What it is
Dermalogica Multi-Active Toner is a light facial mist intended to hydrate and refresh skin after cleansing or during the day. The brand recommends it for all skin types and describes it as a way to prep skin before moisturizer.
Key ingredients
- Moisture-binding humectants: Dermalogica says these help condition skin and prepare it for moisturizer.
- Arnica, balm mint, and lavender: The brand describes these botanicals as refreshing ingredients.
How to use
After cleansing, spray over the face and neck with eyes closed. Follow with serum or moisturizer; Dermalogica also says the mist can be used throughout the day.
Who should be careful
The ingredient list includes lavender oil, lemon peel oil, bergamot fruit oil, citronella oil, and fragrance-associated components including limonene, linalool, citral, and geraniol. Dermalogica says it does not use artificial fragrance but notes that botanicals and essential oils may have a natural scent. The brand suggests testing a small area first if concerned about sensitivity. This is general product information, not medical advice.
