Betaine
A humectant that helps maintain moisture balance, leaving skin feeling soft and comfortable.
ETUDE SoonJung pH 5.5 Relief Toner is a 350ml watery step for use immediately after cleansing. It spreads quickly across the face with hands or a cotton pad, making it easy to add moisture without the weight of a milky or essence-style toner.
The current 15-ingredient formula places propanediol, glycerin and betaine near the top. Panthenol and madecassoside support a comfort-focused formula, while green tea and Scutellaria root extracts add lightweight skin-conditioning ingredients. There is no added fragrance in the published list.
Choose it when skin feels tight, dry or easily overwhelmed after cleansing and you want a simple toner that layers without a rich finish. The pH 5.5 number describes the formula; it does not make the toner an exfoliant. Very reactive skin should still patch test, and one layer may feel sufficient for combination skin.
Pat a small amount over clean skin, then repeat only if more moisture is wanted. A cotton pad can be used for even coverage or as a brief toner pack, but avoid rubbing. Follow with serum and moisturizer before the water-light layer fully dries.
