20 Best Toners For Pore Minimizing (2023 Updated)

I had done my morning skincare routine by the time this was delivered this morning, but I was keen to try out the texture so I put the tiniest dot on my left hand. It spread everywhere, took a few seconds to sink in and I thought – “cool, feels nice”.

3 hours later I’m driving home from a meeting, my hands roughly at 10 and 2, and I look down at said hands. This magical liquid gave me a full Madeline Ashton moment no word of a lie. For the uninitiated, my left hand looked like it did when I was 25 and my right hand was dry, red and aged.

This clearly has very potent hydrating and soothing properties which is what I’m looking for from my toner to help reduce the side effects of Tret, and I cannot wait to start using this product proper.

Hi Alex, Thank you for that great review. Sounds like you have found your ideal toner, at least for your hands, anyway! I hope that your face appreciates it just as much. Please feel free to contact us at Customer Care if you need any further product recommendations.

Best wishes, Natasha – Paula’s Choice Customer Care Team.

I started using PC products about 6 months ago, and have really loved the results with most of them. I started with the CLEAR products which got some menopausal/maskne under control. At 54, I am also looking for anti-aging ingredients and added the peptide booster which is wonderful for my skin.

To address acne scarring and discoloration, I added the Vitamin C and azeleic acid boosters. I use the BHA 9 to address sebaceous hyperplasia spots and any congestion that pops up. My skin is the clearest it’s been in a looong time.

The only two products that my skin seems to do poorly with are the Niacinamide 20% and the Pore Reducing Toner. Each time I’ve added them to my routine to address pore size, I break out. So I’ve discontinued using them as it seems I am sensitive to these two products.

I bought this product for my 14 year old suffering from acne (I think hormonal. ) It immediately caused redness & irritation. He told me my face is burning. The next day we saw some small red patches on his face where he had no problems as a matter of fact those areas on his face still have the look of baby face.

Let me tell you why we still give it 4 stars. He had some big and stubborn Blackheads on his nose and when he woke up we can see them closer to the surface and we were able to remove at least one big one without a problem.

I believe this happened after the 2nd time he used the product. He is taking a break from it, but wants to try it again just on the nose to see if the rest of the blackheads come out to the surface so that we can extract them without damaging the skin.

I wish we knew what exactly cause the burning and irritation.

This works very well HOWEVER – Be sure to make sure you have a facial regimen, I would suggest using this AFTER you cleanse and moisturize especially. This product has a drying agent so if you have combination skin that is both oily and dry, I would keep that in mind.

I use this as a spot treatment for the parts of my skin that is oily only, I wouldn’t recommend replacing your regular toners with this product or using it on your entire face, It’s great in conjunction with other products since some will leave certain spots of my skin overly moisturized.

I typically use moisturizer & serum before applying this pore solution and it doesn’t overly dry out my skin, It looks pretty great with primer layered over it if you have days that you don’t want to use foundation and want to go for a more “natural” look.

Its also very cooling upon application and I’ve noticed that it tames some of the redness in the areas that it is applied too, Which I honestly didn’t expect! The scent is a bit light and fresh imo, I’d compare it to how most facial products smell so its not overly strong.

As for the alcohol content – Its not as much as most products I’ve used considering that this didn’t irritate my skin, I’d say its less than the Clinique toner which I use daily (which I could feel the alcohol content in that product).

Bottom line : Overall I’d say get it considering the cost & quality of the product along with the fact that you don’t need that much of it for each use. I like this product especially since I was able to use an oil treatment on my dry patches for the first time in a long time, This product made up for the spots that are left oily or overly saturated from those types of nightly oil treatments as well as helpful for my day-to-day oil build up from working or physical activities that typically leave my face oily.

For context; It held up for 9 hours after applying. Probably would have lasted longer had I not showered, But it definitely did its job!.

I am a very fair-skinned 65 year old I’ve enjoyed a “peaches & cream” complexion all my life – until I reached my late fifties. Facial fuzz and pores began popping up. I have spent a fortune buying products claiming to reduce pores.

Many of them tell you it may take several weeks before seeing results. So far none of them have worked until I tried this new toner from IT. I have used it makeup products for years and frankly, I needed a toner.

I did not actually expect this toner to reduce pores. However, to my great surprise I noticed a reduction in pore size after the first two applications (I use it every night and morning). The very first day after beginning use of Bye Bye Pores, my makeup applied easier and looked smoother.

Honestly, after using this a month I feel like it makes me look fresher, perhaps even a bit younger. I just cannot ever run out of this. I hope you will try it and get similar results to mine. Thank you IT! (No, I was not compensated in any way for this review.

).

I bought this from IT directly because Sephora was out at the time. I really liked it to begin with but then for some reason after the 2nd time I used it I began to have pinhead sized whiteheads all over my face.

