I've been using this toner ever since I received it, and usually I use toners with a cotton pad, but this one has a thicker consistency, so I've just been applying it directly. I haven't noticed negative results, but feel my oilier areas have become more manageable. It is an alcohol based toner so it dries quickly.

The packaging is really nice, and I keep it in the box because it looks so cute. The scent is like a woodsy, herbal fragrance, and it doesn't linger.

I may try this again, I'd just need to try around more toners first.
