Toning was always a step I overlooked. Recently though, I’ve been taking better care of my skin and adding toning into my routine. Funny thing – my skin is better for it. The extra TLC I’ve been giving it works.
Until recently I was using quite a harsh toner. It was very drying and although it did help improve my pores and reduce blackheads, it made my face red and patchy. I hate wasting products but I didn’t want to have come a long way with my skin to just have it be red and damaged by my toner. So I went on the hunt for something better.
I’ve heard a lot of good things about Lancôme skincare so searched the Feelunique website for toners in their range. They have a lot to choose from but I settled with the hydration tonic.
It’s wonderful. So refreshing, cooling and calming. Great after a face mask or exfoliate as it’s super hydrating too. It’s got a good consistency (think gravy?) and a little goes a long way.
I apply it with my fingers and take some time to really massage it into my skin and enjoy the cooling temperature and calming smell. On the bottle it says ’tissue off’ honestly I don’t know if that means you need to wipe it off after but I find it soaks in so there’s no need?
I’d recommend not using a cotton pad to apply as you end up losing a lot of the product to the cotton wool.
