Key actives
Ascorbic Acidantioxidant
Ascorbic Acid is pure vitamin C, the most researched form and also the least stable: it needs a low pH and airtight packaging to stay active. It is an antioxidant used for the look of dullness and uneven tone. It is the entry this toner is named after, and the list carries it.
Niacinamideactive
Niacinamide is vitamin B3, and it is the most studied active in Korean formulation. The panel names it fourth on this toner's list, beside Ascorbic Acid.
Allantoinactive
Allantoin is a comfrey-derived compound used to condition skin and soften the outer layer so it feels smoother. It is one of the standard additions to a formula built for easily irritated skin. The panel names it tenth on this toner's list, beside Ascorbic Acid.
Adenosineactive
Adenosine is a nucleoside that Korea's own cosmetic authority recognises as a wrinkle-care functional ingredient, which is why it appears on so many Korean lists at a low level. It is used for the look of fine lines and is stable and well tolerated. It is named eleventh on this toner's list, alongside Ascorbic Acid.
Dipotassium Glycyrrhizateactive
Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate is a water-soluble salt derived from licorice root. It is named twenty-first on this toner's list, alongside Ascorbic Acid.
How to use
- Sweep across a cleansed face and neck with a cotton pad or press in with clean hands, then continue with the rest of the routine without rinsing.
Where does this toner go in my routine?
Straight after cleansing, morning and evening, while the face is still damp. Anything thinner than a toner goes on before it, and anything richer goes on after. If you are adding it to a routine you already like, give it a week on its own first, so what you see is the Ascorbic Acid and not three changes at once.
Is this the Korean-market toner or a US version?
The Korean-market one, Ascorbic Acid and all. We match this toner to its Korean barcode before it reaches the shelf, which is the check that tells you which market release you are holding.
Does this toner contain fragrance?
Yes. The ingredient list names Benzyl Alcohol, Citral, Citronellol and Geraniol. They sit on the panel printed on this page, so you can read the position for yourself before you buy. If fragrance components are something you avoid, this toner is not the one.
What else is on the list besides Ascorbic Acid?
Niacinamide, Allantoin and Adenosine. The order they are printed in on this toner's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Ascorbic Acid sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid and Barosma Betulina (Buchu) Leaf Extract.

How it works
The Pink Aloe Vitamin C Soothing & Brightening Toner is a 250ml toner, used straight after cleansing, morning and evening, while the face is still damp. The antioxidant it is built around is Ascorbic Acid, named twenty-fourth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Niacinamide, Allantoin and Adenosine, so the antioxidant is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Ascorbic Acid stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the toner format rather than by the list alone. This is the Original Korean Formula, the toner APRILSKIN sells in Korea, Ascorbic Acid and all.
Worth knowing
- Patch test this toner on a small area and wait a day before using it more widely, especially with Ascorbic Acid on the list.
- This list names Benzyl Alcohol, Citral and Citronellol, so skip it if fragrance components are something you avoid.

Niacinamide helps reduce the appearance of pores in a few ways. By strengthening the skin barrier and improving elasticity, pores appear less noticeable and more even.
