Why You’ll Love It
Balancing Tuner is a 120mL medicated toner that curbs excess sebum to fight shine and stickiness while adding moisture. Its active ingredient Rice Power No.6 works directly on the oil glands to reduce oil at the source, with skin-balancing extracts, alum, and a vitamin C derivative. It refines pores for a clear, balanced complexion, in a green floral scent.
How to Work It Into Your Routine
1. Take a coin-sized amount on a cotton pad or your palm.
2. Pat it over the skin until it absorbs.
3. Use after your medicated serum, if you use one.

Words From Our Community
Honest reviews from skincare lovers around the globe.
I have oily skin that gets shiny within an hour of washing my face, but when I use this in the morning, I feel like the shine is kept to a minimum in the morning (it gets shiny in the afternoon...). It has a watery texture and is very refreshing. It contains a strong amount of ethanol, so if you have rough skin, it may sting or cause redness, so those with sensitive skin should be careful. It only moisturizes slightly, so I think it's best for people who want a refreshing feel.
I have combination skin that gets quite shiny during my lunch break, so I always have to touch up my makeup. I use separate skincare for the T-zone and other areas, so these are my impressions after using it only on the T-zone. It doesn't completely eliminate the shine, and although it still bothers me around lunchtime, I do feel like it's gotten less oily. I'd like to try other products that suppress sebum secretion, so I'm not sure if I'll repurchase, but I liked it so much that I don't think I'll ever go back to lotions that don't claim to suppress sebum secretion.
I haven't felt any definitive effects yet, but I'm looking forward to seeing the effects of Rice Power No. 6.
I use it on my nose and forehead, where I have a lot of oil. I feel like the oil is less than when I don't use it. It was fine on my nose, but it made my forehead a little itchy, so it might not be suitable for winter, when oil production is lower. I think my impressions will change if I try it in the summer, so I'll write another review then.
I started to worry about my pores, so I did some research and found this product to be good, so I gave it a try. I definitely feel like my pores are no longer a concern, and it really does seem to penetrate! I've been using alcohol-free products up until now, but even though this one contains alcohol, I can use it without feeling any irritation!
