I have been using this toner for about 1.5 years it works really great with my sensitive skin (I have Keratosis Polaris/Eczema) it doesn’t irritate my skin at all.

If you have oily skin this is a great toner. It didn't feel moisturizing enough for me, so I just use it on summer days. I won't be repurchasing but just for that exact reason, otherwise it's a great product.
Absorbs somewhat quickly into the skin, leaving a refreshing sensation. Has no smell.
