Share
If I had to choose one skincare product I couldn't live without, it would be toner. Many people forget the importance of toner, but it is one of the most important products in skincare. Let's take a moment to explore the benefits of toner and the different options so you can find the right product for your skin.
Why is facial toner important?
Facial toner is usually seen as a cleansing product, but its functions are not limited to just cleansing. With facial toner:
- You remove the last traces of makeup and dirt.
- Balances the skin's pH after cleansing.
- You prepare your skin to better receive moisturizing and caring products - such as serums and creams.
- You help your skin stay hydrated and balanced.
Different toners for different needs
When choosing a toner, think about your skin type and what your skin needs. There are many different toners on the market, so take a moment to choose the right product. Our skin's needs often change with the season, so it's a good idea to take this into account when making your choice. Here are some typical features of a toner:
🌿 Moisturizing toners:
Perfect for dry skin. Often contain hyaluronic acid, aloe vera or glycerin to help lock in moisture. Consider a hydrating toner for winter!
🌿 Soothing facial toners like rose water:
Rose water is a natural choice that is suitable for all skin types. It soothes irritated skin, lightly moisturizes and leaves the skin feeling refreshed. Plus, its antioxidant properties help protect the skin!
🌿 Exfoliating facial toners:
Contains acids such as AHA or BHA to remove dead skin cells and brighten the skin. Ideal for congested and dull skin, but use sparingly and moisturize well afterwards!
🌿 Balancing toners:
Toner specifically designed for oily and combination skin may contain niacinamide or tea tree oil, which help control excess sebum and shine.
How to choose the right facial toner?
When choosing a toner, keep in mind:
- Skin type: Is your skin dry, oily, sensitive or combination?
- Problem: Do you need hydration, soothing, balancing or exfoliation?
- Ingredients: Avoid products containing alcohol if you have dry or sensitive skin. Opt for natural, skin-friendly ingredients like rose water or aloe vera.
