    An excellent toner with astringent properties. It has been around for many years and although the packaging has been updated and the formula somewhat simplified, it is still an excellent product....

    Reviewing the version that contains BHAs for resurfacing and a 2% salicyclic acid benefit -- yeah, it didn't do much in the way of preventing or reducing acne or resurfacing texture from past acne.

    I really love La Roche Posays skincare. It's normally really good but this was awful for me. There's so much denatured alcohol in here that I feel like this doesn't really do much other than dry...

    I like this toner from La Roche Posay. It does have alcohol in it, but it doesn't dry out my skin. It has helped me with clearing up breakouts and overall just as a toner normally works for skin....

    Yes, this toner is an *astringent*, meaning it has a high alcohol content (#2 ingredient!). Yes, alcohol is not the best thing to put on your skin. However, I've realized that sometimes my skin...

    Okay so when I purchased this on a whim I went and started searching for the reviews, and on here I found it rated so poorly that I was reluctant to try it. However, I stifled the bad reviews and...

    This is drying my skin so it is not for daily use. I use it twice a week and it is good for my acne-prone skin. After using this product only on my forehead and acne I use some good moisturizer. ...

    Awful. High alcohol content- very drying. Cheap product being sold for too much money- not good for anything. Do not recommend.

    I like it in combination with serozinc, WHICH IS DISCONTINUED!!! WHY??? Alone, it's okay, but not brilliant. I will continue to purchase until I can get something else or make my own serozinc.
