I purchased this product after my BT used it on my skin and recommended it for my skin type (combination, dry cheeks, some shine on my t-zone on hotter months). After using it for a year, I can say it has kept my skin clear, I haven't suffered from any breakouts, it's so gentle on my skin and keeps it well hydrated. After using my Dermalogica special cleansing gel, I spray this on my face and it instantly feels hydrating. I wouldn't use this without a moisturiser as my skin will end up with a tight dry feeling. I have the largest size bottle and I am not even halfway through using it day and night, so the packaging is quite good.

I love this toner! It is hydrating, smells lovely, and really helps my moisturizer sink into my skin (I use CeraVe lotion). I also love the spray-on application because it is less fuss than using a cotton pad, in my opinion. In addition to using it between cleansing and moisturizing, I will also use a spritz of it on top of my makeup (Maybelline mineral powder foundation) to give it a nice "dewy" look. The only reason I have not given it a full five-lipstick rating is because of the price. I purchased 8 ounces for $25. Although it lasts pretty well (I have used about half in three months because I use it two or three times daily) it is pretty expensive.

I didnīt use toner in the past. I tried it with some cheaper drugstore brands and saw no sense in using a toner.
But my skin was in a very bad condition due to a harsh period of cold weather up to minus 20 degrees, so I decided to give it a try.
I recently tried some Dermalogica products and therefore, my chosen toner was from Demalogica.
Iīm sooo torn by this product and canīt decide, whether itīs fabulous or very bad.
This toner stings whenever I spray it on my skin. It burns, it stings, my skin gets red blotches. But only for about 5 to 10 minutes. After the toner dries on my skin, my skin goes back to normal and seems more hydrated, plump and moist. It doesnīt make any sense to me. I was shocked, when I used it the first time and was afraid it would ruin my already damaged skin for good.
I read other reviews and people with sensitive skin seem to have problems. However, I didnīt find the culprit in the list of ingredients. But I have several ingredients under suspicion: the ivy leaf extract or the arnica extract can be responsible for the irritation. These ingredients can cause irritation and allergies when they contact the skin.
I donīt know, if I would buy it again, because itīs expensive and I have to get through the ordeal of the odd feeling whenever I spray it on my skin. Maybe itīs because of the already bad condition my skin is in at the time. Or some of the plant extracts or even all of the plant extracts irritate my skin generally.
Another reviewer said, it only irritates her skin, when the skin is already sensitized by other factors.
I never use my moisturizer directly after putting the toner on my skin as other reviewers do, because for me, it works better when the toner dries on my skin and I put the moisturizer on afterwards.
My skin looks surprisingly good and I keep on using the toner. Maybe I can find out, if the toner is worth the stinging feeling.
Update 03/03/2012: I kept on using the toner and finally, my skin got over the irritation. The severe cold-weather period here in germany has ended and my skin got back to normal. And therefore, the toner doesnīt sting anymore on my skin. My skin looks beautiful and definitely has improved by being more hydrated. I gave it 4 lippies instead of 3 and would buy it again. But I wouldnīt doubt however, that when my skin is stressed by any factors like harsh cold weather or too much sun, the stinging and burning when using this product comes back!

This toner is great! I use it in the winter along with Active Moist to help my oily skin stay moisturized while removing oil -- I have skin that gets oily all over but also scaly in the winter (so like a weird variation of combination skin). This helps to lock in the moisture of Active Moist and makes my skin feel baby soft.
I was a little hesitant about the packaging at first but have decided I like it. I only need one or two spritzes and then I just sort of rub it around on my face. I doubt I will continue to use this in the summer, though, when I switch back to Oil Control Lotion (May - September), because I don't think my skin needs it. I have a trial size bottle now (I got it as a free gift with Active Moist) so I guess I will purchase the full size one for next winter/whenever I run out.

I was breaking out from this in places I never broke out before... stopped and my acne healed up.. then I tried it again.. epic failure and for $31 for a toner, I would exspect more.

At first, I didn't like this when used after cleansing with a moisturizer after while the toner was still damp on my skin. It was in my skincare drawer for months and then I bought the Dermalogica Skin Hydrating Booster which I didn't really like alone either (hard to spread) so for some reason, I decided to use the two together and I love it. I use this morning and night with the booster and CeRave moisturizer. My skin has improved and is balanced and hydrated. I wouldn't recommend alone but if you have a serum that you can use over this toner when it's still wet, try that and you may fall in love.

Luckily I got this as a free sample... This stuff is HORRIBLE! I used it one morning and it made my skin burn and turn red for a few days... I have oily/acne prone skin and this dried it out and irritated it. Can't comment on the price but I definitely wouldn't recommend.

I LOVE this toner. This product was recommend to me from a ULTA consultant. She stated it would help moisturize my skin and shrink the pores on my face and help rid my notice of blackheads.I have included this in my regular skin care routine and noticed a huge difference in my pores on my cheeks although I still have the black heads on my nose. My face feels more moisturized, I do not feel as though I need to reapply lotion in the middle of the day. I am honestly loving how amazing my skin looks lately.
The only thing is that the spray bottle. It doesn't spray the best and I sometimes I feel like I am wasting product on my hair and clothes because it gets every where when I spray it.

Although I hated most of the Dermalogica line (recommended for my oily/acne-prone skin), this was actually quite a nice product.
The fact it is a spray makes it so I don't have to use cotton pads and pull at my skin (not a good idea with acne). It made my skin feel nice and fresh and it smells nice.
On its own I think this product has merit - but it didn't help me much because of the other products I used with it (special cleansing gel and active moist).
Won't buy again because 1. I've found something better and 2. Its expensive.

