Thayers Lavender Alcohol-Free Toner with Witch Hazel Aloe Vera

I have been pleasantly surprised by this Thayers Lavender Alcohol-Free Toner with Witch Hazel Aloe Vera. I haven't used toner in years as they used to be alcohol based, so would dry out my normal-dry skin.

This toner is not alcohol based and is instead, lovely and refreshing on the skin. I applied the lightly lavender fragranced toner with a damp cotton pad. It easily removed the last of my cleanser and makeup, preparing my skin for my moisturiser. It left my skin feeling nourished and made my moisturiser spread more easily, added bonus being that I used less product!

This lovely product comes in a fairly plain plastic bottle with a pop top that has a small dispenser top underneath. The bottle works fine. I have been accessing the product by using a make up pad, pouring it onto the pad and rubbing it into my skin.

The product is thin and watery and has a lovely soft scent of lavender. After applying it, it dries quickly and leaves a soft fresh feel, and as per the product claim, does not sting the sensitive areas of my skin, nor dry out my skin. It removes left over markup and grime very efficiently when I haven't cleansed my skin very well at the end of the day.

It comes in a large 355ml bottle and is $17.99 at Chemist Warehouse, a fair price for such a large bottle that will last for ages. I most certainly recommend it to people who like to use toner or who are after an easy, gentle answer to skin hydration.

I love that it doesn't contain alcohol. It does hydrate my skin and leaves it feeling fresh, clean and soft, which is what I want and expect in a good toner. I can't say my skin tone looks more even, but it does meet the other claims. So all in all, it is a very good product that mostly does what it says it will do.

Nice product to use. Most toners leave my skin dry but Thayers toner didn’t and left it feeling refreshed. Air had a nice smell that wasn’t too overwhelming. I also really liked the packaging. Would recommend and use again.

Stoked to be accepted for another trial team. Initial thoughts: the packaging and label seemed a tad dated but probably true to its origin roots. I like it though.

Easy to use and disperse product. Slight lavender scent which I enjoy using daily. Skin feels refreshed after use. Rather enjoy this toner. I always factor price into reviews but as I don't know the price range I can't comment on it.

However, I like this and would be keen to purchase in future.

Thayers Lavender Alcohol-Free Toner with Witch Hazel Aloe Vera comes in a large clear bottle with a distinctive red top. It's large size and low price makes it hard to beat on the affordability front. I've used it twice a day for over two weeks and I'd say I haven't even used 5% of the bottle, with some basic maths that would put it at approximately 500 uses per bottle which is pretty amazing.

Then first opening the inner seal in the lid was super difficult to get off - it needs longer grab tabs to be less of a pain. Once the seal is gone, the lip is easy to open, pouring out toner onto a cotton pad or similar and swiping across your face. I do wish it came in a spray top though, meaning you wouldn't have to use cotton pads etc. Feels like it's creating needless waste.

On application the toner smells ever so slightly of lavender but also something else vaguely chemically smelling that I couldn't quite pick - but maybe that's the witch hazel.

The toner left my skin feeling ok, but maybe more 'dry' than my usual (although maybe this is just the difference between my regular toner that sprays on, rather than having to be swiped around), but I definitely didn't notice the dewy, moisturised or improved skin texture as promised.

Overall it's better than anything I've bought in the supermarket, it's doesn't strip your skin and is super good value for money. I'd say it's the second best toner I've tried. Would definitely recommend if you are looking for something new to try.

This product is easy to use, doesn't dry your skin out and leaves it feeling fresh and amazing. It smells amazing the size of the bottles means it lasts awhile.

I don't normally use facial toners so this was new to me. I do find it helps cleanse the skin more, (I thought my skin was clean, but there was always extra makeup on the toner pad). It had a nice light pleasant fragrance, and definitely felt cooling to apply. It absorbed quickly which I liked to, so I could carry on with my routine. I think my face does definitely feel slightly softer, but I havent noticed any other effects yet. I have actually had a few spots pop up which may be attributed to this toner.... I will definitely continue with this and see if the other results happen in time. I think this would work well in a misting/spray bottle to apply to your face for a cooling effect when needed as it states you can apply it as often as you like. Great for those hot flushes!! Another plus is the bottle will last a long time. Thank you for the opportunity to try this.

I’ve used a whole bottle of the un scented Thayers toner and loved it. I thought I’d try a scented one. I did notice the lavender one did irritate my skin a little bit but nothing too serious. Not sure if I will re-purchase but I will definitely be buying the un scented one again

I was excited to try this toner as I love a product that can cleanse, tone and moisturise all in one! I was surprised to see the packaging, which is quite ‘old worldly’ - I can honestly say if I saw this on the shelf I probably wouldn’t buy it (it’s crazy how we judge things by their packaging!). The look is a bit strange and unappealing, I thought. The bottle is large which is great as there is lots of product. I applied using a cotton pad and wiped the product on after my usual cleanse routine. I found it good for removing anything (makeup, dirt etc) that my cleanser had missed. I experienced a bit of stinging/tingling when applying the product - nothing major but it did warm my skin a bit but it calmed quickly. The lavender smell was subtle and I liked the scent. My skin was noticeably clean and soft after application and I could definitely feel the moisturising effect. I’m not big on applying moisturiser as it makes my skin feel a bit greasy so this was a great product to use, especially under my make up, to stop any excess shine but still leave my skin soft Even though I wouldn’t have picked it myself, I was happy with the product.

My skin felt really good after using the toner, it felt really healthy and full of mositure. My skin looked amazing as well..would recommend it.
