Ok honestly, this toner temporarily stains my sink BUT it IS made of real tea so of course that's to be expected. I love the thin consistency of this toner. It's very watery and it layers well in a 10 step skin routine. Its gentle enough for my sensitive skin and pairs well with my tretinoin. Most importantly, it keeps oil production under control so that my t-zone isn't a grease slick all day. I love this toner, and I will continue to repurchase.
