Do You Need a Toner in Your Skincare Routine?
July 21, 2023
Curious if your skincare routine could benefit from a toner? This step in a daily skincare regimen is usually the first one to be skipped, as toners have an outdated reputation of serving solely to “prep” the skin for a barrier-compromising product that will strip your skin of its natural oils.
But today, this simple product can complete any skincare routine and help your skin barrier exude more radiance and hydration. As your protective shield to the outside world, your skin barrier is the secret to having a beautiful complexion and incorporating just one simple product into your daily regimen can have amazing benefits!
How Toners Help
Think of toners as supplemental boosters. Everyone can take advantage of this little extra step that goes a long way. Wondering about the specific benefits of toners? Here are a few.
- Toners help remove residual dirt, oil, and makeup after cleansing. This comes in especially handy if you’ve worn heavier makeup or engaged in strenuous outdoor activities.
- Toners prepare skin for serums and moisturizers by providing a clean foundation.
- Toners help address “secondary” concerns. For example, if wrinkles or uneven skin tone are your main issue, you can include an Epionce toner to help reduce the visible signs of problematic skin without adding a blemish-targeting serum to your anti-aging routine.
- Did you know? Toners aren’t just for the face! You can spray an Epionce toner to soothe visible signs of redness or soothe uncomfortable skin.
Balancing Vs. Purifying Toner
Our Balancing Toner removes any traces of dirt, oil and makeup and other surface impurities gently without damaging the skin or causing unnecessary dryness. A concentrated blend of botanical extracts and humectants refine texture and give the skin a surge of moisture. It is both alcohol-free and pH balanced. It’s the perfect hydrating mist for both face and body.
Our Purifying Toner also helps to remove traces of dirt, oil and makeup. And its botanical ingredients work to reduce surface shine while helping control factors that can lead to the visible appearance of problem or irritated skin. It’s ideal as a body spray for blemishes. A toner should feature specific ingredients that keep skin balanced and happy, such as cucumber and marsh mallow root extracts. Our toners also contain willow bark extract, a botanical form of salicylic acid that helps diminish and prevent the appearance of blemishes.
How to apply your Epionce toner? Simple! Use it with a cotton pad or spray onto clean skin. No need to rinse.
Even with a consistent skin care regimen that works for your skin concerns, sometimes adding one simple product can have visible benefits. Try an Epionce toner to round out your skincare routine for that extra bit of glow and radiance!
