Bambu Earth Apple Cider Toner

This alcohol-free toner is made to support a clearer, more balanced-looking complexion using a blend of botanical distillate waters, apple cider vinegar, witch hazel water, and black currant extract. It has that fresh, “skin feels reset” finish without relying on a long ingredient list, and it’s a nice option when you want something gentle that helps remove lingering residue after cleansing.

What I Like

  • EWG rating: 2, based on entering the ingredient list into the EWG Skin Deep Analyzer.

  • I like that this toner doesn’t dry out my skin. When I’m dealing with hormonal psoriasis or more sensitive skin around my cycle, this feels noticeably more gentle than alcohol-based toners.

  • It keeps things simple with hydrosols, apple cider vinegar, and witch hazel, without feeling harsh or stripping.

  • My skin feels cleaner and more balanced after using it, not tight.

Things to Keep in Mind

  • Apple cider vinegar and witch hazel can still feel too stimulating if your skin barrier is already irritated, over-exfoliated, or very dry.

  • Lavender and rosemary distillate waters are naturally aromatic. Even in distillate form, they can be a sensitivity trigger for some fragrance-reactive skin types.

Sensitive Skin & Pregnancy Considerations

This toner does not include pregnancy-restricted actives, but sensitive or reactive skin may be more prone to stinging or dryness due to the combination of vinegar, witch hazel, and aromatic botanicals. If you are rosacea-prone, eczema-prone, barrier-impaired, or you know you react to lavender or rosemary, patch testing on the jawline for a few nights is a reasonable step before regular facial use.
