Some By Mi Super Matcha Pore Tightening Toner

It is a lightweight leave-on toner from Some By Mi, sold at Beauty Bar. Made with 83% matcha green tea water, gentle BHA and a centella complex, it refreshes and hydrates skin after cleansing while leaving it looking clarified and pores more refined. Its watery texture suits oily and combination skin especially well, and absorbs quickly without stickiness.

After cleansing, apply the toner to the face using a cotton pad or your hands, gently pressing it into the skin. Follow with serum and moisturiser, and sunscreen in the morning. Use it morning and evening. Because it contains a gentle BHA, introduce it gradually if your skin is not used to exfoliating acids, and always pair with daily sun protection.

It refers to the clarified look and more refined appearance of pores the toner gives after cleansing. The matcha, willow bark and oil-absorbing minerals leave skin feeling fresh and looking smoother, so pores appear less noticeable. As with all cosmetics, this is an appearance effect on the skin's surface rather than a physical change to pore size.

The toner contains willow bark extract, a botanical that Some By Mi describes as a gentle, natural BHA-style ingredient. It is far milder than a classic salicylic-acid exfoliant and is valued for helping skin look clearer and smoother rather than for strong exfoliation. It suits regular use, and as always, daily sunscreen is a good habit alongside any clarifying routine.

Yes, it is a strong match. The lightweight, watery texture, matcha green tea, willow bark and oil-absorbing minerals give a fresh, clarified finish that oily and combination skin tend to love. It leaves skin feeling refreshed rather than greasy or tight, making it an easy daily step to keep the complexion looking balanced and pores more refined.

It contains soothing centella and Houttuynia, which many people appreciate, but it also has a BHA, tea tree and fragrance components, so very reactive skin should approach it carefully. Patch test first, introduce it gradually, and reduce frequency if you notice irritation. If your skin is highly sensitive, a fragrance-free toner may suit you better — our advisors can help.

Matcha — concentrated green tea — makes up 83% of the formula as the water base. As a leave-on product, the green tea stays on the skin, lending the toner its fresh, antioxidant-rich character and a hydrated, comfortable finish. It is the heart of the "Super Matcha" range and pairs well with the gentle BHA for a clarified, refreshed look.
