Anyone tried Lush toner?

I finally bought Fresh Farmacy soap from Lush yesterday, and just as I was about to pay the clerk asked if I used toner as well, I quickly said I'd pass because I'd already spent too much money and was running out of shopping time...but now that I've looked it up on the website I'm really wishing I would have bought some of that toner! The one I'm looking at specifically is the Tea Tree Water Toner (http://www.lush.ca/shop/products/visage/toniques/eau-de-melaleuca). Has anyone tried this or heard about it? The on-site reviews seem pretty good!















I should probably add that I've never used toner before, because *blush* I never really knew what it was! How important is it *actually* to getting and keeping clear, healthy skin?
Alcohol-free toners can be quite useful.The predominant role of Lush's toners are to remove any excess cleanser that might be left on the face, balace the pH level of the skin and prepare the skin for receieving a moistursiser.You'll also find that using toner first will actually make you use less moisturiser so you'll save a little $$ in the long run.I also use my Lush toner (I use Eau Roma Water) to 'set' my mineral makeup, making it last longer!!
I picked up the Tea Tree Water Toner on my recent trip to Lush. I hadn't used it for years. Now I am wondering why. It is really great and gentle. Many toners have alcohol, which is so bad for you! But not Lush toners. And I love the spray bottle application. It is a nice and simple toner that does its job without any harshness. And it is true that you can apply less moisturizer when using a good toner. So go for it!!
I am in the market for a new toner. My Juice Beauty Hydrating Mist has run out. I am so bummed that Whole Foods is not carrying it anymore. Thanks for the suggestions on the Lush toners. I am going to check out the Tea Tree on my next trip to the mall.
gem-Also really consider ordering the Joining of Herbs toner. It is stronger. But has no alcohol. I do love the Lush toner. But I have had some amazing results with the Joining of Herbs toner. It really cuts redness and clears me up quite a bit. My skin really has reacted well to it.
I love my Tea Tree Water from Lush. I use it on a pad in the morning, to just freshen up my face instead of washing it, and on a pad in the evening to remove the last traces of cleanser. Ever since I started this "routine" of sorts, my face has actually become what I will call normal. Not blemish free, but now at least the skin is normal looking. No greasy T-zone and dry cheeks. Just normal skin which is a first for me and quite remarkable.
I just bought the Tree Tea Toner tabs my last trip to Lush but I haven't tried it yet. Also the lady at Lush said that you can save the water and use it as a toner once your done the steam face thing. There only $1.50 a tab can't go wrong. I really want a try Joining herbs toner too, stylemama swears by it.
Tea Tree Water is the best toner. I am enabling you, and want you to buy it.
