Anua's Heartleaf 77% Soothing Toner is a watery, hydrating toner built around heartleaf extract. Anua describes it as made to calm irritation and moisturise the skin.
Here is what it is, who it suits and how to use it. Sources are linked at the end.
What it is
A lightweight toner that is 77% heartleaf (Houttuynia cordata) water, according to Anua, with several forms of hyaluronic acid for hydration.
Anua describes it as fragrance-free, non-comedogenic and low-irritation.
Key ingredients
Heartleaf, also called fish mint or houttuynia, is a plant extract widely used in Korean skincare for calming-feeling products.
The ingredient list also includes panthenol, betaine, centella asiatica extract and chamomile extract.
Who it suits
Anua positions it for sensitive-feeling and reactive skin, and our listing describes it as suitable for all skin types, especially irritated, acne-prone or sensitive skin.
If you're being treated for acne, check with your dermatologist before adding any toner.
How to use it
- Cleanse your face thoroughly.
- Apply the toner with a cotton pad or your fingertips, as Anua suggests, and gently pat it over your face.
- Follow with serum and moisturiser. It can be used morning and night.
Where it fits in your routine
Toner goes after cleansing and before serums. Anua's matching heartleaf cleansing oil and lotion make a simple set if you like the line.
