related skin diseases). After my experience with the Isntree Hyaluronic Acid Toner, I was super excited to try out the Isntree Hyaluronic Acid Toner Plus! Madecassoside can also help in burn wound healing through increasing antioxidant activity and enhancing collagen synthesis. Asiaticoside was shown to increase antioxidant levels on rats skin when applied at 0.2%.

Hyaluronic acid is a very safe ingredient since it’s a naturally occurring substance in our body. Hence, there was no irritation and hasn’t caused any breakouts so far. Not only that, but I feel like it also reduces redness. pH Level : 5.5 (+ -). It comes in a 200 ml clear plastic bottle and it’s very easy to dispense. (The newer version comes in 200ml and 400ml as well.)

There is just one catch regarding glabridin and licorice: the amount of glabridin in commercial licorice extracts can vary a lot. We have seen extracts with only 4% glabridin as well as 40% glabridin. The latter one is a very-very expensive ingredient, so if you are after the depigmenting properties try to choose a product that boasts its high-quality licorice extract.Da version: this is the size that is claimed to be able to absorb into the skin and plump up wrinkles, so it is used mainly as an "anti-aging ingredient" I swear it’s a coincidence that I’ve recently been almost only been reviewing K-beauty toners on the blog! Hey, what can I do when so many of them have been both blowing me away and also been super popular in the skincare community? There has just been so many great toner launches from Korea lately, how could I not tell you about as many of them as possible to help you choose the right one for your skin? And, see, the Isntree Hyaluronic Acid Plus Toner is such a special treasure – especially in this dreary, skin-destroying winter weather – that I absolutely have to review it here on the blog!

My thoughts on Isntree hyaluronic acid toner The Isntree Hyaluronic Acid Toner was first launched in May 2012 but has recently been relaunched in 2019 with a new and improved formulation. The original toner had only a single type Hyaluronic Acid while the 2019 version is now formulated with 3 types.) One of the biological activities of thecentellosides isto be able to stimulate GAGs(glycosaminoglycans - polysaccharides that are part of the liquidy stuff between our skin cells), and especially hyaluronic acid synthesis in our skin. This is probably one of the reasons why Centella Asiatica Extract has nice skin moisturizingproperties that was confirmed by a 25 people, four weeks study along with Centella's anti-inflammatory effects. The Isntree Hyaluronic Acid Toner Plus is meant to be a sort of hybrid between a hydrating toner and an ampoule. Isntree in fact markets this mostly as an ampoule style treatment. So, the “plus” in the name basically hints at this being “more than” just a hydrating toner. With its 5 types of hyaluronic acid (the “basic” HA toner in the transparent bottle has 3), this certainly promises to be a rich and plumping product, though if you want the most extreme, intense hydration level, the Hyaluronic Acid Water Essence with 8 types of HA would be the one to choose. Here at K Beauty UK our all-time favourite ISNTREE product is without a doubt the ISNTREE Green Tea Fresh Toner. A toner that has been specifically designed to reduce the appearance of unwanted blemishes while also working to refine your complexion, the Green Tea Fresh Toner from ISNTREE ensures that your complexion looks and feels fresher and brighter than ever before.
