💧 How to Use the Soothing Toner
The toner is the critical step that follows cleansing and precedes your targeted treatments (serums/ampoules).
Step-by-Step Instructions
-
After Cleansing: After patting your face dry following the cleansing foam, dispense the toner.
-
Dispense: Pour a small amount (about a coin-sized amount) of the toner onto your palm or onto a cotton pad.
-
Application Method 1 (Patting): If using your hands, gently pat the toner all over your face until fully absorbed. This method minimizes friction and conserves product.
-
Application Method 2 (Wiping): If using a cotton pad, gently sweep the pad across your face, starting from the center and moving outwards. This provides a very light, final exfoliation step.
-
Layering (7-Skin Method): For highly dehydrated or irritated skin, you can apply 3 to 7 thin layers of this toner, patting each layer in until absorbed before applying the next. This provides deep, non-heavy hydration.
-
Spot Treatment (Toner Mask): For areas with intense redness or irritation, soak a thin cotton pad or a compressed sheet mask with the toner and leave it on the affected area for 5-10 minutes.
When to Use
-
Use twice daily, both morning and night, immediately after cleansing your face.
