Designed for once-daily use—preferably in the evening—the toner is balanced with plant-derived extracts such as Tasmanian pepperberry, aloe, and ginseng to help reduce discomfort and leave skin feeling refreshed. The clear, water-based texture makes it simple to layer into most routines, and it can also be used sparingly on the scalp to address dry or flaky skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow will this toner change my skin’s texture?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRegular application helps slough away dead skin cells, which makes rough patches and uneven texture less noticeable.
