The brightening, purifying and hydrating efficacy of this replenishing toner comes thanks to a triple AHA Complex derived from Italian Lemons, Apples and Grapes, alongside upcycled ingredients selected for their anti-aging benefits.
Utilizing the moisturizing properties of Saccharide Isomerate, which has a natural affinity to the skin, this toner draws its soothing and purifying action from Rose and Witch Hazel Waters. Extracted from Italian fruits, a triple-blend of Alpha Hydroxy Acids, including Tartaric, Malic and Citrus, offers a gentle toning and purifying prelude to the skincare that follows.

Our Ingredients
We focus on locally sourced Mediterranean ingredients, many of which come from our Organic Farm in Sicily. Each ingredient must smell and feel amazing but more importantly have clear benefits in use, without any compromise in skin kindness.
“Through my time spent working with spas, I knew that I wanted to create experiential skincare. I noticed that many natural brands were using ‘essential oils’ to fragrance their products, and these often have unpredictable allergenic effects. The attempts by some natural brands to avoid this issue by being unperfumed didn’t make sense as fragrance is a key component of the spa experience, and is vital in stimulating emotions. So, I teamed up with Dr. Francesca Ferri to create lab-formulated, allergen-screened fragrances, ensuring our products combine outstanding fragrance with outstandingly low allergenic potential.”