I have no idea how or why? So I thought I would try it again just to make sure that was the product that was causing it so I used it alone-and sure enough that’s the culprit. It’s unfortunate because other than that, I liked all the other benefits that did for my skin.

It Minimized my pores, brightens my skin and it felt pretty clean it even kept it matteI. But I can continue to keep causing these little whiteheads. I’ll try to a few more times just to make sure it’s not just purging my skin, only to eventually quit.

Otherwise it will too bad cause I can’t return it to IT without paying, whereas Sephora it would be free, or I could go to store directly.

I love everything Rodan and Fields. I started my skincare journey with the Reverse regimen and this toner is amazing. It’s step 2 in the regimen after the cleanser. I had a lot of sun damage and this product line is a total game changer.

I love the product so much that after 2 months of using the products I became a consultant. The products do what they claim to do. This toner has a light citrus scent and leaves your skin feeling cool and clean.

I highly recommend this toner.

The R&F cleanser, eye creme & moisturizer are 3 of my products. I do not purchase anything that is past the expiration date. Recently I purchased the sunscreen and it was almost 3 years past the expiration date.

The price didnt reflect the fact either. I have already returned it. My 1 suggestion is that you require all products to list expiration date on products. I did some research on product with SPF & expiration dates.

The FDA said that on any sun protection to duct or any product , do not use after the expiration date.

My aunt whom works in Rodan + Fields works in the company and recommended me this. I was complaining about my sun and acne marks. Love it’s citrus scent! Definitely do not recommend using it combined with acne products, one time I had an allergic reaction when I combined it with Clyndamicin.

It also broke my skin out after consecutive days (when it’s regime says you can use it daily). However, my skin was more bright and less pigmented!.

I first bought this to see if it would anyway help with boosting my complexion and PIH/dark spots on my face. I was hoping that this product would slightly help with my complexion and expecting it to cause acne breakouts and/or irritation on my sensitive skin.

Sometimes I get surprised by which products my skin decides not to react to. I was speechless with the results that this toner gave me. and then when my speechlessness recovered I couldn’t stop talking about it! My acne went from roughly 50% severe (average pencil eraser-head sized) and 50% cystic (dime-sized) to 40% severe, 30% cystic (Jan 2022) to 30% severe & 20% cystic (May 2022).

This product also lightened up my PIH from a dark brown to a less dark brown and helped (along with rest of my skincare) erase some dark marks. It smells like a tropical cherry and floral combo, sweeter, more tropical, less intense than the cleanser.

The smell vanishes within 3 minutes. This toner feels like a loose gel or a serum in my hands. I prefer to use my hands to apply this. Fat water toner has the EXACT SAME texture on the face as the Avène anti-imperfection concentrate.

I 100% believe that there were some cosmetic formulators/scientists/chemists shared between the teams behind these products. On top of it, both companies have French connections (Avène is French and Fenty Skin is co-owned by LVMH).

You cannot convince me otherwise. The packaging is nice, pretty, and sleek. While I usually prefer pumps for serum, I like this method of pouring out the toner as for me, the toner is too liquid-y to be a proper serum.

I like the quantity, 50 mL lasts ~1. 5 months sporadically used (1-2 times a week) and 150 mL is enough for alternate day application on my face for 4 months. A staple in my skincare routine & must-have product in regards to my acne, PIH, and dark marks.

Strongly recommend.

This is the only product in the line where I know the only issue that came up for me could have came from. I ordered the set that included the total remove it all cleanser, toner, and the moisturizer.

However, with the toner, since it does include witch hazel, it dried out my skin a slight bit. I’d like to mention that I have really sensitive skin and my skin always gets irritated when trying out new products and I experience bad redness although none of these products made my face red which is a first and something I was beyond impressed with.

I have never suffered from acne besides one year in high school or have ever had oily skin and I have never suffered any skin condition such rosacea, eczema, or psoriasis. I only like to use witch hazel on my face whenever I have a small stubborn pimple, because it usually does the trick.

However, I don’t really like to use just witch hazel on my face, because my skin is way too sensitive for that. However, after going through my skincare routine with these products, most likely from the toner, I experienced a little bit of peeling only outside of the area surrounding the outside of my lips, which I thought was kind of weird, no where else on my face, just that specific part.

Also, I experienced no redness at all which is something quite shocking to me, my skin did not feel warm and hot, and I only experienced all little discomfort from my skin on the area surrounding the outside of my lips, because a couple hours later after using all the products I noticed, small white flakes surrounding just that area on my face.

Whenever, I have used a bottled of just which hazel alone from the drug store, it does not matter what brand, all brands that I have used cause my skin to peel by really drying it out and I get a lot of white flakes.

However, with the fat water just a slight bit of peeling because I only had a few white flakes appear on my face on just that spot of my face. I experienced no redness at all from this product alone or the other ones in this skincare line, which I’m amazed with and it’s very difficult to find something that actually works on your face when you have extremely sensitive skin like me and works good for your skin skin, because I did not get any redness at all and my skin did not feel like it was burning for once.

