Biotique Bio Cucumber Pore Tightening Toner – Review

Hey pretty faces! 😀

It’s almost evening now and I’m sitting surfing around the internet on my laptop and of course, checking out my blog’s stats.

Like we all know toner is an essential part of the CTM routine. Its job is to maintain the pH levels of our skin. After using Gulabari rose water, it was time for a change.

I recently bought Biotique Bio Cucumber Pore Tightening Toner with Himalayan Waters. Cucumber is an astringent, best suited for oily and combination skin.

My review will be on this today!

Description:
This refreshing, pore-tightening toner brings the complexion into perfect pH balance and helps keep skin in its purest state.

How to use:
Apply to cotton pads or washcloth and gently wipe over cleansed face and neck, morning and evening.

The best toners for oily skin are cucumber, green tea, tea tree, etc. from which cucumber is an astringent which is stronger than a toner. A cucumber toner is beneficial for oily skin.

Biotique Bio Cucumber Pore Tightening Toner comes packed in cardboard. This toner comes in a usual translucent Biotique cylindrical bottle with a dark green screw cap. Its quantity is visible from the bottle. There’s a hole in the stopper to dispense the toner.

When I took out the toner on a cotton pad, it was a green-colored liquid that I found artificial. It smelled quite strong. I guess because of the natural herbs. It smells like a wild bitter berry. I ignored the smell and applied it.

While applying, it feels a bit soapy and sticky but that was fine for me as long as it will control oil on my face. It stings eyes so be careful.

After applying, I can see a flush of smoothness on my face. My face brightens up and my pores become barely visible. It claimed to be a pore tightening toner but it didn’t permanently reduce pores.

Although, I felt a glow on my face. Might be because of the cucumber that got along with my oily skin pretty well. It also cleansed out dirt on my face which a cleanser didn’t do effectively.

This toner controls oil for a few hours and after that, my skin becomes oily again. Dry-skinned ladies stay away from it. After using it regularly, my skin texture has become even and my face looks a lot cleaner.

So far I’m happy with it and buying this toner was the right choice for me.

Pros:
● Affordable toner and the quantity is also adequate.
● Removes dirt away from the face.
● It made my skin’s texture fine and even.
● Preservative-free: which means no parabens and other harmful chemicals.
● Made from natural ingredients like Cucumber, Peppermint oil, Dhania, Maju, phal and Daru haldi.
● Reduces pores, but temporarily.

Cons:
● The Color and smell seem strong and artificial.
● Controls oil for a shorter period of time.

I love using this toner on my oily and acne prone skin as it makes it matte and refreshed! Are you going to give Biotique Bio Cucumber Pore Tightening Toner a try? Let me know in the comments! 🙂
