Panthenol (5%) - Pro-vitamin B5 well-known for its hydrating, soothing and barrier strengthening ability. The 5% is a well-proven amount not commonly found in toner type products.
NMF - Short for Natural Moisturizing Factors, it denotes components naturally present in the skin helping to keep the epidermis (top layer of the skin) hydrated. Amino acids (in this formula coming from chopped up Rice Protein), Urea, PCA, sodium PCA, Lactic Acid and Diglycerin are all NMFs.
Allantoin - A classic skincare ingredient known for its skin soothing and skin protecting abilities, works in synergy with Panthenol.

This product received with bottle almost empty; package leaking. Informed company and a replacement sent to me. (They acknowledged this has happened with this product many times.) Replacement bottle mailed exactly same way and received the same way--almost empty. Customer service made excuses. Don't waste your time ordering. Turned off to this company. Will not order anything of their again.
Túto hmlu som dostala zadarmo k prvej objednávke, tak som sa potešila, že ju vyskúšam, lebo som na ňu čítala mnohé dobré recenzie a aj recenzenti na YouTube si ju pochvaľovali. Za mňa je to však taký meh produkt, celkovo je fajn, ale nejako mi v rutine nechýbal. Registrovala som, že pôvodne bol balený vo fľaštičke ako tonikum, ale ako reakcia na spätnú väzbu od zákazníkov bolo balenie vymenené sa toto nové s rozprašovačom. Nové balenie musím pochváliť, lebo celý produkt do poslednej kvapky bolo možné aplikovať pomocou rozprašovača, nič navyše v nádobke neostalo. Celkovo ale mne osobne balenie nevyhovovalo, lebo ak sa mi trošku z hmly dostalo do vlasov, ostal na nich zvláštny pocit, ich štruktúra bola akási zlepená, nehovoriac o tom, že zakaždým sa mi produkt dostal do okolia úst a očí, pričom v ústach zanechal nepríjemnú pachuť a oči mi dráždil a štípal v nich. Dopoužívala som ho takým spôsobom, že som si ho striekla do dlaní a aplikovala ako iné tonery, lebo napokon občas sa aj mne zišlo trošku viac hydratácie a nie je to zlý produkt. Suchej dehydratovanej pleti bude pravdepodobne veľmi vyhovovať ako ďalšia ľahká vrstva hydratácie, ale pre moju mastnejšiu pleť mi pripadal ako nadbytočný krok v rutine a zbytočná ďalšia zaťažujúca vrstva. Z tohto dôvodu ho neodporúčam mastnejšej a kombinovanej pleti, ktorej postačia na dostatočnú hydratáciu ďalšie kroky v rutine. Sama si ho nekúpim a ak mi v budúcnosti bude občas chýbať hydratácia, radšej si aplikujem 2 vrstvy Stress Less, ktoré je dosť ľahké a dosť rýchlo sa vstrebáva (ale o tom v príslušnej recenzii).
Ich verwende das Spray für zwischendurch, wenn ich das Gefühl habe, dass meine Haut etwas spannt. Somit eine off-label Anwendung, aber sehr empfehlenswert. Meine Haut (ich bin 55) sieht gleich besser aus und fühlt sich auch so an. Begleiter in meiner Handtasche.
I love this product because it gives me the right dose before I apply all my serums, allowing them to penetrate better into the skin, while adding a dose of hydration at the same time. And I love the price too!
I am very happy with this product and with all the other products that I purchased from Geek and Gorgeous! Thanks!
