Such an underrated product. Its feels really nice on the skin and cleanses deeply.
It's a very good cleanser in general, its foamy texture is very pleasant, it gives a refreshed look and has a very mild, light scent. It cleanses very well but leaves the skin a little dry, so I wouldn't recommend it if you have dehydrated skin.

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