Very mixed feelings about this one
Pros: very effective balm against irritation and redness, great brightening power. Cons: very strong white cast and it pills off awfully. Best used at night as spot treatment in small areas, keep the routine very basic to minimize pilling.

I really liked this toner it seemed like a toner/serum like toner. It was great for my skin . My skin felt hydrated after using it and after my serums and creams would always feel better after using this toner. I would recommend for combination sensitive dry skin. It calms your skin as well. It’s so good.

Very light and soothing, it reduces a little bit of my redness. But remember toners are just toners so don’t expect much results 😅
