Advantages: didnt sting my eyes

Disadvantages: no clean feeling, tingling or nice smells.

My daughter has suffered with spotty and slightly greasy skin for about a year now despite having a healthy diet so I decided to try this after it was recommended by a lady in boots because it contains no perfumes or colours and it supposed to be very natural.

I bought this from ASDA, The toner promises to gently soften skin whilst tightening pores. I thought I should give it a try because my skin isn't lovely either.

The toner comes in a green plastic bottle with a screw top lid that I often put down and then have to have a search for afterwards because I've got terrible memory.The top has a narrow hole where the toner comes from but it comes out really quickly too so you have to be fairly careful.


I put quite a bit of the toner onto a cotton wool pad and rubber it over my face after I'd washed my face and took off my make-up. I didn't feel much of a sensation on my skin, a tiny bit of tingling but I can't say that I felt a burst of freshness or anything special. It doesn't smell either so I didn't feel like my skin smelt or felt very fresh.

You can get this from ASDA for about £2.50 and from boots for £2.99. I've seen it on special a few times at boots where you get deals like two for £4.00 on simple products, so keep a look out!


It doesn't sting my eyes which I was glad of, but I didn't really feel like it did anything! There was a small amount of dirt on the cotton wool pad but not a lot considering that I had already washed my face. I continued use for about two weeks before getting frustrated with keep doing it for very few results. My pores looked the same and my skin didn't feel no softer or cleaner.

I wouldn't really use this again, it isn't a bad product, but it just doesn't do anything special and isn't worth the money. Sorry simple!

Summary: I don't like this, it's like water in a bottle.
