My first use of this AS splash. Saw it on etsy.com & went for a bottle.

At first glance, it seems to be a pretty good product. Witch hazel extract, aloe vera juice & lots of EOs. It smells like almond. Felt good going on, not tacky or greasy. Will use it for a week or 2 & post a review.
 
Happy Canada Day!
