face toner for men

A daily skincare routine is important to cleanse and hydrate your face. The usual steps for a good morning routine are: cleansing, exfoliating, toning and hydration. Many men forget the face toner step.

In some cases a little face wash will be left behind in your pores or it will be too aggressive for your skin. In that case a face toner can help you out for an extra cleansing and it restores the PH balance of your skin.

A face toner is best for men with impure skin, oily skin or when you experience acne.

If you have a pretty good skin, then you can even replace your face wash by a face toner. Especially if you work indoors most days.

When you want to do all the steps for the best skincare routine, then the order will look like this:

  1. Face wash/facial cleanser
  2. Face scrub
  3. Face toner
  4. Serum
  5. Moisturizer

Benefits of a face toner

A face toner basically provides an extra layer of cleansing while nourishing your skin. When you have oily skin, which you will recognize by having a shiny forehead or acne, then a face toner can help you to reduce impurities and oily skin.

So, it helps to make your skin less oily and it will also help to make your skin less shiny after applying a moisturizer. Red spots and irritation will also be reduced.

If you use a skin serum then a face toner helps your skin to absorb the serum better. Also moisturizers and day creams are better absorbed if you use a face toner prior applying a hydration product.

And the last benefit of a face toner is that it unclogs pores and prevents ingrown hairs.

When should you NOT use a face toner?

Do you have really dry skin? In that case a face toner could prove a little bit too much for you. Be careful that you use a face toner for dry, so that your skin will not be stripped of its moisture.

A face or skin toner can still be useful for you if you have sensitive skin or if you return from work with dirty looking skin. When you work outside a lot this is very possible.

How to use a face toner properly?

If you are not sure what skin type you have, it is best to start using a face toner maybe once or twice a week. That why you can find out how your skin is reacting to it.

In that case you could try smaller size products or travel sizes so that you are not wasting your money on full size products if the product was not suitable for your skin after all.

Do you still experience skin issues after trying some face toners? In that case it could be useful to visit a dermatologist or cosmetologist for personal advice.
