Our Pick Of The Best Toners Under Rs 500!

We have been brought up with the conditioning that the basic fundamentals of skin care are CTM i.e. cleansing, toning and moisturising. But has anyone ever stopped and questioned the benefits and uses of these skincare rituals?

Healthy skin begins with cleansing—that’s easy to understand. But what about toner? The step is optional and as a lazy girl, I tend to skip it. Hence, I was on a mission to find out, if I really need toning. If yes, then why?

Well, turns out, toning is, in fact, a necessary step in our skin care regime. For starters, a toner can even help balance the pH of your skin, which can prevent dryness, premature wrinkles, and fine lines. Toner also helps prep your face better for the moisturisers or serums you use.

Additionally, toners also work towards hydrating your skin and reducing redness. We all know that large open pores, trap dirt, oil and grime, cause acne breakouts, whiteheads and blackheads. However, a good toner can minimize pores, giving a healthy glow to your skin. Toners, make pores appear smaller by constricting the blood vessels, thus tightening the skin.

So, the next time you are contemplating skipping toner, think again. Your skin will thank you. For the girl on a budget, here are the best toners under Rs. 500, for all skin types.
