Some ideas about Toner. If your skin has multiple concerns
Here are some ideas about toner, covering various aspects like types, benefits, and DIY options:
Types of Toners
1. Hydrating Toners: These usually contain ingredients like hyaluronic acid or glycerin to boost moisture levels in the skin.
Exfoliating Toners: Often formulated with AHAs (alpha hydroxy acids) or BHAs (beta hydroxy acids), these help remove dead skin cells and promote cell turnover.
3. Astringent Toners: Typically containing witch hazel or alcohol, these are great for oily or acne-prone skin, as they help to tighten pores and control excess oil.
4. Soothing Toners: Formulated with calming ingredients like chamomile or aloe vera, these are ideal for sensitive skin to reduce redness and irritation.
5. Brightening Toners: Often enriched with vitamin C or licorice extract, these help to improve skin tone and luminosity.
Benefits of Using Toner
pH Balance: Helps restore skin’s natural pH after cleansing.
Pore Minimization: Tightens and refines the appearance of pores.
Hydration: Provides an extra layer of moisture, especially beneficial for dry skin.
Prep for Other Products: Enhances the absorption of serums and moisturizers applied afterward.

### DIY Toner Ideas
