Toner (skin care)
Type of cosmetics / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In cosmetics, skin toner or simply toner refers to a lotion, tonic or wash designed to cleanse the skin and shrink the appearance of pores, usually used on the face. It also moisturizes, protects and refreshes the skin.[1] Toners can be applied to the skin in different ways:
- On a cotton round or ball. (This is the most frequently used method.)
- Spraying onto the face.
- By applying a tonic gauze facial mask—a piece of gauze is covered with toner and left on the face for a few minutes.

Some toners may cause some irritation to the skin upon their initial use. Users often apply serum and moisturizer after the toner has dried.
