BETA-GLUCAN + d-PANTHENOL penetrate lipid layer to rehydrate, rebalance microflora + skin pH.
This tonic hydrates via a unique process designed to balance the liquid content of skin cells with the lipids that surround them; and in so doing it provides necessary support for the stratum corneum to be self sufficient.
The stratum corneum contains multiple layers of flattened cells (corneocytes), encased in a thick coating of fat or lipids. Arranged into pairs of sheets (lamellar membranes), these lamellar lipid bi-layers fill spaces between the cells, providing a formidable barrier to the outflow of water from skin (transepidermal water loss).
Most water-based moisturizers/hydrators seep into the lamellar layers of the SC, leaching water from skin cells—potentially why conventional mists or toners can leave skin more dehydrated. Our biomimetic design has produced a one-of-a-kind tonic, composed of humectants with distinctive similarity to the skin’s lamellar structure. Since maintaining lamellar membrane integrity also protects the contents of the skin cells, the tonic not only promotes liquid/lipid balances, it also restores and improves overall barrier function.
Unique blend of humectants truly hydrate by maintaining moisture levels within the cellular/lamellar structures.
Imperative to prep top skin layers, allowing optimum permeation of nutrient-rich serums.
AHAs rebalance pH, pre/probiotics rebalance skin microbiome.
BETA GLUCAN excellent polysaccharide humectant that penetrates into the deeper lamellar structures of the SC.
d-PANTHENOL Pro-vitamin B5 promotes wound healing, helps restore damaged epithelium, reduces inflammation, improves skin hydration, reduces transepidermal water loss, improves skin roughness.
SODIUM HYALURONATE disaccharide occurring naturally in skin, a major component of the dermis, maintaining its moisture and elasticity. Holds up to 1000x its weight in water—a powerful humectant.
LICORICE ROOT Anti-inflammatory botanical, skin-lightening properties.
SELENIUM Works with vitamin E to safeguard cell membranes by inhibiting lipid peroxidation. Used to control Malassezia globose, a species of fungus that causes Tinea versicolor and hypopigmentation.

All the Marie Veronique products make me feel special - because I know am doing exactly what my skin needs. And when I use them - whether cleansing with the oil or applying a serum - I close my eyes, try to slow down and fully embrace the experience - my skin drinks in those nutrients like a tall glass of cold water on a hot day.
There is not one day I go without the Balancing Hypotonic - I start my morning skin care with it, calming yet refreshing, prepping my skin to soak up the morning serum and the Daily Protective Oil. Over the years, due to using these delicious products, I’ve been able to use less makeup and more MV!! Marie Veronique on my skin daily is way more valuable than heavy makeup and foundation and blush and powder - and my healthy glowing skin, on which I receive consistent compliments - is the undeniable proof! Thank you, MV!
I tried this on a friend's recommendation. I've never really used a tonic or a toner, so wasn't sure if it was necessary. Within a week or two my skin leveled out in terms of redness and any little bumps or flare ups. In general, my skin stays balanced and hydrated. In the morning I just splash my face with cold water then use this, no cleansing needed. I love it!
Amazing !!
This is a hydrating toner, unlike acid toners I'm used to, this nourishes and soothes as opposed to deeply cleaning pores. The scent is a bit strange and earthy but it is very soothing overall.
This product is an essential part of my morning and evening cleansing/moisturizing rituals. I'm not sure how it works, but it DOES work. Leaves my skin plump and hydrated and well-prepped for the layers of MV serums that follow. When I realize I'm halfway into a bottle, I get nervous about running out but then remember that I have my subscription in place. Phew!
