[REVIEW] Son&Park Beauty Water

Hello guys! I want to talk to you guys about the popular Korean beauty brand, Son&Park. 
They are known for their Beauty Water which is basically a toner. Like a regular toner, it helps to balance the pH of your skin and double cleanses. It also claims that it exfoliates the skin and it's not as drying as most facial toners out there on the market. That's an advantage to those who have dry skin. 

At first sight, I thought the bottle was made of frosted glass, but it turns out that it's actually plastic, but good quality plastic. It won't break easily, it's pretty firm and strong. I also like that I can look through the bottle so I know how much I've used it.

This has got to be one of my favourite beauty product bottles ever, because it's so simple and classy at the same time. It doesn't have crazy colours or patterns or designs around the bottle. The only thing I wished they made was a cap that flips, not a twistable cap, but I still love it. 

At first, it didn't smell that pleasant (maybe because it's new?), but after using it for 2-3 times, it develops a nicer and refreshing scent, which is a little odd but I dismissed the thought and continued using it.
It is absolutely amazing! I am impressed, very impressed. This toner definitely did something to my face. It made it brighter and cleaner. I don't really know how to explain it but it's just really soothing and hydrating for my skin. I felt moisturised as well, which is kinda weird coming from a facial toner. It also did sort of remove the residue of my makeup that was left on my skin. It can also work as a cleansing water as it removes the makeup residue effectively.
It's very gentle on the skin, but it did sting just a little (sometimes, you might not feel it because it's that little), especially during the first time. My face was quite problematic during that time but I could see improvements with my face when I started using this product. I'm not sure if it's this or my other skin care products though. Also, it contains a pH of 5.
I poured a dime-sized amount onto my Daiso Cotton Pad (they are strangely good for $2).
This is what was on my face the whole day. It's quite mild, but you can definitely see something on the pad. A bit of makeup residue and other things.

It has a cooling sensation and this could work as a mist. A base before makeup and a makeup setter. It's quite a versatile product and it's a multi-tasking product so it's a plus, as well.

Price: 25,000KRW (I bought it for 20,000KRW as it was on sale)
Store Location: Olive Young branches, Sokoglam
Size/Amount of Product: 340ml
Would I repurchase it? Yes, obviously. 

Overall Comment:
It's a really good toner. The price for this toner is quite reasonable, it's a multi-tasking product, versatile, doesn't dry out the skin, gentle, cleanses effectively, and exfoliates (which you find very rare in most facial toners). Anyone with any skin types (no matter if you're oily, dry, combination or normal, even for those who have sensitive skin) can definitely use this without it causing break-outs, little blemishes or any side effects in general.

Pros:
-exfoliates
-balances pH of skin
-not drying for skin
-affordable
-multi-tasking product
-suitable for all skin types
-cleanses effectively

Cons:

-twistable cap, difficult to open
-heavy
-has an odd smell when first use
