THAYERS® Lemon Astringent is like a tall glass of lemonade for your skin. This gentle astringent is derived from a time-honored formula, developed by Thayers to cleanse, tone, moisturize, and balance the pH level of skin. In addition to containing a blemish-fighting citrus blend and certified organic Aloe Vera, this unique, proprietary blend also contains certified organic, non-distilled Witch Hazel that’s grown exclusively for Thayers on a family farm in Fairfield County, Connecticut. By avoiding distillation of our Witch Hazel, we’re able to preserve the naturally-occurring, beneficial tannins, which are known to offer antioxidant and antibacterial benefits, and bring about a natural glow. Thayers elixirs have been a fixture in medicine cabinets for generations – once you use them, you’ll know why.

Summer is coming and this product is the very best thing for an INSTANT refreshment. I keep a sample bottle on me at all time and if I am feeling icky…I use this and instantly feel fresh!

Despite being well into middle age, in the hot weather my face still gets very oily and can even break out. I now use the Lemon Witch Hazel as my summer toner, and my skin looks and feels better than it ever has. I’ve tried much more expensive toners, but they didn’t come close to working as well as these good old products!

Love this toner, especially in the summer time! I’m 23, and always has combination skin up until this year when I just became super oily. After cleansing I apply this to my face and let it dry before moisturizing, you can feel it drying and going into your pores! Leaving my skin feeling super clean, oil free & breathable. Also the scent is heavenly.

Awesome scent! I have both the lavender and now the lemon which smells phenomenal. I alternate using them after I shave which cuts down on irritation and helps heal and soothe the skin. The trick is to put it on before your after shave to help reduce the burn. Works great. I bought my daughter the cucumber to clean her face in the morning and at night to help eliminate her acne and she loves it! I don’t even have to ask her to use it. She just does it on her own cuz she likes it so much. Very cool.

This product is the only product that will control my hormonal acne breakouts. I have been using the lemon astringent for about a month and a half now. In that time, I have had no breakouts and no dryness around my nose. It really balances my skin, while leaving it bright and clear! Great product, highly recommend.

A good product to have an hand year round especially in the warmer weather. I use it before washing my face and a small amount after washing my face ( just to be sure that I have removed all traces of dirt and oil ). Does not dry out my skin. Very pleased with this product.

As I rub it on my face there are bubbles, is it natural?
Currently using lemon astringent.
Carolina @ Thayers –
Hi there,
Thanks for bringing this to our attention! Due to the nature of natural ingredients we have come to expect lot to lot variations in appearance at times. While we are taking steps in our manufacturing process to minimize the occurrence of bubbles can assure you the product is as safe and effective as it’s always been. Rest assured that despite these variations, the quality and efficacy of the product has not been affected – I hope this helps!

I usually use the lavender one which i love! However they were out so i got this one instead which was a big mistake! I give me some hypopigmentations in my cheek area. I didn’t check the ingredients until after i started having patches on my face. Basically this is straight up witch Hazel and Alcohol i won’t advise using it.

Hi Amanda, we want all who use our product to have a positive experience and we apologize for the poor reaction your skin had to our Lemon Astringent. We do our best to try and educate our consumers on the differences between our Facial Toners and Astringents, as our Facial Toners are alcohol free, while all of our Astringent products contain alcohol to further help control oil production and acne-causing bacteria. If you would like to read more about the differences between our Facial Toners and Astringents, you can read our blog post here; https://www.thayers.com/toner-vs-astringent-issue-5/ .We also always recommend patch testing when trying new products, as we create a range of products that may not always be the most suitable option for every skin type.
