"Is a Toner really necessary?" I hear you saying.
The toners of today are entirely different from the toners of the past. Where it used to be the job of a toner to remove the pore-clogging residue leftover from cleansing, we now have toners that protect the skin, increase product absorption and deliver results.
Dermalogica toners spritz the skin with moisture, whilst treating specific skin challenges such as hydration, sensitivity and skin ageing.
Why should I use a Toner/Mist?
A toner will allow for more effective and even product absorbption.
Your skin absorbs and retains more moisture when its damp. So, when you spritz your skin with toner and immediately apply your next steps of skincare, your skin will absorbs these products more readily.
What's more, applying a spritz toner prevents thirsty or dry pathces so you wont need to use as much product. Overlooking a toner in your daily skincare regimen means you’ll use more of your finishing products, plus, they won’t work as well as they could.
Your toner will be your new best friend
Why? Whenever you need a skin pick me up, moisture boost, or simply to refresh your make-up, grab your Dermalogica toner and spritz away. This function makes them the perfect companion for anyone who finds themselves in an environment that sucks away moisture from their skin such as flying, central heating and air conditioning. And in the hot climates and months, you can pop your toner in the fridge overnight for an uber-cooling and refreshing dose of moisture.
