"The Vanilla Milk Toner was criticized for containing fragrance and drying ingredients that many complained weren't suitable for all skin types. I think the way this was being sold as suitable for all skin types is what really kind of made people look at these products and be like that's not suitable for all skin types."

"I don't normally use toners because most of the ingredients in products that I use are pH balanced so there's no need for a toner in there, toner is just a marketing ploy, you should be able to balance your pH with cleanser. But it smells of coconut so it's quite nice. It feels very soft and it doesn't actually get absorbed into the skin for me. Even when you wash it off it feels quite moisturizing. The problem here is that there's perfume in this, which is really sad actually, because there's a lot of nice things here with avocado extract, apple fruit extract, castor oil, jojoba seed oil, and one of my favorite ingredients, centella asiatica extract, which is great for the skin barrier and great for collagen building as well, but then it's just ruined by the addition of the fragrance, which really I don't feel like they need it. Some people want that sort of milky texture and it feels very nice. You either get gel texture or cream, so not everyone wants the milky stuff, but I think it's a decent product and it certainly feels very nice on."

"It's actually really nice. I don't normally use toners because most of the ingredients in most of the products that I use are pH balanced so there's no need for a toner. It smells of coconut so it's quite nice. It feels very soft and it doesn't actually get absorbed into the skin. You should have to wash it off. Even when you wash it off it feels quite moisturizing. There's a lot of nice things here with avocado extract, apple fruit extract, castor oil, jojoba seed oil, and condra Christmas extract which is great for the skin barrier and great for collagen building as well. But there's perfume in this product which is really sad because there's some good things in here and then it's just ruined by the addition of that."

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Humectants and emollients

Ingredients like these draw water into the surface layers and slow how fast it leaves. The evidence is for comfort, softness and hydration rather than for changing the structure of the skin.

Vitamin E

Vitamin E is an antioxidant, and it is often in a formula to keep the other ingredients stable rather than as the active itself. It pairs well with vitamin C, though on its own the evidence for visible change is limited.
