Toner

Skin type and toner - how to choose the right one?

How does a toner work?

The toner prepares the skin for the next steps of skincare. Enhances the effect of creams, serums and lotions.

Water molecules transport nutrients deeper into the skin, so moist skin absorbs them more intensively.

The toner evens out the pH of the skin.

Skin pH - 5. Cleansing cosmetics, which we use before toner, are more alkaline. Thus, the task of the product is to compensate for the difference in pH and restore balance.

The toner refreshes the skin.

Toner is not used to cleanse the face. There are gels, foams and micellar water for cleansing the skin.

The best facial toner

The traditional division of cosmetics into dry, oily and normal skin does not always work, as different skin types can have similar problems. Therefore, it is worth asking what effect you want to achieve, and accordingly look for the right product. Are you looking for hydration, radiance or maybe a matte effect? You will find the right toner for every skin need.

Who is a moisturizing toner suitable for?

Moisturizing toner suitable for all skin types. Whether you have dry, oily, combination or normal skin, moisturizing is the first step in any skincare routine. These types of products also most often have a calming effect, which will appeal to owners of sensitive and redness-prone skin. Moisturizing toners can also be used all year round.

What is Matte Toner?

Mattifying toners are especially recommended for oily and combination skin. However, it is worth remembering that these types of cosmetics are in no way connected with old toners, in which alcohol was in the first place in the composition. Instead, mattifying toners often contain niacinamide or green tea extract, which regulate sebum production and reduce skin shine.
