It means your health, looks, and well-being result from the kinds of food you consume.

Same goes to our skin. Our skin will look good if we take good care of it.

Both having different scent and ability. Rose Petal acts as an antioxidant while cucumber has good cooling effect. Therefore I use cucumber for day, and rose for night. hehe…..

Why do you need a toner after cleansing your face?

It will get rid of any traces of cleanser remaining on your skin, temporarily shrink pores and may even give a moisturizing effect, depending on the ingredients in the toner.

Apply toner on a cotton pad or ball and just swipe all over your skin again paying special attention to areas such as the sides of your nose.

Summary

– Huge content, 355ml…can last very long.

– Vintage like packaging.

– Clear, translucent water based toner, non-sticky.

– I am happy to see this sentence ‘Alcohol-Free Toner’ is printed on the bottle. Because I am quite concern about toner with alcohol content.

– Definitely love the natural and organic contents which doesn’t harm our skin.

– Probably because its formulated with aloe vera, therefore it works well in soothing and moisturizing. I noticed that my T-zone is less oily now.

My Dislike

– The leaking problem from the lid. Not advisable to place in your traveling bag. I transferred it to a spray bottle instead.