I would like to mention that the white flakes were gone after I splashed just some water on my face and my white flakes were removed and you weren’t even able to tell that my skin even slightly peeled in the first place, which I thought was really great and whenever I put some just some witch hazel alone on my face, the peeling and white flakes never go away after wetting my face with water, they only go away 2 days later after I last used the witch hazel.

I thought the fat water was still good, but would probably be the only thing I wouldn’t reorder after I finish this one that came with my set I ordered, because I don’t find it necessary, since I have extremely sensitive skin and anyone with sensitive skin like myself, I don’t think it’s necessary if the fat water did that to you.

However, I do want to mention that I think anyone wouldn’t mind using this product, who has any other skin type besides those who have sensitive skin like myself and I thought the product was still good.

Only issue that came was that it did dry up my skin slightly, because of some white flakes surrounding that spot on my face and no redness from extreme irritation and no burning at all, which I thought was still great, because for me it’s so hard to find a product that does leave my face all red and feels like it’s burning my face.

I think all other skin types would think that this product is still great, besides those with sensitive skin. This is the only reason why I would avoid this specific product in the future, because of this small issue that resulted after using the entire skincare routine and I don’t think it was a must have for me and why it’s a pass, overall very impressed with the other two products, besides this one.

I have combo dry skin, and when it’s hot-humid-sticky weather, I get tiny zit like bumps around my T-zone. Needless to say, this toner is used for this weather. My skincare routine is catered to the seasons, so it changes as needed.

I don’t wash my face with soap twice a day, I do it once a day so I don’t strip away too much of my natural oils. I feel like this toner could have a higher performance potential on healthy “skin barriers”.

I didn’t get this to “shrink” my pores, rather I got this to protect my pores from clogging invasions from a multitude of foreign threats. I like to apply this toner after light exfoliation to avoid dead skin cells from teaming up together and clumping.

I do get a light tingling sensation when applied, and I do notice some shine control where my problem pores are. It helped reduce the look of enlarged pores. I like to spread the product and lightly pat the product into my skin where I need a bit more help.

I like that it has vitamin C and niacinamide, so it’s a pretty good summer toner to apply for improved spf benefits from sun protection. I personally wouldn’t use this toner on dryer weather like winter.

My go-to is Laneige or Fresh for that. This product works for me, and good luck for people still looking for a product that can work for them.

I was SO scared to try this because my skin is so sensitive and prone to rosacea and redness, and this has alcohol and some essential oils which are typically big no-no’s for sensitive skin, but Caudalie has not let me down yet!! (I do not use the matching serum and moisturizer though, because I think that might be too much all together.

I use their Vinosource hydrating line for these steps). This does not dry me out too much, but I only use it on my very oily areas (nose and chin). This is a toner that you definitely want to use a cotton pad with; it’s very watery and you only need a small amount.

It has a wonderful cooling sensation and immediately tightened my pores. If you ever used the old Proactiv toner, this reminds me a bit of that but with a cleaner formula. My skin reacted very poorly to 2% and even 0.

5% salicylic acid products in the past. This product doesn’t list the percentage, which means it is less than 0. 5%. I have been able to use once daily in the morning, sometimes skipping a day if I don’t feel that oily, and it does not over-exfoliate me.

At night I use TO’s azelaic acid and these are my only two actives. For some background, I previously was on low dose tretinoin which cleared out my severely congested skin, but my skin never really fully acclimated to the dryness it caused, so I quit it for this summer (didn’t want to deal with the extreme sun sensitivity again!) and am focused on maintenance by gentle exfoliation.

I say this to note that I am not currently treating active acne with this, just to maintain clear pores and prevent acne from developing. This really helps control my oil production in the T-zone, more than anything else I have tried.

If you are really sensitive, give Caudalie a try! Although they use fragrances and alcohol in some products, their formulations are made with sensitive skin in mind, and really it is all in the formulation, not just ingredients (unless you have a specific allergy).

My skin had always been pretty good, but at 41 (and after having had my daughter just over 2 years ago) I had started to get awful hormonal breakouts around my chin, jawline and neck. For around 2 weeks a month my skin would be fine, and then for the remaining weeks it would feel (and look) like an oil slick! It really knocked my confidence and so I started researching cleansers.

I read that I needed one with salicylic acid and fell upon the Caudalie Vinopure range. I also bought the toner, serum, and moisturiser. What can I say, these products have been a total game changer for me! My skin is the best it has ever been – glowing and breakout free.

Plus the range is cheaper than the well known salon brand I had been using previously! Brilliant products Caudalie, thanks for giving me my glow back x.

I bought this together with the range of other products in the vinopure range. I received a sample of this toner when I had a hormonal breakout in my 40s and have used many other products to no avail.

I love the minty smell of this toner, it’s watery and light, the only gripe I have is that it has a slight soapy consistency when you apply it to your face, I find that with this product, less is more.

