By now we all know the importance of cleansing our skin after a day of "attacks" from ourselves and others: pollution, makeup, our own hands...
Having discipline every night with the cleansing routine will not only allow our skin to look healthy for longer, but it will also help enormously to prevent premature aesthetic aging or, for example, the appearance of the dreaded acne.
That said, and now that we are all nodding and thinking that for some time now (some of us for longer) we have gotten down to business and fully comply with this daily “removal of makeup,” we would like to talk about facial tonic.
Yes, the tonic. That step as unknown to some as important to others. And, although it may not be your case, there are still many doubts about the usefulness of this cosmetic. Let's try to resolve them in four basic questions.
When do you apply a facial toner?
The toner is the step that comes after having cleansed your skin, for example with cleansing milk, and before applying the moisturizing cream. Remember that before moving on to the cream, we must allow the tonic to be completely absorbed or eliminated.

Why is facial toner so important?
Because it is responsible for eliminating that last bit of dirt on our skin, along with the remains of the previous product that we have used for cleaning. In addition, the facial toner hydrates, helps to close the pores and thus prepares the skin for the next product that we are going to apply.
Is the toner a product only for women?
No, of course not. The facial toner is highly recommended for any facial cleansing, including men's. In fact, it is also a great substitute if you don't like using after-shave.
What if I don't have time? Is there no alternative to facial toner?
There is always an alternative, because the products have to be there to make our lives easier and adapt to our circumstances, and not the other way around.
A good option if you don't have time is to use Micellar Water. These types of products remove makeup and clean the skin without the need to rinse. Comfortable, right? But Micellar Water also has a toning effect that can replace the tonic the times you don't want to or can't go to this step.
In another post we will talk about everything related to Micellar Water and what surrounds this type of product, since it is something to fill an entire entry.
In short, put a facial toner in your life. You will notice the difference. And then come tell us about it on the blog!
Until the next entry. Do not forget to leave your comments.
