Paula's Choice - Skin Recovery Enriched Calming Toner - Toner

I have tried so many toners and none have come close to this product. This is an amazing toner that calms redness, hydrates skin, and makes your skin look and feel good. Out of all Paula’s choice toners this is the one that’s compatible with my skin. I have combination skin and some redness that is sensitive as well. This toner calms my skin and doesn’t aggravate it like other products do. It’s a wonderful product. Hope you guys give this a try.

I love this toner. I cannot live without this toner. I am even subscribed to have it auto replenished. I have dry, sensitive, dull, acne-prone skin, and this is the only toner — maybe even the only product period — that has really made a significant difference. It’s an interesting thin, milky consistency that makes your skin feel so smooth and so hydrated. This saved me when I damaged my skin barrier from trying too many actives. Since simplifying my routine to a good cleanser, this toner, moisturizer, and sunscreen during the day, my skin has never looked better!

Best toner for dry and sensitive skin

This toner and the skin recovery serum have both hands down saved my dry skin. It's a milky toner that leaves skin super soft after cleansing, and adds a layer of hydration that now after a year of using it, I can tell the difference when I don't. My skin does not get along with all skin recovery products, the moisturisers are irritating it unfortunately, but the toner soothes any irritation.Milky toners are trending now like the Laneige one but if you compare the formula, you will see that the Laneige one has a very basic ingredient list where as this one is full of good things for your skin. If you struggle with dry skin and/or sensitive skin, get it!

I had developed PD on my nose from over exfoliation and using a prescription medication. I went back to basics with hydration. This was amazing and calmed my PD down too. I use this first thing after cleansing morning and night and my skin is so hydrated and smooth I'll never be without it. I just put in my palms and apply straight to my face instead of cotton wool and it keeps my hands soft too. Have two in my stash already I just love it. Great product. Hi Kathleen. Thanks for your wonderful review. So happy to hear that our Skin Recovery Toner has helped your skin improve! If you have dry skin, I hope you are using the other products from the Skin Recovery range, especially the cleanser, daytime SPF moisturiser and night time moisturiser for further hydration. ... MoreI had developed PD on my nose from over exfoliation and using a prescription medication.

I used to think toners were unecessary

Online, I often read about how unnecessary toners are, even from dermatologists.I thought this might be the case too, as I tried toners and found them pleasant, but they didn't make a huge difference in my skin.Then, I read about layering and gave it a try. Instead of using one layer of the toner, I would allow the first to dry down a bit, add another layer, and repeat until I used 3 - 5 layers. This works so well for my dehydrated skin. Even before I put on my moisturizer, my skin was silky, plump, and glowing! If you have very dry or dehydrated skin, I highly recommend that you try layering a toner, it's now an irreplaceable part of my morning routine! I use my fingers rather than cotton as to not waste the product.

I've been using the PC ra...

I've been using the PC range, inclusive of the Resist Anti-Aging Toner, for many years, and have always been delighted with all the products. I cannot imagine my skincare routine without a toner now, and so, when the Resist A-A toner was out of stock recently, I ordered the Skin Recovery Toner instead. I'm so glad I did because it works even better for my skin. It feels beautifully silky and moisturising when applied, and I can definitely see and feel an additional improvement in my skin's hydration levels when using this toner. I'll be purchasing this in future and I fully recommend this toner to PC customers. Customer Care: Hi Fiona. Thank you for taking the time to leave your review of our Skin Recovery Toner.

Saved my skin!

I started to get small red bumps around my mouth that wouldn't go away for over 2 months. I have been using a low dosage prescription of tretinoin every night and then started using the PC 2% BHA exfoliant in the AM. Needless to say, I discovered that my current routine agitated my skin causing red bumps and irritation around my mouth. I bought this product hoping it would do something to help my skin. and OMG this product is AMAZING! Hydrates my skin and leaves my skin feeling healthy and moisturized.After 1 month of daily usage the bumps around my face disappeared. Along with this product and scaling back on my BHA and tretinoin usage (which I still do but in less frequency) my skin has totally transformed. I still use the Calming Toner on the daily and doesn't ... MoreI started to get small red bumps around my mouth that wouldn't go away for over 2 months.

The Toner for People Who Can't Handle Toners

If you're used to toners feeling astringent and drying, and you don't like that feeling, this toner is for you. It's unlike anything I used to think of when I heard the word "toner." The texture is almost milky-you have to shake the bottle before applying-and although I can't tell you what it actually does for my skin, I really love the way it feels going on, and I can't imagine skipping this step of my routine. I love the entire SKIN RECOVERY line for my normal to dry, sensitive skin with rosacea.

The most amazing toner I’ve ever used!

I started using this product during the beginning of the pandemic, I had just cured my face from fungal acne and as a result was now left with redness, dryness & scars. I was desperate at this point & tried everything, finally I bought this toner and within a night I noticed my face was… healing. I couldn’t believe it, my face was no longer angry looking. This toner truly lives up to its description and more. I no longer have any acne, and my scars are faded but this product will forever be my everyday staple. Thank you Paula’s Choice!
