Then I Met You Living Sea Cleansing Tonic is a hydrating micellar water-style toner that removes makeup and impurities while replenishing skin with deep sea minerals and gentle botanical actives.

This multi-tasking Korean-inspired facial tonic combines 86% deep sea water from Korea with papaya enzymes, licorice root, seaberry, and persimmon extract to cleanse without stripping natural moisture. It functions as a makeup remover, micellar cleanser, and refreshing toner in one bottle, designed to fit into morning and evening routines or to revive skin midday. The formula is vegan, cruelty-free, and free of synthetic colorants, parabens, silicones, alcohol, and added fragrances—aimed at delivering a sensorial, gentle cleanse that supports skin balance.

How does this tonic remove makeup without drying my skin?

The Living Sea Cleansing Tonic uses micellar-like technology and a high proportion of deep sea water to lift dirt and makeup while maintaining hydration. Papaya enzymes provide mild exfoliation to help dissolve surface buildup, and humectant-rich extracts help preserve moisture during cleansing.

• Micellar action to attract oil and grime without harsh surfactants
• 86% deep sea water replenishes minerals and supports hydration
• Papaya enzymes gently loosen dead skin cells and residue
• Formulated without alcohol or synthetic fragrances to avoid dryness

Can I use it on sensitive or acne-prone skin?

The product is formulated to be gentle and suitable for all skin types, including sensitive and acne-prone skin, because it avoids common irritants and focuses on soothing botanicals. Licorice root and seaberry help calm and support skin tone while the lightweight base reduces the risk of pore-clogging.

• No parabens, silicones, or harsh preservatives
• Licorice root for soothing and evening skin tone
• Non-comedogenic texture that won’t feel heavy on skin
• Leaping Bunny certified—no animal testing at any stage

How do I include this tonic in my daily routine?

You can use the cleansing tonic as the second step after an oil cleanse, as a morning refresher, or as a quick makeup remover on the go. Apply to a cotton pad to sweep away makeup and impurities, or dispense into your hands and pat onto face and neck to hydrate and tone.

• Morning: pat on for a refreshed, hydrated start
• Evening: use after oil cleanse to remove residue and prep for serum
• Midday: press into skin to revive and rebalance
• Suitable for use with other active treatments and serums
