Calming Rose Super Tonic 50ml

I did not rate this well when it was first introduced, as I had loved the previous version, but I can't live without it and would love to have a travel size. I am buying a sample but it may be too small.

I use this rose tonic as a deodorant/body spray and love the smell! It feels like such a luxury, especially coupled with the rose face moisturiser and body moisturiser :)

I love this tonic, I use it morning and night to freshen up my face before moisturising. It really reduces redness and has such a lovely light, rose-y smell. It is also great at removing any last traces of make-up that may be left.

I loved your previous Rose Tonic but this formulation doesn't smell nice and leaves my skin feeling tight and uncomfortable

Hi Gillian,
We're sorry to hear that you don't like the new Rose Tonic. It actually hasn't changed much, apart from the inclusion of a biodynamic calendula extract that should be even more soothing. It also has slightly more rose oil than before to give greater flexibility/economy of use, though that shouldn't adversely affect the aroma. There's nothing in the product that would be drying or tightening. It would be interesting to know what you're cleansing with. We would suggest perhaps spraying the tonic onto a damp cotton pad to apply or remove. The tightening may actually be the toning effect you are feeling (the rose helping to regenerate the skin). We would love to hear back from you so please keep in touch!

Whilst this product smells nice from the roses point of view and felt cooling and refreshing on the skin, I am left unsure if I am honest, I thought I could smell a strong smell of alcohol. although it is just residual from the tinctures to make the herbal actives for the product but, to me the smell seemed quite strong as I have a fairly sensitive nose. I always associate alcohol in products with stripping the skin. Being blemish prone, alot of brands contain alcohol in order to preserve their products and to help 'control' oily skin types when in actual fact with long term use can do more damage than good. Odylique does not 'add' any alcohol to their products and I am sure that with long term use, it would not cause the dryness or harsh effects like many other brands using synthetically produced alcohols. This product just wasn't for me but none the less still a good product for others to experience and shouldn't be put off by.

Thanks for your review. Just wanted to check that you are shaking the Tonic before use? You're quite right – and don't worry - the amount of alcohol (which is organic and not a synthetic alcohol) in the Tonic is a very small residual amount and would never be drying. Glad you like the smell of the roses and find it refreshing!

I have been only using this product for three days, the calming effect is wonderful. Love it. Highly recommended

What can I say this toner is perfection in a bottle. I have tried many rose waters and this beats them all. It is more pricey, but the ingredients justify it. I sometimes just spritz my face with it in the morning (if in a rush) and I am good to go, smells light & lovely providing moisture too. Fabulous.

I have been a fan of your old toner but since the introduction of this new formula, it become my all time favorite toner.
If it run out and I stopped using it for a few days, my skin miss it so much.
Nothing more refreshing and soothing than spraying this toner over my face after running/walking.
It also works to calm hustled mind too.
Just love it!

SOOTHES MY SKIN AFTER WASHING AND GENTLE RELAXES IT. EVEN USE IT SOMETIMES AS A PICK ME UP VERY REFRESHING

This toner calms my skin every time I have irritations or redness of any kind. It freshens skin in the morning and relaxes in the evening. Leaves no tightness of any kind and smells fantastic. Helps throughout the day to fight dry and damp skin. Perfect for winter, when central heating drains my face of moisture; and for summer, when in need of refreshment. A daily must-have!

I suffer from acne rosacea and was recommended to use this toner. It's brilliant for calming my skin and returning it to a more normal, less flushed look. It also smells divine!

This is a fantastic facial spritz which I have bought and used for the last few years, although I hvae not reviewed this until now. The spray is just right to mist the face and I use this after cleansing and then apply serum whilst the skin is still damp. This appears to work well for me. I also spritz throughout the day to revitalise my skin and to set make up after a blot and powder in the middle of the day. The spritz helps to give skin a dewy look and stop powder from looking cakey. I also love the rose smell which is comforting and relaxing and makes me feel better.