One of my favourite toner. Really hydrates and feeds my dehydrated skin all the moisture it needs! However, it makes my skin turn red on days when it is sensitive. Overall a fantastic product!

Toner smelled like it was chock full of vitamins. Sadly, toner stung my sensitive skin and caused irritation in the form of redness and little bumps.

I have very dry (and sensitive) skin and Dermalogica is the only brand I have tried that doesn't turn my skin red or dry it out further. I like the pump as it sprays onto my face nicely and I have been using this product for almost 2 years now and won't be changing it.

I think I love it! I really enjoy using this product, it smells great and although I didn't think I would, I actually like spraying it directly onto my face! The pump isn't that great though so you do need a few sprays to cover all of your face.
I have, or should I say had, combination skin - oily t zone and normal cheeks, but these past few days my skin had been very very normal all over - I don't have to set my make up or powder through out the day! I have been using this toner just under 3 weeks, along with dermalogica pre cleanse, daily microfoliant and skin prep scrub 3 times a week. I'm convinced it's the toner that has balanced out my skin as that is what it is supposed to do! Also, the other products haven't shown brilliant results so far. The areas of my face which were already fairly clear, i guess have become smoother, clearer and brighter, but my cheeks, where I had started to get some serious clogging have been breaking out like crazy and I have bumps all over! I'm hoping it is still "purging" as like I said, the cleaner areas of my face haven't broken out.
I will keep up with it and review the other products after 6 weeks if anyone is interested in the other dermalogica products.
I've also just gone back on the contraceptive pill incase it is hormonal and will be purchasing the Clarisonic this evening - I'm desperate to fix my skin, Its never been so bad!!! : (

This is recommended for all skin types.i have oily acne prone skin and i use this as my everyday toner and instead mac fix+. yes! this is another alternative to it, using a toner! its good for foiling e/s.,really balances my ph its always good to stick to the right ph level so stick to the same skin care products that work for you that way your skin is balanced out causing no breakouts, and sets my makeup leaving my face hydrated and refreshed. this is also good used with steam opening the pores. you can use a toner at anytime of the day whenever you feel like you need to hydrate your face because it doesnt clog pores or breakouts ! the only things i don't like is the smell and stingy feeling it leaves. for the price id say is okay since i've had mine a little over a year now! Hope this helps.

What I expect from a good toner is to make my skin softer and have my moisturizer easier absorbed, as some of my previous toners did.
While this toner did feel refreshing, and I enjoyed its scent, it did not do what I expected. It's not bad, but it's just not what I wanted. At the same time, it burns if it gets around my eyes, I don't think my skin is sensitive or anything but some of my recent products have been causing it to burn...
So to conclude, this product was not what I wanted so I won't be purchasing it again.

I like that it is in a spray mist bottle, but the spray top sucks!
Anyway, this product is way overpriced for what it is. I love Dermalogica and I liked this spray, but I don't think I "need" it. It smells great and is refreshing, but there are a hundred other toners that will do the same thing and more for 1/4th the cost.
I do like the travel sized bottles to keep on the airplane though for a pick-me-up. Still, those are overpriced too!

I used to love this but since they have changed the formula I HATE it.
It made my face red and burn like fire!! I'm allergic to some of their new added ingredients.They should stick with the old formula which make my skin feel fresh and clear.

I am not sure what this toner is supposed to do. Dermalogica claims that it helps your moisturizer absorb better, but I do not feel any difference. It comes with a spray nozzle and feels very refreshing to spray onto your face, which is the only reason I am using up my bottle. However, it adds no value to my routine and I will not be repurchasing it.

Great toner, very refreshing, compliments the other Dermalogica products very well. Love the fact that I can spritz it on instead of using cotton balls. My previous toner was Witch Hazel so I am experiencing some pretty heavy sticker shock, but I must say I love the scent and it feels high end so that helps my mind to justify the cost. We are worth it right...

This is my second favorite toner, my first being Clinique's Acne Solutions toner. I love the way it smells, and I like spritzing it on my face. I can say that this toner is so good I can spray it on and see within 5 mins a nice healthy glow.I carry a travel size around and spritz my face sometimes.
As with all Dermalogica products it is really over priced, I took off a lippie for that.
****Update****
I have been using this toner for about six months. I have stopped using Clinique's toner and I am very happy with this one. In fact I bought a professional sized bottle on Ebay for 60 CAD.
***Update~12/11
I've been using this toner consistently for about a year. It's a great toner, when my skin is stable. Otherwise I have to keep going back to Clinique's toner (acne solutions I think) because I have KP and break-out that are not the type that come to the surface.
It's full of good and bad stuff. I have found that when I use this toner, my skin is more sensitive and reactive to certain cosmetics (like MAC Blushes) but when I get up in the middle of the night and spritz my face I wake up to a smooth, glowing complexion.
It's very moisture-attractive, and in the summer I've found I don't need moisturizer; multi active toner is enough. I like the spray bottle, but I find the product underwhelming of late. I find myself reaching for a sample of Avene toner I received recently.
It's ridiculously expensive. Nauseatingly, guilt inducingly expensive I literally cringe when I buy it. I stand there at the Demalogica display and contemplate the money I'm about to shell & sigh & b!tch & moan. I simply cannot trust I am getting a pure product on Ebay, several times what I have ordered looked tampered with. Once I gave someone a large bottle for a gift...and it was not even Dermalogica toner. We don't know what it was.
For the large part, as someone else stated in their review this toner; it's nothing special. It's good, not great, and not worth over sixty bucks for 250ml. For this reason, some of the ingredients and the lack of consistent "wow" factor I am seeking a new toner at a better price. I'll finish the bottle I have, & I'll not repurchase. continued >>
