Thoughts | The cleanser smelt super good, I love lavender! It was very watery like texture which wasn’t my favorite, I felt like I would end up wasting a decent amount of the product. It was also very gentle, left my face feeling refreshed. I do have oily skin, so it never felt like a deep clean which I prefer, but it did feel fresh.

Thoughts | I was surprised about how thin the consistency was. It wasn't easy to apply because it was so runny, but that is probably because it isn't full of artificial thickeners or gels. It felt so light and natural. After I used it, my combo skin felt very balanced, like it cut through the oil on the my forehead and chin, but it didn't dry out my cheeks.

Thoughts | Really strong smell, but I enjoyed it. It didn't removed my (non-waterproof) eyeliner, but besides that, worked great!

Thoughts | I did love the rose-y scent of this toner, but I didn't notice anything notable about the results. However, I don't know if this is the kind of product where you SEE the results, it's more about the science-y side of keeping your skin happy and balanced?

Thoughts | Again, I loved the smell, but the biggest downfall for me was overall strength. I am used to seeing the dirt come off my face when I tone, and even though it felt clean, it didn’t feel like what I needed (even though I am sure gentle might be better)

Thoughts | Doesn't smell as much like alcohol like other toners I've used. The smell isn't my favorite, but I loved how my skin felt right and clean afterwards. My skin looked really red and irritated for about 10 minutes after using, but then it cleared right up! Loved it!

Thoughts | This one was interesting to me. I usually use a very low key moisturizer so this one wasn’t too different, just a slightly more liquid consistency. It felt more like cleansing milk versus a mosterizer. But for my face it did the job!

Thoughts | The scent and feel of this reminded me of the oatmeal baths that my mom would give me when I was little. It has that lavender-y oat-y scent that is so calming and feels so hydrating

Thoughts | I'm not a lavender fan, so this started poorly off the bat. I loved the consistency and how lightweight the product was. My skin felt greasy rather than hydrated, BUT my skin never dried out throughout the day, so not the worst. I would maybe use it on days I didn't need to wear make up.
The verdict!
Fine Herbal Cleanser. Great for combination and sensitive skin, not strong enough for oily skin types.
Pure Complexion Tonic. Awesome for sensitive skin, gentle on the combination skin, not aggressive enough for oily.
Nourishing Lavender Milk. More of a nighttime routine moisturizer, doesn't absorb too quickly. Strong Lavender scent.
