Face toner FAQs
A toner for the face is a liquid skincare product typically applied after cleansing. It helps to remove any remaining dirt, oil, or makeup that your cleanser might have missed, ensuring your skin is thoroughly clean.
In addition to cleansing, face toners also help restore natural pH balance, tighten pores, and prepare your skin for the next steps in your skincare routine, such as serums or hydrators.
There are advantages of using a face toner particularly if you:
- Have oily or blemish-prone skin
- Experience dry or dehydrated skin
- Want to tighten pores and refine your skin's texture
Face toner can be a great addition if you're looking to enhance your cleansing routine or address specific skin concerns.
Toners include ingredients designed to address various skin concerns and enhance the absorption of subsequent skincare products.
- Salicylic acid: Often used in toners for oily and blemish-prone skin to help exfoliate and reduce the appearance of pores.
- Hyaluronic acid: A hydrating ingredient that helps maintain moisture balance, especially for dry or dehydrated skin.
- Vitamin B5: A humectant known for its soothing properties, helping to calm the skin and ease redness.
- Mandelic acid: An alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that gently exfoliates and brightens skin.
Consider your skin type and look for a product that aligns with your skincare goals and addresses your specific concerns. Toners can help balance your skin’s pH, remove remaining impurities, and prepare your skin for the next step in your regimen.
Look for ingredients such as exfoliants to brighten the skin, hydrating agents to lock in moisture, or soothing elements to calm irritation. Select a face toner that complements the other products in your skincare routine for the best results.
Yes, face toner can be especially beneficial for oily or blemish-prone skin. It can help remove excess oil, clear away pore-clogging debris, and balance your complexion without over-drying. Ingredients like salicylic acid can help manage breakouts and keep pores clear, while consistent use can support a clearer, healthier complexion.
If you have skin that's easily irritated, choose fragrance-free options with soothing ingredients like aloe, chamomile, or antioxidants. Gentle toners help calm irritation, restore hydration, and support a healthy skin barrier.
Most toners can be used 2 times a day (AM + PM), but if you have sensitive skin, start with once a day, and gradually build up your usage. If you experience irritation, reduce your use to every other day.
The following steps will help you understand when to use a face toner and how to incorporate it into your regimen:
- Start by cleansing your skin with a gentle facial cleanser to remove dirt, oil, and makeup.
- Select a face toner or pads suited to your skin type and skincare needs.
- If you're using toner, pour a small amount onto a cotton pad or into the palms of your hands.
- Gently swipe the cotton pad or tap the toner onto your skin. Start from your forehead and work your way down, moving across your face and neck. Avoid the delicate eye area.
- Use your fingertips to lightly tap your skin. This helps the toner fully absorb into your skin for maximum benefit. Don’t rinse it off, toners are designed to be left on.
- Follow up with products such as serums, hydrators or treatments.
Yes, you can use toner with other skincare products. Toners are designed to complement your routine, helping to balance skin, and enhance absorption of serums and hydrators.
