A facial toner isn’t just for makeup removal. Fundamentally, it is used to to gently clear your pores; to smooth out your complexion and to leave your face feeling refreshed. It will make your pores feel tighter and will soothe and comfort your skin. It helps to prevent acne from forming by keeping your pores clean and unclogged. BrenditasBodyWorks
Check out Brendita’s list of the best ingredients to use in a facial toner. You will find the list at the above link.

As to whether facial toning is really necessary – well for people with large pores, I think it is, for sure. There are 2 main reasons. The first is that the right toner will adjust the pH balance of your skin and keep it healthier and less vulnerable to breakouts; the second is that the right toner will minimize your pores and give you a smoother complexion. Both of these require regular attention. A toner, used every day after cleansing, is an ideal way to get the job done.
