Toning is a part of  cleansing process which removes

any remaining bits of dirt,oil left behind after cleansing.

The purpose of toner is to cleanse & refine pores giving u an 

even skin tone.

Why is toner important?

The alkaline nature of soap & some cleansers disturbes the 

pH balance of skin while a toner works to maintain & restore

the pH balance of our skin.

. A toner helps to soothe,nourish & hydrate the skin after 

cleansing.

.A good toner can help close pores and tighten them after 

cleansing thus reducing the penetration of impurities into our

skin.

.Humectants toners helps to bind moisture to the skin 

                        

                  Toners according to skin type.

properties

hydrating & moisturizing properties

.Sensitive skin should look for ingredients which soothe skin 

& reduce inflammation.

A moisturizer increases moisture level of the outermost layer

(stratum corneum) of our skin prevent it from drying out.

from cracks,dryness & dullness.Moisturizer are complex
