A good daily exfoliator

I have used this as a daily exfoliator, and it is non irritating. My skin is brighter and smoother, I layer it with niacinamide and retinol.

Life saver!!

I have sensitive/combination skin and this toner works wonders! Although it dries out my skin if I don't moisturize after, so be sure not to miss that step. Love this product

I have sensitive, dry but very oily skin and I must say that this is the best toner and it doesn't make my skin feel like its cracking after applying it. At times I forget to apply my serums, especially at night and this toner is always sufficient.

I love this toner! It’s gentle on my skin but you can feel it work on pimples. I find one bottle lasts me close to three months as you only use it at night 🙂
