What is a Cloudberry? What are the skincare benefits?

A cloudberry is a golden antioxidant-rich superfruit that contains 3x the Vitamin C of an orange and is naturally rich in Vitamin E, Omega-3 & Omega-6 fatty acids and ellagic acid, which protects skin from damaging free radicals and external stressors. The Cloudberry Concentrate in our formula is a blend of fruit extract and seed oil, wildcrafted in their natural habitats in Scandinavia and processed via an eco-friendly freeze-drying method that preserves nutrients at peak potency. This potent antioxidant is fermented to further help absorption and efficacy, and helps to brighten, even skin tone and protect skin from free radicals.

What is CoQ10?

CoQ10 is a powerful biocompatible antioxidant that strengthens skin while helping to boost the effectiveness of other key ingredients. It’s known as “coenzyme” because it’s needed for other enzymes to function + synergizes with other skincare to maximize benefits! CoQ10 boosts skin’s ability to retain moisture and reduce fine lines and wrinkles.

What is the difference between Cloudberry Essence and Watermelon Glow Toner?

Watermelon Glow PHA + BHA Pore-Tight Toner provides hard-hitting, dual pore-refining & hydrating skin benefits, while the Cloudberry Bright Essence Toner formula was developed to be a powerful, multi-tasking treatment with clinically-proven skin benefits in an intensely hydrating, acid-free and alcohol-free formulation. It works in synergy with other skincare steps for maximum absorption and to enhance the delivery of active ingredients into skin. It levels-up your routine by synergizing with your next skincare steps.

Can I use Cloudberry Essence Toner with my current toner in the same routine?

It depends on your toner’s ingredient list and consistency. If you already have our Watermelon Glow PHA + BHA Pore-Tight Toner, use that first to clear and unclog pores, then follow with Cloudberry Bright Essence Toner to brighten and hydrate for a radiant, even toned complexion. Both formulas should be gently pressed into skin upon application.

In what order would this be applied in relation to your other serums?

Generally, products should be applied in order from thinnest to most dense. The Cloudberry Bright Essence Toner should be used after cleansing and prior to applying your serum and moisturizer. This will help to prep your skin and allow for the subsequent ingredients to work more effectively.

What is the proper way to store my Cloudberry Toner Essence?

Keep in a cool, dry place. Do not keep in direct light.

Reviews Summary
Customers say this toner feels hydrating and refreshing, leaving skin looking brighter and more even-toned. Many appreciate how lightweight it is and that it preps skin well for serums and moisturizers. Users report noticing improved skin texture and a more radiant appearance after a few weeks of use. The product absorbs quickly without stickiness, and customers love the pleasant scent and convenient pump dispenser. Some find it gentle enough for sensitive skin, though a few experienced irritation. A common note mentions the bottle size is smaller than expected.

    Favorite product in my skincare routine!!!

    A few weeks ago I stopped using this essence-toner and was surprised when I could tell the difference. I don’t usually post reviews but I love this product so much that I’ve begun to wonder what I would do if it was discontinued. I have two extra unopened bottles because my paranoia has made me stock up. So I came to leave a review in hopes that this review along with the other ones will help keep this product around for the long haul. I have a long skincare routine so I don’t think it’s fair to attribute the overall state of my skin to this product in particular but I do see a noticeable difference in my skin’s brightness and evenness.

    My skin love it 🫶

    Girls, if you have lifeless skin you need this toner. Its texture is like a soothing essence, I have hyper pigmentation and sensitivity and my skin is clearly seeing results, immediately my skin looks hydrated and illuminated. I am a fan of the dewy look and with this toner it helps me to have my skin much more hydrated, I am honest with you that I have not seen many improvements with the spots but they are more attenuated.
