Toners are a water-based lotion or tonic that you use after cleansing and before moisturizing. They are designed to restore the skins pH balance, remove impurities and excess oils from the surface, and help tighten pores. Here are some of the benefits of using toners:

• Cleansing: Toners remove any dirt, grime, and impurities stuck in your pores after you wash your face, which can help prevent breakouts.

• Preparation: Toners prepare the skin to drink up your post-cleansing moisturizer and any other skin treatments that you may apply.

• Moisturizing: Toners gently refresh your skin without stripping it of its natural moisture, which means they wont irritate sensitive skin or cause excessive dryness.

• Skin type: Different formulas are made especially for your skin type. For example, astringents are ideal for those with oily skin, while hydrating toners are better for dry skin.

• Skin concerns: Toners can target a varying array of skin concerns, such as acne, dryness, and aging.

To use toner, apply it after cleansing your face but before moisturizing. You can apply it with a cotton ball, swab, round, or spray it directly onto your face.
