Why is it that those brands like Garnier for men, olay for men or even gilette mostly comes with cleanser and moisturizers only without an option for pore tightening toners?

Any good toners to recommend. Currently using garnier for men range cleanser.

Hey guys, need some help here.

Im currently using Avene cleanser, just started using it, and also the thermal water as a substitute for toner.

I was wondering whether to get a toner since i kinda need to tighten my pores. I was thinking of getting the lotion/cream to rid off black heads and white heads, since i do have lots of black heads on my nose biggrin.gif

So should i get the toner or the blackhead remover-thingy first?

thanx  in advance guys smile.gif

Toners r really optional. Thermal water shud be good enuf la as a toner. Try using a clay mask/aspirin mask 2 times a week to get rid/prevent black heads.

Coz toners r optional n can always be skipped. If ur skip is really oily then u could add in a toner to ur skin care routine.

BTW, i would like to share my own experience. I do have many pimples on my face and i tend to scratch it when i was young.maybe like 15-16.then I bought the Skin Solution + O2 products and I used like 16-18.Then I totally stop using this product when I feel this product contains high chemical ingredients especially the skin solution that contains 5% of benzoyl peroxide. and even dyed a few of my clothes punya colour. Then, I start to realized what I just used from the past. 

So,I moved to dermalogica,skin food,simple,st ives,and now I am using Garnier for men.I start to feel dry after washing my face using this. I even used the Hada Labo moisturing lotion. I still wonder.Should I stop using the garnier immediately while waiting for me to finish using it and buy another product. It seems like It's hard for me to decide after using so many products. Not so sure about the other expensive products. Any suggestions for me??

Other than the Hada Labo lotion do u use any other kind of moisturizing product daily ?

If it ain't too bad just leave it and it will go away on it's own.

I bet u dun use sunscreen thats y even after a few yrs the scars r still there. U can get many cheap light sunscreens from pharmacies.

Use sunscreen daily to stop the scars fr gettin deeper n darker.

Use a whitening serum to help fade the scars.

Use a moisturizer after cleansing n the tight feeling will go away faster.

Your skin is already sensitive so there is no need to use a toner. If u still want to use one...try the Avene THermal Spring Water Spray as a toner. After cleansing spray a bit over face, leave for 30 seconds to 1 minute n pat dry with hands.

definitely of course the scarring is much more minimal. the scarring will take longer to fade if u r in the sun a lot without sunscreen.

Also depends on the severity of your acne n ur overall skin health.

The way u take care of ur face also plays a role. If u use proper products them the scarring will be less severe.

The type of acne medication u apply also is a factor. Benzoyl peroxide is very effective against acne but tends to leave dark marks after the pimple has subsided.

Ok.

both seem to be more for calming the pimple rather than treating it.

Kiehl's Dermatologist Solutions has a pretty good pimple cream. but it's pretty pricey...RM110 for 30ml. if its within ur budget u can try that. there r cheaper equivalent products at pharmacies but the finish is horrible...sticky n shiny. Kiehl's when dry is non sticky n shiny..dats y i recommend it.