I prefer to use a cotton pad to apply rather than hands so that I can wipe, then use whatever that’s left on the cotton pad to rest on those breakouts that are still active to soak in more. Although this product has salicylic acid, it’s formulation does not dry out my skin, in fact it miraculously reduced the redness on my normally sensitive skin.

Overall, I’m happy that this toner calms sensitive breakout prone skin.

🇺🇸 📝𝘗𝘳𝘰𝘥𝘶𝘤𝘵 𝘥𝘦𝘴𝘤𝘳𝘪𝘱𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 Hey guys! I just emptied this wonderful toner from FARMACY 𝐃𝐄𝐄𝐏 𝐒𝐖𝐄𝐄𝐏 𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝟐% 𝐁𝐇𝐀 𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐫 and I wanted to share my thoughts with you. This light toner deep cleans and gently exfoliates the skin, keeping pores clean and dirt-free, without drying the skin.

The BHA, Papaya and Moringa in the formula also help reduce excess oil. This toner is perfect for anyone with an oily/combo complexion or someone with acne-prone skin. I couldn’t really help myself from trying it out because I love BHA! 🤔𝘔𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘴 I got this toner in a Boxycharm box and it says on the packaging it was specifically ‘made’ for Boxycharm, so I’m not quite sure what are the implications of that; I can only hope that the ingredients are the same as in the one the brand sells.

But anyway! I really love the toner, probably the only one I’ve used so far that actually ‘sweeps’ the skin of all impurities. I went to a party and I used the Norvina pressed pigments. Naturally, it dyed my eyelids and this toner was the only thing that made it come off.

Of course, it won’t shrinks your pores or make them pristine clear just with one swipe, but it sure helps to keep them from growing in size and I also noticed that it does help with oil control too.

I won this @farmacybeauty Deep Sweep 2% BHA Pore Cleansing Toner in a #giveaway from @suzannec_713. I’ve been using this every day night since I got it bc the ingredients alone looked so good! It has Salicylic Acid which is great for breakouts, Papaya Fruit Ferment Extract, Moringa Leaf Water Extract, Lactic Acid several other great ingredients that are great for breakouts without drying out your skin.

Keeping your skin hydrated while you’re having a breakout is important this also helps for a deep down clean without damaging your skin. It’s a pretty, minty green liquid that has a very light, fresh scent to it.

I’m really beginning to love @farmacybeauty products! This is the 2nd product I’ve used by them (the 1st was their makeup balm, also from this #giveaway) I’m blown away by the quality PLUS it’s #crueltyfree , paraben free, formaldehyde free, mineral oil free, synthetic fragrance free phthalate free.

It gives my skin a fresh feeling after using it has helped with some breakouts by shortening the time it takes to get rid of pimples without drying my face out. If you struggle with acne or would just like to use a really good toner, I would highly recommend using this! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.

Farmacy is quickly becoming a cult classic brand and its Deep Sweep 2% BHA (salicylic acid) Pore Cleaning Toner with Moringa and Papaya doesn’t disappoint! It has a refreshing, effective formula and is oh-so-satisfying to use.

It is safe for sensitive, dry, combination and oily skin. With a 2% concentration of Salicylic Acid, Farmacy’s BHA toner does what a good acidic toner should do. It exfoliates the skin and deep cleans pores, clearing them of any build-up that can stretch them and make them appear more visible.

Notably, this product has the addition of antioxidants, including amino acids (arginine), superstar chlorella, moringa seed extract and moringa water. My real hype, beyond how gentle and effective Clean Sweep is, is the little sealing cap that you can pop right back onto the bottle, ensuring that you keep all of your product for your skin and not your bathroom counter! I’ve said it so many times – unless a toner has active ingredients, it’s a waste of time, money and effort.

Fortunately, this investment was not a waste! Note that the product comes in a recyclable glass bottle and cardboard box, which makes it even better!.

really good results with this toner! it did feel as there was a little sticky residue after applying but once i put my serum and moisturizer it was all good and went right into my skin. it’s really helped with my combination skin and has made my breakouts decrease a lot, really loving it so far.

reasoning for the 4 stars instead of 5 is just that it has a very weird alcohol smell. smells like rubbing alcohol and i’m not a fan lol, but it works great on the skin and i’ll definitely repurchase.

I love the Origins brand and the ingredients in all of their products. So this also holds true for this toner. I know that I have the freedom to experiment a little more so with anything they create because I’m never going to be putting anything on my face from Origins that will hurt me in anyway.

I would recommend this toner specifically for use in the summertime or in areas where there is a lot of heat humidity. The mint saw palmetto make pores skin feel super cool and refreshing! It also gives you an incredibly deep clean feel.

I think this product would actually make for a perfect facial mist to refresh and wake yourself up during the day. Unfortunately for my own usage, swiping on a toner through my day isnt an option since I have a full face of make up on.

