Love it
In love with this milky toner! In just a short time I’ve already noticed improvement in my skin texture. It’s more even toned as well. Perfect for after cleansing!

Effective and fragrance-free!
I have fairly sensitive skin but have had no issues with this product. It has cleared up some large pores that have troubled me for years. It does make my skin a little red upon application, but that fades after a few minutes. I only use a few splashes on a cotton pad to apply over my face, neck and décolleté.

Not sure about the smell
It was my third bottle, then I got strucked with the rotten dairy like odor which I never experienced with previous bottles. I thought I got unlucky and picked the spoiled one, then bought another bottle becaue I could not bear with the smell, but new bottle also had the same issue. I bought at the 3rd one at the store and 4th one online. Its not pleasant to apply in my face while having to smell of rotting milk. Have they changed the formula and started smelling like this? Idk I will never buy this toner again

On my 2nd bottle
Currently on my second bottle of this milky toner and I love it. Its absorbs nicely into my dry skin and works as a great base for all my other skincare products. Leaves my skin nice and glowing even if worn alone under moisturizer. Will be repurchase again!

Gentle and effective
I love how gentle this product is! Its gentle enough to use in the same routine as retinol. My skin drinks this stuff right up! Smells like bread.

Feels nice!
Feels nice and hydrating. Hasn't broke me out. I would recommend it, but I also want to try out the Thayer's milky toner as well. Nothing to crazy.

I love The Ordinary products ❤️
I go to the dermatologist on top of using the ordinary products. Sometimes its not the product thats breaking you out, its what your consuming. When i saw this toner i was super excited. I bought it yesterday, used it this morning. Along with the beta moisturizer. My skin feels smooth and soft.

I love the toning step in a skincare routine
I have been enjoying this toner. I can't say its life changing but it I do feel clean and hydrated after using it. If you don't know what ferment means, then know it means "comes with funky smell". It's not overbearing but it is there.

Oily Skin Safe
Was 90% sure this was going to break me out considering it was a hydration toner, but it didn't. Does the absolute best at keeping your skin hydrated all day, especially if paired with Hyaluronic Acid. Exfoliates dare I say better than the Glycolic Acid Toner, I never seen so much dead skin just slide off with no irritation. Great product!

Broke out
This toner gave me the worst break out I've had in years within two days of using it (without any other changes to my skincare routine). Maybe i just have sensitive skin but id be cautious about this product if you have acne prone or sensitive skin.

So moisturizing and gentle
This toner is so gentle on skin making it perfect for sensitive skin. It smooths any bumps within about two weeks of use. Applies smoothly under makeup and feels so moisturizing. I used twice a day and noticed significant improvement in two weeks.

It'a A Keeper!
This is the first milky toner I've ever used and, while I don't have others to compare it to - I love how this toner has made my skin look and feel. Especially how it absorbs and absolutely leaves my face feeling quenched but not yucky. It just sinks into my skin and I love how soft it feels.

Wasn't for me
All the ingredients were sooo harsh for my skin, which is usually not sensitive at all. I broke out with a rash immediately and it dried my skin out so bad.

My holy grail for winter time dehydration
The Ulta rep recommended this product for my dry skin in the winter due to its softening and exfoliating properties. This has become my holy grail! Before finding this product I would pile on moisturizers and humectants but still have to deal with flaking skin, but no more since using this product! 10/10
