Good Product
It recently occurred to me that I'm not getting any younger and I had better start taking care of my face to preserve what I have left. This product serves as a toner, which I use after cleansing and shaving, but before applying a moisturizer. I also use and recommend Anthony Logistics Astringent Toner Pads as an alternative, although the result is somewhat different which I'll describe below.

The Hydrosol-Rose water not surprisingly has a very strong scent (of roses of course). I can smell it long after applying to my face, though my wife assures me she can only smell it if she gets very close to me. Otherwise it feels very refreshing and soothing on my face, particularly after it's been on for a while. Makes my skin soft and tightens pores nicely, though my skin sometimes feels a little dehydrated later in the day. Leaves a clean matte finish. Sometimes this is exactly what I'm looking for.

By comparison, the Anthony Logistics toner pads feel more refreshing during the application, particularly for soothing razor burn. Likely due to the witch hazel. The toner pads leave my skin significantly more hydrated throughout the day, and do a great job of evening out my skin tone (color and texture). Only problem is that it can leave my skin a little too shiny at times, can causes breakouts, and feels somewhat "heavy" on my face likely due to the extra moisture retention.

So in short, if you're looking for a light, soothing toner that tightens pores and leaves a clean matte finish, the Hydrosol-Rose makes a good choice. If you want more hydration and better tone with a little shine in your complexion, go with something like the Anthony Logistics toner pads. Good luck and hope this helps.

Lastly, I found the MenEssentials website very helpful for men's skincare in general. Something I initially knew very little about.