I apply toner directly after washing my face AM PM prior to using essence/serums. It helps me to get the best PH for my skin to maximize the benefits of the treatment that follows. For my personal needs and my routine this wasn’t appropriate.

There are much better options for what I’m looking for. But, if you are looking to refresh throughout the day because it’s hot or you get oily and sweaty, this would be a great solution!!!. ***If you are like me and can’t be rubbing off makeup, try putting this stuff in a misting spray bottle to wake yourself up! I also felt that for my skin type this was too dehydrating, or maybe it just wasn’t moisturizing/hydrating enough Since after every use my skin would feel tight unlike it does with other toners.

This is literally the best product I have ever found! I am absolutely in love with it! I hope origins keeps this in their line forever. It makes my skin so clear, transforms the texture leaves my pores clean, clear and noticeably smaller.

Definitely recommend anyone with oily skin try it.

I’m a skincare guru and love trying new things. I have a consistent well loved routine I use and have been doing so for 3 years now. I know what I like and don’t like in ingredients, what brands I love or prefer and what works best for my sensitive, acne prone, combo skin.

I stick with CLEAN beauty always and short, transparent ingredient labels lol, and this does both! I can’t believe first off how cheap this toner is with the results it provides. I’m on the start of my 2nd bottle using both am/pm daily after am micellar cleanse and nightly double clense routine and im blown away by how non irritating, non drying, brightening and hydrating this toner is! The remaining lighter, red chin acne scarring I had is practically GONE and pores less visable.

thanks to Nicinamide for that! This brand and product is proof you don’t have to spend alot of money for good quality, effective skin care. Give this a try, and if you want you can include the Good Molecules Nicinamide Serum.

dynamic duo. it’s wonderful!!.

So far, it’s been a little over a month since I got this toner! I have been recovering from a very bad and prolonged breakout since the beginning of the pandemic and quarantine. Because of that, I’ve been left with tons of hyperpigmentation scars.

To this day, I still have active breakouts from time to time. So far, I think the toner seems to be helping a bit. I wasn’t really keeping track of the progress with pictures so it’s hard to recall BUT I do definitely see a bit of a difference much faster compared to my previous Paula’s Choice Pore Reducing toner (which before I had bought the Good Molecules toner, I had used this previous toner for several months with no real significant improvement).

The Good Molecules Niacinamide toner doesn’t irritate my skin at all and is not drying at all. I’ve had no reactions either, which is great 🙂 ! I’m going to continue using it for the next few months and hope that my hyperpigmentation will continue to fade until I’m finally spot free! Also, I will definitely repurchase once I run out!.

Let me start off to say I never do reviews of anything but I was compelled on this one. I started a consistent skin care routine few years ago so of course have tried alot of products. I am 47 yrs young with textured skin, sun damage and post acne scars.

I do have the healthiest skin for me ever(only took me till I was in my 40s lol) but after sometime u like to change up your products. Have always incorporated niacinamide in my routine but when I seen this toner I had to try.

Omg!! After 1st time I used it, my skin felt hydrated, moisturized, soft and jad a beautiful glow. I followed with GM hyaluronic acid serum and so impressed. I can’t wait to use it every night. I will be trying other products but after using so many different toners I have never seen these kind of results.

Sorry for rambling but had to share my opinion!! Bless all you beautiful ladies and thank you GM for making a great product at a great price. Hope all your products I try impress me the same way. Keep up the good work!.

I’ve used this pore refining toner on and off for many years now. While I regularly use a different brand of toner now , I will always look for this specific toner to purchase as a staple product in my skincare cabinet for use during certain times when I need it for it’s benefit specifically.

The Neutrogena brand has honestly been one of the very best drug store brands of skincare in my personal opinion. I have been using their products on n off since I started using skincare products back in middle school.

That speaks to their high quality products. I would always recommend this brand overall and this toner as well.

Okay so I had been looking for toner for awhile and didn’t want some expensive toner. Found this, brought it home, used it the next day. When I first opened the bottle, the smell of nail polish remover (acetone) filled the room.

It was very strange because that has never happened before. I put it on a cotton pad and started to apply it but my face started burning slightly. I do have kind of sensitive skin so I didn’t think much of it.

Kept going. Afterwards, my eyes were basically tearing up so badly I started crying. Not the pain type of cry, but the type of cry when you’re chopping onions. I don’t really mind it too much and the smell still confuses me but I did try to use it to take off my nail polish just to see because it smelled exactly like acetone.

Thankfully it didn’t remove my nail polish. I still use it every now and then but I make sure to d it very quickly because when it gets close to my eyes, it burns. Overall, I don’t mind this and will continue to use until gone, then buy a different toner.

I am a skin care junkie who is always buying new skin care online. I had been using the Neutrogena stress control simply because i wanted salicylic acid to balance the oil on my t-zone. I purchased the Paula’s Choice 2% BHA exfoliant toner and it worked good.

