Tea Toner is a uniquely effective toner with potent
antioxidant and hydrating benefits. It helps re-hydrate the face and restore
the skin’s natural acid mantle as well as balance the skin’s natural pH levels.
It also soothes irritated skin and gently prepares the skin for advanced
treatments with other products without stripping the skin of its precious
moisture balance. This formula tones and conditions with natural solvents and
astringents to dissolve residual oils and waxes and adds antioxidants, vitamins
and other extracts to soothe and maintain a viable, fresh surface to the face.
Quintessence® Green
Tea Toner is non-irritating even to the most
sensitive skin types and may be also applied directly after professional,
in-office chemical peels, Microdermabrasion or IPL treatments. It is also
excellent for every-day use. The product contains the phyto-effective natural
ingredients Aloe Vera and Cucumber Extract which
soothe irritated or inflamed skin and possess natural skin tightening
properties. It also contains Witch Hazel, a mild, natural
astringent and Glycerin for softening and moisturizing the
face. These ingredients work synergistically, providing optimal benefits in
balancing the skin and preparing it for skin care treatments.

the Green Tea Toner’s Key Ingredients work:
Directions

DID YOU KNOW:
Cucumber Extract (CUCUMIS SATIVUS):An extract
with skin firming properties and anti-inflammatory action has a refreshing,
soothing effect on skin. Cucumber Extract is also known for its emollient
properties. It contains high amounts of both amino and organic acids that are
beneficial to the skin’s acid mantle. Cucumber Extract removes impurities,
reduces oiliness and refines the appearance of pores, making it beneficial for
normal as well as oily or acne skin types. Cucumbers also have a long,
natural-medicinal history, reputedly used by Cleopatra to preserve her skin.
Traditionally, cucumber slices have also been used to remove dark circles from
the area underneath the eyes as well as reduce puffiness.
Aloe Vera: The virtues of the Aloe
Vera plant have been recorded by many great civilizations, from those of Persia
and Egypt in the Middle East, Greece and Italy in Europe, to India, Japan and
the Asian continent. Topically, it has been proven to counteract wrinkling of
the skin, scarring, etc. It is very beneficial on burned, sunburned and
environmentally exposed skin and also after laser treatments,
micro-dermabrasion or chemical peels. Scientific studies show that it
stimulates cellular regeneration and also has been shown to have astringent,
emollient, antifungal, antibacterial and antiviral properties.
Panax ginseng: Panax ginseng is one of
the most highly researched species of ginseng and has been an important herbal
remedy in traditional eastern medicine for thousands of years. Its benefits for
improving energy and vitality and enhancing the immune system have
scientifically documented in numerous published studies. Ginseng is referred to
as an adaptogen. The term “adaptogen” connotes an agent that purportedly
“increases resistance to physical, chemical, and biological stress and builds
up general vitality, including the physical and mental capacity for work.” It
is used in skincare to increase the skin's ability to tolerate physical
stresses that cause pre-mature aging, wrinkling, and dryness.
