I'm one of those people who didn't even think about toner because I never saw the point in it. I have acne prone, dry skin and before I started using this I was using 2.5% benzoyl peroxide which did wonders for my skin! Well I decided to skip my benzoyl peroxide one night (used toner in the morning and peroxide at night) and I expected my skin to be covered in pimples the next morning, but my skin was so clear. So I started skipping it more and more and only using the toner along with my cleaner, hylauranic acid, and moisturizer and my skin is still clear! I never knew anything else would work fr my skin, but I'm glad this does. Plus it smells great and keeps my skin looking glowy.Most Helpful Critical ReviewOUCH!!!First of all, I love Mario Badescu products! They are very reasonably priced and work as well as philosophy or dermalogica without the hefty price tag. This toner, however, burned my skin. I used it for about 2 weeks thinking that maybe I just needed to give it some time. The skin around my nose actually became hard, flaky and red. It looked and felt like a terrible sunburn. Eventually that look spread around more areas of my face. The glycolic acid in this toner is too potent!!! I do not have particularly sensitive skin, so this surprised me. My face was so painful and continued to burn for hours after use. After I quit using it, my skin returned to normal. I use the Alpha-Grapefruit cleansing lotion now and I absolutely LOVE it!!!Reviewed by 759 customersLet's take this slow5Tashyyy from MilwaukeeI've tried countless toners in the last 5 years none impressed me until now. It's as if this was the missing puzzle piece in my skin care regimen. My skin looks so different, way more even tone and texture. I never want to stop using this! Start slow ppl! I started with ever other night for a few weeks, then every night, now I use this almost every morning and night. When my skin is feeling extra dry I do take a break. Remember this does serve as a chemical exfoliator. I have dry, sensitive, acne scarred skin, plus hormonal acne once in a while. This stuff works soo well for me.Love this5Marie from OHI don't like to use this product in the morning just because it can react with sunlight. I use it after I shower and before I moisturize. I generally use a cotton ball to apply but sometimes that can be too rough and abrasive and cause irritation or burning. Follow the directions and do a skin patch test before applying to your face. It is a mild resurfacing toner so it is a little more harsh, so I would read the ingredients before fully committing especially if your skin is sensitive. I have combo skin and I have tried it alone and with moisturizer afterward, and it tends to make my skin oily either way but since I'm sleeping it's not a big deal.very refreshing5RiffRandell from CABeen using it for about 2 weeks after I ran out of Inkey List's PHA toner and transitioned seamlessly. I use it in the morning, and I like it's refreshing fragrance - not too strong or overwhelming. the glycolic formula is gentle and effective. I think I found my new favorite.Love this toner!5SBoni from IndianaI bought this toner after reading reviews. I'm in my 40's and felt I needed an extra boost. This product is helping my skin get fully refreshed after cleaning.Effective and Affordable5Mari from Miami BeachI've been experimenting with toners lately and I really love how this GA toner has cleared up my combination skin and improved its texture. I use it both morning and evening after cleansing. Just a few drops on a cotton ball then sweep a light layer all over face and neck.HEAVILY SCENTED5Nickie from Harrisburg, PAI feel the product is working well but I would've liked to have known it is very scented, so it may deter some from purchasing it.I am loving this for my dry skin!5Heather from AnnapolisI was a little scared to use this at first, but honestly my skin has never looked better. Stings a little bit at the very beginning but the feeling went away in less than 10 seconds.Makes my skin feel fresh and clean4Nicky B from Atlanta, GAI use this product morning and night after cleansing. I have not experienced and dryness or breakouts while using this product. My skin feels super fresh and clean!Perfect if you don't use too much4Charlie from Olympia, WAThis is definitely my go-to toner. I've been using it for a year or two now. The thing that I've learned though is if you have more sensitive skin like I do, you have to keep the application to a minimal. Like only a couple drops onto a cotton ball or else it might irritate your skin. But other than that it's really helped improve my acne