| Verdict | Bring Green's tea tree + cica toner — Melaleuca alternifolia (tea tree) leaf water + Centella asiatica extract + niacinamide for a multi-pathway acne-and-soothing formulation. Bring Green is Olive Young's own-brand house line, which means accessible pricing with Olive Young's distribution muscle behind it. | Seven ingredients. That is the entire formula. And it works better than toners with fifty. The 91% astragalus root extract provides deep, lasting hydration with anti-inflammatory benefits that calm reactive skin on contact. The viscous texture layers beautifully — apply 2-3 skins and your face feels like it drank a glass of water. This is the toner that proved K-beauty minimalism is not a compromise. A desert island product for many skincare enthusiasts. |
