I wanted to revisit a product I briefly reviewed last
year (link). You all know my favourite
skincare brand is Tropic Pure Plant Skincare. This is a brand I have followed for many years, before I started blogging. Last year facial toner was not part of my beauty routine but in recent
months I can see the benefits for my skin.
You will have notice I have become fickle with toners, I haven't been repurchasing the same one. After finishing up everything I already owned I decided
to go back to Tropic Vitamin Toner.
Tropic products are vegan approved, BUAV approved plus free from alcohol, parabens, mineral oils, petrochemicals and synthetic fragrances. The ingredients for the Vitamin Toner are Aloe Vera Juice, Rose Water, Orange Blossom Water, Vegetable Glycerin, Vitamin C, Cucumber Extract, Pomegranate Extract, Cranberry Extract, White Tea Extract, Gentle Preservative System (phenoxyethanol, ethylhexylglycerin extract).
The range has had another makeover. The outer box lists the ingredients
in English and below this the INCI version. I have not seen this before normally INCI ingredients are listed with English in brackets.
The bottle has changed to a spray top which to be honest is a
bit of a love/hate for me. Spritzing my
face is refreshing but I do like to saturate a cotton pad and sweep across my
face. Of course you can spray a cotton
pad but it’s not the same as pouring. It
takes a little longer to soak the pad but I guess using less cotton pads is better for the environment (swings & roundabouts).
The UK is finally having the heat wave we have longed for and my tip for surviving the heat is to keep toner in the fridge. Your toner will be nice and chilled and should help cool you down.
Since my last review Tropic have made slight changes to the ingredients of their toner, it now contains rose water. I know many people love the fragrance of rose but it is not one of my favourite scents so I was initially disappointed that the toner had changed. However I will say that this particular rose fragrance is light and not artificial so I tolerate it.

Overall, despite the fragrance I still like how the toner
feels on my skin. It refreshes without feeling dry or tight. The toner also helps remove the
last traces of makeup after cleansing. You can purchase direct
from Tropic website or
Feelunique.com. A 120ml bottle costs £11.95, not the cheapest but in my mind certainly
worth the money.
