    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....

    Alcohol, fragrance, ghastly blue colour, what's not to love? Very old fashioned formula which dries out the skin and offers absolutely no benefits.

    I received a sample size of La Roche-Posay’s “Effaclar Astringent Lotion” which is a toner. I found it to be exceptional. The sample lasted for about 3 days, but I found that my pores appeared...

    This products smells overwhelmingly of alcohol. That alone puts me off. It also left a slightly stinging and itchy feeling on my face. Definitely not sold.

    This product does work well. When you use it along with the effaclar gel cleanser they work excellent together but the issue I have with this toner is that it's very fragranced. That is an issue...

    Effaclar! French brand. Cute name. Cute packaging. Good promotion. Less than awesome product. I like that the astringent is blue, that's cool. I guess it adds extra kick to my face wash but in...

    I bought this expecting to find my HG toner, but it was a huge disappointment. I've been using it for more than 3 months and my skin has not improved at all. I had cystic acne on my right jawline...

    I kind of like this exfoliant but honestly it wa sjust too drying and made my skin flake. My skin looked clear whenever I used it, every few days, but I couldn't get over the flakes.

    High alcohol content and therefore very drying. First La roche-posay product that I've thought was really not up to scratch.

    Big issue with this product is that it contains denat. Alcohol which drys skin out and causes breakouts in some people. This broke me out each time I used it so I can't recommend this product...

    At beggining I liked because it made my skin feel better and with smaller pores (less visible). But after 3 weeks of continuous use, my pores (in the region lateral to nose and near eyes) started...
