Hello all,
I have dry, sensitive skin. I picked this up on ebay some time ago and for some reason I just love it. In the past I've had trouble with flakes (even after exfoliaton) and tightness. This lotion (it's a toner, actually) has been wonderful. It doesn't strip or dry my skin; my skin feels lightly hydrated but not oily or moist. I've read reviews elsewhere where ladies feel it helps their treatments sink in better, but since I'm not doing any (yet) I can't comment on that.
All I know is my skin likes this stuff in between a cleanser and a moisturizer.
Apparently I got a heck of a deal on it on ebay that time. I looked up its price to replenish and gosh, but I just can't afford $ 30 for a toner right now. Stupid car repairs!
Does anyone have a recommendation for something similar but hopefully less expensive? I don't know if it is the hyaluronic acid my face likes or something else in the mix, so I guess I will just have to experiment. If it is the HA that my face likes I expect anything similar in formulation will be similar in price, right?
Thanks in advance,
M
PS This product is available at EDS in person, apparently - it's listed here on the site but has a note that it cannot be ordered online.
Here is the link to the product on the manufacturer's website:

Normally I would use a sensitive or dry formulation...this was just a "give it a try" impulse that worked really, really well. |

What is the full ingredients list? Sometimes what companies claim as actives is misleading as that ingredient is present in too small an amount to be effective. A great example is Garnier Triple Nutrition conditioner, trumpeting tiny amounts of various plant oils. They don't mention the palm oil that is listed third.
ETA found it!
"Water, Sorbitol, Hyaluronic Acid, Marine Collagen, Marine Elastin, Panthenol, Polysorbate 20, Tocopheryl Acetate, Anthemis Nobilis (Chamomile) Flower Extract, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Potassium Sorbate, Narcissus Jonquilla (Jonquil) Flower Extract, Methylparaben."
Don't think collagen or elastin can cross the skin barrier. IIRC sorbitol is a powerful humectant, you could probably DIY something similar. |

Thanks Firefox. I'm not in a position to DIY right now...school finals are killing me. I guess I'll just make do until I have time to DIY after Christmas.
Though if anyone else can recommend a toner similar to this, please chime in!
Have a great week,
