CONCLUSION
Pro:
The lavender water, rose water and orange fruit extract make my skin feel hydrated immediately I use it. It leaves my skin feeling supple and plump all day long.
My skin looked noticeably brighter and has a healthy glow.
The formula includes corn, coconut and potatoes which lightly exfoliates my skin without stripping in spite of the alcohol in it
It has my favorite acid, lactic acid, which reduces fine lines and wrinkles, improves skin tone, fades pigmentation, controls and prevents oiliness and breakouts, acne scarring, evens out skin tone and has skin lightening benefits. All of these qualities are similar to glycolic acid, but lactic is gentler therefore suitable for the most sensitive skin.
It has a ph. of 5.5 which is good. Skin has a natural acidity between 4.5-5.5. Some people use cleansers that strip their skin, causing an imbalance of the skin’s ph, which leads to all sorts of skin disorders from flared skin, eczema etc. In such cases, by using a toner that is not too acidic it helps bring your skin back to it natural level preventing any conditions. This is a brief explanation of skin ph. l will post more in depth information in the coming weeks.
Cons:
It has a trace amount of alcohol in it. This is a con because some skin types cannot tolerate alcohol; even if it’s an insignificant amount
It has some parabens in it to preserve the formula.
The ingredient list is overwhelming.
The product does exactly what it claims to do and I cannot be mad at that. However, if you have any personal issues with using alcohol toners I understand why you may want to pass on this. But for those that don’t, this is a must try.
