Key ingredient
Centella Asiatica
Centella Asiatica, also known as gotu kola, has been used in traditional medicines for many years. We love this ingredient for its wound healing abilities and anti-inflammatory effects. Centella Asiatica is used in the treatment of small wounds, hypertrophic wounds as well as burns, psoriasis and scleroderma. Centella Asiatica can stimulate fibroblast proliferation and activate the signalling pathway to stimulate collagen production.- Phyto-Soothe Complex

This toner has literally helped save my dry skin! It’s so great because you can layer it to add to the hydration. It’s thicker than a normal toner. I use this 2x per day and it has lasted me quite a long time. The Centella also helps heal my active breakouts/picked breakouts a LOT quicker. It has helped reduce my redness and help keep my barrier in check. Just repurchased it.

Really enjoying this product! I apply 4-5 drops directly to my palms and then press it into my skin, as you would with an essence. The product absorbs like a dream and leaves skin feeling super hydrated and nourished, it does not leave any oily residue or film on the skin. It can easily work as a liquid moisturizer on warmer days when you don’t want too many layers or heavy products.