Its watery but kind of feels like an oily water. I do not use cotton rounds to apply skin care, even toner. I apply everything with my hands and pat into my skin. Even watery skin products i apply with my hands.

This is the best toner out there and when comparing ingredients with a $35 bottle of Paula’s Choice toner i was blown away at Neutrogena having the exact same ingredients, but MORE exfoliating ingredients ( glycolic acid) and also soothing aloe vera and witch hazel.

I am prone to a bump here or there but this toner has not one time broke me out nor irritated my sensitive skin. Literally $20 more i was paying for an inferior product, strictly because of the name.

I typically stay away from toners because I’m used to them stinging and not really having a major affect on my skin. I’ve been off birth control a few months and ever since my skin has been breaking out like crazy.

I just want to say I’ve only used this toner for 2 nights. I’m not reviewing how well the product works, if it minimizes pores, etc etc. i just want to brag on how SOOTHING this product is. No sting what so ever.

It feels so good to put on your face. I can’t even describe it. Not to be gross but I’ve applied it to bleeding zits I just popped and NO STING, it just feels good on your skin. With a light powder type scent.

I will come back for another review once I’ve used it long enough to comment on the other details. I love it already.

I’m really baffled. I turn 30 next month and my once clear and even skin had really become extra sensitive to just about everything, from retinol to hyaluronic acid, it just appeared I would have either enflamed or dried skin slowly wrinkling and discoloring for life.

I use the differin adapalene gel, which has helped my acne and my wrinkles miraculously, but my skin is so so sensitive to it. I bought this toner because I was finally at my wits end and seeking anything that could gently calm my skin, I found this while also grabbing my gel and omg.

I am not joking when I say it delivers what it promises and then some. My red and dried cracking skin was instantly soothed by this, when any lotion (with parfum or not) would exacerbate it, eliminating moisturizing at all.

I cannot believe how well this skin care routine is working for me, touching on skin problems not even bc could touch. I highly recommend this toner, it will not hurt your sensitive skin! I am not sure what magic Differin is casting on it’s products, but it’s powerful!.

I have been using this product for the last week with the knock off differin gel from cvs and I must say I am really enjoying it. I wasn’t sure if I would. I thought it might be too much but it’s really nice and has a pleasant scent.

It’s not too strongly scented and doesn’t feel like you’re putting something medicated on your face. It has been working nicely at clearing up my bumpy acne I absolutely hate on my face. I have all of these small bumps all over my face and using the active ingredient in differin seems to be the only thing that helps with this problem.

The only thing is you have to be consistent or the bumps will come right back. Overall a great product! I recommend.

I used the product long ago and I remember having great results. I picked this up again and when use consistently it does have a positive effect on my skin. I see improvement in fine lines, hyperpigmentation and my pores appear small since this helps clean out the sebaceous filaments.

The ingredients list has two different alcohols listed and witch hazel. There is also a strong fragrance. If you have sensitive skin I would not recommend.

I have been using the beta and hydroxy formula pore refining toner for several months now and I am in LOVE with this product. I wash my face with the prink grapefruit salicylic acid cleanser and then follow with this toner and I can still see dirt lifted onto the cotton ball! It’s crazy how soft and fresh, and revitalized my face feels too without being over dried.

I end with the pink grapefruit salicylic acid face lotion as well as the retinol anti-wrinkle dark spot corrector. I pray y’all never stop making this product because it actually shrinks your pores without your skin drying out to pay the price! My skin looks and feels wonderful.

I have combination skin that leans more toward oily, but can easily dry out.

*I received this complimentary from #influenster and #freemanbeauty in exchange for my honest, unbiased review* I am really enjoying these toners a lot! I have tried many brands over the years in my attempt to freeze my skin in time.

Lol. My skin care regimen is rather extensive so I really appreciate how fast these timers melt into my skin. It didn’t stall my routine whatsoever. There is zero fragrance to these that I can smell for those of you who don’t like a scent in your product.

I don’t mind either way but thought I would mention it because I know lots of people don’t like fragrance in skin care product. I really enjoy the icy/soothing feeling these toners give. It’s not a burning sensation, just a nice cooling one that I find really refreshing.

I highly recommend giving these a try if you are on the hunt for a great toner!.

I was highly skeptical a product could be more pore-refining than some of my current, more expensive products. In fact, I think it is. I couldn’t believe what it picked up on the cotton pad after I had already cleaned my skin – yikes! And with oily yet sensitive skin, this product is amazing for me.

I really love it has allantoin as it’s really soothing for sensitive skin. I am impressed, and would’ve thought I was using a far more expensive product. I wouldn’t have used this brand on my own as I’m often afraid of irritation with lower cost options (not always true, obviously, but I’ve been burned – literally – too many times before).

I recommend this! Note I did receive it complimentary for testing purposes, but the opinions are all mine.

