Coxir - skincadenza review for Vita C Bright Toner

Thank you to Picky and Coxir for giving me the chance to try this product in exchange for my honest review! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Price: $17 for 150ml Texture: This has a watery but viscous texture that is suitable for all skin types Usage: I dispensed a couple of drops directly onto my hands and used it daily AM and PM after cleansing. Packaging: A translucent, plastic bottle with a screw on black cap and a small nozzle as the opening. Claims: Hydrates, soothes, and brightens the skin to help with hyperpigmentation Alcohol/EOs/Colors/Fragrance: No/No/No/Yes The toner has some great ingredients such as Niacinamide, a variety of hydrators and soothers, extracts from Ginseng, acai, aloe vera, etc. The texture is much lighter than the Black Snail toner from the brand and the fragrance is much milder to the point of being negligible. Even though it contains ascorbic acid, the percentage is so low that I used it with retinol and AHA/BHA products without any issues. Keep in mind though that I have pretty resilient skin so don't jump into this! The low percentage of Vitamin C and lack of any other brightening actives also means that it doesn't pack the brightening punch that it ideally should considering it's targeting hyperpigmentation. I find Niacinamide to be a good barrier repairing ingredient at a reasonable percentage, but I haven't found it to be very helpful with hyperpigmentation. So while this can be a good barrier helping, hydrating toner, do not expect much in terms of brightening.
