With the introduction of Korea's ever famous 10 step skincare regime, face toner usage has become increasingly important basic step of your daily skin care regime. You should always include a cleanser and toner before anything else!
Simply, toner is like water, except that it is packed with nutrients for your skin. Facial toners are made to be very light liquids that is water-based so it can be absorbed by your skin easily. It is used to quickly penetrate into our skin to deliver hydration and help remove some dead cells off the surface at the same time. Think of toner as a prep for your pores.
Imagine your skin as a sponge. If you put a thick cream on a dry sponge, will it be absorbed? Chances are that it won't. But if you wet the sponge, the cream will be absorbed more easily. Likewise, our skin needs to be 'prepped' with the toner in order to absorb all the goodness and moisture from our other skincare products.
Who should use a toner? Really anyone, and this skincare step not only applies for women, but facial toner for men is equally important as well. In fact, all skin types should be including this in their skincare routine. Your pores will thank you!
Facial toner is basically the in-between skincare step. We recommend including toner in both your day and night skin-care routines.
Not sure at which step to apply in your skincare regime? It's meant to be used immediately after washing your face but before using your serum or moisturizer. One tip is to keep your face damp after washing instead of completely drying it with a towel.
You may be asking, what does face toner do for skin?
One of the purpose of facial toner is to restore your skin pH level and brings your skin back to its natural acidic state. Our skin is naturally acidic, typically with a pH level of 5-6. But our skin pH balance alters after cleansing due to the alkaline nature of soap. When this happens, your skin becomes more susceptible to bacterial growth and acne outbreaks, but using a toner can help restore this balance quickly.
Other face toner benefits is to also get rid of excess oil on your face after you wash it. If any bacteria or dirt lingers after your double cleanse, a toner will help get rid of it. This gives the appearance of smaller pores too.
Another of face toner uses is to help your skin absorb your skincare products. After clearing out your pores, your skincare products is now ready to be better absorbed. When your skin is hydrated and at a balanced pH after applying toner, other active ingredients can penetrate your skin. Think of it as a booster for your Vitamin C, retinol, or expensive anti-aging creams. After all, the ingredient has got to be absorbed in order for a product to work its magic on your skin. Otherwise, u are just wasting money!
The key to finding the most effective toner is to find one that is designed for your skin’s needs. There are different types of toners to benefit different skin types so do check the ingredient list before getting one to ensure it is suitable for your skin.
