''I am to be as soft as petals
open with vulnerability
without losing my thorns
To be a rose - both tender and dangerous''
Women love roses, because they are always associated with romance and love. Aside from the beautiful fragrance and vibrant colour, roses are also delicate and beautiful in every way. But do you know that rose water is one of the well known remedy for skin care? It can be used as natural facial toner because rose water helps to absorb excess oil from the skin without leaving a drying effect. Perfect to combat acne! Hence it was a pleasant surprise for me to receive Thayers Alcohol-free Rose Petal Witch Hazel with Aloe Vera Toner at my doorstep few weeks back, along with a handwritten New Year card and cute angpao packets. Thank you Natta Cosme! That is so lovely of you. :)
American beauty care veteran, century old brand - Thayers is well known for their wide range of toner. With more than 120 years of history, their longstanding commitment to making effective, natural remedies with high-quality ingredients has ensured Thayers' longevity. Look at the variety of toners that they have. No wonder they are known as the Toner Specialists!
The one that I am going to review is the first one - Rose Petal Alcohol-Free Witch Hazel with Aloe Vera Formula. Over 120 years ago, Rose Thayer discovered an all natural recipe for extra soft, youthful looking skin. As she aged, many would comment on how she looks 10 years younger than she was. Her secret formula of Rose Petal water was then shared with the world and made available.
When it comes to Witch Hazel (a very popular herb plant used to cure sores, bruises and swelling) a lot of the toners must have alcohol in it. This is what makes Thayers special. Guess what, it is alcohol free!
The flower power will make your skin bloom! With rose petal water, Vitamin E and Witch Hazel extract, it not only tightens the pores, soothes and softens the skin but moisturises and cleanses any impurities as well. The toner is alcohol-free, paraben-free, phtalate-free, fragrance-free and is hypoallergenic.
Love how the packaging is so simple and vintage-looking.
All the product details are listed clearly on the sticker. The sticker is interesting as we are actually reading from the back of the transparent bottle. I have never seen any product like this! The transparent plastic bottle is also good and easy for me to know the exact amount of my skin care product left in the bottle.
The bottle is huge and not travel-friendly, so if you wish to take it for travelling, it is recommended to transfer it into small bottles. But I love how a huge bottle of 355ml could last me a very long time! There is an easy access cap, but I would prefer spray bottles because I don't like using cotton pads heh.
However, the main reason that I love this product is definitely the light rosy scent. Love is literally in the air. The scent is not too overwhelming though.
I use the toner everyday after cleansing my face and before I apply my makeup. You can use it anytime throughout the day as a softening refresher, too. It feels very gentle on the skin as it is very watery and absorbed easily by the skin. My skin feels fresh and rejuvenate instantly!
If you wish to purchase, why not getting it from Natta Cosme? You can get it HERE at only RM45 (355ml) instead of the normal price of RM58 :D

DeleteI LOVE THIS STUFF. I use it at least twice a day. Because it is alcohol free, it doesn't dry out your skin but leaves it feeling clean and refreshed. I'm never going back to those harsh toners... source - http://deadseaproductstore.com
