Josey • Pennsylvania Date Submitted:  03/17/2019 I Recommend This Product!

"A must have!" COMMENTS:  I love the skin benefits of cucumber! I ordered this specifically for a gel facial toner. What I really love about it, which I wasn't expecting, is the mild scent. I didn't want to add any fragrance to the facial gel, but I didn't want the gel to smell like the preservative either. I didn't have to worry about that, because of the natural cucumber scent of this extract! The gel smells so clean and fresh! I am definitely ordering more! PRODUCT USED IN:   Face Care
