Frequently Asked Questions About Toners
-
What does a facial toner actually do?
Think of toner as your skin's little reset button. It is the essential step between cleansing and moisturizing. A good toner removes any lingering impurities after washing, balances the skin, visually shrinks pores, and preps your complexion to better absorb your serums and moisturizers. It's the bare minimum for better-looking skin. -
Is alcohol-free toner good for dry skin?
Yes! Alcohol-free toners, especially our Hydrating Milky Toner, are excellent for dry skin. Because our formulas do not contain harsh, drying alcohols, they work overtime to deeply hydrate and cleanse without stripping your skin's natural moisture barrier. -
How often should I use Thayers witch hazel toner?
You can use our gentle, alcohol-free toners twice daily—once in the morning and once at night—immediately after cleansing and before applying your moisturizer. -
Which Thayers toner is best for blemish-prone skin?
For blemish-prone skin, we recommend the Thayers Blemish Clearing Toner. It is formulated with 2% Salicylic Acid to gently clarify pores, treat existing blemishes, and prevent new breakouts while supporting the skin with our soothing Aloe Vera and Witch Hazel blend. -
Do I need to wash off toner after applying it?
No, you do not need to wash off toner. Thayers toners are designed to be left on the skin to absorb and provide maximum hydrating and balancing benefits before you apply your moisturizer. -
Is witch hazel safe for sensitive skin?
Yes, provided it is the right kind! Many commercial witch hazel products are distilled with harsh alcohols that can strip the skin. Thayers is different. Our farm-to-bottle Witch Hazel is non-distilled and 100% alcohol-free, meaning it retains its natural, antioxidant-rich benefits. Blended with soothing Aloe Vera, it acts as a gentle, calming remedy that is perfectly safe for sensitive skin.
-
Where does toner go in my skincare routine?
Toner should always be applied immediately after cleansing your face, and before applying any serums, treatments, or moisturizers. Applying toner to freshly cleansed skin locks in hydration and creates a cushioned, damp base that helps the rest of your skincare products absorb more effectively.
-
Can I use different Thayers toners in the same routine?
Absolutely. Many people love to "skin cycle" or target different concerns based on the time of day. For example, you might use our 2% AHA Toner at night to gently exfoliate and smooth texture and then follow up with our Milky Hydrating Toner in the morning to deeply cushion and hydrate the skin for a dewy glow.
