Hi girls, wanna ask some ques about toner .. which we use for our face after cleansing everyday..

1) Toner is a MUST? what if i skip it?

2) Is there any possibility that toner will create more pimples?

Actually i start using a set of skin care since 2months + ago, but my face tend to grow more pimples easily..it will still go away after few days.. and grow a new one again.. but i don't know what's the problem.. mayb my skin is adapting to new product? or my face doesn't suit it at all? i got no idea..

Recently, my sister finish her toner.. so she use mine. Her face grow few pimples after few days using it.. so i really wondering it is toner that cause it?

I never heard of toner will cause pimples anyway

thanks alot for your advise and help

Here's the ingredient for my toner:

Toner is essential for our skin but it's also important that you use a toner suitable for your skin. Some toners are too harsh causing sensitivity, rashes or acne. Basically, like moisturiser, it has to suite your skin.

Hmm, basically i have blemish and acne prone skin. do you have any recommendation on toner?. i thinking of trying the tea tree toner from body shop..

My current toner is like mist type ( spray), the 1st time i used.. i spray.. then my skin feel bit pain.. after that i use cotton bud already.. then no more problem..

i read many places they say toner not important wor.. just syiok only

Toner is fairly important, in my opinion. It has two important functions -- it removes any excess cleanser which you haven't already washed off as well as any dirt/grime which your cleanser hasn't already removed, AND it functions as a medium for better skin absorption of your moisturizer. This is also the reason why we are advised to apply moisturizer on toner-damp skin.

I'm currently using Body Shop's Seaweed toner and I think it rocks. Leaves a cooling effect on your face. I've never tried the Tea Tree Oil one, so I can't really give any comments on that, but why don't you look for some reviews online?

Oh, i look reviews online already.. but rarely reviews on toner..

Dear,

The purpose of toner is completes the cleansing process by effectively removing residual make-up, dirt and cleanser, without tightening, drying or stripping the skin, leaving a natural glow.

It is important to use toner and followed by moisturizer especially before you go to sleep.These steps must follow into steps in order to have a fresh skin early morning. Promise. Anything just ask me because I am ARTISTRY user.

Thanks for your info.. what will happen if i skip it?
artistry is a brand for skin care and comestic product?

Why don't you try not using the toner for a week or so and see how your skin feels. Toner is important but not everybody may need it. Also you said that your sister used your toner and developed pimples..sounds like might be your toner's problem, maybe too moisturising?

Hmm, mayb.. cuz my oner there is written "toner/ moisture" .. and i got another moisuturizer too..
will try not to use and c how

I have acne prone skin few years back and I keep using formula like tea trees, acne fighting type toner and skincare but only irritates my skin. After I changed to mild or hydrating type, my skins gets better. Actually tea trees are very strong...

Hmm, which type of toner is mild and hydrate? Im using few product from tea tree wo.. still quite okie lor.. better than i use my current product..
but not using toner now anymore.. searching for good 1 now..

I'm using Simple Toner now (green transparent bottle), sorry I forgot the full name cause I've finished mine last week and still haven't go to buy a new one yet. Got to do it later. The normal price is about RM17.90.

Eucerin hydrating toner is good too but more expensive at around RM30.

As a poster had said above.

Toner are important for a few reasons, but these are the key reasons:
1) Removing excess make ups that you previously uses
2) Exercising the skin layers to allow better absorption rate.

Very few people are unaware that you have to wipe the skin on your face twice. (Wipe up once, and switch to a new cotton ball and wipe it down)
However, the skin area on the neck MUST be wiped up and only once.

I've tried quite a few cleanser, but I've been using Preme : Natural Toner for nearly a year now. It's soft, at least I dont feel rashes or the likes.

Do enjoy

牛爾說：很多人常誤解，因為出油，所以不使用保濕乳液，怕會更油，因而使表皮中的水份無法停留，隨著空氣散失，促使皮脂線分泌更多油脂來幫助肌膚鎖水，形成一個惡性循環，因此油性肌膚還是需要保濕的，才能使肌膚達到油水平衡的狀態。如果覺得使用保濕乳液還是會有油膩感，可以改用保濕凝膠或保濕精華液來替代，至於較乾冷的冬天，則可以改成清爽一點的保濕乳液，好達到保濕鎖水的功效。

So must use toner.

pm me if u r interested. i'm not only distributor but also user of forever living products. ^^~

toner gives what your skin needs and if u use the wrong toner it gives the wrong things then cause problems.
haha just my craps

i m a beauty consultant..i think ur face cannot use toner la..muz use freshener...tis is without alcohol wan.a.u can try mary kay freshener..botanical series...coz it use all natural ingredient..sensitive skin oso can use..very very safe..summore 100 percent guarantee...

how do u tell whether toner is moisturizing or exfoliiating?

one more function of toner is, according to kiehl's beauty advisor, it's to help in balancing the pH of our skin. the water that we use is not pH balance; hence toner can help to do that.
