This product is great for making facial packs. It's only been a number of days since I've been using it, but it has softened my skin to a degree I have not seen in any other toner. The brightening effect will need some time to see, however, but I think my complexion has been looking better than usual. It is a enormous 500ml bottle that will last for ages, too. The smell is strongly reminiscent of rubbing alcohol, so those who have dry skin or are in a really cold area might not benefit too much from it, but overall, the product is very nice!
