Tona Michelle Cosmetics Alpha Hydroxy Wash Review:
A deep cleansing, fresh wash that contains glycolic acid, olive oil castile, rose hip seed oil, seaweed extract, and oil of kumquat. This Alpha Hydroxy Facial Cleanser visibly lifts oil, dirt, and dead cells to reveal a healthier, brighter-looking complexion.

This face wash did a fantastic job at getting my skin clean. I felt it really cleaned out every pore on my face, without irritating it. My skin did feel a little dry after using it, but I always follow up with the rest of my skincare (which includes using a moisturizer) so that's not a big deal to me. Overall, a nice fash wash for those with problem skin or anyone who wants to really clean their face.

Tona Michelle Cosmetics Herbal Astringent Review:
This toner is made with a unique blend of eleven herbs in purified water. Cleans and calms irritated skin with the soothing properties of hyaluronic acid and witch hazel. For all skin types.

Not everyone uses a toner, but I love to use them - especially in the spring and summer, when a toner can make all the difference in how my skin feels and acts. This was a nice, gentle toner; it felt refreshing and nice on my skin. I felt it was a nice toner, although I felt it was a bit pricey - at least compared to the $4 Olay toner I like to use. However, if you compare it to my Perricone acne toner, the Tona Michelle Cosmetics Herbal Astringent is a great price! It's all relative to what you like to spend on toner, and the good thing is toner seems to last a long time, so the investment is usually well worth it!




Tona Michelle Cosmetics
Oil-Less Moisturizer

My Rating: 5 out of 5 Kisses!

Tona Michelle Cosmetics Oil-Less Moisturizer Review:
A nutrient rich gel made with seaweed extract, hyaluronic acid, and purified water. This moisturizer stimulates new cell growth and restores moisture. Best for those with oily skin.

I have oily skin, so this moisturizer is perfect for me! The gel is very light weight and absorbs quickly. I also liked that I couldn't detect any scent, which is nice for someone like me who is sensitive to smells. If you have oily skin then you'll love how light this moisturizer is, while still giving your skin enough moisture. It would be a great option in the spring and summer, when temps are higher. If I do use a moisturizer in the morning in the summer, it's always a very lightweight, gel moisturizer. This is one I'd use!

If you don't have oily skin, but have combination normal/oily or even dry/oily skin, you may still like this as a light moisturizer option - great for summer! If you have dry skin, you'll want to skip this moisturizer.
