Toners

Daily, AM + PM
(Exfoliating toners: 2–4x/week depending on skin)

What They Are

A lightweight liquid step used after cleansing to rehydrate the skin, support barrier health, and enhance absorption of what comes next.

Why It Matters

Toners help replenish moisture lost during cleansing and prepare your skin to receive serums and treatments. The right toner can calm inflammation, reinforce lipids, and prevent irritation from actives or exfoliants.

Skin Approved Picks

Hydrating Toners

Focus on drawing moisture into the skin using humectants like glycerin or hyaluronic acid, often while supporting the lipid barrier. Misting is good for sensitive or overstimulated skin, or it can be pressed in with clean hands to layer hydration without disruption.
