Ingredients Explained

Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.
So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.
You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!

Smells great, can be irritating when my skin is already feeling sensitive, haven’t seen much improvement in skin tone
Smell is overpowering but goes away as it dries. I bought it because of the aloe and cucumber extract. As much as I want to like it I can't justify the price with the lack of results. It can irritate my skin and isn't as soothing as I thought it would be. 🫤

I wanted to love this but I believe citric acid is a risk for those with sensitive skin. I'm not sure why this product would contain citric acid and also gear towards sensitive skin. Overall, not a fan due to the irritation it causes. It's defiantly a nice toner otherwise for those who aren't as sensitive prone! It does clean the skin well and doesn’t leave the skin feeling dry.
Loved the smell and consistency, but I hated the design of the bottle. The lid made it hard to work with due to the consistency of the toner. My skin looked brighter after consistent use, but I ultimately decided not to repurchase due to the lid.
