Breeze on a Sea Air Toner ($13.95 Canadian)
This is the first product that I've used from England-based skincare company Lush, and now I want to try more! I would not place Lush's Breeze on a Sea Air Toner in the same step of my skincare regimen as I would more traditional toners - those I would normally put on a cotton pad and sweep across my face after cleansing and before moisturizing. I see this product as more of a facial mist, and I want to use it all the time! The number one ingredient in this wonderful toner is spring water, followed next by "fresh Scottish sea water," thus the name! Other skin-soothing ingredients include aloe vera gel, violet leaf absolute, and melissa absolutes. The bottle comes with a spray top, which fits my theory perfectly, although the directions state to put on a cotton square and sweep across the face. This great-smelling spray can be used as an ultra-moisturizing spritz for the face any time your skin is feeling irritated or dry and shriveled up. It brings my face "back to life" every time I spray it on, in fact, I've taken to carrying it in my bag for mid-day hydration breaks!
