A toner is usually the middle step in your routine. After cleansing, you apply your toner while your skin is still damp (spray directly on your skin, or apply with a cotton round), and follow it quickly with your favorite moisturizer or facial oil. The toner hydrates your skin, and topping it with a cream or an oil helps your skin retain that moisture. Our Purely Calm Gel Toner is a fan-favorite, and we hope you've had a chance to try it! But if you're feeling creative or like a DIY project from time to time, how about making one of these toners at home? You’ll need a clean glass or aluminum bottle, and one of the recipes below!
Toner for dull or congested skin
Toner for dry skin
Toner for normal to acne-prone skin
What about witch hazel, you say? If you can find witch hazel hydrosol, use it to make a lovely toner! But most witch hazel on the market is high in alcohol, which is why we didn’t use it in any of our recipes. Alcohol-based toners are drying to most skin types, so we’ll stick with aloe and tea!
