How it works
The Retinol Green Tea PDRN Skin Booster Toner is a 170ml toner, used straight after cleansing, morning and evening, while the face is still damp. The active it is built around is Retinol, named sixteenth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Niacinamide, Adenosine and Lactobacillus Ferment Lysate, so the active is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Retinol 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 innisfree sells in Korea, Retinol and all.
Key benefits
- Retinol, the active this toner is built around
- Niacinamide and Adenosine on the same list, actives
- Lactobacillus Ferment Lysate on the same list, a ferment
- Tocopherol on the same list, an antioxidant
- Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract and Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil further down the same list
- Polyglycerin-3 and Panthenol further down the same list
Key actives
Retinolactive
Retinol is the alcohol form of vitamin A and the strongest retinoid available without a prescription. Skin converts it in two steps to retinoic acid, and it is used at night, at low percentages, for the look of fine lines and rough texture. 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. It is named fifth on this toner's list, alongside Retinol.
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 thirteenth on this toner's list, alongside Retinol.
Lactobacillus Ferment Lysateferment
Lactobacillus Ferment Lysate is the ferment with the bacterial cells broken open, so their contents are in the formula too. It is a conditioning ferment used in barrier-focused products. It is named third on this toner's list, alongside Retinol.
Tocopherolantioxidant
Tocopherol is vitamin E. It is an oil-soluble antioxidant that protects the oils in a formula from going rancid and works on skin as an emollient, and it is regularly paired with vitamin C because each keeps the other going for longer. The panel names it seventeenth on this toner's list, beside Retinol.
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 Retinol and not three changes at once.
Is this the Korean-market toner or a US version?
The Korean-market one, Retinol 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.
What else is on the list besides Retinol?
Niacinamide, Adenosine and Lactobacillus Ferment Lysate. The order they are printed in on this toner's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Retinol sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Tocopherol, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract and Glycine Soja (Soybean) Oil.

How to use
- Apply it straight after cleansing, on skin that has not had time to dry out.
- A small pool in the palms covers the face and neck, pressed in with flat hands rather than cotton wool.
- Follow immediately with your essence or serum while the surface is still slightly damp.
- Avoid wiping it on with a cotton pad, because wiping wastes most of the liquid and drags at the skin.
Worth knowing
- Patch test this toner on a small area and wait a day before using it more widely, especially with Retinol on the list.
- Retinol is on this list, so keep this toner to the evening and build the nights up slowly rather than starting nightly.

What skin-care professionals say about the key actives in this formula, quoted from the medical sources linked beside each.
Vitamin A has a molecular structure that's tiny enough to get into the lower layers of your skin, where it finds and boosts collagen and elastin, which is a protein that strengthens your skin's flexibility.

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.
