AEOS, Refreshing Hydrating Mist
“This hydrating mist has done a wonderful job of giving me a fresh, fragrant boost. ‘Highly concentrated’ but I’ll add that it’s highly addictive! It is like a splash of goodness, rather like drinking a cool lemonade on a hot day. My skin feels refreshed, and cooled. My eyes more awake from the harsh blue lights from the computer. Skin feels immediately revived and invigorated, it’s so refreshing to spritz on. A great go-to product for a quick shot of hydration and you can tell there is something very special about it. You know you are using a quality product as the fragrance does envelop you and it balances your skin and mind.”

ANARA SKINCARE, Hydrating Beauty Essence
“I wasn’t expecting this to be quite so moisturising! It left my skin feeling beautifully soft and hydrated. I love this toner! My skin looks amazing, i’ve been ID’d several times since using it (I’m coming up for 35!) and my skin is so soft. You feel the benefit of using it within minutes of applying it, and that feeling of hydration and softness lasts for hours after applying it. I wasn’t convinced that it could live up to the promises of being both hydrating and exfoliating, but somehow it lived up to those claims amazingly well! Its left my skin both looking and feeling amazing and is definitely a permanent fixture in my skincare routine from now on.”
Organic Thesis, Tone Me Toner
“Excellent spray dispersal, wide and fine. Found myself looking forward to using this as a first step in skincare after cleansing. It dries down well and works as a good base for skincare and cosmetics. I haven’t found it a chore to use this: it’s ready for me at the start of prepping my skin in the morning, and calms the skin at night. I haven’t felt the need to dry my face after spraying, it’s dried sufficiently in no time. On the days my skin has felt tight, for example after cleansing in the shower, it has been very pleasant to spray this toner before anything else on my face, neck and décolleté. It’s quick to use and efficient.”

Casa Mencarelli, ACQUA DI MIELE – Honey & Orange Toner
“Very pretty, Mediterranean style packaging. This product is a hazy, coloured liquid held in a heavy, expensive looking glass bottle. It’s a lovely smooth toner, incredibly gentle and soothing. A light sweet smell of honey. The toner sweeps easily over the skin, leaving it refreshed and not at all dry. It dries in quickly leaving your skin ready for the next product. I am enjoying this: there is a decadent feel to it. I enjoy using this as part of my nightly wind-down routine. I think my skin feels smoother using this, and I have had fewer breakouts around hormonal times. A super product.”
