Take the skin test and I'll show you how suitable this product is for you.
Take the skin testThe Anua Heartleaf 77% Soothing Toner is a highly moisturizing, mildly acidic pH toner infused with 77% houttuynia cordata extract, along with eleven other food-grade ingredients, to soothe skin troubles, regulate the skin’s oil-moisture levels, and protect the skin. The superstar ingredient of this product is Houttuynia Cordata Extract, which is known for its moisturizing, anti-bacterial properties, and most notably, its anti-inflammatory properties. This is greatly effective for calming skin troubles.
Heartleaf 77% Soothing Toner is a lightweight toner from Anua, a brand based in Korea. The formula is built mainly around hydration and soothing. The ingredient list runs to 21 ingredients, each broken down in full below.
By its ingredient list the formula reads as light: water and humectants lead, with emollients kept lower in the order. Hydration is handled by Glycerin, Betaine and Panthenol, humectants that pull water into the upper layers of skin rather than sealing it there.
Hydration: High. Ingredients that pull and hold water in the upper layers of skin, and here that comes from Glycerin, Betaine, Panthenol and Butylene Glycol.
Soothing: High. Ingredients aimed at visible redness and reactivity, and here that comes from Panthenol, Chamomilla Recutita (matricaria) Flower Juice, Centella Asiatica Extract and Houttuynia Cordata Extract.
On richness alone it suits Combination (oily) and Oily skin best, and is the least natural fit for Dry and Combination (dry) skin. Nothing in the list is flagged as a common irritant, which is a reasonable starting point for reactive skin — though a patch test is still the only way to know.
The formula contributes little or nothing on antioxidant protection, oil control, brightening and tone and cell renewal. That is not a fault — most products are not meant to do everything — but if one of those is your priority, this is not the product that will address it.
Reading the full list, the formula is fragrance-free, essential-oil-free, no drying alcohol, paraben-free, silicone-free and microplastic-free. Those claims come from the ingredient list itself, not from the packaging.
It can be used morning and evening. In a routine it goes after cleansing, before serums. Apply to slightly damp skin so the humectants have water to hold on to.
This summary is generated from the product's ingredient list. It is not a review, it is not the brand's own marketing claims, and it does not replace advice from a dermatologist.
