[Skincare Diary 💧✨] Tried the Round Lab Dokdo Toner... was I supposed to feel something?? 🫠🌊


okay sooo... i finally got my hands on the ✨iconic✨ Dokdo Toner by Round Lab after seeing it on literally every “Korean girl skincare secrets” TikTok ever 🧴🎥 and like… idk y’all… maybe my skin is just built different 😬

here’s the vibe breakdown 💅
☁️ texture: watery AF (like blink and it’s gone)
🌿 scent: none, which is nice i guess
🫧 feeling: clean? fresh? but like… emotionally empty

i used it after double cleansing every night for 2 weeks straight 🧼🧖🏻‍♀️ doing my cute lil pat-pat with the hands like all the girlies do 👋💕 and honestly? it just felt like my face got wet... and then dry again. that’s it.

💧 did it break me out? nope!
💧 did it hydrate? maybe? kinda?? i mean my skin wasn’t thirsty but it also wasn’t like “omg quenched”
💧 did it change my life? bestie no. not even close.

ingredients are chill, nothing offensive 🙅🏻‍♀️ no fragrance, no alcohol, we love a sensitive skin moment 💖 but like... deep sea water from Ulleungdo? okayyy… let me go drink a Fiji water and pretend I’m dewy too 😌

in conclusion:
✨ it didn’t hurt me
✨ it didn’t save me
✨ it’s giving ✨background character✨ energy

 

 

 


⭐️ overall rating: 6.8/10
would i finish the bottle? sure.
would i repurchase? mmm… maybe if it was 50% off and i felt boring that day 🤷🏻‍♀️

if you're new to skincare and just want something super safe, this might work for you 💁🏻‍♀️ but if you're expecting a glow-up in a bottle? this ain’t it babe 🙅🏻‍♀️

anyway back to my hunt for ✨moisture that actually hits✨ — open to recs if anyone’s found the one 🕵️‍♀️💦

    I feel like this toner only works if you already have decent skin and just want something gentle to sandwich layers with. I used it between a snail essence + creamy moisturizer and it played nice, but yeah… not a solo performer 😅

    Pros
    Super gentle (even on angry skin)
    No fragrance or alcohol = barrier-safe
    Great for layering, doesn’t pill
    Huge bottle for a decent price 💸

    Cons
    Hydration is mid at best
    No visible glow or skin improvement
    The bottle opening lowkey makes me irrationally mad
    Feels kinda pointless if your skin isn’t already irritated

    This was my first Korean toner 😅 so I don’t have anything to compare it to BUT, my skin didn’t freak out!! That’s a win?? I’ve got sensitive cheeks and oily forehead and it didn’t make either worse.
    Not sure if it’s doing anything but it feels nice and clean after I wash my face. Kinda like a reset button. I might try something with more hydration later but for now, it’s not bad!

    Yes I much prefer this over any other toner during summer!! I personally love using softening serum (I use sungboon editor apple peel ampoule) and it feels a little bit too much with rice toner(which I normally LOVE) so I keep coming back to this thing every year 😆😙