I’ve used Freeman products for years so I was so excited to try this. The first time I used this and every time since I fall more in love! Give it a good shake and then put some on a cotton pad and wipe across your clean face and just marvel at how amazing you look and feel.

It does NOT dry out my skin, it actually leaves it looking and feeling very hydrated which is not something that usually happens with a toner that’s for deep cleaning. I use toner morning and night and my skin started to look brighter and more clear after just a few days.

There’s not a scent that I particularly notice which is something I like too because highly scented skin care is not my preference. Overall I absolutely love this toner!.

I don’t want to rate this bad because I do like it. But I will not buy again as there are similar products on the market for cheaper. So pro or con- this is a very gentle AHA. I can wear this two times a day with no issue and still feel like I need to do an exfoliating treatment at least once a week.

I think it’s good because ultimately this is a toner- so if you’re looking for a steady product this is it. But if you’re trying to use this a few times a week and get results this is not what you’re looking for.

I also want to differentiate between AHAs & BHAs- if you have oily or acne prone skin then you should be using a BHA (at least some of the time) over an AHA which this is. Personally I will be switching between this AHA (until I find a cheaper alternative) & Farmacy’s BHA.

It’s not a bad product- if you’re interested in AHAs and are okay with spending the money it’s worth trying. I also want to give a shout out to Peach & Lily’s matcha cream moisturizer & dew treatment essence which I looove and are totally worth the cost.

I had the WORST acne for over 5 years. I tried this toner with some other P&L products (The hydrating gel cleanser, the Dew Essense, the Glass Skin Serum, & the Matcha Antioxidant cream) and within a few months my skin was crystal clear.

It was like a dream come true. I literally had dreams of the moment I could walk out of the house without foundation, and Peach and Lily did that for me. Words can’t express how thankful I am but thank you all the same.

Guys, their products WORK. If you have terrible, cystic acne, TRY THEIR PRODUCTS.

Dr Dray on U tube recommended this a while back and I have used it since. I have a few spots on my face(I am 76 so they are age spots) and it seems like they have lightened. I use this after my double wash and before my Hada Laba Miracle gel and then the moisturizer.

My skin seems softer and looks healthy even at my age. I do not have acne so don’t know how it works on that but I do have dry skin and it seems so much more moist.

Really good, 5% niacinamide, you can use this whithout a serum with niacinamise.

This toner leaves my face so supple and smooth to the touch! My pores look so much smaller with continued use. It contains a special botanical complex that ensures hydration, more toned skin, and a smoother look.

This toner does a fantastic job exfoliating as you will feel a noticeable difference with the texture of your skin. After each use my face has this healthy glow that makes me look more alive and brighter! This is alcohol-free and contains gingko biloba leaf extract.

I’m officially a fan of Cindy Crawford’s skincare products. I would try her other products from this line.

This toner is very gentle. I have sensitive skin and this product does not irritate or dry my skin. It is hydrating and leaves the skin feeling soothed. I think that this product is too expensive. There are much less expensive toners available that deliver the same results, such as.

I prefer to spend my money on serums and creams. These products remain on the skin and treat it with ingredients that deliver results. Toner doesn’t offer the same impact, and therefore I choose to save money when it comes to this product.

If you want to spend the money, this is a great toner.

I was very skeptical of this but I really love it! I didn’t purchase it but it’s $33. My friend gave it to me to try and I loved it. It’s so gentle and non drying on your skin but it really does reduce the appearance of pores on your skin as well as softening your skin and gently exfoliating.

It’s definitely worth a try if your curious. Im not sure how well it would work on oily skin, I have normal/dry skin.

At first i was skeptical to use this product. I dont typically use scented products in my skin care routine. But its does not have an overpowering scent at all. Its refreshing and leaves clean feeling to the skin.

My skin is sensitive to fragrances yet no irritation, sticky or oily feeling. It left my skin so soft and hydrated, not dry or tight. My skin really liked. I definitely recommend buying this product.

I received this product as complementary in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own.

I recently received this product to try free of charge. The Freeman Korean Cherry Blossom Pore Minimizer Toner is absolutely wonderful. It does everything you want in a toner, without any stinging or burning from harsh additives.

This Cherry Blossom formula is very hydrating, and leaves my skin very soft and clean after use. I cant speak for the pore minimization claims as I havent used it long enough to see such results but I can say as an avid skincare lover, this is a great toner especially for this price point!.

I wanted a glowy/illuminating and hydrating skincare routine and this is a perfect toner. Super hydrating for sure, and I don’t know what it was but when i put this on for the first time it felt like absolute magic on my skin.

I apply with a cotton pad after cleanser and it is just amazing. Make sure you shake well 10/10 recommend for hydrating and dewy. I have combination/ dry skin.

I have sensitive and dry skin with enlarged pores and I am always looking for something that can help with that and this toner was a pleasant surprise! I am using for about a month now and I can see a difference.

