A good toner is a non-alcohol refresher that helps take away the residue of all the preceding procedures. It refines the pores and tautens and tones the skin, making it prepared for moisturizing treatment.
Though, because most after shaves are primarily made of alcohol and perfume, they damage the skin by disturbing the revival of the mantle that is destroyed by shaving soap and razor blade. The alcohol will further dry the skin.
Rather than such abrasive products, try using mild astringents or essential oil mists. Apply toner with a cotton ball or spray on with a hand pump mister.
Try one of the following toners, selecting one on the basis of your skin condition.
- For NORMAL skin, unite witch hazel with an equal amount of an herbal tea or floral water. Suitable herb teas comprise comfrey, elder flower, or rosemary. Nothing tops really high quality rose water.
- For DRY skin, use pure rose water.
- For OILY skin, use tulasi water or a mixture of equal amounts of witch hazel with cilantro, fennel, dead nettle, or yarrow tea.
- For MATURE skin, use pure rose water.
- For BLEMISHED skin, use equal amounts of witch hazel with either tulasi or rose water.
