Who is it for?

Anyone who likes to use a hydrating mist. :) We especially recommend Liquid Hydration, if your skin prefers multiple, light hydrating layers, is prone to dehydration, or is sensitive, or you are using strong actives (e.g. anti-acne such as benzoyl peroxide or anti-aging such as tretinoin) known to dry the skin or compromise the skin barrier.

how to use it?

After cleansing, apply mist morning and/or evening. Close your eyes and spray all over your face from about 20-25 cm (~9 inches) away. Let it sink in and follow with the rest of your routine. 

If you also use a liquid exfoliant (such as Smooth Out, Cheer Up or Calm Down), we recommend to start with the exfoliant and follow with the toner spray. If you use C-Glow with Liquid Hydration, we recommend to start with C-Glow and follow with Liquid Hydration mist.

Tonico viso idratante

Lo uso subito dopo la detersione e prima di una essence. Ottimo sia per gli ingredienti sia per il rapporto qualità prezzo

Is this real life?

It’s been two weeks using Geek and Gorgeous products. Two years I’ve been treating my atopic dermatitis with steroid ointment because EVERYTHING is a trigger. Even hormones! This toner has helped hydrate and heal my stripped skin. I use ILIA tinted serum over it with not extra lotion and I tell you! The combination is perfectly glowing balanced skin. Thank you so much for existing I haven’t seen my skin look this good in years. Please never change!!

Love

I have been using this toner since it came out, absolutely in love with it, i even gifted it to my friend, because i wanted her to try it and she also is loving it. I have a lightly dry face. And this is a perfect add on for my skin routine. I use it every day in the morning and at my night skincare routine.

Works great any time of day

I use it in the morning after cleansing my face, but I also use it again before bed. Sometimes, I give myself an extra spray in the middle of the day, even with my make-up on. It absorbs quickly and feels so light.
