I really like this a lot. It shrunk my pores temporarily and was very soothing. My skin felt soft and it didn't break me out. I have very oily skin that is also sensitive, and this was perfect. I bought a small bottle of this to test it out, and so far its been good to me. It contains cypress oil which I could smell, but it quickly evaporated once I applied it. Its natural and refreshing. I put mine in the fridge and it helped to cool down my skin. Would buy again.

This is so mild and soothing! And it's refreshing. I really like this product. It is way less harsh than other toners I have tried. However, the price is fairly high.

I ordered this online based on some good reviews, but was disappointed in the scent. I guess the cypress is the same scent they used in roach spray I remember from the 70s. I'll try to stick with it since it does have some antibacterial properties and seems to be an otherwise gentle toner but only because the the scent dissapates. I am very picky about scents in products, but will usually not diss a product based on incidental smells as long as they go away, which this seems to do. It's not holy grail. Next time I'm going to try MyChelle's apple mist -- trying to find something I can use after the gym and that doesn't leave that sticky sits on top of skin feeling, which this has even when diluted with water.

I will admit I am not much of a toner girl, but I received this as an extra in a swap so I tried it. It's okay, I don't really think it makes a huge difference in my skincare regimen though. Smells a lot like cypress but that quickly dissipates. I have the 2 oz size, which goes for $3-4. I don't think I'd ever buy this on my own though, since I don't really think toner is necessary.

This product made my skin nice and soft and gently toned. BUT...everytime I use it I get a mild unpleasant warming sensation that takes about 15 minutes to fade. I have normal skin...maybe this is too "astringent" for me. I will try the Rosewater toner next time. Also, this smells like burning.

Nice toner but I did not like the smell. Scent fades quickly but it is still too strong and "medicine-like".

I bought this because my new foundation is leaving behind some traces after I wash my face, and I wanted something alcohol free to remove the residue. Overall I like this. I did not like the scent, but Wegmans had a display of essential oils and so I added a few drops of lemon grass, spearmint and tangerine and it has a refreshing scent now. Leaves skin feeling soft and prepped to moisturized. I'm a bit freaked out about spraying anything on my face, so I use a few spritzes on a cotton ball, that works quite well. All in all a good product, though a bit pricey for what you get. I will repurchase unless I find something better. Does calm some of the mid-facial redness on my skin, this is the first product to do that!

I have oily skin with large pores and a tendency to breakout. I've only used this a few times, but so far I like it. I will update if I encounter any skin problems in the next few days.
This is lovely. It's alcohol-free, is very refreshing and smells nice. It seems to tone down the extreme redness in my face, and is soothing to my skin after cleansing. Sometimes after I wash my face my skin can feel "tight", and a few sprays of this toner alleviated that. So far, so good on my problem skin! UPDATE 4 WEEKS LATER: No problems - no clogged pores, no zits, no irritation. Nice product.

This is a great non-alcohol based toner for oily skin. It is very soothing and slightly hydrates the skin while restoring pH balance. I find it works great after shaving to combat razor burn too. I do think this product is a bit over priced, but I will repurchase unless I discover something better.

I love this toner. I've actually been using it in the morning instead of lotion (at least in summertime). I have sensitive skin with an oily t-zone, and this seems to give a bit of hydration so the rest of my face doesn't get flaky, but is extremely light so it doesn't cause greasy shine. Its definitely not an astringent toner, has no alcohol or anything like that, but it makes my face feel refreshed and hydrated and ready for makeup, so I like it. It also seems to calm down and dry out any little acne flare ups I get. Plus, one bottle has lasted me forever, so its actually a pretty good bargain.

This probably does nothing, but I've been through several bottles of it because it just feels really good. It smells oceanic and clean, and... I don't know. I don't usually go for products I'm almost certain are useless, but this one... you know how it goes. Sometimes these things just happen.

This is the Zia line's toner intended for "normal/oily/problem" skin. It cleans deep, yet is alcohol-free, a real bonus and a difficult thing to find for those that are acne prone! Refreshing and gentle, yet really feels like it's "doing something."
