4 Things You Should Know About Toners

When Should You Use Facial Toner?
You should always use a facial toner after cleansing. You can do it once a day after you cleanse and exfoliate the skin. Applying it after you exfoliate allows the skin to be clear from any dirt, grime, and make-up to allow the skin-benefiting ingredients to set into the skin.

How Should You Apply It?
You can do this one of three ways. You can gently spritz some in your hands and pat down on your face. You can spray some on a cotton pad and swipe on your face. You can even just directly spritz a mist of it on your face.

How Do I Find the Right Facial Toner for my Skin Type?

• For those with large pores, try using a facial toner formulated with glycolic acid. Glycolic acid removes dead skin cells that accumulate around the pores making the pores look bigger than what they really are.

• For those with dull skin, try using a facial toner with natural exfoliants like lactic acid or papaya extracts. These ingredients work great in brightening the skin for a natural glow and shine. Avoid facial toners with any alcohol as this will dry the skin and dull it out even more.

• For those with sensitive skin, try using a facial toner enriched with skin-calming botanicals. These calming botanicals relieve the skin and deeply hydrate it for an all day glow.

• For those with oily skin/acne-prone, try using a salicylic acid-based toner. This ingredient helps to remove excess oil without stripping your skin of essential moisture.
