Etude House SoonJung pH 5.5 Relief Toner
A lightweight, lightly acidic toner built around the SoonJung line's low-irritation philosophy. It's formulated at pH 5.5 to sit close to skin's natural surface and works as a hydrating first step that leaves the complexion feeling soft and comfortable. The watery texture absorbs quickly without any tacky finish, which makes it an easy fit for sensitive, dry or easily reactive skin, and for anyone who prefers a fuss-free routine.
Key ingredients
-
Panthenol – a well-loved skincare humectant that draws in moisture and helps skin feel hydrated, soft and soothed.
-
Madecassoside – a Centella Asiatica-derived ingredient prized in K-beauty for calming, comforting care and a more even, healthy-looking complexion.
-
Glycerin, Betaine & Propanediol – layered hydrators that support a smooth, supple feel.

Scutellaria Baicalensis Root Extract, Camellia Sinensis (green tea) Leaf Extract & Tocopherol – plant-derived extracts and vitamin E that contribute to a fresh, conditioned look.
The formula is fragrance-free and color-free, and skips mineral oil, silicones, parabens, PEG, polyacrylamide, imidazolidinyl urea and triethanolamine, so it's a sensible pick if you keep your ingredient list short.
