Is Face Toner Necessary?

Updated: Nov 12

It took me years to understand the benefits of using a toner. Toners are meant to be used after washing, before moisturizing. Toner can remove residue left behind after cleansing. However, with our Cleansing Oil and Foaming Face Wash you will find there is no residue.


Our toner is designed to be sprayed on and left to dry. You can spray it on a cotton ball or pad and wipe your face with it if you do prefer this application.


I personally do not think toners with alcohol are good for the skin. I prefer using Witch Hazel. It has antibacterial properties without being too harsh on skin. Witch hazel helps to tighten the skin and constrict tissues, which temporarily minimizes the look of enlarged pores.


Another ingredient we use instead of alcohol or water is hydrosol. Very simply, a hydrosol is the water that is distilled with an essential oil. Lavender hydrosol is highly effective at calming skin irritations, redness, and inflammation. It can provide relief from conditions like sunburn, rashes, and eczema. It works as a natural hydrator, replenishing moisture in the skin and leaving it feeling refreshed and revitalized. It can be used throughout the day as a facial mist for a quick boost of moisture. It's also rich in antioxidants that help combat free radicals, which are responsible for premature aging, potentially reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles with regular use.


Hibiscus contains natural AHAs (such as malic and citric acid) that gently remove dead skin cells, promoting cell turnover and revealing a fresher, smoother complexion without stripping the skin of its natural oils. Often called the "Botox plant," hibiscus is rich in antioxidants like anthocyanins and vitamin C, which help fight free radicals and reduce oxidative stress that causes premature aging. These compounds also help to inhibit the breakdown of elastin, leading to firmer, tighter, and more elastic skin. The exfoliating properties and control over melanin production help to fade dark spots, hyperpigmentation, and age spots, resulting in a more even and radiant skin tone.


Camu camu contains a very high concentration of natural vitamin C, which helps inhibit melanin production, effectively fading dark spots, hyperpigmentation, and acne scars, leading to a more radiant and even complexion. Its rich antioxidant profile, including flavonoids and polyphenols, helps neutralize free radicals caused by UV exposure, pollution, and stress, which can cause premature aging and a dull complexion. This shielding effect helps prevent further skin damage. Vitamin C is a crucial component in collagen production, which helps maintain the skin's elasticity, firmness, and smooth texture, thereby reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.


As you can see, it's worth the time it takes to mist a couple sprays of our Face Toner each day!

It can be use before moisturizer and after moisturizer!
