Skincare 101 - The Importance of a Toner


It seems that most people often skip using a toner in their skincare routine. However, it is one of the more important steps required. Cleanse, tone and moisturize is the basics for keeping our skin happy and healthy.

Toners are used to restore the pH balance in your skin. Cleansers usually strip the skin of natural oils and distort the pH balance inside your skin. It may take your skin up to one hour to restore the acid/alkaline balance! By using a toner, it restores the pH level in your skin instantly.

When purchasing toners, try to choose one for your skin type. Try to avoid alcohol-based toners as they dry the skin.

Some toners I would recommend include:
Kuan Yuan Lin – Cucumber Water

JUJU Cosmetics - Aquamoist Hyaluronic Acid Moisture Toner