and it doesn't make my skin oily or dry and it's super refreshing to apply.Not for me1Beachgirl from Dominican in Minnesota 🏝Ever since my favorite glycolic toner made by DDF was discontinued, I have been searching for another glycolic toner to replace it. I really thought this could be the one. Unfortunately, I did not like it. Starting with the terrible smell. But also, my skin felt blah after using it. I will stick to Clinique for now. My skin feels super fresh and fabulous after using it.Smoother and blemish free skin.5Patty from NevadaNightly routine.DONT BUY1chun li from phoenixIt's a really bad brand, out of all of their products there's like only one good one. DONT BUYLove it!5Liz M from Parsippany, NJOnly been using for a few days and already feel a difference in my skin. Fine lines are smoothing our and my complexion looks smoother.BAD1bree from none your businessHORRIBLE BRAND DO NOT BUY ANY OF THEIR STUFF!!Good performance, lasts a long time!4AndyO from BostonObviously if you are not a toner person then this is not the product for you. I give it 4 stars because this has ingredients that some people may find issue with such as parabens. I work in the chemical industry so if I'm getting cancer it's not going to be from my skincare. Besides that, it's the bottle lasts a long time and the toner always picks up any remaining dirt and oils that are on my face whenever I try using a lower quality cleanser to save money.I would NOT buy this again1Lindsey from Fort LauderdaleI never use toner because I have very dry skin but I wanted to try to add something into my skin care routine so I decided to try this one since I've loved all the mario badescu products I have used in the past. I thought the ingredients would not irritate my skin because of the aloe and other ingredients in it that i have used before. After a few days of using this, my skin became extremely dry and flaky and would burn so bad every time I washed it or put other product on. My skin is still recovering right now, after trying to just intensely moisturize i eventually had to turn to cortisone ointment and benadryl to help the burning and itching sensation, which has seemed to help turn my skin back to normal. I don't normally have sensitive skin but if you do I would not recommend trying this!!!Worst product ever..1Faye from AcI have clear n clean skin but a little bit dull. I bought this toner for brighting my skin, it gave me worst ache on my face that never happened before. Had big red pus pimples on all over my face. And now throw it out.Good toner5Good from Altoona PAI use this toner every other night or so on spots where i have acne or oiliness and it's awesome. It's strong so I don't use it all the time or everywhere but it's worth having2nd Time Around...5MochaFrost from Warrington PAUsed this toner previously with less than favorable results. Face broke out horribly...from overuse. Definitely have to follow the directions to get the best results. The dark spots on my face a clearing up nicely, my skin is smooth and pores aren't clogged. I have combination skin that is part oily and part dry. I use this at night after washing my face at bedtime. So glad I gave this another chance!Thought It Would Be Good1P from OhioI normally use the Clean & Clear Oil-Free Deep Cleaning Astringent toner but i want to try something different so I gave this a shot. Plus I was wanting to improve my skincare. I was excited when it arrived and started using it right away. I have notice my skin is breaking out WAY more than it used to in a few days/weeks. It made my eyes/bags area extremely sensitive,my nose is starting to break out way more. I recommend the Clean & Clear one because it actually does something and you would feel it cleaning your skin. (It may burn a little but all the mean is the product is take the rest of the dirt that's deep in your pores and skin.)Must Have Product5Nik from CaliforniaI've used this toner for morning/night for several months and have seen tremendous improvement is the texture of my skin. Especially for the price, this is a must have product!Not for me2Not for me from Charleston, SCI wanted to try since it was highly recommended but only after 3 days of using my skin started to dry dramatically. Looks like my skin is about to peel off! I did feel my face a lot cleaner but unfortunately it just wasn't for me.AMAZING5Miracle worker from MichiganThis is a fantastic product and I recommend to all my friends!Not for me1K from NJThis broke me out and irritated my skin within a week of usingPerfect!5Emma from New YorkIt's cleared up the red spots on my face! And it's not super drying!
