skin care week: glowoasis milkdew pH balancing milk toner

It is the last skin care week post here on the creation of beauty is art. Though makeup is always my preference (I love the colours, glitter, and drama)...it is important to focus on the skin underneath the makeup as well. So, since my friend gifted me a product from glowoasis, it only made sense to put it to good use. The Milkdew pH Balancing Moisture Milk Toner was intriguing to me right away. I really love the Kylie Skin Milk Toner and was open to trying something similar from another brand. Curious about this skin care product? Here is everything you need to know about the toner.

In terms of the packaging, this feels really luxurious. The glowoasis Milkdew pH Balancing Milk Toner comes in a weighty glass container with a screw off cap. It is luxe but easy to use. All you need to do is apply a bit of toner onto a cotton pad and apply it to dry skin. Since I love quick and easy skin care items, this definitely checks off all the boxes. According to the brand, the toner is a "toner-meets-moisturizer" that has apricot kernel oil, soybean extract, and cica extract. It is supposed to revitalize dull and dehydrated skin - and improve skin texture and tone as well. The toner also has vegan probiotics and prickly pear extract. Not to mention no artificial colors. This is a vegan product and a clean beauty product that is meant to leave the skin looking dewy. 

The glowoasis Milkdew pH Balancing Milk Toner works well. It definitely makes my skin feel hydrated and pampered. It doesn't irritate my skin and applies easily. However, there is the scent to consider. To me, it has kind of an unpleasant and strong odor. Though I am committed to using the entire bottle, it is not a scent that is particularly enjoyable. It lingers and is somewhat overpowering. I love that this is a clean beauty product, that it is vegan, and that it is both a moisturizer and toner. There is a lot to enjoy! That being said, the scent is not ideal, and I don't find this toner works any better than my Kylie Skin Milk Toner. In future, I will stick to the Kylie Skin version. It is a comparable price ($29 CDN versus the $34 for glowoasis) and works.
