Weely Round Up - Facial Toners

When I was younger I never knew what toner was, I then used it to take my make up off instead of washing my face. During my crash course in skincare when I started working at Lush Cosmetics I finally found out what it is used for and why it is so important.
No matter what cleanser you use it will strip the natural oils from your face and toner helps to put those oils back in. It also helps to remove any left over cleanser on you skin. This is such an important step and I think it gets missed a lot in peoples skin care routines. So below I have rounded up my favourites for you to check out.



1) Lush: Tea tree water - This saved my life.  While I am lucky and don't get many pimples, I do have a very oily T zone. This beautiful Toner helps to balance the oils in your skin and prevent pimples. Using undiluted Tea tree oil on your skin is not recommended as it can be very drying for your skin. This toner is the perfect dilution and leaves the skin feeling clean and refreshed.

2) The Herb Farm: Rejuvenating facial mist - I need a lot of help to start my day in the morning and this toner with Rose and Ginseng toner really gets things moving. This facial mist not only wakes me up but my skin too. It looks so much brighter and more alive after use.

3) Now Solutions: Vitamin C and Acaci berry purifying toner - Another o f my favourites to use in the morning. This toner has a very citrus heavy scent, which in the middle of a cold dark winter really makes me happy. It has definitely brightened my skin

4) Humpherys: Citrus witch hazel - Can you see a running theme here? Again a beautiful citrus scent and amazing oil control as it contains Orange and Lemon oils. Witch hazel is great for clearing up the skin and tightening pores. One of my favourite low cost toner

5) Wild Ferns: Purifying toner - With Manuka honey you just know this toner is going to be good.  With added Aloe Vera and Witch hazel this toner is simply perfect. This toner balance oils, adds moisture and protects the skin all the same time. Miracle in a bottle.

Just remember, your toner should never contain alcohol as it really drys the skin.
What's your favourite?
