Absolutely Fabulous for Any Age - Not To Be Missed
Whether you have a 15-step skincare regime or are extremely low maintenance in your skincare routine, this is a product that is an essential component to a healthy, radiant complexion. I’ll admit, my skincare game became fairly extensive as I approached 40. Prior to that, I had a solid day and night routine using 4-5 products.
After 40, my skin required more effort with a focus on hydration, prevention of damage from sun, stress, lack of sleep, etc., barrier building, and aging gracefully. At 55, people often comment on how nice my skin is and some people think I’m still in my 40s.
I owe that to a fantastic arsenal of skincare products rather than procedures (plus water, solid nutrition, and at least 8 hours of sleep per night). Nothing wrong with getting Botox or fillers, but I’m rather frugal and would rather focus on daily maintenance to ensure my skin looks as good as possible regardless of my age.
This milky toner is as good - and actually better - than brands at much higher price points. It’s thick (in a good way), provides instant hydration, and keeps my skin glowing for hours. I use it in the morning as part of my AM skincare routine, as part of my skin prep prior to doing my makeup, and every night in my PM routine.
Some people use milky toner as a setting spray (mix equal parts toner and distilled water into a spray bottle and lightly mist your face once your makeup is complete). I prefer a setting spray that provides staying power rather than additional hydration, but I have sprayed this mixture on my face if I feel dry and my skin looks parched. It feels really nice on a hot day, especially if you keep the mister cool in the fridge.
I have tried adding drops to my foundation, which is a “viral” trend, but I find this product to be a bit too thick. A thinner consistency like the Byoma Milky Toner works better for me if I want to create a more dewy foundation. I find that using this Thayers product as part of my skin prep prior to foundation along with using a dewy, hydrating foundation is better for me.
I love that this bottle is huge, affordable, easily obtained from Amazon, and incredibly effective. It’s earned its spot in my holy grail products for life.
