What is a toner?
A toner is an essential step in the Korean skincare routine, although many people think of it as part of cleansing. After cleansing the skin with an oil- and water-based cleanser, toner adds moisture and nourishment, helping to restore the skin's natural pH and preparing the skin for the next steps of care.
Why use a toner?
A toner helps maintain a healthy skin barrier by adding moisture and nutrients after cleansing. All skin types can benefit from a toner as it adds much-needed hydration. For dry skin, a thicker toner is more appropriate, while oily skin will benefit from a lighter formula.
How to apply toner?
Toners can be applied with a cotton pad or using the palms of your hands, gently patting the product into the skin. A mist is a convenient version of a toner that can be easily sprayed onto the skin, especially useful on the go for quick hydration.
Types of toners:
- Impure skin : Toners with ingredients that balance oil levels and gentle exfoliation to remove dead skin cells.
- Dry skin : Moisturizing toners with ingredients like hyaluronic acid and provitamin B5 for long-lasting hydration.
- Irritated skin : Toners with anti-inflammatory ingredients like glycerin and centella that hydrate and soothe the skin.
