Garnier Organics Thyme Toner Reviews

The toner comes in a clear/green tinted plastic bottle.

The toner itself is very watery and smrlls pleasantly of thyme. My skin is combination/ oily and prone to break out. I've had no change in break out while using this product. Nor has it had any effect on my pores. I didn't find it had any effect apart from feeling fresh, clean and rejuvinated.

I have combo skin with a very oily t-zone, so a toner is pretty essential for my skin care routine. Unfortunately this one didn't really do it for me.

The pros. - The scent is really wonderful - I love herby smells, there's something very natural and earthy about herb-scented skin care. - The bottle is easy to hold, and a generous size. - The lid is very secure. - A good price.

The negatives: - It's very astringent. My skin felt incredibly tight almost immediately after use. - It's very dry. After just two uses this left me with a dry patch on my chin that is still there a week later!

I think if you have incredibly oily skin you could use this daily, but for this oily girl it's just far too stripping and harsh for even occasional use.

So, I guess, yes it does what it says, and if my friend had a super-greasy face I'd recommend they try it, but for me - it's a big fat no.

I picked this up while Garnier was 50% off at countdown along with a few other products. The first thing I noticed was the smell, the scent is very strong and I am undecided if I like it or not. I do prefer fruit scents though. I haven't noticed any 'ground braking' changes to my skin, although it does leave me feeling refreshed. I will finish this bottle but don't think I will purchase again

This toner definitely packs a punch scent wise! The thyme is very strong and I think at times it can smell a bit like a strong mouthwash.

Despite this, it did feel nice on my skin and I felt it did tone quite nicely. It didn't react with my sensitive skin which is nice considering it is aimed for combination to oily skin. It does contain salicylic acid which I wouldn't normally use, but it is known to help with blemishes so that is good.

I think the design of the bottle is clean and crisp and it fits in really well with the range. It looks quite classy and sleek which I like.

Love that is states that the thyme was grown in France and that it is a vegan product. Just makes it that extra bit relateable. On the back it also shows the source of all of the ingredients which is a really nice touch. There is a big difference with saying something is vegan and or organic, but having that information on the bottle makes it a lot more believable.

Best part is that the bottle is made with 100% recycled plastic and is recyclable.

Great product and I will continue to use it, just be wary of the scent.

I was so excited to try this product alongside the cleanser and moisturiser- as they’re all vegan/natural-based products and suitable for sensitive skin which is right up my alley!!! I like the packaging colour scheme- the green and white combo with a see-through plastic so that you can see the toner inside! I also like that on the back, it’s got the list of ingredients and where they come from (the natural source), which was really cool! It was really to distribute the product onto a cotton pad as well- I thought too much would come out, but the hole is small enough so that only a small amount comes out so it’s easy to control! It felt nice on my skin as well and was easy to spread on the cotton pad. My skin didn’t react at all either!! I thought the salicylic acid would be too strong for my skin, but I was pleasantly surprised! It felt nice and clean afterwards, not dry or tight. It does smell like thyme and is fragrant, however I like thyme and actually kind of liked it, it was nice and fresh. To be honest I haven’t noticed a difference in my pore size yet as it says on the bottle (may need to use this longer to tell) or any difference to my skin from this, but overall it seems to sit well on my skin. I do have a dry skin type, where it says its for normal/combination, so that may also be why I haven’t seen any real effects on my skin yet (plus it’s only been 2 weeks of use!). Overall, I am not sure if I would repurchase it- I will need continue using it to see the long term effects on my skin!

The Garnier Organic Thyme Toner is packaged in a slender tube, made from recycled materials. The design and look of the packaging is really nicely done - you know you're getting a more natural product.

Unfortunately the best thing about this product is probably the packaging and the smell. The thyme fragrance is perfectly done - not too strong, but also strong enough that you can enjoy it for a while after use.

The actual product is just too harsh for my skin. I have oily skin and was looking forward to refined pores, but this product tightened them so much my skin felt dry and uncomfortable.

I noticed dry flakes of skin on my cheeks.

I wouldn't use this but if someone with very oily skin wanted a quick fix, I believe this would help.

Hmmmm not sure about this one. I got back into toners a few years ago so I was super excited to try this.

It smells really nice and comes in a nice size bottle with a flip top. It did the job well and removed the vestige of my make up. Thing is that I found it really drying.

My skin can pretty much tolerate anything and i'm not sure what it is about this product but the toner was definitely what was causing it. I stopped using the toner, just using the other two products I was sent and the dry patches went away.

Look it's a nice product, just not right for me. 3/5

Packaging similar to the rest of the range except this one has an image of thyme on it. Also just a normal lid no pump. This one smells stronger to me though not in an offensive way. I did find it to be slightly drying though it did not overly concern me as I always follow up with moisturiser anyway.

This toner smells very fresh and minty ,creates a little bit white foam when you applied it on face , if used too much face will feel sticky ,minimised the pores a little bit but it does not last long and dont do anything to oily skin controlling .

I never used a toner before so this was my first. I was super excited and I loved it’s smell. It cleared my skin but made my skin dry. It irritated my kin every time. Now I have a rash. I have discontinued this product. I have combination and sensitive skin.
