Overview
This spray toner from Frownies combines hyaluronic acid and rose water with aloe vera, aspen bark, comfrey and rose hydrosol, aiming at hydration, oil balance and pH support in one easy spritz. It is positioned around supporting the look of hydrated, plumper-looking skin alongside a soothing aromatherapy scent.
At $16.90 for 2 fluid ounces, it is reasonably priced for a spray mist, and with close to 1,500 reviews averaging 4.2 stars, it is one of the more reviewed products in this lineup, which suggests it has been tested by a wide range of users over time.
The spray format makes it easy to reapply throughout the day, whether as a quick refresh over makeup or as a step before a moisturizer, which adds to its appeal as a simple, low-effort addition to a routine.

Performance notes
Hyaluronic acid draws in moisture, which may help support the appearance of hydrated, plumper looking skin. Rose water and aloe vera add a calming, soothing element, and the spray format makes it convenient for reapplying throughout the day rather than only right after cleansing.
What buyers say
A 4.2 star average from close to 1,500 reviews is a large, mixed-but-mostly-positive sample. It suggests solid overall satisfaction, though the score is a bit lower than some of the other toners here, which is worth weighing against the size of the review base.

Frequently asked questions
Is this a spray or a liquid you apply with a cotton pad?
It comes as a spray mist, which makes it easy to apply directly to the face or reapply throughout the day.
Does it help with the appearance of fine lines?
The hyaluronic acid may help support the look of hydrated, plumper skin, but it is not a treatment for wrinkles and should not be relied on as one.
What does it smell like?
It has a rose scent, in keeping with its rose water and rose hydrosol ingredients, which also gives it an aromatherapy-style feel.
