Product details

A bottle of No.5+ Glutathione Vitamin Concentrated Toner on a cream table between a sprig of sea buckthorn berries and a centella leaf

Brightening first step

A toner as enriched as an essence, with niacinamide, liposomal glutathione and vitamins C and E for a brighter, more even complexion.

Numbuzin’s No.5+ toner starts complexion care from the first step. Its lightweight, essence-like texture absorbs fast and boosts skin’s intake of antioxidants, for dull, tired or rough skin and the dark spots that come with it, while staying gentle enough to be irritation-tested.

  • Liposomal glutathione

    The brightening antioxidant, wrapped in lecithin liposomes so it is delivered into skin more effectively, per Numbuzin.

    No. 17, 18 of 35 on the list

  • Vitamins C + E

    A vitamin C derivative and pure vitamin C with vitamin E, for antioxidant care and a more radiant look.

    No. 13, 25, 28 of 35 on the list

  • Panthenol + madecassoside

    Soothing and hydrating support that keeps the brightening step comfortable.

    No. 20, 27 of 35 on the list

  • Peptide complex

    Six peptides to help restore skin’s condition, alongside arbutin and ceramide.

    Soak

    Soak a cotton pad with the toner after cleansing.

  2. 2

    Sweep

    Wipe gently over the face for light resurfacing and a more even-looking complexion.

  3. 3

    Mask

    On dull days, rest soaked pads on the cheeks as a quick toner mask.

  4. 4

    Boost

    Pat a little more in by hand like an essence, then follow with the No.5+ serum and sunscreen by day.

Good to know

  • Recommended for dark spots, hyperpigmentation, dull or tired skin and rough, dry skin, per Numbuzin.
  • Skin irritation test completed. Made and tested in Korea.
  • A brightening toner: wear sunscreen daily while you use it.
  • Comes in 200 mL and 30 mL bottles. It was formerly sold as No.5+ Vitamin Boosting Essential Toner, so the 200 mL may arrive under that name.
