    Excellent Tonic

    Excellent tonic as part of my cleansing and prep program for day and night. I notice the effect it has on my skin and would not miss the step. It is not drying and has a revitalizing effect.

Frequently Asked Questions

What skin types is Active Tonic best for?

Customers with dry, sensitive, and combination skin all report excellent results. It’s lightweight, non-sticky, and hydrating, making it suitable for all skin types.

How do I use Active Tonic in my routine?

Apply after cleansing with a cotton pad, then wait about a minute before applying your serum or cream.  Many customers say it helps their moisturizer absorb better and enhances results.

Does it have a strong scent?

No — customers describe it as “subtle” and “pleasant.” It’s a refreshing step that feels luxurious, not overpowering.

Will it dry out my skin like some toners?

Active Tonic is an Alcohol-free formulation; doesn't strip skin of natural oils.

Can it be used morning and night?

Yes — it’s gentle enough for twice-daily use. Many customers love it in the morning for freshness and in the evening to prep skin for creams.

What’s the difference between Activator Gel and Active Tonic?

Activator Gel is used after cleansing and rinsed off after 2–3 minutes. It increases microcirculation and helps your skin absorb products more effectively. Active Tonic is applied after Activator Gel (or directly after cleansing) with a cotton pad — it tones, balances pH, and gently micro-exfoliates to prepare the skin for serums and creams.
