What does the product description say?
"This lightweight amd watery toner with exfoliating and hydrating ingredients reveals newer, fresher-looking skin but also leaves skin toned, fresh and clean feeling."
From: Lookfantastic Australia

WIMJ FORMULA ANALYSIS

It can be helpful for moisturization, but will not get the job done on its own. Has good ingredients to attract water to the skin, but can't reduce water loss over time. Could use another product on top to "seal in" moisture

Pos Ingredient Name Description
1 mi The ingredient is not recognized
2 neral
3 water Plain old water
4 salix alba (willow) bark water
5 pyrus malus (apple) fruit water
6 butylene glycol Used to create a nice product texture and help delivery of other ingredients. Might be somewhat helpful in attracting water to the upper layer of the skin
7 1,2-hexanediol A preservative
8 sodium lactate Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin. Is often used to adjust the pH level of the product
9 glycolic acid An alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) that helps to remove the dead skin cells on the surface of the skin reveling a more even, smoother complexation. It is also able to stimulate collagen production with long-term use. Could help to reduce pore congestion. It can be irritating to the skin. Apply sunscreen daily if using products with glycolic acid
10 water Plain old water
11 betaine salicylate Exfoliating acid, a "relative" of salicylic acid
12 allantoin, panthenol
13 ethyl hexanediol Used to dissolve other ingredients. Might be irritating
