  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 💖

  Got worse skin

  I got to test this product from #MARIOBADESCU as a #LYKOINFLUTESTER. My skin is combination and has periods where it easily gets blemishes. I had a baby in January and since the pregnancy, I've felt that my skin has had more blemishes, so I was excited to try some new skincare products. Unfortunately, I was disappointed. Instead of better skin, I experienced more pimples and blemishes. I thought it felt good to wear, but I noticed no improvement, rather that my skin got worse. I used the spray in combination with their REPAIRING FACIAL Spray With Hypochlorous Acid every evening. I appreciated that it was fragrance-free and it came in a nice sleek packaging.

  Loves more than it gives

  Was so lucky to test out 3 different products from Mario Badescu through Lyko's Influtester program, this was 1 of them. This toner feels more like a hybrid product – a kind of combination of toner and light serum. It has a milky white consistency, and even though it’s called “hydrating,” it actually feels quite light on the skin. It contains PHA, which exfoliates gently without irritating, and jojoba oil that provides a light moisture boost. What I liked: • It absorbs quickly into the skin and leaves a light glow without making the skin shiny. • PHA is a safe exfoliant for those struggling with a bit of blemished skin without having sensitive skin – it doesn’t clog pores and gives a gradually more even skin tone. • Mild enough for daily use, without the skin feeling tight or irritated. What brought it down: • It does little for visible blemishes – nothing noticeable on pores, red spots, or skin texture over time. • Also doesn’t provide enough “plump” feeling to feel like a proper moisturizing toner. • The design promises more glow than it actually gives – especially if you’re not already struggling with dull skin. In summary: A nice toner for balancing the skin and adding some light care. Not a miracle product, but it works fine as a step in a routine for combination or normal skin with a bit of tendency to blemishes. #lykoinflutester #mariobadescu #lykoreview

    Hi Monica❤️ Thank you so much for a thorough and nuanced review! 💚 We really appreciate that you took the time to test and share your experience with Mario Badescu – this gives both us and other customers valuable insight. It sounds like you really paid attention to how the product behaves on your skin, and we think it’s especially nice that you mention both what you like and what could be better. We completely agree that PHA can be a nice alternative for a gentler exfoliation, but that the results often come gradually and vary a bit from skin to skin. We hope you’ve found a place for the toner in your routine – or that you might continue testing and find something that hits just right for your skin! ✨💦

  Good and gentle

  My first impression of this toner was that it gave a nice glow to the skin. I felt that it made my skin feel clean and hydrated while also giving it that nice glow. 💛 I only prefer to use this after cleansing by using a cotton pad and gently swiping it over my face. Then I also feel like I get a little extra cleansing for my skin. I have sensitive and acne-prone skin but did not react to this at all! 🤩 Highly recommended! #LYKOINFLUTESTER #MARIOBADESCU

  Gives a nice glow!

  I have been a #lykoinflutester for a while and got to test some skincare products from the brand #MARIOBADESCU 🤩 This is a new brand for me, so it's super fun to try! Since skincare often takes quite a long time to see an end result, these reviews are more focused on first impressions and similar. This review is on their hydrating glow toner! My first impression of this was the consistency, personally I have never used a toner with such a thick consistency as this, but I like it, feels almost more like a serum. I have pretty dry skin that requires a lot of moisture, so it fits well to start pumping in moisture already in the first step of the routine! This gives a very hydrated feeling and a very nice glow without looking oily! In summary, I really like this and will definitely continue to use it! 🫶🏼

  Gentle exfoliation every day🤩

  This toner has become a nice addition to my skincare routine✨ Since I have normal skin, but with some milia on my cheekbones, I look for products that provide gentle exfoliation without being too strong – and this delivers just that 💆🏼‍♀️ PHA provides a gentle yet effective exfoliation, and my skin feels hydrated and balanced after use💧 The consistency is a bit thicker than other toners I’ve tried, but it absorbs nicely. It has a mild scent, but nothing that feels overwhelming🍃 I like to use it as the next step after cleansing to remove any remaining dirt, but it obviously can’t replace a thorough cleanse🫧 A big bonus is that it’s economical in use and has a reasonable price considering how much product you get🤍 Absolutely a toner I will continue with! #lykoinflutester #mariobadescu

