The Best Toner for Every Skin Type

If your skin has the tendency to get shiny, the clay in Fresh's toner does wonders for getting rid of excess oil. The ingredient works like a vacuum to suck dirt and impurities out of pores without leaving skin dry.  

This toner keeps skin balanced so that you're never too oily or too dry. In turn, your pores will be clear and you'll be less likely to breakout. For existing blemishes, the formula is infused with phytic acid, a natural exfoliant that soothes inflammation and fades old acne marks.  

Using a toner on skin that's already pretty dry may seem counterintuitive, so in this case, try an essence instead, which should be patted directly onto clean skin rather than swiped over the surface with a cotton ball. Erborian's ginseng-rich formula hydrates skin, but also improves skin texture and tone. 

Give your other anti-aging products an extra boost by using SK-II's cult-favorite essence as the step before your serum and moisturizer. Its hero ingredient is pitera, a clear liquid rich in vitamins and amino acids that's found in sake during the fermenting process. Pitera kick starts the skin's natural repairing process which will reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and dark spots. 

Whether brought on by sun damage or post-acne marks, the infusion of ginseng and mulberry root in this gel-based toner will help to fade any hyperpigmentation without drying out your complexion.
