  Absolutely great

  ✨ First impression Very special consistency!! Clearly a hybrid formula between serum and toner. I also accidentally took too much the first time. Significantly more economical than a regular facial water. Smells a bit sharp at first but thankfully has a pleasant scent that settles quickly. 🧡 About me I have dry skin that is somewhat sensitive. I always use facial water and serum morning and night, usually choosing something that is mild and moisturizing. 🏵️ My thoughts and experiences I like the product more and more with each use. I feel very fresh in my skin and it also becomes sooooo soft and gets a nice glow. Even the morning after, before I wash my face, I feel that my skin is softer than usual 😍 I find the scent fresh and pleasant, nothing that continued to bother me after the first time. Incredibly economical! I love how easy the bottle is to press and that you get that little... flap? 😅 It makes the product incredibly easy to use and also to dose correctly. I could consider buying again, but unfortunately it probably won't be my first choice as I have another big favorite that is hard to beat for me. 🍁 Summary ➕ 🌹 Becomes soft and gets a nice glow 🌹 User-friendly, incredibly nice bottle 🌹 Super economical 🌹 My skin neither tightened nor burned ➖ 🥀 Felt sufficient as a facial water but not as a serum. Had to use my serum on top to feel sufficiently moisturized. ✨💖 4/5 💖✨ lykoinflutester mariobadescu

    @Johanna Sabine Emma Viktoria Jana Yes, but of course it is, we all have different opinions and are different, and isn't that a good thing? 🥰 It makes it much more fun! 😁 But I actually also prefer fragrance-free and have issues with many scents. This one, however, worked strangely enough 💖

  Exciting toner

  Hydrating Glow Toner With Jojoba & PHA I've used a fair amount of toners, but I've always felt that they dry out the skin, so I was very excited about this one since it’s supposed to provide moisture. Easy to find consistency, easy to apply, I’ve patted it into the skin. Smells like little to nothing, pleasant on the skin and hydrates really well! I feel like my skin is cleaner and less dry after using it for a while. Feels like a mix of serum and toner, so it’s very pleasant on the skin. Good price and very economical in use😍 10/10 #MARIOBADESCU #Lykoinflutester

  I have tested this toner for a while as a #lykoinflutester and I'm not completely convinced, while I like the product more than I thought I would. The toner is a bit thicker in consistency than I'm used to, and smells a bit strong. Still, I find that it provides surprisingly good moisture. I tested it while I was abroad and in the sun every day. I found it very pleasant on my skin in the evening, especially if it had been kept a bit cool (but maybe that's not advisable regarding shelf life?) All in all, I think the product moisturizes well and is a good addition to my routine, but I don't feel like I need it. The bottle is large and very reasonably priced, so it doesn't hurt to try. I find it mild despite it also being exfoliating. I don't know if it has given me much glow, but it definitely provides moisture. #MARIOBADESCU

  I’m a fan! 🙋‍♀️

  A pleasant toner that doesn’t sting and moisturizes well! I have combination and acne-prone skin. First of all, I was very surprised by the packaging! It has a really cool tip where the product comes out (see video). The product is economical in use. The liquid spreads more than you think on a cotton pad, so the first few times I used it, I got a bit too much product on. The consistency is quite thick for a toner. I prefer using it with a cotton pad morning and night or after cleansing. It provides nice moisture and a good base for further skincare. It also effectively removes any makeup residue along the hairline, for example. It has a lovely scent and spreads evenly on the skin. I don’t know if I think the product gave a very glow, but it is definitely a fairly mild exfoliating toner. Good size of the packaging too! Recommended ✨ #MARIOBADESCU #LYKOINFLUTESTER

  Such a shame that it’s so strongly scented!

  I got the chance as a #lykoinflutester to try this product for a month. It’s a "serum-toner" with jojoba and PHA, which is supposed to provide radiance, hydrate, and gently exfoliate the skin. I have oily skin by nature but have recently been extremely dry and thus sensitive, so that has been my starting point when trying this product. When I look at the ingredients, I find it sounds interesting. Jojoba nourishes the skin and protects it, as well as hydrates nicely. Sodium hyaluronate is a form of hyaluronic acid and works to hydrate. Gluconolactone is a PHA acid, this form of acid has larger molecules than AHA and BHA and therefore doesn’t penetrate as deeply into the skin. It works more on the skin's surface, and therefore the exfoliation isn’t as powerful. PHA acid also acts as an antioxidant and helps to bind moisture in the skin. So we have several hydrating factors here and a little exfoliation. The packaging is 236 ml, a good size. It has a dropper that you lift up to get the liquid out, which feels like a smart thing. That the product is a "serum-toner" is felt in the consistency, as it really feels like something in between a serum and a toner in thickness. The first thing that strikes me when I’m about to apply the product is that it’s unfortunately quite heavily scented. It’s on the verge of being overwhelming. I think this is soooooo unfortunate, and I have a hard time understanding the decision to include so much fragrance in a product that also contains an acid. There’s a much higher risk that it will irritate the skin. The fact is that it stings a little when you apply it, it’s not too bad and goes away quite quickly, but I would unfortunately not recommend the product to you if you are sensitive 😔 Otherwise, it absorbs into the skin quite quickly, but leaves a slight feeling of a film behind. Nothing I had a problem with in itself, and I feel half-hydrated after using this. If it weren’t for the scent, I would almost like it - BUT not to use every day. I tested it from the start, but my skin didn’t like it at all and I broke out. A couple of times a week works fine, though. The conclusion is that I give it three stars because it doesn’t feel completely bad, I would probably give it four if it weren’t for the strong fragrance. This is the first thing I’ve ever tried from the brand Mario Badescu, as I was influenced by the scandal when it was revealed that they had prescription steroids in some products they sold. That’s probably overplayed now, but I can’t help but still be a little skeptical. #lykoinflutester #mariobadescu

  Nice, but hard for me to say more

  I think this is a really nice product that suits many different skin types. Personally, I use Epiduo, which is a pretty strong acne treatment, and therefore I avoid active ingredients most of the time. I have tried the product a couple of times and see a nice glow, and the product is easy to use compared to other toners I have tried. It is very nice to apply, with a consistency that is a bit thicker than water but not quite serum or cream. I also haven't seen a negative reaction, which I was worried about since jojoba oil can clog my skin. I would be cautious about this if you are particularly acne-prone, but otherwise a pretty nice product for glow and even skin tone! I also noticed that it contains perfume, but it wasn't something I felt was overwhelming. I wish I could say more, but I'm looking forward to letting my friends try it and hearing what they think! #lykoinflutester #mariobadescu

  Lovely with glow 💗

  This feels lovely! 🤍 I have been cautious with stronger acids in recent years, so I think this formula suits me perfectly! Classic combination skin, oilier t-zone, and acne-prone. I love the bottle with the dropper. Easy to get the product out and close it, without a lid that gets messy or disappears. Such things give extra bonus 🥰 The formula feels like a slightly thicker toner. Like a mix of facial water and serum. Super nice! It has no special scent and absorbs quite quickly into the skin, without stickiness. I might not think of this as my most glowing product, but it absolutely gives a nice glow, and in the long run, it feels like a perfect choice when you want to work on moisture, glow, and an even skin tone. I am happily surprised by this and will keep it in my routine with joy! ✨ #MARIOBADESCU #LYKOINFLUTESTER
