Universal All skin types
To the degree possible, all our formulations are constructed to maximize benefits to the skin’s infrastructure, maintain yin-yang (acid-base, moisture-movement) balance. Universal formulas do all this and more. They can be used alone as the basis for a daily skin care routine, and layered with other products as the need arises. The skin is dynamic, alive, always changing. We take this into account.

Ideally balanced and mild, this hydrating and calming toner from our Universal line is perfectly suited to all skin types.

Use after cleansing to delivery an extra layer of purifying hydration before applying any other products.
