toner BALANCE DUAL-PHASE TONER As step two of the system, BALANCE Dual-Phase Toner helps reduce the appearance of pores and blemishes, may help against future breakouts, and provides all-day shine control for a more flawless complexion. This formula restores the skin after cleansing, so you can get the appearance of a brighter, detoxified, and more clarified complexion after two weeks.

KEY INGREDIENTS

  • Noni extract: This ingredient supports a healthy microbiome, reduces excess sebum on the surface of the skin, and minimizes the appearance of blemishes. Native to Southeast Asia and Australia, noni is noted for being able to survive harsh environments and is one of the first plants to colonize lava-ridden areas. This extract can interact with the skin's microbiome, effectively acting on the dysbiosis to perfect the skin's appearance. It targets the common microbiota imbalances associated with blemish-prone skin. It also decreases the relative production of S. aureus and P. acnes, while also maintaining the favorable skin microbiota S. epidermidis.
  • Ocean minerals: Ocean minerals deliver immediate glow to the skin and help minimize the appearance of pores in only 15 minutes. Our minerals are from sea water sourced from a deep marine lake off the Atlantic Coast, located in Noirmoutier, France—an island known for its salt marshes and salt banks. This sea water flows through different geological layers within the island, making it rich in manganese, zinc, iron, and lithium. These minerals promote clarity and luminosity and reduce dullness after two weeks of use. These ocean minerals have a soothing and remineralizing effect, bringing more magnesium, potassium, and sodium to the skin.
  • Pseudoalteromonas ferment extract: Produced via fermentation, this extract immediately reduces excess shine and provides an eight-hour mattifying effect on the skin. This sustainable marine extract is isolated from the glacial environment of the Antarctic Ocean. Over time, it works to reduce sebum accumulation, improving the overall appearance of oily and combination skin.
  • Ethically sourced bentonite clay: This ingredient absorbs excess oil and impurities without stripping skin of excess moisture, leaving it matte and healthy looking. Before shaking the toner, you will see the bentonite settle to the bottom of the bottle, creating a dual-phase formula.
  • Malachite extract: This semiprecious stone has a high copper content and is rich in antioxidants that help protect the skin from environmental stressors and premature aging. It also gives the toner its blue color.
  • Proprietary essential oil blend: BALANCE by Young Living utilizes an exclusive blend of Lavender, Patchouli, Lemon Peel, and Rosemary essential oils to help support oily and blemish-prone skin.

A must-add step when prepping the skin for moisturizer, this toner can be used to pamper normal, combination, and oily skin types.

FULL INGREDIENT LIST Water/Eau, Alcohol denat., Glycerin, Propanediol, Bentonite, Sea water/Eau de mer, Benzyl alcohol, Pseudoalteromonas ferment extract, Citrus aurantium dulcis† (Orange) flower extract, Sodium chloride, Hamamelis virginiana (Witch hazel) water, Citric acid, Sucrose, Malachite extract, Alcohol, Lavandula angustifolia† (Lavender) oil, Citrus aurantium dulcis† (Orange) peel extract, Nymphaea odorata root extract, Pogostemon cablin† (Patchouli) oil, Morinda citrifolia extract, Rosmarinus officinalis† (Rosemary) leaf oil, Citrus limon† (Lemon) peel oil, Mica, Titanium dioxide

lotion BALANCE MATTIFYING LOTION As step three of the system, BALANCE Mattifying Lotion uses optimal hydration to keep your skin happy throughout the day, locking in moisture and supporting a healthy skin biome. This formula is also gentle enough for everyday use, relying on oil-balancing and mattifying ingredients to control shine for clearer- looking skin.

KEY INGREDIENTS

  • Oat kernel extract: This ingredient improves the overall appearance of the skin's complexion and reduces the appearance of blemishes and redness for healthy-looking, radiant skin.
  • Noni stem cells: Extracted from noni fruit, this ingredient supports a healthy skin microbiome and reduces excess sebum on the surface of the skin to help minimize the appearance of blemishes.
  • Bacillus ferment: This ingredient has been shown to help minimize the appearance of skin imperfections and support the skin's microbiome, leaving skin looking beautiful. The ferment is isolated from clay sourced following sustainable practices near Aiguamolls de l'Empordà, a natural park in Spain. It soothes the skin and supports the skin's microbiome by reducing P. acnes (Propionibacterium acnes) biofilm formation and porphyrins, which are metabolic products of P. acnes that can become lodged in pores, creating blemishes.
  • Marrubium vulgare: Obtained via cell culture of horehound, this extract has been clinically proven to reduce the appearance of blackheads, give skin a smooth and even-feeling texture, improve skin smoothness and softness, and combat against the damaging effects of pollution and blue light, providing a healthy-looking, radiant complexion. In nature, horehound spontaneously grows in temperate areas of Europe, America, and Asia and has a history of use in ancient Roman and Arabic folk traditions. It is a flowering plant in the Lamiaceae family, which includes mint and white nettle, and is rich in beneficial phenylpropanoids that play a vital role in plant development by acting as an essential component of cell walls, giving this product soothing and protecting properties.
  • Rice starch (Oryza sativa): This ingredient keeps skin shine free by absorbing excess sebum on the surface without stripping it of moisture.
  • Proprietary essential oil blend: BALANCE by Young Living utilizes an exclusive blend of Lavender, Patchouli, Lemon Peel, and Rosemary essential oils to help support oily and blemish-prone skin.

Formulated to help unbalanced skin fight back against blackheads, redness, blemishes, and excess oil, this mattifying lotion offers lightweight hydration for all skin types.
