A good toner should come through with the promise of firmer skin; but how exactly do these products achieve the return of the tight skin that you once had? The key to a good toner is having water as the first ingredient. While other ingredients can help achieve toned skin, skin first needs to be moisturized with water.
Unsure which toning products have water as their #1 ingredient. Here are a few:
SkinMedica Rejuvenative Toner
SkinMedica Rejuvenative Toner contains a special combination of alpha-hydroxy acids, green tea, willow bark, witch hazel, and chamomilla recutita to gently exfoliate the skin, remove dirt and impurities while restoring pH balance and refining the skin. The formula is appropriate for normal to dry skin types.
Hydropeptide Pre-Treatment Toner
Hydropeptide Pre-Treatment Toner uses lactic acid and orange stem cell extract to gently exfoliate the skin, brighten it, and reduce the appearance of fine lines, and wrinkles. You’ll notice an even out skin tone and no overdrying. This product removes excess makeup residue as well as pollutants and is safe to use day and night.
Avène Thermal Spring Water
Avène Thermal Spring Water has been used since 1743 and it’s been proven by over 150 studies that it calms, soothes and softens the skin. Its calming capabilities include soothe red and irritated skin, and eliminating the urge to itch. It’s also rich in trace elements and has a neutral pH which helps restore skin balance and the epidermal barrier (the most superficial layer of the skin).
