Our verdict

This is the unscented version of Klairs' original Supple Preparation Toner, built specifically for people whose skin reacted to the small amount of essential oil in the original — the reformulation strips that out entirely while keeping the rest of the ingredient list intact. What's left is a genuinely thoughtful, low-irritant hydrating toner: betaine and glycerin for humectant hydration, licorice root and centella asiatica for calming, beta-glucan and panthenol for barrier support, and a supporting cast of amino acids (arginine, lysine, proline) that function as additional humectants. Sodium ascorbyl phosphate appears as a stable, low-irritation vitamin C derivative, and copper tripeptide-1 shows up near the very end of the list — present, but almost certainly at a marketing-relevant rather than clinically meaningful concentration given its position. The formula is essential-oil-free, fragrance-free, and built with sensitive skin as the clear priority throughout, which is consistent with the brand's broader 'simple skincare' positioning. The realistic read: this isn't a treatment toner built around one powerful active, it's a gentle, well-rounded hydrating step that layers calming and humectant ingredients rather than delivering a single dramatic result — which is exactly the point for the sensitive skin it's designed around.

Frequently asked

What's the difference between this and the regular Klairs Supple Preparation Toner?
This unscented version removes the small amount of essential oil present in the original formula, aimed at people whose skin reacted to that fragrance component. The rest of the formula — the humectants, centella, licorice and amino acids — is otherwise the same supportive, sensitive-skin-focused base.
Does copper tripeptide-1 in this toner do anything meaningful?
It's present near the very end of the ingredient list, which suggests a low, likely marketing-relevant rather than clinically significant concentration. The toner's real value comes from its humectant and calming ingredients (betaine, glycerin, centella, licorice, beta-glucan) rather than the peptide.
Is this toner good for sensitive or reactive skin?
Yes, it's specifically built for that — essential-oil-free, fragrance-free, and formulated around calming ingredients like centella asiatica and licorice root alongside gentle humectants. It's a reasonable, low-risk hydrating step for skin that reacts easily to more heavily fragranced or actives-forward toners.
What is the score based on?
The score comes from the same Pure Moonlight ingredient analyzer used across the whole site. It weighs safety, barrier support, acne and comedogenic risk, and active-ingredient strength, so this product's score is directly comparable to any ingredient page here.
