What is Phyris Astringent Tonic?
Phyris Astringent Tonic is a toning step in the Phyris Cleansing line, a German professional skincare range. Phyris formulates it as a balancing toner with an astringent effect.
When applied on a cotton pad after cleansing, it is designed to refine the look of the complexion. It is also designed to help control the oily shine that combination and oily skin can develop through the day. Meanwhile, the lightweight, alcohol-containing formula aims to leave the skin feeling fresh and clarified rather than tight.
Key benefits of Phyris Astringent Tonic
- Reduces the look of oily shine: formulated with a yeast-protein complex to help mattify the skin.
- Refines the complexion: supports a more even, balanced-looking skin tone.
- Removes cleansing residue: a toning step that helps lift the last traces of cleanser or makeup.
- Fresh, light finish: the alcohol-containing formula leaves a clean feel without heaviness.
Key ingredients
Phyris highlights a yeast extract complex, formulated to reduce excessive sebum production on oily skin. It combines hydrolyzed yeast protein with allantoin as well as B vitamins (niacinamide/B3 and biotin/B7).
According to the brand, the synergy of these ingredients has a mattifying effect that supports a more even-looking complexion. Panthenol (provitamin B5) is also included to help soothe the skin after the astringent action.
How to use Phyris Astringent Tonic
- Before toning, cleanse the skin with a Phyris cleanser.
- Then soak a cotton pad with a few drops of Astringent Tonic.
- Gently stroke it over the face, neck and décolleté, avoiding the eye area.
- Finally, follow with your regular Phyris moisturizer or treatment.
Who is Phyris Astringent Tonic for?
Phyris recommends Astringent Tonic for combination and oily skin that tends to look shiny by midday. Phyris also recommends it for anyone who wants a toning step that helps remove the last of their cleanser.
Because the formula contains alcohol, those with very dry or reactive skin may prefer Phyris Hydro Tonic instead.
