π Toner/Essences/Ampoules π
A face toner is considered an essential step in one's skincare routine because it is used to remove residue from your cleansers as well as any pollutants from the day. In the world of Korean skincare, a face toner comes before a face essence and helps restore the skinβs pH level. Toner pH level should fall between 5-7
The subtle difference between a face toner and a face essence is that a face essence has a more concentrated ingredient base which is usually packed full of nutrients, vitamins, and antioxidants that mainly helps with hydration + one or multiple skincare needs based on your skin type and skin condition.
