Some skin conditions require more than calming—they require transformation. The Lavender Restore Toner is our most therapeutic formula, designed for skin dealing with stubborn congestion, dullness, uneven texture, and conditions that need active intervention.
We start with lavender-infused witch hazel as our base, then layer in powerful botanicals: ginger root to stimulate circulation and promote cellular turnover, orange peel for its brightening and clarifying properties, chamomile to balance the formula's potency with calming support, and pink peppercorn—a unique ingredient that enhances absorption and delivers warming, circulation-boosting benefits.
This isn't a toner for skin that's just a little off. This is for skin that's been struggling—with texture, with tone, with conditions that seem stuck. The warming botanicals wake up sluggish skin, promote detoxification, and create the optimal environment for healing and renewal.
Handcrafted in small batches by a licensed esthetician, herbalist, and massage therapist who understands that sometimes skin needs to be activated, not just soothed.

Shake well. After cleansing, mist 2-3 pumps onto face, avoiding eye area. You may feel a subtle warming sensation—this is the ginger and pink peppercorn activating circulation. Allow to absorb, then follow with your Love U Studios treatment oil.
For intensive treatment: Use twice daily for 4-6 weeks to see significant improvement in texture and tone.
Note: Due to the active nature of this formula, patch test before first use. If you have extremely sensitive skin, start with once-daily use.

For Complex Skin Conditions
This formula addresses skin that's dealing with multiple issues at once: congestion AND dullness, texture AND tone problems, sluggishness AND inflammation. The synergistic blend of warming and calming botanicals works on several levels simultaneously.
Circulation Activation
Ginger and pink peppercorn are both known for their ability to stimulate blood flow. Increased circulation means more oxygen and nutrients reaching skin cells, faster removal of toxins, and accelerated healing. This is particularly beneficial for skin that looks tired, sallow, or "stuck."
Cellular Turnover Support
Sluggish skin often has a buildup of dead cells that make it look dull and feel rough. The warming botanicals in this formula encourage natural exfoliation and cell renewal without harsh physical or chemical exfoliants.
Congestion Clearing
For skin prone to clogged pores, blackheads, or that "bumpy" texture that won't smooth out, this toner helps break up stagnation. Witch hazel tightens pores while ginger and orange peel work to clear congestion from within.
Brightening & Tone Correction
Orange peel brings natural vitamin C and mild fruit acids that help fade dark spots, even out skin tone, and restore radiance to dull complexions. Over time, skin appears more luminous and uniform.
Enhanced Product Absorption
The warming action of this toner doesn't just feel good—it actually opens pathways for your subsequent skincare products to penetrate more deeply. Your treatment oils will work harder when preceded by this toner.
Detoxification Support
Skin is an organ of elimination. When circulation is sluggish, toxins can accumulate and show up as breakouts, dullness, or persistent inflammation. This formula supports your skin's natural detox processes
