Why a toning lotion is your skin’s best friend

Toning lotions are water-based products enhanced with a range of active ingredients, such as precious botanical extracts, each with its own beneficial properties. According to Uniprix, some of the most popular toning lotions contain natural ingredients including:

• Camomile (for softening and soothing sensitive or dry skin)
• Rose (especially good for toning)
• Tea (especially good for toning)
• Iris (astringent: for tightening pores)
• Witch hazel (astringent, decongestant, purifying)

Role of toning lotion

• Removes impurities (pollutants, makeup residue, traces of makeup remover, sebum)
• Stimulates (yes, it tones!) and refreshes skin
• Prepares skin for moisturizers (day and night creams)
• Balances skin’s natural pH level

Toning lotion leaves skin:

• Purified
• Toned (of course!)
• Soft and smooth
• Glowing

How to use toning lotion

Toning lotion should be used morning and night. You simply apply it to your face with a cosmetic pad (being sure to avoid the eye contour area).

In the morning, it can be used to cleanse skin by removing any sebum accumulated during the night. At night, toning lotion completes makeup removal (start by using your makeup remover and follow with toning lotion to rid skin of any remaining cosmetics or skin care products).
