Description

Reset your skin with the Gallinée Face Vinegar

Ideal for oily and sensitive skin, the Face Vinegar purifies, brightens and tones without stripping skin. This high performance formula is powered by Actibiome, a new generation prebiotic that calms stressed skin and prevents further irritation. It works alongside gentle postbiotic acids that nurture the skin’s beneficial bacteria.

The secondary active ingredient is the Hibiscus-infused Apple Cider Vinegar, a 3-in-1 toning super-ingredient that brings a wealth of health benefits for your skin:

  • Purifies: It’s packed with astringent Acetic acid, that gently removes dirt and unhealthy bacteria, and with tannins, that have been proven to regulate sebum production.
  • Protects: Antioxidants contained in the vinegar help neutralise free radicals - the molecules that degrade skin cells and cause premature ageing and blemishes. Oxidative stress is reduced and skin is protected from external ageing factors.
  • Regenerates: Thanks to the gentle exfoliating properties of the AHA (alpha hydroxyacid), it stimulates skin cell renewal for a smoother, refined appearance. It also helps minimise the appearance of blemish scarring.

Our founder’s word:

“The toner that started a trend. I love our Face Vinegar because it feels so lightweight but does so much! And also because it’s a one of a kind high tech formula with two patents.
I use it on a cotton pad at night, after cleansing, and I just splash it on my face in the morning, it’s a great way to wake up the skin. It truly is a multi-tasking wonder, and the best toner ever for sensitive skins”

Dr Marie Drago, founder of Gallinée

Key Ingredients

HIBISCUS APPLE CIDER VINEGAR: Known for its astringent, exfoliating and soothing properties.

ALGAE PREBIOTICS: A new generation ingredient powered by green and brown algae extracts, sea water and marine polysaccharides. Together they tackle signs of oxidative stress on the skin.

PREBIOTICS: A cocktail of ultra-gentle fibres and sugars that feed your skin’s good bacteria and help support the skin’s barrier, with an antibacterial action targeting the “bad” bacteria that can cause skin inflammation.

LACTIC ACID: The gentlest of AHAs (Alpha Hydroxy Acids, mostly derived from natural sources and used in skincare for their exfoliating properties). Lactic acid helps to maintain skin’s optimal pH level and has hydrating and softening properties. Gallinée uses a slow-release form to suit even the most sensitive skin.

PHYSIOLOGICAL PH: All Gallinée products are made to match the optimal pH of the skin and the microbiome.

FREE FROM: Our skin perfecting face vinegar doesn’t contain soap, colourants, parabens, mineral oils, silicones, microbeads, phenoxyethanol or methylisothiazolinone.

How to use

Use day and/or night on dry skin. After cleansing, pour your Face Vinegar toner onto a cotton pad or directly on your fingers and gently wipe it over your face and neck, avoiding the eye area. For additional moisturisation, follow application with our Youthful Serum or Hydrating Face Cream.

I have sensitive skin and if I’m stressed out along with not eating healthy it definitely shows, breakouts and all. I’ve been using this for over a week now and I can tell it calms my skin down. I use it every morning and night and it’s not harsh like other toners I’ve used before. In combination with the face cream this has given my skin a smoother, clearer look and it feels less oily. My breakouts are also less and so far I’m a fan.

It took me time to apreciate this product (I'm talking about Face Vinegar) but now I couldn't do without it. It's the first step of my routine in the morning (I don't wash my face on morning), it gently freshens up my skin and prepares it for the next steps of skincare. At first I was using it just after cleansing my face and it used to trigger irritation on my face. You just have to figure out where it's best for you in your routine and then bingo!

My skin was unbalanced, suffering from texture, dryness, and sensitivity due to using expensive products with strong active ingredients (Augustinus Bader's The Cream, Biologique Recherche P5). It was a terrible experience to look in the mirror, and I decided that it was time for a reset. While the sensitivity eased up after not using the other products, the texture and dryness still persisted. On a whim and inspired by an empties video by Estee Lalonde, I decided to buy this toner, the serum, and the facial scrub. I can confidently say that it's transformed my skin and restored the health to my ailing skin barrier. Soft, smooth, buoyant, no texture! I hope that Gallinee never goes out of business.

Read moreI received the face vinegar as part of the Happy Bacteria Set and it has been by far my favourite product from the box and my go-to toner. It has no alcohol but it manages to keep my oily and highly sensitive skin shine free. I will buy it again!

    I love it! I use it after cleaning my skin with micellar lotion. Smell and texture are great. Not too corrosive which is what I was worried of at first sight. Will definitely buy it again !

Read moreI've been using the face vinegar now for nearly 3 weeks and already see a noticeable difference in the look and feel of my skin. My skin feels cleaner and smoother, and it looks fresher with fewer areas of redness. With sensitive skin I've always been cautious of new products, especially toners which have stung at tines. Not with the face vinegar though, it feels gentle yet effective!

Is your Face Vinegar considered as an acid?

Our Face vinegar fits in the family of acid toners, as we are mixing two gentle acids: Lactic Acid and Acetic Acid (the scientific name of vinegar). Like all Gallinée products, it’s the perfect level of acidity for your skin and your microbiome.

Can I mix it with another product?

Our face vinegar can be integrated in any skincare routine, usually as a toner.

Is apple cider vinegar good for acne?

When incorporated regularly into your skincare routine, Apple Cider Vinegar will help prevent the build-up of blemishes, imperfections and yes… acne.

Is your Face vinegar recommended for sensitive skin?

Don’t be scared by the name? Our Face Vinegar has been submitted to strict clinical tests and is suitable for sensitive skin. It will soothe stressed skin and help with redness.

Does your face vinegar kill bacteria on skin?

The clever thing about incorporating Apple Cider Vinegar into your skincare routine is that it can be remarkably selective with which bacteria it will kill and the ones it has to keep.

Does vinegar help shrink dilated pores?

Apple cider vinegar, when used regularly as part of a toner, can help to tighten and shrink the appearance of pores on your skin.

How often should I use the Gallinée Face Vinegar Toner?

The Face Vinegar can be used as a toner applying it on a cotton disk in the morning and/or at night before using your hydrating cream or oil. You can also splash it on your face every morning for an immediate good-looking effect.

How does the Face Vinegar smell?

Unsurprisingly, the Face Vinegar has a definite smell of vinegar, but not nearly as strong as you would get if you sniffed your standard kitchen vinegar.

“5 stars – A great product! Smells a tiny bit vinegary but only for about 5 seconds on application” – Holly (verified buyer)
