Description:

A balancing toner for acne-prone skin with enlarged pores, skin nodules, blackheads and blemishes. This type of skin is common if you have oily or redness-prone skin. The toner contains malic acid found in apples, blueberries and cranberries, which helps to improve the appearance of enlarged pores, enhances skin texture and prevents new blackheads. What’s more, it also moisturizes and brightens the skin thanks to apple extract and sodium lactate. It’s antioxidant ingredient is an organic apple extract from apple tree (certified by ECOCERT), which is rich in B vitamins, C vitamin and AHAs. This extract stimulates skin repair, moisturizes and smoothes. When used regularly, the toner restores the balance of your acne-prone skin.

Usage:

It is easy to apply the right dose of the product as it comes in a spray bottle with an atomiser.

How to use the toner:

With a reusable pad:  apply the toner with a reusable cotton pad to the face and neck, avoiding the area around the eyes and mouth,

With a non-sterile gauze: a small non-sterile gauze pad has a mesh structure that perfectly exfoliates the face. Use this type of gaze if you want to get an even better cleansing, smoothing or light exfoliating effect (you can buy it in a pharmacy),

With your fingertips: this is the most gentle way. You can also apply the tonic with your fingertips. First spray the toner on your fingers and then gently apply to the entire face or individual parts (forehead, nose or chin).

When to use the toner:

We recommend using the toner after cleansing your face in order to restore the right pH, especially in the evening. When you sleep, your skin regenerates so the toner’s ingredients work best (especially malic acid). Obviously you can also use the toner in the morning or during the day. You can use the toner in a fortnight and then take a five day break. Repeat this treatment as long as you like:-) You can even try using the toner every other day. Slight tingling or redness at the beginning is normal, and you may feel this the first few times using organic acids. If the problem persists, take a few days break and try again.

OUR COMMITMENTS - THIS IS HOW WE WORK:

Packaging:

You will find both glass (bottles) and plastic (PET) in our packaging. We deliberately do not use glass where it is dangerous (e.g. a jar can break and glass particles may get into the product). Glass as such is not environmentally-friendly as it is difficult and expensive to recycle. It also needs to be washed before reuse which requires plenty of water – our precious resource. We are currently searching for a company which produces packaging from recycled materials (so called Bio-PET). If you produce such packaging, please contact us. We are looking for you! Unfortunately, this trend is not yet on the rise in Poland. We are also working hard on plastic packaging and that is why we give a second life to recycled materials. We outsource the production of accessories from RPET (recycled PET bottles). In this way we are taking steps to eliminate plastic by converting it into a new useful product. In a short time you will find such products in our offer so that you will be able to give ‘a second life’ to plastic ;-)

What can you do yourself?  Please segregate our packaging into a proper waste container. Remove the unused product, separate the packaging from the cap and put it in the bin labelled ‘plastic’. In this way you will help us to close the recycling process.

Recycled labels:

Our labels are environmentally friendly as they are consciously made of 100% recycled paper, both Blue Angel and ISEGA certified. We use a water-based adhesive so if they get into water - they will be wet. However, they will dry out and stay in place. Try to keep this in mind and avoid water on the labels.

Conscious shipping:

When preparing our products for shipping, we do not use neither bubble wrap nor other plastic materials. The product you receive from us will be packed in a cardboard box with recycled paper and a linen cord. You can also try to reuse our planet’s resources yourself. How? In each package you will find a leaflet with a few recommendations on how to be an eco-conscious consumer ;-)

How do we protect our products (by using organic, friendly and safe preservatives):

In our products you will find either distilled water or plant hydrolates. In this type of products, we need to use preservatives in order to make sure that they are safe for our customers. Our company uses an organic preservative system that is accepted by the ECOCERT organization, which consists of 3 organic acids (dehydroacetic acid, sorbic acid, benzoic acid) and benzyl alcohol.
