The ancient days, people use naturally available resources to enhance their beauty. It is known that cosmetics are the products used to enhance and impart beauty to the user. In earlier days, naturally available ingredients were generally used as cosmetics, but with the passage of time and improvement in science, several chemicals came into existence that is said to impart or enhance beauty, thus used as cosmetics Using these chemical-based products can impart beauty for a particular time but it harms our skin when used for a long time. Many harmful effects have been noticed due to the usage of chemical-based products, thus now day's cosmetics industry mainly focuses on the preparation of herbal products. The face mist prepared is completely chemical-free and it will also provide a soothing effect to the skin, protect the skin from sunburn, and it also has proven anti-allergic properties. Toner is a skin care product that's applied to the face and neck after scrubbing. It is used to remove any trace of dirt and dead skin cells after scrubbing. It also helps smooth and get ready the skin for fresh skin care products, such as moisturizers and serums. Glycolic acid is most commonly used because it can be crips synthesized by combining chloroacetic acid with sodium hydroxide followed by re-acidification.
Effect of the Toner on the Skin
Nowadays, the diversity and prevalence of the products cause skin toners to be utilized more as cosmeceuticals products with several purposes; for example, rehydrating skin, balancing skin pH, tightening skin pores, relieving irritation, and also antisepsis.

Effects of Toner on Skin-
In the past, skin toner was a typical product used as a second cleansing agent residual makeup after regular facial cleansing or used for removing excess sebum from facial skin to prepare the skin before nourishing treatment Toners may be categorized into alcohol-based or non-alcohol-based toners for various skin types such as oily skin, sensitive skin, or combination skin Nowadays, the diversity and prevalence of the products cause skin toners to be utilized more as cosmeceutical products with several purposes, example, rehydrating skin, balancing skin pH, tightening skin pores, relieving irritation, and also antisepsis
Moreover Advantages of spray formulations are:
1. Application of the toner is much easier than any other form and uniform all over the
2. fine mist particles help good penetration with some pressure directly into the skin
3. The hydrolysis or any chemical reaction can be avoided with the formulation in spray form.
4. No direct contact or contamination can occur when the formulation is in spray form.
5. Rapid action with better efficacy, safety, and design can be provided with this fo
Mechanism of Spray/Mist Action:
The mechanism of action of the face spray toner can be explained as follows:
Fig: Design of a Spray
Mechanism of action of the spray formulation:
When the button on the top of the spray bottle is pressed, it pumps the grooved button. This pumping action forces the air from the nozzle to the dip tube. Now there is a drop in the pressure of top of tube due to pressing the top button. After this difference pressure falls in the tube and the liquid is foced up from the tube. The liquid now leaves the nozzle through the actuator as small mist droplets due to pressure and applied on skin through force penetrating inside skin.
Advantages Of Herbal Cosmetics
Herbs are important for their disease prevention and health promotion properties having following advantages which are described below:
1. Natural Products
Herbal cosmetics are natural and free from all the harmful synthetic chemicals which generally may turn out to be lethal to the skin.

2. Review Of Literature
Piranha Agawam. , Ilva D. Rupenthal et al (2016) studied in vitro and ex vivo corneal penetration and absorption models. To develop more efficient drug carriers, reliable in vitro or ex vivo models are required in the early stages of formulation development. This review discusses the invitro and ex vivo models currently being used to study corneal penetration and evaluates their advantages and limitations with afocus on diffusion cell assemblies. In addition to the tissue used, the diffusion cell set-up can significantly influence the penetration profile and should be cautiously adjusted to simulate clinical conditions.
Mahendra Singh Rathore. , Dipak K. Majumdar et al (2006) studied Effect of Formulation Factors on In Vitro Transcorneal Permeation of Gatifloxacin from Aqueous Drops. The purpose of this research was to optimize the formulation factors for maximum in vitro permeation of gatifloxacin from aqueous drops through excised goat cornea and to evaluate the permeation characteristics of drug from selected marketed eye drop formulations. Raising the drug concentration of the drops increased the drug permeation but decreased the percent permeation and the in vitro ocular availability. Raising the pH of the formulation from pH 5to 7.2 increased both the drug permeation and the in vitro ocular availability.
Pravin Kondiba Pawar. , Dipak K. Majumdar et al (2006) studied Effect of Formulation Factors on In Vitro Permeation of Moxifloxacin from Aqueous Drops through Excised Goat, Sheep, and Buffalo Cornea. The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the effect of formulation factors on in vitro permeation of moxifloxacin from aqueous drop through freshly excised goat, sheep, and buffalo corneas. Aqueous isotonic ophthalmic solutions of moxifloxacin hydrochloride of different concentrations, solutions of different pH or solutions containing different preservatives were made.

CONCLUSION
The results from the spray toner formulation were very satisfactory. The purpose behind the toner formulation was to achieve the cooling and toning effect on the skin was found to be satisfactory. Similarly, the intention behind formulating it in the mist form was to ease in carrying the formulation and application whenever and wherever needed. And the studied formulation proved to be satisfactory from that perspective as well. After application, there was no irritability, rashes, but some cleansing effect was observed. It is suggested that the prepared formulation is physio-chemically stable, and possessed characteristics of a standard cosmeceuticals formulation for skincare. The spray formulation gave More effective form to this formulation because spraying smaller particles on the skin with a certain amount of force made the formulation penetrate the small pores of the skin in a better way than any other form like gel or lotion.
