You might be wondering, is a toner necessary to add (or keep) to my skincare routine? Well before we answer that, let's talk about what a toner is exactly, and what it's used for! And then you'll be able to decide for yourself if it's for you!
What Is A Toner?
Early toners were developed in order to remove residue left over on the skin after using certain soaps and hard water. They helped to balance pH levels on the skin as well. But even though they could be helpful, there were made with high alcohol concentration, making them effective, but harsh and drying!
These days, we have many options, including cleansers, that can help balance your pH, and we're not using such harsh soaps and water on our skin either. So, are toners still necessary? Maybe not necessary, but still helpful, yes!
While the original intent of toners may be a moot point now, there are so many wonderful toners out there that may be beneficial to you and your skin! Read on to see how!
Benefits of Using a Toner
Toners are meant to remove leftover makeup, oil, and dirt after cleansing the skin. We've talked before about reasons to double-cleanse, and the idea of using a toner is similar. Facial toners can help balance your skin's pH while also pulling out buildup from your pores, and adding back in some moisture you might have lost while cleansing. They help shrink pores and tighten skin. These days there are many types of toners out there, all formulated to do something slightly different, depending on what your skin needs. Some are created for dry skin, some for oily skin, some for acne-prone skin, and some for anti-aging purposes. Each has slightly different added ingredients to help with exfoliation, treating acne, etc. Toners are also more gentle, mild, and hydrating than in the past, and they work to brighten your skin tone. This may help slow down signs of aging like fine lines and blemishes. They help create the perfect canvas for the rest of your skin care products.
