In the extreme climatic conditions such as in Delhi my skin becomes acne prone and oily. I started using this toner on the recommendation of a friend and fell in love with it from the first use. I have been using it for almost two months and my love for it has grown because of the wonderful results.

Personal Experience:
After
cleansing my face I like to dab a few drops of the seaweed toner on the cotton
and just apply it all over my face. A few drops will be more than enough to do
the work. When I look at the cotton after applying it, I can see the dirt and
makeup on the cotton. It removes all excess traces of makeup and cleanser with
ease. It leaves my skin feeling purified, refreshed, conditioned, shine-free
and glowing.
It has
menthol which cools, soothes and refreshes the
skin. For me it takes away all the heat and stress after a stressful day
of Delhi Summers. The toner refines the pores and hence reduces the breakout or
acne. I have personally noticed a reduced breakout of acne and much lesser
blackheads on my T-zone. I like to use it after removing facial hair as
it soothes my skin and protects it from all sorts of puffiness, redness
and allergic reactions which I used to get earlier.
There is nothing about this product which I do not like expect for the price bar; the cost of the product is quite steep which is not an issue as it performs it jobs well but for some it might be expensive. However, The Body Shop Seaweed Clarifying Toner is perfect for oily and acne prone skin.
