Farmstay Retinol Revive Toner

It's a light gel toner that preps skin after cleansing, restoring a comfortable feel and layering in a gentle dose of retinol with niacinamide, allantoin and centella. Used daily as the first care step, it leaves skin feeling hydrated and calm and looking more even, readying it for the serum and cream that follow.

The toner is the prep step and carries a lighter vitamin A level than the treatment steps, so it's the gentlest way to introduce the line. Where the serum and cream do the concentrated work, the toner focuses on comfort, hydration and an even-looking finish while adding a light touch of retinol care early in the routine.

Use it after cleansing, morning and evening. Smooth a small amount over the face with a cotton pad or your fingertips, then follow with serum and moisturiser. During the day, finish your routine with sunscreen. As the first step applied to bare skin, it preps the face so the products layered afterwards absorb more evenly.

Yes. It carries a light level of vitamin A alongside soothing ingredients like allantoin, centella, panthenol and chamomile, which makes it one of the gentlest ways to begin using retinol. Most people can use it daily. If your skin is reactive, patch-test first and start once a day before building up to morning and evening.

Niacinamide sits high in this formula and helps skin look more even and clear over time while supporting a comfortable, balanced feel. In a toner it works early in the routine, prepping the skin so the products that follow sit on an even base. Alongside the gentle retinol, it contributes to a smoother-looking complexion with regular use.

Yes, with the usual care around vitamin A. Keep strong vitamin C for the morning and vitamin A products for the evening rather than layering them together, and alternate nights if you also use an AHA or BHA exfoliant. This toner already contains a stable vitamin C derivative, so there's no need to add more at night.

Yes. It contains peanut oil (Arachis Hypogaea), relevant for nut allergies, and it's fragranced with declared allergens including limonene, hexyl cinnamal and linalool that can trigger reactive skin. If your skin is sensitive, patch-test before use and introduce it gradually rather than using it morning and evening from the start.
