Toning

Toners are used after cleansing the Skin to freshen it up and remove any traces of cleanser, mask or Makeup, as well to help restore the skin's natural pH. They are usually applied to a cotton pad and wiped over the skin, but can also be sprayed onto the skin from a spray bottle.
Toners typically contain alcohol, water, and herbal extracts or other chemicals depending on skin type. Toners containing alcohol are quite astringent, and usually targeted at oily skins. Dry or normal skin should be treated with alcohol-free toners. Witch hazel solution is a popular toner for all skin types, but many other Products are available. Many toners also contain salicylic acid and/or benzyl peroxide. These types of toners are also targeted at oily skin types, as well as acne-prone skin.
