There’s been a bit of a fad recently for just cutting out the toner in your beauty routine. Admittedly, it does feel like an extra hassle, and it’s certainly less vital than cleansing or moisturizing.
Yet, using a toner has all kinds of benefits, like getting rid of extra dirt beyond what even your cleanser does, prepping the skin to absorb your moisturizer, reducing the appearance of pores and restoring the pH balance to skin after cleansing. Beyond that, some toners even have added benefits, like taking care of dark spots or adding more moisture to the skin. Below are some of the best toners out there, both on the fancier end and in drugstore varieties.
