Review for the Laneige cream skin refiner-The market is flooded with skincare products and the influencer’s influence takes this to the next level. An urge to buy things without having the need to. One such product is ‘toner’.

I always used to wonder why are toners important, what is the need to add an extra layer of the product and why should I spend my penny on it?

After adding toner to my skincare for three years now, I know how they make a difference. Today, I will be reviewing the LANEIGE CREAM SKIN REFINER in this post.

Being on the oilier side, I use plum green tea toner in summers but during winter, I crave something hydrating. After doing my research and the long-pending one to get my hands on, I finally purchased a Laneige cream refiner.

Many people like me get confused as to what the actual product is? Is it a toner or a lotion or an emulsion 😕? well, it’s a creamy toner. According to me, hydration in a bottle with a thin lotion-like consistency. Very much suitable for dry skin beauties all around the year and in winters for oily beauties.

How to use the Laneige cream skin refiner?

Laneige cream skin refiner is basically a creamy toner that when applied gives a very dewy finish to the skin. The best way to apply any toner is to pat it on the face till it dries. After facing your wash, take a small amount of toner on your palm and pat it. Trust me you will glow ⚡.

My take on the Laneige cream skin refiner-

I have been eyeing this product for so long but didn’t find any details about what is it or how it works. But after reading customer reviews about it, I finally made up my mind.

Waiting for my plum green tea toner to finish (yes, I have a good habit of finishing my products first and then moving on to the next product), I purchased Laneige cream skin refiner.

After washing my face with Avene cleansing gel, I applied this cream refiner as a toner in my skincare routine. I was so surprised by it. the glow and hydration it gives are not expected of a toner. Fell in love with it and I knew that this refiner is going to be my holy grail during hotter months as a moisturizer for sure.

I don’t think, I would be needing a separate moisturizer in summers. well, I will definitely update you all about how it behaves without moisturizer on its own.

If I were to ask about repurchasing it, I am definitely going to buy it again and would highly recommend it to you guys as well to give it a try if your pockets allow you to.

P.S.- kindly invest in a travel size first.

My rating for the product- ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
