Question: What do toners "tone?" I thought Paula didn’t recommend toners!
Answer: Toners don’t "tone" anything, but they can be a great after-cleansing step to be sure you’ve gotten off all of your makeup. They can soothe the skin, and they can add hydrating ingredients or ingredients that mimic the structure of ski, which is a great addition to anyone’s cleansing regimen. However, this is not true of all toners because many lack these kinds of ingredients. In the past, most toners (also known as astringents, fresheners, pore cleansers, clarifying lotions, Sea Breeze, or witch hazel) were made primarily of alcohol and other irritating ingredients, which is why Paula was so outspoken about toners being a problem for skin. Although there are still irritating toners to watch out for, there are many available that can be a helpful addition to your skin-care routine. Skin Recovery Toner represents a state-of-the-art formulation that is brimming with skin-beneficial ingredients.
Question: Besides skin type, what are the main differences between the Paula’s Choice Final Touch Toner for Normal to Dry Skin and Skin Recovery Toner?
Answer: Final Touch Toners are non-irritating toners designed to refresh skin and help remove last traces of makeup, while the Skin Recovery Toner is for those who need more help in protecting their skin from environmental damage or dryness. Skin Recovery Toner also has a richer texture than the Final Touch Toners.
All Paula’s Choice toners are alcohol- and fragrance-free and contain no unnecessary irritants such as menthol, peppermint, and citrus oils.
