Lush Tea Tree Water

One night, to my horror, I had used all of my Evian toner and had to revert back to using my clean and clear toner, which was a painful experience and one I never want to re-live.

I decided that my Evian toner was not living up to it's previous specifications, as my skin looked dull, blotchy.. Well, let's just say I looked better.

I had previously purchased a cleanser from Lush which I thought was great, so I thought why not buy a toner, then my skin may be perfect. So turning on my laptop and going on to the Lush website, I had a look at all the toners available. The one that stood out to me was Lush tea tree water. Due to the fact it's for oily, blemish prone skin, of which I am unfortunately prone to having.

I decided the next time I was in town, when I was supposed to be in lecture's, but we won't talk about that, I went to the Lush shop and browsed the shelves for this toner, which was very easy to find, this is because the bottle is massive 250g to be exact, and costing £4.25.

On getting back home I used it that night after my usual cleansing ritual. The first thing I noticed is that it didn't sting at all. It just felt soothing and refreshing. I went to bed that night with what seemed like glowing skin.

The next day was the big test. The one thing I hate about being a man, shaving on a daily basis, due to the razor burn, the dry skin.. not nice as you can imagine.

Anyway, after a shower and a shave, and applying the toner to my face, with gritted teeth, nothing happened; not even a flinch. To be honest, it was more of an ahhhhhh sensation as my razor burn was soothed and the redness began to disappear.

I have now been using the toner for about 4 months, and I have just purchased my second bottle, as I basically can not be without it.

The bottle itself is black and uses a spray action, which is quite unusual for a toner, but good all the same, as it means it doesn't go everywhere. You can also spray it directly onto your face (close your eyes first) and it instantly refreshes your skin. I do this throughout the day sometimes, but generally, I just apply it using cotton wool.

Overall, I think this product is great! It keeps my skin clear, smooth and soft, and I've said goodbye to razor burn. It's quite cheap considering you get so much, and the bottle, using it every day, had lasted me almost four months. A bargain!!

This Lush Tea Tree Water impresses me a lot that it is made of all natural ingredients (which means no alcohol to dry the skin out!) It feel so refreshing when applied to skin (due to grapefruit I think) it also prevents spots (great for combination/oily teenager skin, like mine!) Although it doesn't make exaggerated promise (not that that is a bad thing!) and at 4 pounds for 250g it is brilliant value-for-money!
