Hydrating Toner

Treat your skin to a good dose of hydration and include a hydrating toner in your daily routine. It’s a small step that can make a big difference – your skin will be fresh, soft and comfortable.

What is a hydrating toner used for?

The main purpose of a hydrating toner is to deliver water to the skin and help it retain moisture. Depending on the specific formula you choose, it can:

• hydrate your skin,
• soothe and help prevent feelings of tightness and dryness,
• help restore the skin barrier,
• help rebalance the skin after cleansing,
• soften and refresh the skin without a greasy feeling.

What ingredients does a hydrating toner contain?

Hydrating toners work thanks to a clever combination of ingredients that hydrate the skin intensely. These can include, for instance:

Moisturising ingredients:

• glycerine,
• hyaluronic acid,
• urea,
• betaine.

Soothing and refreshing ingredients:

• panthenol,
• allantoin,
• aloe vera,
• centella asiatica.

Ingredients that support the skin barrier:

• ceramides,
• fatty acids,
• niacinamide.

How do you use a hydrating toner on your face?

Use a hydrating facial toner after cleansing your skin and before applying serum or cream – usually in the morning and evening. If you have sensitive skin, applying it once a day is enough.

Put a few drops of toner in your palms or on a cotton pad and gently pat it onto your face and neck. Do not rinse. For dry skin, you can layer the toner (2–3 thin layers).

Tip: Apply the toner to slightly damp skin – this helps lock in moisture even better.
