Why You Should Be Using a Facial Toner

Toner is one skincare product we’ve all been guilty of skipping. Some people think it’s an unnecessary second cleanse. In reality, it can level up your skincare routine and unlock your inner radiance. Whatever your skin type is, you can benefit from adding a toner as the second step of your skincare routine. We’re running you through some of the benefits of using an organic toner. Trust us. Your skin will thank you for it!

 

Your toner acts in part as a second cleansing step, catching any makeup residue that your cleanser missed. You want your skin to be as clean as possible to help it absorb the active ingredients in your creams and serums. It can also help remove any leftover dirt, impurities, or dead skin cells.

 

Using a toner is essential for your summer skincare routine or if you live in a warmer climate. Sweat can mix with the dirt and impurities on your skin and lead to more breakouts. Your toner is your best defense against a summer of acne breakouts.

 

If you have oily skin, toners are ideal for removing excess sebum that clogs your pores and leads to breakouts. Using a toner will also reduce the shine on your skin by balancing your pH levels. This factor is essential for every skin type as your ideal pH level is 5.5. Cleansers can often throw it off balance, especially if your skin is on the drier side. 

 

Whether you’re worried about premature ageing or oxidative stress, using a toner may help cleanse and tighten your pores. You’ll have a smoother texture and a visibly brighter complexion. If you’re looking to create the appearance of a dewy glow, your toner is the best way to achieve it.

 

What draws most people to toners is their ability to add an extra layer of hydration to your skin. Our Witch Hazel and Lavender facial toner is infused with Jojoba Oil and Organic Coconut Oil that nourish your skin and improve moisture levels. Keeping your skin hydrated is the secret to preventing breakouts, uneven skin texture, and free radical damage. 

 

If you think your skincare routine is missing something, it’s likely to be a toner! You want to add it as the second step of your regime after cleansing and before using facial oils and serums. Finish off your routine with a moisturizer to lock in all the active ingredients and moisture.