  Surprised at how good this actually was

  I’m used to toners often being very watery and liquid, but this had a completely different consistency. You didn’t need much of the product on a cotton pad before you could apply it all over your face. I really liked the scent, it was a mix of peppermint and something else that smells fresh, if I’m trying to explain the scent. I have a combination skin type, where I can often get dry or have breakouts in the T-zone, but after I started using this, more of the impurities in the affected area disappeared. ❤️ Economical in use, needs very little product ❤️ Lovely scent ❤️ Skin feels hydrated and soft after application 😒 Should come with instructions on how to use the toner #influtester #mariobadescu

  Make the skin calm and fresh

  I have used this product every day for about 4 weeks, and here are my thoughts and opinions. My skin is slightly acne-prone with quite a few red spots/breakouts. I am not sensitive, leaning more towards oily skin and am rarely dry, but it can happen if I have gone too hard with strong products. 32 years old and have tried most things on my face regarding products! I really like this toner! It is thick in consistency, so it is much firmer than a classic toner, which reminds me more of a serum! I prefer this thick consistency much more than a classic toner. It feels much more effective, and above all, no unnecessary product is wasted! I haven't noticed that it has any scent at all; it feels quite "clinically clean"! My skin has really benefited from the product; together with the friend REPAIRING FACIAL Spray With Hypochlorous Acid from the same brand, I see an incredible difference in my skin! It is rare that I see such a quick effect! Additionally, it has used extremely little product; I use it morning and night, and in the picture, you can clearly see how much is left after about 60 uses!! The thing that brings it down from 5 to 4 is that I don't think I get the effect it actually claims to give, to provide a glow. Instead, after 4 weeks, I have gotten a more subdued and nice skin; maybe it will take a few more weeks to see a difference regarding glow! #lykoinflutester #mariobadescu

  Both ➕ and ➖

  For a couple of weeks, I've had the opportunity to test this Hydrating Glow Toner With Jojoba & PHA from Mario Badescu. As I mentioned earlier, I find it genuinely difficult to give an opinion this round, as I would have liked more time 🥺❤️ I have combination skin, and at times acne breakouts. That said, I think so far the product is OK, despite no major changes during this period. ➕long-lasting in use ➖strong scent ➖little glow I wasn't prepared for the consistency, as it is a bit thick. In other words: you get far with a little 🤭❤️ #LYKOINFLUTESTER #MARIOBADESCU

  Lovely toner!

  As one of Lyko's Influtesters, I got to try this product and my opinion of this product is 100% my own. ✨ My skin type and age: 35 years. Combination with a bit of rough texture and visible pores, slight redness. My skin tolerates quite a lot and rarely gets irritated by products. ✨ Packaging: I love the packaging with the little pipette to get the product out. So easy to get the amount you actually need. The look of the bottle is simple and nice. ✨ The product: It is very economical and a bit runny in consistency but just right. Easy to apply with a cotton pad but also with hands. Fragrance-free, which is a big plus. ✨ Results: I don't experience any wow effect right away. I think my skin requires something stronger for exfoliation, but I believe the skin tone has become more even and that it has at least gotten a little glow. My small pimples are still there, but I think I need to use the product longer to see a more visible result. But it is really lovely to use both morning and night as it is so mild for me. #lykoinflutester #mariobadescu

  WOW

  I had the honor of trying some products from Mario Badescu, which is a relatively new brand for me! One of these products was this toner and wow!! I am totally hooked. To start describing my skin, I would say that I am pretty normal in skin type and can occasionally get a few pimples. To start describing the bottle, I really like it! I like the cap and how you pour out a little dropper to dose the product, I thought it made it easy to distribute the product evenly without getting too much product at once (which really isn’t needed). As for the product, I really like the consistency, it’s a bit thicker which means you don’t need much product at all, which makes the bottle last a long time! I also think it smells really good. The product leaves your skin INCREDIBLY hydrated and you get a really nice glow. The skin feels so soft and hydrated after use and I LOVE it 🥰 This has become a new favorite in my bathroom cabinet. As a final result, I can only say that I love this product! If you’re looking for glow and moisture, this is absolutely incredible. I will definitely continue to buy this as my skin has really loved this product. #LYKOINFLUTESTER #MARIOBADESCU

  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
