    I have oily skin and most moisturizers make my skin oilier throughout the day. The oil absorbing lotion doesnt make my skin any oiler, but it doesnt absorb oil either like it says. If you need just...

    The product has some very problematic ingredients that raise concern for safety of the skin. It has 30% alcohol (according to the patent of the product, held by the ELC.). It contains also...

    this helped reduce the oiliness of my face without drying out my skin which is really good. but i think this will be too drying for others with normal/ dry skin. the alcohol smell is quite strong...

    I use this everyday along with the Oil Absorbing Lotion on my t-zone, and I love it! It has really helped refine my skin and makes my pores so small! Love!

    I have never really had much luck with toners in the past: They have either dried me out, broke me out, irritated my skin, or just sat there looking pretty and did nothing. Since my skin seems to...

    I was skeptical about the Oil Absorbing Tonic at first, because I am not a fan of toners in general. But I find that the La Mer line works great for my skin, so I figured I would try the tonic...

    I love La Mer products, and this one is just ok, especially for the price. Even though I have oily skin, this has far too much alcohol to be a really great toner. I prefer the pink one, which is...

    I love this toner, it feels great but I hate the price, too expensive. Plus what is the point of a toner? They say it is to remove excess left over that the cleanser did not remove and to prepare...

    Once again very expensive but a toner that did not dry my skin out AT ALL! I use this only in the summer underneath my spf and it helps control the oil. Good product if you can get past the price.
