I discovered the Wild Sage products when they were used for my facial at the St. Julien Spa in Boulder, Colorado. For the last year my daily routine has been Wild Sage Almond Face Cleanser, followed by either the Lavender Mint Toner or the Rose Hazel Toner (applied using a cotton round), then the Lavender Rose Moisturizer. In addition to being a treat for my skin, I'm into aromatherapy and the scents are wonderful.
Does the Job While Being Alcohol-Free,
16 May 2007
This toner removes any left over residue from my soap-free face cleanser, and it doesn't contain harsh ingredients like alcohol. I am subtracting one star, though, because I find it still feels a little too astringent if I don't add glycerine to it. Overall, a good product, just add glycerine.
I really like this toner. It refreshes your face, helps to balance out the pH level and smells great! :) What I like about it is that it can be used on normal/oily skin without drying it out like many toners. After applying it, my face feels a little tight, but not dry and peely. For a toner it leaves the skin quite soft too! Perhaps it's from all the essences of rose petals??
