Hi Everyone! Welcome back to my blog.
So, today i am going to tell you guys about toning. Toning is also done after cleansing. It is more like a finishing touch to cleansing.
Toning is like closing all your pores after you've cleaned them which the cold water might not have done. It soothes and calms your skin and prevents irritation. Makes a smooth base for serum or moisturizer. But there are a few things that you might not have known about toning, which i am going to tell you guys now, so keep reading to know.
As toning is just used as a finishing to touch to cleansing, many people feel that it is unnecessary and don't do it everyday. Some feel that it can be completely skipped. But it is very important to tone your face after cleansing and/or exfoliating. Toning is not just a finishing touch. It is a lot more than that.
Toning Closes your pores tight. It prevents oil production and excess sweating. Toning also soothes and calms your skin. Toning is very important, especially if you wear makeup. Since most of us do wear makeup, we gotta put in more skin care on our face before we let the makeup touch our face.
Before toning, i would suggest you to run an ice cube all over you face so that you can stay oil free for longer. Toning can also remove any cleanser residue or oil/makeup remover/ makeup residue from your skin. It is advisable to tone your face twice daily.
There are three kinds of toners.
Mild
These are the ones which are mostly used. They usually contain water and glycerin. They keep the moisture in the outermost layers of skin while shrink the appearance of your pores.
Tonic.
These are slightly strong. They a have a little bit of alcohol in them. You mostly find cleansing toners or exfoliating toners in this type.
Astringents.
These are the strongest types. These are mostly suitable for oily skinned beauties. Mostly you will treatment tonic in this type. They have a bit more alcohol than the other two type and it is not very natural and not recommended for people with sensitive skin.
The most common type of natural mild toner is rose water which is amazing. It works for almost all types of skins.
Make sure that your toner is always stored in the refrigerator rather than with the rest of your skin care. When toners are cold, they work even better and they will help prevent excess oil. Toners also balance the skin's PH level so it is advisable to use one right after you've cleansed before putting on any other product on your face.
There are different toners for different skin types.
If you have just normal skin, then you can use the regular mild ones.
If you have severe acne/acne prone skin then I would suggest that you use the cleansing or the exfoliating ones which will do a thorough job of cleaning your face while the properties of a toner work on your face.
If you have severe skin problems due to sun damage or premature aging, then there are some toners which are specially formulated for a specific skin issue.
If you have very very sensitive skin, then you need not use the harsh toners in the market. You can make one on your own.
Green tea bags.
Store the used green tea bags in the refrigerator for a day, and it directly can be used as a toner on your face. It is perfect for people with oily/combination skin.
Rose water.
Boil some rose petals in distilled and filter out the rose petals, and store the water in a small spray bottle. Store in the refrigerator. Make sure that you use it within a week or two.
You can make distilled water by boiling the water in a kettle and putting a bowl in it and close it with a lid and put ice cubes on the lid, for few minutes and you will get distilled water in the bowl.
Make sure that you put a moisturizer and sun-block on after your skin care if you want to protect your pampered skin. Without moisturizer and sun block, everything that you do earlier just goes to a waste. So never skip them.
So, that's it. It's all about the basic skin care.
I hope you found this post helpful. If you did, them make sure to share it with your friends and give it a '+1' Make sure to like our Facebook page and follow on twitter. :)
