I absolutely love using this toner! WHY?  Its gentle yet effective, which is a must for my super dry, sensitive skin.  The cPDRN really helps keep my skin looking plump and rejuvenated, while the calmiing ingredients like tea tree extract make it feel soothed and balanced after every use.  Plus, knowing it's free from parabens and has that extra barrier support is just the cherry on top.  It has become a staple in my routine for keeping my skin happy and healthy.  ⚠️NOTE⚠️ This does have a gentle exfoliant, so I only use it 1-2 per week.
