Korean toner and toner pad

Facial toner or toner, toner pad, and toner mist products.
Toner is the first moisturizing step in skincare after cleansing, and therefore one of the most important. Its role is to balance the skin's pH immediately after washing the face, so that the skin's protective barrier remains strong and the skin can fight bacteria and impurities.

Toner protects the skin from the tight, dry feeling after washing and helps other skincare products absorb better. Even the cream locks in moisture much better when a toner has been used underneath, left slightly damp before applying serum and cream. For dry skin, facial toner provides hydration, but this is also important for oily skin, because hydrated skin needs to produce less sebum to keep the skin tissue elastic, which balances the skin's sebum production.

Toners also have different consistencies, from watery to thicker essences. You can also layer toner if you feel that the hydration offered once is not enough (this is, for example, what the trendy 7 skin method is about). At Yeppo, we recommend using cotton pads to apply only exfoliating toners containing AHA/BHA/PHA acids, and apply other toners directly onto your palms so you can gently pat them onto your face. This way, you save cotton pads, toner, and your skin from physical exfoliation and possible irritation.
