What is a facial toner and how does it work?

The application of a facial toner is not just a simple step in skincare, but a powerful tool that can significantly improve the health and appearance of the skin.

A facial toner is typically applied after cleansing and helps to clarify the skin, restore balance, and refine pores. It optimally prepares the skin for subsequent care by improving the absorption of moisturizers and serums.

Facial toners ensure deep cleansing by removing any remaining traces of makeup and impurities, such as pollutants and excess oil, without drying out the skin.

The variety of facial toners is extensive, ranging from moisturizing formulas for dry skin to options specially developed for sensitive skin types. Choosing the right product is crucial for the effectiveness of skincare.

A facial toner clarifies and refreshes the skin, which is especially important after removing makeup or after a long day.

 

The benefits of facial toners include:

  • Clarifying and refreshing the skin
  • Improving skin texture
  • Reducing skin blemishes
  • Hydrating and refreshing the skin
  • Preparing the skin for subsequent skincare products

 

When and how often should I use a facial toner?

The ideal time to apply a toner is directly after facial cleansing, before applying any further skincare products. This allows the toner to effectively cleanse the pores and prepare the skin optimally for the absorption of subsequent products.

Facial toners can be applied both in the morning and in the evening to refresh and revitalize the skin.

 

The application of facial toners should be regular to achieve the best results:

  • Step 1: Cleanse your face thoroughly to remove makeup, dirt, and excess oil.
  • Step 2: Apply an appropriate amount of facial toner to a cotton pad or your palms.
  • Step 3: Gently pat or sweep the facial toner over your face without rubbing.
  • Step 4: Allow the facial toner to dry before applying further skincare products.