It’s very lightweight and watery, I use it right after cleaning on my T-Zone and another more hydrating toner for the rest of my face and neck. I will definitely buy it again!.

I have combination and blemish skin. I love this toner, it is really light and help my skin to be balanced and avoid break out. After using it you immediately feel your skin literally absorbing it and a fresh sensation.

It helps also your skin for the glow. Love it!!.

The pore reducing toner keeps moisture into my skin and makes it feel a lot smoother. I really enjoy the scent it has, and how it applies onto the face. The amount of product they give you is really great as well.

However, although this toner is meant to minimize the appearance of pores, I have not yet seen a huge difference in the way my pores look on my face.

Let me start by saying I have oily and sensitive skin and I deal with rosacea, acne scarring, acne, and texture. With all of these issues, I have a hard time finding products that will work well with my skin without causing any irritation.

Having said that, when I first tried this toner, it was a deluxe size and I disliked it because of the smell (smells like Mr. Clean floor wash to me). But, after using my deluxe sample for a couple of weeks, I grew to really like the toner! It helped keep breakouts at bay, it balanced my skin, and was a great preparatory step for the rest of my skin care.

I use it day and night and I continue to enjoy it to this day. I’ve purchased 2 full sizes of this and I’ve numerous deluxe samples of it, too (the deluxe samples are beyond generous!). I would recommend this toner especially since the price point won’t break the bank!.

I usually use an acid toner 2-3 times a week, rather than a toner everyday. This one has natural salicylic acid (technically a BHA formula), so this was a great alternative for gentle, daily exfoliation.

My skin loved it, and I’ve noticed a daily difference in clarity, rather than a mid-week boost with my previous routine. 99% Natural Formula This toner will only enhance and not aggravate the skin. 20% of its contents are organically derived too, so blemished complexions needn’t worry about this stripping the skin.

Purify Pores The natural salicylic acid content, plus grapeseed polyphenols work together to improve the clarity of your skin. If you scroll up to my before and after, you’ll see that my complexion looks more even.

Ingredients list: Aqua/Water/Eau, Alcohol Denat. *, Rosa Damascena Flower Water*, Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Fruit Water*, Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside*, Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Juice*, Salicylic Acid*, Cymbopogon Citratus Leaf Oil*, Lavandula Hybrida Oil*, Melissa Officinalis Leaf Oil*, Mentha Piperita (Peppermint) Oil*, Pelargonium Graveolens Flower Oil*, Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Oil*, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Benzoate, Sodium Phytate, Arginine, Citric Acid, Citral*, Citronellol*, Geraniol*, Limonene*, Linalool* (182/035) Downside: This toner smells quite strong of lemon and mint, but only 100% natural fragrances are used.

I have purchased this toner 5 times now which says a lot considering I own over 50 toners at any given time. This toner is so refreshing and really helps with oily skin. It doesn’t ever dry out my skin but definitely helps to make it look matte.

After shaking it up I simply poor a small amount into my cupped hand and then just use my palms to pat it into my skin. I also love to make a face mist with it. To do this I mix it with another toner, due to the clay in the toner if there is to much of this toner it ends up clogging the spray bottle.

If you are sensitive to fragrance I would probably pick a different option this one has a menthol smell and feel which might be overwhelming to those who are sensitive. i always use a serum and or oil and a moisturizer on top of this so I’m not sure if using this alone would end up being to drying.

I’m a nurse who works 13 hr shifts in a dry, cold hospital. When I don’t use this product my face is oily within the first 5 hrs or so of my shift. The days I use this product I can walk out the door at the end of my 13 hr masked shift with dry skin.

Granted, the only time I have issues with oily skin is the days I work but that alone shows the product actually works. I highly recommend this product, it is my holy grail to combat hospital skin and the humid Florida weather.

I have that unfortunate combination skin where my t-zone is insanely oily (like I have to blot with 1-2 papers 6-7 times a day oily) but the rest of my face tends to get dry and scaly/flaky, especially in winter.

This stuff has actually changed my life. Now I’m down to blotting once or twice a day max, and for the first time in my life makeup actually stays on all day instead of breaking up and sliding off my face from all the oil.

Pro tip: pour this stuff into a spray bottle (I found a nice glass one on amazon for cheap cheap) and spritz it onto the oily parts of your face rather than doing what the bottle recommends and either pouring some in your hands and pressing it onto your face or using a cotton pad to dab it on.

I do this both before and after I apply my BB cream, and it works like a primer and a setting spray! I like to keep a bottle at work, too, and spritz throughout the day if I’m feeling extra oily. Bonus: it has a cooling sensation that both helps to shrink your pores and wake you up! About the alcohol, yes it does have some, but it’s not enough to dry out oily skin if used sparingly and it’s what actually makes this product work.

When you shake it up, the clay mixes with the alcohol, and then when it goes on your face, the alcohol evaporates leaving a nice matte finish. Definitely not for dry skin though.
