I used the Urban ReLeaf Pore Shrinking Toner! with Lavender & Dead Sea Salt, Smooth Tight Skin weeks and right up to leading to my wedding. My pores on my nose are big and I did not want my makeup to have dots in my nose area. The pore shirking toner worked well because I did not notice any of those dots on my nose once my makeup was done. Now that the wedding is over I am starting to see those pores again and now I'm going to start using the pore toner again to control it.

I am confused by a couple of the reviews on this product that mention that it doesn’t do a good job “cleaning”… I have never used toner to ‘clean’ my skin - I use it AFTER washing (which is also what the instructions say) so that is a bit confusing. I was a little concerned that it would have a very drying effect because of the sea salt but I was pleasantly surprised that that was not the case. I just apply it and let it dry and my skin felt noticeably tighter but not dried out. I typically use toner along the sides of my nose and my forehead (which tend to be the oiliest areas). The bottle is fairly small but not much is required (unless you ARE using it to actually clean your skin!). I appreciate the fact that this product is from a small business as well. The scent is very nice - not overly strong but definitely pleasant. If you do use a moisturizer you should apply the toner first and allow it to dry and then use the moisturizer.

Resident Toner Snob here. I wanted to love this toner. I really did. I'm all about small business and clean beauty. However, I require my toners to clean as well as they feel, and this one fell far short in that area. It feels great, and it does tighten up my skin a little bit, but there was no pore shrinkage and very little oil removal/cleaning power to it, so I can't in good faith recommend it, at least not if you're looking for a toner that cleanses as well as it tones. I do have other products from this brand though, and I've found those to be of good quality, so please don't let it put you off from the brand!

I appreciate the fact that this company makes its products in small batches so that the products are fresh and don't require preservatives as an added ingredient like most mass-production type companies, and I appreciate a small American family-owned business that uses natural ingredients. That said, you get a rather small bottle of this toner for the price that is paid. I found that the toner smelled nice, cleared the residual soap, makeup, and lotion off my face after washing, and left my face feeling good. The product description states that it could also be used as a mouth rinse. I did not try that, but I suspect it would be similar to a salt gargle but with a lavender flavor. I am not a fan of lavender tea either, so I will leave that testing for someone else. Regarding the pore shrinking... if only... NOTHING will shrink your pores... sorry.
