I’ve said it so many times before: as much as I thoroughly understand the necessity of having a skincare routine, I will forever be undecided when it comes to toner – or at least, a little too lazy to use it. I swear I am very meticulous with the daily care of my skin, but I have gracefully skipped this step over the years with next to no worry. Well, that was until I tried H2O+ Beauty’s Hit The Matte Toner, and my ‘non-toner world’ came crashing down around me.

I remember the exact day the H2O+ Beauty Hit The Matte Toner forever changed the way I looked at my existing skincare routine. It was my birthday some months ago, and a friend of mine gave it to me as a gift.

Do you suffer from oily, congested and blemish prone skin? If you are like me and deal with these pesky skin issues, then you need this product in your life. The Hit The Matte Toner is a game changer; it’s not a traditional toning product as we know it, rather it is a skin treatment, purifier and toner all in one.

To get the best result from this product, use a cotton pad to apply the toner on your face and neck after cleansing to calm redness, reduce shine, shrink pores, and of course fight blemishes – all completely necessary for any oily skin girl. The toner is formulated for use all over your face and your neck, but you can also use it on other specific areas that need extra treatment. And, although this is technically a skincare product, I find out that it works wonderfully as a makeup primer to prep your skin for foundation and to keep the oils at bay throughout the day. Basically, it’s a win-win no matter how you choose to use it!

I must confess that I didn’t read the list of ingredients on the bottle before I tried it (I know I can’t be the only one!). I used it one night, and woke up with visibly clearer skin. To my surprise, this toner contains a great amount of natural ingredients like Ginger Root, a traditional herbal extract that remedies your skin’s condition, Bamboo Extract that contributes to reduction of excess oil, and Witch Hazel, an astringent that helps to reduce shine.

At just $18 for 6.7 Fl oz, the H2O+ Beauty Hit The Matte Toner is definitely a bang for your buck. Needless to say, I have already ordered my second bottle since I never want to be without it. This toner is just one of the many amazing products H2O+ Beauty has to offer – try some for yourself, and I have no doubt you’ll fall in love with my holy grail skincare line, too.
