One of those products was toner. I used to use the Body Shop Grapefruit toner because I loved the smell, and I really enjoyed the clean, tingling feeling after. I had no idea why I was using it. I had no idea of the benefits until a couple years ago.
After you wash your face with said cleanser your PH balance is changed, even if you use a cleanser that works perfectly with your skin type. You need to use a toner to even it out and balance that change. It also has the benefits of putting the moisture back into your skin and shrinking pores. Try to stay away from harsh toners that contain alcohol, and instead go for neutral ones like rosewater.
A common misconception for applying toner is to put it on a cotton pad. You can do this but you lose a lot of product, and that is never a good thing. Instead, buy toners that are in spritz bottles or make your own by pouring the bottle into a container that has a spray nozzle.
I've been using the Eminence toniques for years and I LOVE them. They last forever and they come in the spray bottle.
TIP: Spray your face with the toner, and immediately apply your moisturizer. You'll find that you will use less product, and that's always a plus especially if you have expensive creams!
These are the toners I have (Rosehip for day, Wild Plum for night)
