I have combination skin with quite a bit of acne. At first, the toner did seem to be aiding in soothing my acne and made my skin feel amazing, however soon I did notice some painful red bumps appearing on my skin. I immediately stopped using it, which reduced the redness a little bit, but not completely. It took about 2 months for my skin to heal. Although my skin has healed significantly from the damage caused by the toner then, it is still not back to its normal state and still healing from a few scars that were left behind from the cystic acne that formed.
