Take the skin test and I'll show you how suitable this product is for you.
Take the skin testHydrate, exfoliate, and nourish your skin with EQQUALBERRY’s Swimming Pool Toner, a gentle, low-pH formula designed to refresh and renew even the most sensitive skin. Infused with 8 layers of hyaluronic acid, this toner delivers deep, lasting hydration while naturally derived protease enzymes provide mild exfoliation removing dead skin cells and unclogging pores without irritation. The antioxidant-rich 5 Berry Complex, featuring extracts from blueberry, cranberry, raspberry, and more, helps brighten the complexion, fight signs of aging, and promote a smoother, more radiant look. Free from alcohol, parabens, and benzene, and made entirely with EWG green-grade ingredients, this toner is your skin’s daily reset for moisture, glow, and balance.
Swimming Pool Toner is a watery-light toner from Eqqualberry, a brand based in Korea. The formula is built mainly around hydration. The ingredient list runs to 22 ingredients, each broken down in full below.
By its ingredient list the formula reads as very light — essentially a water-and-humectant base with little emollient weight. With almost no emollient load it should absorb quickly and finish close to matte. Hydration is handled by Butylene Glycol, Glycerin and Propanediol, 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 Butylene Glycol, Glycerin, Propanediol and Betaine.
Soothing: Moderate. Ingredients aimed at visible redness and reactivity, and here that comes from Panthenol, Allantoin, Beta-glucan and Euterpe Oleracea Fruit 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.
