Green People Gentle Toner


Review of Green People Gentle Toner
By Helen K.

Packaging:
The Green People Gentle Toner comes in a plastic tube and is packaged within a cardboard box. All packaging is recyclable.

Application:
It has a cool gel texture is lightly fragranced with Rose Geranium essential oil. It is very simple and easy to use and a little goes a long way. Squeeze a small amount, approx a 10 pence amount, onto a cotton wool pad and gently wipe over the face and neck.

Ingredients:
At a glance, the list of ingredients seems extensive. However, this is due to legislation and common names are labelled along side the Latin. The Green People Gentle Toner contains mostly Organic ingredients and these are highlighted amongst the list. This Green People product is free of parabens, synthetic perfumes, petrochemicals, DEA TEA, PEGs, Lanolin, PABA, Alcohol, sodium lauryl sulphate and harsh additives. It also has no sunscreen protection in it.

Results:
With the first application my skin felt clean and moisturised. There was no stinging either and the tone of my skin was even not the sensitive, red blotchy mess that often other toners leave.

Pros:
It has a light floral smell
It has a mild moisturising action
It doesn’t sting, dry or leave my skin feeling sensitive
Organic and completely recyclable
Is not tested on animals and Vegan society approved

Cons:
The Green People product leaves a slightly clammy feel for a few moments until any excess is absorbed by the skin (this is only a fleeting texture).

The Green People Gentle Toner (£7.82 50ml) and other Green People products are available at Naturisimo.com
