The benefits of using a toner daily

Using a toner daily can have multiple benefits. A facial toner is a product that is meant to refresh your skin in a gentle way without irritating or drying it. It is also the better way to prepare your skin for your moisturizer or any other product that you might apply after cleansing your skin.

A face toner should be the second step in any skincare routine. You should use it after cleansing your skin, as it will help to clean out your pores and to remove dirt and impurities. After applying your toner, you can apply your serum, moisturizer or skin treatment.

Some people think that they don’t need to use a toner as part of their daily skincare routine because their skin doesn’t need. However, the truth is that there are toners for all skin types – from dry and sensitive skin to oily skin. And more, using a toner daily can benefit everyone. So, what are the benefits of this skincare product?

A toner helps to remove makeup and oil

One of the main reasons why we should use a toner daily is that it helps to remove any bits of makeup left on our skin after cleansing it. It also removes dirt and excess oil, which might clog pores and cause breakouts.

It is very important to always choose a toner depending on your skin type and your skin needs. If you have oily or acne-prone skin, for example, using a toner that contains salicylic acid will help to remove oil and reduce shine. Remember that, even though a facial toner can be used to remove makeup or dirt, you should always start your skincare routine by cleaning your face with a cleanser.

It is refreshing

A facial toner is a very refreshing product which will feel amazing on your face. It can also have an anti-inflammatory effect and provide a more radiant look.

It minimizes the appearance of pores and reduces acne

A facial toner can help your skin by giving it a more refreshing and luminous appearance. Removing excess oil and deep-cleansing your skin, it can also minimize the appearance of pores. By tightening your pores, a facial toner can also reduce the appearance of acne and breakouts, caused by dirt and oils that enter the skin.

Besides, there are toners formulated specifically for acne-prone skin which, in addition to preventing acne in the future, can also help to reduce the appearance of blemishes and even to improve acne scars.

Using a toner daily helps to prepare and hydrate your skin

As we have mentioned, there are several types of facial toners. They are specifically designed for different skin types and formulated to target different skin issues: dry skin, acne scars, breakouts, sensitivity or large pores, among others.

A toner will help your skin to absorb your skincare products better by providing some hydration. If your skin is dry, it won’t be able to absorb moisturizing products properly. Therefore, using a toner will be beneficial, as it will prepare your face for the rest of your skincare routine. So, using a toner daily will help your skin to absorb your moisturizer and look more healthy and luminous. Remember that keeping your skin hydrated is really important to maintain its elasticity and to reduce possible anti-ageing signs. Moreover, some toners are specifically formulated with hydrating ingredients to provide some extra moisture for the skin.

Some toners have anti-ageing properties

Did you know that using a toner daily can also be an anti-ageing treatment? One of the best things about toners is that you can pick one based specifically on your preferences, skin type and needs. Some facial toners, such as those containing vitamin C, are specifically formulated to reduce the appearance of fine lines.

It balances the pH levels

Sometimes cleansers or other skincare products can affect our skin’s pH levels. Using a toner daily is a quick and effective way of balancing pH levels. As a result, our skin will appear smooth and glowy.

How to choose a facial toner that is suitable for your skin type

Toners with different ingredients and formulations are designed to target different skin issues. This means that you should always choose a toner depending on your skin type and your skin needs. Here are some tips to choose a toner that is suitable for your skin:

• – If you have sensitive skin, we recommend a very mild toner, alcohol-free, as it can irritate the skin. A toner with antioxidant ingredients and anti-inflammatory properties might be suitable for your skin type.
• – If your skin is dry, we recommend a toner with moisturizing ingredients and properties. Avoid ingredients that can cause dryness or irritation, such as alcohol.
• – If you have normal skin, you can opt for a refreshing toner or a hydrating one. You can also combine both, depending on the season.
• – If you have combination skin, you should choose a toner which helps to absorb oils whilst adding some hydration to the skin.
• – As for oily or acne-prone skin, the best option is to choose a toner that will remove excess oil and minimize the appearance of pores, without being too irritating or drying.
• – Toners with hydrating and antioxidant properties are a great option for mature skin.
