Toners, we have all heard of them.  If you do not know what a toner is or how it can benefit you, you are not alone.  Fortunately, we created the ultimate toner guide to help you better understand what a toner is, how it can benefit you and some of the top toners on the market today.  More and more people are implementing toners into their daily skin care routine.

Our survey revealed:

60% of women are adding toners into their daily skin care routine.  In fact, the average woman spends just over $23 for a toner.

What is a Toner?

To put it simply, a facial toner is a deep penetrating liquid that delivers skin hydration and helps remove dead skin cells from the surface of your skin.  The results leave a plump glowing skin.

In past times, a toner was labeled unnecessary with ingredients including alcohol, drying the skin out, which does not help create a radiant healthy complexion.  This day and age, toners are almost the opposite.  Most toners do not include alcohol, in addition there are a vast variety of toners for almost every skin type.  Where as in past times toners were very limited in their skin type uses.

Toner’s can act as a great primer for the rest of your skin care routine.  Toners are typically applied just after cleansing.  This helps prime the skin for products being applied.

Benefits of Toners

Added Protection

Skin Toners help close pores and tighten skin cells, which in turn reduces the penetration of impurities into the skin.

Reduces Pores

Enlarged pores are made less visible by using products that cleanse and exfoliate your skin.  Toners cleansing removes dead skin cells and impurities to prevent build up and enlarged pores. Exfoliation helps remove build up on the skin.

Restores Skin's PH Balance

Above other things, PH levels help your skin looking radiant and resist harmful bacteria.  When skin produces excess oil, facial cleansers are often used to combat the oily skin.  The skin becomes slightly dry often leaving it with a low PH level.

This is where the toner comes in, most toners are at the optimal PH level balancing your skin leaving it looking glowing and radiant.

Hydrates the Skin

Toners are watery liquid substances that offer hydration and restores the balance to the skin.  Skin Toners ability to penetrate the skin with active ingredients provides hydration that moisturizers or cremes wouldn't otherwise.

When to Apply Toner?

Toners should be implemented just after the cleanser step.
