Bought this toner to add it to my routine for cystic acne issues. My first step is to use a BHA cleanser to cleanse my skin of all the oils that clogged up my pores and I use the Anua azelaic acid 10% serum as an active. I'm really happy with this toner. The texture is slightly thicker than the regular watery toner, it glides onto the skin and it's really hydrating. Which is great combo for when you need to use a cleanser for oily skin. My skin has gradually cleared up and the acne seemed to heal quicker. This toner now has a definite place in my skincare routine now.
