First step after cleansing: hydration boost with toner
Use this as the very first step in your routine, right after cleansing. Applying toner immediately after washing your face—before moisture has a chance to evaporate—helps prep your skin so that essences, serums, and lotions absorb more effectively. The mildly acidic pH 5.5 formula helps restore your skin's healthy balance after cleansing, which can leave it slightly alkaline.
Safe for daily use, morning and night
Irritation-tested and gentle enough for everyday use, this toner fits seamlessly into your AM and PM routines. In the morning, it helps reset skin after overnight oil production. At night, it soothes skin that's been exposed to daily stressors.
Application methods: hands or cotton pad
Pour a small amount into your palms, gently press it across your face, then pat lightly with your fingertips to help it absorb. When you want to refine skin texture, saturate a cotton pad and gently sweep it along the skin's natural contours. For areas that feel irritated or look red, soak a cotton pad with toner and leave it on like a mini mask for 3 to 5 minutes to help calm the skin.
Routine pairings by skin type
- Dry skin: Follow with a deeply hydrating essence and cream to lock in moisture and prevent water loss
- Oily or combination skin: The lightweight watery texture absorbs without any sticky residue, so a light lotion on top is all you need
- Sensitive skin: Pair it with The Simple Daily Lotion from the same line for a balanced, irritation-free routine that delivers both hydration and nourishment
Storage and usage tips
Store in a cool place away from direct sunlight. The generous size means you can use it liberally, but we recommend finishing within 6 months of opening. If you experience redness, itching, or any irritation during use, discontinue and consult a dermatologist.
