Excellent part of skin care routine
I bought this product about 5 months ago from an actual brick and mortar ELF store (I was so excited there was an actual store). I had been looking for something gentle to use to help tone my face, reduce some redness I have and minimize my pores. I hadn't really used any other toners before, unless you count astringent, and I wasn't really sold. When the sales person told me there was both green tea and witch hazel in it, I decided to give it a try.
I absolutely love this product, I think it does everything it's supposed to and it's a nice light formula which works well in addition to the rest of my skin care routine. I do not use it to remove makeup, I use it every night as a secondary step after I have washed my face in the shower. I have to say, I can really see the results!! My skin looks healthier, the pores are smaller, I like the smell and I haven't had any allergic reactions. I've even had compliments on how much better skin has looked! I will put it on at night and by the morning I will have reduced acne (or no acne) and definitely smaller pores.
In response to some other reviews, I will say it does have a slightly sticky texture when it goes on, but it dries very quickly and does not leave any residue. I normally am about to go to bed once I put it on and I have never felt like its smeared off on my pillow or anything.
I also think this a great value for the product because it lasts a long time. I've been using it every night for about 5 months on my cheeks and recently on my forehead and I think I've only went through about half the stick. I highly recommend this product!

Love this toner balm!
I am 64 years old, and have tried a LOT of toners in many forms from many companies. Then, I bought this a few months ago. OMG! I've fallen in love! I use this under my moisturizer or alone, and have seen a difference in my large pores and complexion. My pores look less like a potholed road and more smooth, and the tone of my complexion is healthier looking, less sallow. I focus on the "T" area of my face, especially since I have combination skin. I also put it around my eyes and have seen a difference in the saggy-baggy skin there. (Use caution to not get it into your eyes!)
I run the stick quickly around the area, then spread/even it with my fingers. Great scent, very herbal. No sting, no redness. LOVE it!!

REFINED/VISIBLY SHRUNK MY PORES IN 1 USE
I have normal to dry skin and put a lot of effort to maintain "flawless" skin. However, either the weather or something I had been doing had made the pores on my nose become more noticeable and it annoyed me. Stopped by the E.L.F store and picked this up as an extra step to my toner-moisturizer routine and 1 use really shrunk/closed them up. I've been using it in the morning and at night since!
I love how fresh and watery the balm is even tho it's a solid. It fills in your pores and refines them without clogging them-which was my possible concern about it being a solid toner. Just wish it smelled a little better, though over time it got a less glue-y smell and started to smell fresher. Also almost done with it after only 2 months, and wish it was available at other retailers, target etc.
Still love it tho! Def. going to repurchase.

It works!
I bought this 3 weeks ago and I personally think that is a great product, I honestly don’t like the smell but once is applied to the face doesn’t smell at all, it does minimize the pores and gives a smooth appearance, i really liked this product and I would definitely buy it again!!

Okay...
I bought this a few weeks ago and I don’t use it as often as I thought I would. It doesn’t quite minimize the look of my pores but it does cool my skin and feel nice.

It does what it’s supposed to!
I purchased this balm about 4-5 months ago hoping to have a quick and easy way of helping with some larger pore areas. I find that it actually does a good job of lessening the appearance of pores, but there are a few cons for me. First, I don’t feel like it could be a replacement for my toner routine, as I use toner as a way to get any excess makeup off my skin after cleansing. I wouldn’t use this all over my face, as it does have a bit of a tacky texture, so I only use it in certain areas, and it does not remove excess makeup like my liquid toner, so it’s really just an extra step. Second, because I don’t use a lot at a time the product does last, BUT I feel like it’s on the verge of going bad already after just a few months. It’s starting to have a stronger scent than it did when I first opened it, and it’s developing a crusty, waxy white coating around the outside of the stick. It’s to the point where I don’t really want to use it on my Facebook anymore, and I’ll probably throw the rest away.
Overall, it does feel nice and smell nice (for the first few months) and it does what it’s supposed to do, but unless you go through this in like 3 months, you will have wasted product.

Dissapointed
I had high expectations for this product :( it doesn’t do anything and isn’t even really a “balm” it’s more on the wet side so it doesn’t get into the pores it just sits on top of your skin. It also smells weird

Caused breakouts
It is about half the bottle. Didn't suit me. Caused breakouts.

Should I use this just like I would use a regular toner(swipe it on and wipe it off), or is it meant to stay on my face like a primer?
This product should be left on for best results. Please apply after cleansing.

Which skin type is best for this product? Is it considered a primer??
I personally don’t feel like this replaces a liquid toner, as it does not help to remove any leftover makeup residue like liquid toners do. It’s not a primer, but it does play well with foundation over it to help blur pores!

This product is recomended for super oily skin?
Witch Hazel and Green Tea are both active ingredients which help with oiliness. For super oily skin you may wish to use in conjunction with another product such as our Oil Control Blotting Powder
