Then I Met You Birch Milk Refining Toner
Founded by esthetician and beauty entrepreneur, Charlotte Cho, Then I Met You abides by an attitude of thoughtfulness that transcends self-care. It's inspired by the Korean concept of 'jeong' - a deep feeling of empathy and affection that one can develop for people, places and things - to go deeper, to focus a little extra effort in the right places, and spark real change to your skin. Speaking of change... If you're up against visible pores, rough texture and an uneven tone, then allow us to introduce you to the Birch Milk Refining Toner: a milky exfoliating toner, crafted with a base of birch juice, squalane and glycerin, that gently brightens and refines your skin for a baby-soft, smooth finish.
The ultimate foil to dull, congested skin, Then I Met You's Birch Milk Refining Toner harnesses a cocktail of exfoliating and moisturising extracts to effectively smooth the look of fine lines, reveal a brighter tone and clarify your pores. We'll take ten, please!
Made with all skin types in mind, this milky toner is as fit for acid aficionados as it is for exfoliating beginners. With a base of over 70%(!) birch juice, squalane, glycerin and sodium hyaluronate, it's safe to say the conditioning ingredients easily balance out the exfoliating ones, so you can refine your skin without worrying about sensitizing it. It's powered by an optimal 1% blend of industry-adored AHAs (think: glycolic and lactic acid) as well as PHA gluconolactone to reveal a more even texture and luminous tone. Ensuring your skin looks dewy and supple, marshmallow root extract then hydrates and protects your skin as it eases inflammation. In short, consider this toner as proof that battling blemishes doesn't need to leave your skin feeling stripped!
Gentle for daily use. After cleansing, shake well and dispense Birch Milk Refining Toner into your hands and pat or press onto your face and neck. You can also use a cotton pad to gently swipe the toner onto the face and neck. Follow up with The Giving Essence (or essence and serum of choice) to hydrate and strengthen exfoliated skin. With any expected sun exposure, always protect your skin with sunscreen.
For beginners who don't regularly exfoliate, slowly incorporate the Birch Milk Refining Toner into your routine about 2-3x a week until your skin is acclimated.
For those accustomed to regular exfoliation with acids, alternate use with your other acid products (i.e. day vs. night or every other day) to prevent over-exfoliation and sensitization.
