About Twinkle Apothecary

Balance and hydrate

Toner is a necessary step after cleansing to re-balance your skin's pH level and protect your skin barrier. 

Customize it: choose a mildly astringent toner base, (best for normal to oily skin) or a hydrosol for something purely hydrating. Essential oils are optional.

Try toner in the Starter Skincare Set ($55)

Choose your base:

Toner 

Ingredients: distilled water, witch hazel 86%, essential oil blend of your choice

Hydrosols

Hydrosols are aromatic waters distilled from fresh plant materials. These living cellular waters contain fatty acids, minerals, and other water soluble active nutrients from organic lavender flowers and roses.

Hydrosols can be used as toners, as a wetting agent for your powder cleanser, or as a hydrating step before applying your moisturizer. 

Rose hydrosol

This organic rose hydrosol smells like fresh roses, with sweet fruity top notes and a rich, honeyed finish.

Rose is said to help regulate sebum and balance oil production. It has antibacterial and antimicrobial properties, making it a soothing choice for acne-prone skin. Rose is said to have skin-repairing anti-aging properties. It's a moisturizer and acts as a humectant to prevent water loss. 

Good for:

All skin-types, especially dry, mature, and acne-prone.  

Lavender hydrosol

This organic lavender hydrosol has a fresh herbaceous floral scent with a sweet honeyed undertone. 

Lavender has cooling, refreshing properties, making it a good choice for itchy, inflamed skin. It also has antibacterial properties and will help heal and prevent acne breakouts. It also acts as a humectant to prevent moisture loss. 

Good for: 

All skin-types, especially sensitive, reactive skin. 

Choose your essential oils:

Rejuvenating blend

Choose the rejuvenating blend if you'd like to repair, revitalize, and soothe the skin on your face and body. It has a comforting herbaceous floral fragrance. 

Rejuvenating blend contains steam-distilled essential oils of: organic neroli, carrot seed, organic helichrysum, organic frankincense, roman chamomile, organic lavender, organic ylang ylang, rose geranium, and sandalwood. 

Acne blend

Choose the acne blend if you'd like to target easily congested pores and control and heal breakouts on your face and body. It has a refreshing green, herbal, woody fragrance. 

Acne blend contains steam-distilled essential oils of: rosalina, organic lavender, organic frankincense, hemp, rosemary, lemongrass, juniper berry, basil, and vetiver.   

New: You now have the option to choose a single essential oil instead of the above blends! Please write your choice in the notes section of your shopping cart. (See FAQs below for how to leave a note with your order.) 

Single essential oil options: tea tree, lavender, frankincense, carrot seed, geranium, chamomile, clary sage, ylang ylang, rosemary, patchouli, vetiver, atlas cedar, peppermint*, palo santo*, eucalyptus*, bergamot*, grapefruit*, lemon*, lime*, orange*

*denotes ingredients not recommended for facial care, but can be used as an aromatherapy mist

Instructions

Shake: Shake before use to disperse the essential oils evenly. 

Option 1: Mist directly onto your skin after cleansing, follow with oil, then Butter or Filter Balm 

Option 2suggested for acne-prone skin: Spray toner onto a cotton ball or reusable facial round and rub over skin after cleansing to remove excess dirt and oil. Follow with oil, then Butter or Filter Balm 

Product FAQs

Do I really need a toner? 

Yes. If you can only add one product to your skincare routine, start with toner. Good skin is all about pH balance, and toner helps your skin barrier layer stay in its preferred, slightly acidic state. This keeps your skin hydrated and allows the good bacteria that live on your skin to thrive and keep bad bacteria and inflammation-causing harmful pathogens at bay. For more information about your skin's microbiome, read this.

Is this good for dry, sensitive skin? 

Toner is great for all skin types. Be sure to follow with a moisturizer, always, but especially if you have dry skin. For a less astringent and essential oil-free option, choose a hydrosol base.

Brilliantly Balancing

I skipped out on toning my skin for a few years and saw the harm I doing. My skin was breaking out and not accepting creams and oils as well. With this toner, my skin feels softer and more receptive to the moisturizing effects of the facial oil I use directly after. I also love using the toner as a quick wipe down at the end of the day, it’s simple yet very effective.

Wow, it's awesome to hear that the toner is making such a difference in your skin! It makes me so happy to help you get back on track with your routine. Thank you for sharing this review!

A mini spa treatment

I’ve been using the rose hydrosol twice a day for months and love how refreshed it makes my skin feel. My husband uses the lavender hydrosol with the acne blend.

It is so luxurious feeling, right?! Thanks so much for the awesome review!

Subscriptions

Boxes: The Surprise Scent Monthly and Off the Menu subscriptions work the same way. To sign up, place your order by the 14th of each month by 12 pm US central time. The boxes (or envelopes) will ship on the 15th, or next business day if the 15th falls on a weekend or holiday.

Ordering after the 14th at noon puts you on the list for the next month's box.

Example: To sign up for a January Subscription box, you can order anytime between December 14th at 12:00 pm - January 14th at 11:59 am.

Ordering on January 14th at 12:00 pm or after will sign you up for the February box.

What's in the next box: The next month's Off the Menu item and a hint for the upcoming Surprise Scent will be revealed on the respective product pages after the 14th at noon each month. Be sure to check the product pages on the afternoon of the 14th to see what's in the next month's box, especially if you are not subscribed to my email list or push notifications!

You will always be charged for the next month's box each month on the same day (and exact time) that you placed your original order. If you would like to cancel or skip a month, you'll need to do so before your charge date. If you are not able to cancel before you're charged, simply email me to be refunded any time before I make the products on the afternoon of the 14th.

If you sign up for multiple subscription boxes (fun!) I will ship them all together to you on the 15th and refund any excess shipping fees.

For regular subscribe-and-save recurring product orders: your item will ship within 1-5 business days from the time you place your order.

Split-shipment policy: If you are ordering other, non-subscription items at the same time as your subscription box (Off the Menu, Surprise Scent, Collect Them All Club,) and you would like to receive your non-subscription items before the 15th, please place a separate order. I can only double-ship your order if the other items in your order qualify for free shipping on their own. If you've ordered enough to qualify for free shipping but want me to hold the other items to ship at the same time as your subscription products, great! Feel free to leave a note with your order and let me know!

All subscriptions are self-service.

How to cancel: You may cancel your order any time before your next charge date by logging into your account and clicking on the "My Subscriptions" button. If you are unable to cancel before you're charged, please email me to be refunded ASAP, before I make and ship your product. I cannot refund products that have already been made and/or shipped.

How to edit: To cancel, pause, switch items, add additional products, notes, or coupons to your subscription orders and to edit your subscription shipping address, simply log into your account and click on the "My Subscriptions" button. The process for editing your recurring order in the portal is so easy! If you are unable to access your account for any reason, please email me and I'm happy to help.

If you move: you are responsible for updating your shipping address before your next charge date. Orders shipped to the wrong address will not be refunded or replaced. I am happy to help you update your address, but you will need to email me before your order ships!

PLEASE NOTE: Updating your subscription order address is a SEPARATE ACTION from updating the default address on your Twinkle customer account. Update both to make sure you get your order. The subscription order address can be edited in the subscription portal (accessed by clicking on the "my subscriptions" button.)
