The scent:
It has a light fresh smell, that fades few seconds after applying it.
The performance:
This product is one of those love-or-hate type of product, many people love it and even swear by it, while just as many people dislike it. So which team am I?
Before answering this question, lemme first answer a question that almost everybody is asking: what makes this 10in1 version any different than the previous one?
I personally have never tried the 7in1 version, so I can't really answer based on my personal experience, but by comparing the ingredients (you can find the previous version's ingredients here), I can tell that they are pretty similar, sure some ingredients' order has changed which means the concentration has changed too (for example, the Alcohol became 2nd instead of 3rd, which means the new version has a higher alcohol concentration), but they are still similar, which means, if you loved the previous version you would most likely love this one as well, and if you disliked it, I don't think there is anything that would change your mind about it, much more if the reason you disliked it in the first place is alcohol.
And now, lemme answer this question: did he do me wonders like it claims? Well unfortunately no. I'm not saying that I dislike it since it is a good toner, but that's all it is. It does moisturize my skin and leave it less tight, and also helps the other products get absorbed easily, it also softens my skin and removes any excess sebum (I rarely have), but it doesn't in any way deep cleanse my pores or make them less visible or anything else it claims, but I repeat, it is a good toner.

Summary
Pros:
- Didn't break me out (but it might break me out sometime later due to the +/- high alcohol concentration)
- Fresh smell
- Good toner
- Moisturizing
- Fresh smell
- Good toner
- Moisturizing
Cons:
- Alcohol (if you are alcohol intolerant or have an extremely dry skin, I don't think it would work for you... )
- It isn't as wonderful as they make it sound..
- It isn't as wonderful as they make it sound..
Would I repurchase it?
I don't think so. Don't get me wrong it is a good toner but it just didn't reach all those high expectations that were built after reading all those reviews. Maybe it just didn't work for me but would work for you. So for now, I'll keep using it for sure but once I'm out of it, I'll rather try some new toners.
Where can you buy it?
- Amazon for $11.99
