Saccharomyces Ferment 30% Milky Toner — Reddit Reviews
by The Ordinary
Updated October 13, 2026
Juicy hydration with gentle smoothing; mild exfoliation complicates tretinoin routines.
What the community says
A milky toner built around yeast extract and squalane, giving skin the juicy, smoothing prep people use before makeup. It fits dehydrated routines, but its mild exfoliating behavior makes daily use before tretinoin a poor bet.
