Toners, Essences & First Serums

Unlike in Western beauty, in Asian skincare, toners are not highly astringent but used for calming, hydrating and prepping the skin for later layers of skincare. This collection also includes "first serums", or serums that are light enough to serve the purpose of an Asian skincare toner, and the Sabbatical Beauty beauty waters, which add a final cleanse element.

We also have one "acid toner," or an exfoliation-driven toners that are generally composed of Alpha-Hydroxy & Beta-Hydroxy Acids and more! Acid toners are more traditionally found in Western beauty and work as low level chemical peels. Our "acid toners" is the Botanical Acid Toner.
