Toners are used to cleanse the skin and shrink the appearance of pores. Toners are mainly used to hydrate your skin before miniaturization but alcoholic toners might dry out your skin. Store bought toners might contain alcohol so it is advisable to use either rose water or homemade toners if you want to sty away from alcoholic toners called astringent. Most astringent have alcohol which helps to clean oil and Bactria from the facial skin. Astringent can only suit oily skin people because their skin is pimple pron and the alcohol removes dirt and bacteria to make skin free from pimples and any infections.
I have combination type skin and always use non alcoholic toners you can prepare that at your home. I make lemongrass toners which is very refreshing and calms my skin during summers.
