Overview

This essence toner from Anua centers on peach extract along with niacinamide, ceramide and panthenol, a combination built to brighten, hydrate and soothe in one step. It is labeled for all skin types and marketed as a gentle exfoliating essence that can double as a makeup prep step, which fits the glass skin routine it is positioned around.

The 8.45 fluid ounce bottle is a generous size for a daily use toner, and the formula is described as natural with a peach scent rather than being fragrance free. Niacinamide is the headline active here, and it is one of the most studied ingredients for supporting the look of an even, brighter complexion.

With 983 reviews and a 4.6 star average, this is a well established pick with a large review base to back it up, even though monthly purchase volume is more modest at 77 recent buys.

Cons

Performance notes

Niacinamide is a well studied ingredient for supporting the appearance of an even skin tone and a smoother looking texture, while ceramide and panthenol work alongside it to support the skin barrier and help with hydration. Peach extract adds an antioxidant boost consistent with the brand's brightening claims.
