Rose

Trader Joes is one of my favorite groceries store.

Their beauty section while small has a little bit of everything, their argan oil is one of the best qualities I’ve tried.

I decided to try their Rose Water Facial Toner to see if its any good and can compare to my current favorite one HERE.

The Claims

Equal parts hydrating and refreshing, Trader Joe’s Rose Water Facial Toner is formulated with real Damask rose water and Damask rose oil (to bedew and moisturize), witch hazel (to balance and tone), and a bit of Quillaja Saponaria (soapbark) extract (to soften and condition). Best of all, it smells exactly like a fresh, blooming rose—so you’ll actually smell the roses while you’re taking a moment to stop, relax, and… smell the roses.

Mist Rose Water Facial Toner onto your beautiful face after cleansing (give TJ’s Facial Cleansing Oil a try) or as needed throughout the day for a quick refresher. Pack a bottle in your purse, gym bag, or carry-on for on-the-go toning and/or in-the-air hydrating. The formula is so mild and gentle that there is really no such thing as “too much Toner”—so feel free to spritz this soothingly-scented spray anytime you need a moment of calm.

Other rose water facial toners that contain actual rose water and not just rose fragrance sell for anywhere from $10.95 all the way on up to $40(!) elsewhere. We, however, are selling each four-ounce spray bottle of Trader Joe’s Rose Water Facial Toner for a cool, refreshing $3.99. You’ll find it in our health and beauty section.


DIRECTIONS FOR USE:
Mist onto face after cleansing or as needed throughout the day for a quick refresher. For external use only. Keep out of reach of children. Discontinue use if irritation occurs. Avoid contact with eyes. In case of eye contact, rinse immediately with water. Use only as directed.

My Review

A $3.99 toner with real rose water and oils is hard to beat, so I was very excited to give it a try.

The first days of trial I used it in place of my toner, sometimes with a cotton ball, other days spraying directly on my skin.

The first impression was how strong the smell of roses was, I neither love or hate it but on some days, I don’t want to feel like I am spraying perfume on my face.

My skin felt a little tight but refreshed; the smell does linger for a while so if you are sensitive to fragrances I would not recommend it.

After trying it for five consecutive days, I had to go back to my current favorite toner.

Trader Joes Rose Water Facial Toner was not hydrating enough even for my combination skin. Overall this is a great option to have in your gym bag for a quick freshen up.
