How To Tone Your Skin

To tone your skin is really an extension of cleansing your skin.  Your toner can be used morning or night, or any time you wash your face.  The pH of a cleanser depends on the type of cleanser, your gels are normally more acidic and your lotions and creams more alkaline.  This is necessary for a cleanser to remove the debris and dirt on your skin.  The normal pH of your skin is between 4.5 to 6.5.  After cleansing, a toner will restore your skin to its balanced pH.

A toner assists with the following:

1. Remove all traces of your cleanser that you were trying to wash away.
2. Hydrate your skin.
3. Restore your skin’s pH balance.

How to tone:  You can either wipe or mist with toner.  When you like to wipe remember to wipe or pat in an UPWARD movement.  You can also spray toner into the palm of your hand and apply it almost like a serum, this is great when your skin needs extra hydration.

I can sincerely vouch that I have seen a HUGE improvement in my skin when I added a toner to my skin care regime.
