Toner is a skincare product that is used after cleansing and before moisturizing. It is a water-based liquid that can contain various ingredients such as acids, glycerin, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatories
. The purpose of toner is to remove any last traces of dirt, grime, and impurities stuck in your pores after washing your face, and to prime the skin for other skincare products
. Toner can also help to refine rough patches, improve skin tone, and temporarily tighten the skin to create a smoother overall appearance
. It can be especially beneficial for those with oily skin, acne-prone skin, or those who wear makeup, as it can help to clean out and close-up pores
. Toner is meant to gently refresh the skin without stripping it of its natural moisture, so it won't irritate sensitive skin or cause excessive dryness
