What is the texture like?
This feels pretty watery, hydrating and is refreshing when applied. 

Is this scented?
It smells a bit herbal when freshly applied but the scent dissipates quickly.

What has my experience with the product been like?
Again I'm coming at you with a first impression and if I'm going to be completely honest - I am unsure of how to feel about this. Unless a toner really hydrates or dries me out or has some sort of remarkable scent it's hard for me to evaluate it - especially one that sprays on as there's not much of a set "texture" outside of wetness. :/ I will say the sprayer on this isn't my favorite because it tends to spray out a lot in an uneven fashion - I'm wondering if the full-sized one does the same or not. Overall all I do like it enough to keep using it and we'll just see what happens with continued use. I'm sorry I'm unable to provide y'all with a more thorough review.

Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.
