10% Vitamin C Toner by Elizavecca: Is This The Best K-Beauty Toner?

5 Powerful Benefits of Vitamin C Toner for Glowing Skin

Vitamin C toners often contain additional moisturizing ingredients that help skin retain moisture. Hydrated skin looks plump, smooth, and radiant. Incorporating a Vitamin C toner into your skincare routine can help boost skin’s moisture levels for a healthier, more vibrant appearance.

• Anti-inflammatory:

Do you suffer from redness? Incorporate anti-inflammatory Vitamin C into your skincare routine. Ascorbic acid is known to soothe irritated skin and reduce redness, making it a great choice for those with sensitive or irritated skin conditions such as rosacea. Regular use of a Vitamin C toner can help soothe your skin.

How to use Vitamin C toner?

Before applying your Vitamin C toner, wash your face and neck with a soap or gel appropriate for your skin type. This will remove dirt, oil and makeup, allowing the toner to penetrate better. Always apply your Vitamin C toner to dry skin, to avoid diluting the active ingredients. Now it’s time to apply your Vitamin C toner. There are two ways to do this, depending on the product:

• Cotton pads: Apply a small amount of lotion to a clean cotton pad. Gently wipe the entire face and neck, avoiding the area under the eyes, without applying too much pressure.

• Spray bottle: If the toner comes in a spray bottle, spray it directly onto your face with your eyes closed. Gently massage into skin with your fingers.

Use your Vitamin C toner once or twice a day, depending on the product instructions and your skin’s sensitivity. And don’t forget your sunscreen: Dr Shereen Idris says Vitamin C boosts the effectiveness of sunscreen, so use them together to protect your skin.

Final Verdict

I’m not sure how it works, but the first visible results were seen the morning after I applied Elizavecca’s Real1 10% Vitamin C Toner for the first time. My skin was hydrated, plumped, and glowing. While you won’t see brighter, less pigmented skin in just one application, your skin will definitely feel better, I guarantee it. I have some discoloration around my mouth and nose, so I’m looking forward to seeing it improve. I hope that with regular use, the discoloration will improve.

What would I change about this product? I would put it in a darker bottle so that the light doesn’t degrade the ascorbic acid as quickly. I think the spray bottle itself could be improved a bit. It’s a bit messy every time I use this toner. Everything else is great! It’s hydrating, plumping, energizing, just awesome!
