Toning lotion is a beauty ally that guarantees beautiful skin all year round. Could you be missing out on an indispensable product?

What is a tonic lotion?

It's a liquid skincare preparation, composed of water and skin-benefiting active ingredients such as chamomile, witch hazel, rose and aloe vera.

Lotion is a skincare product in its own right. It is neither a make-up remover nor a cleanser. It is used in the evening, after make-up removal, to complete the cleansing of the skin, and in the morning, before applying your day cream, to cleanse the excess sebum produced during the night.

In this way, it differs from micellar water, which removes make-up and cleanses the face. Both products can be used in the same beauty routine. Micellar water first, followed by tonic lotion.

What is a facial toner used for?

As mentioned above, toning lo tion completes make-up removal, which is never superfluous when you consider all the damage that can be caused by poorly-cleansed make-up - dull complexion, pimples, premature ageing.

Secondly, it gives the skin a real boost as it prepares it to receive skincare products. How does it do this? By making the epidermis permeable. As a result, creams and serums applied afterwards are able to penetrate the epidermis more effectively.

What's more, the water and active ingredients contained in the toning lotion in turn moisturize, brighten the complexion and combat excess sebum, pimples and redness. A true skincare product in its own right.
