The Inexpensive Miracle Toner for clear, flawless skin

Toning the skin after cleansing is a necessary step especially if you suffer from blemishes because it removes excess dirt and grime that your soap or cleanser might have missed and clears out the pores. Toning also balances the pH level of your skin. Balancing the skin's pH level is important to keeping skin in healthy condition because this will enable it to fight off blemish causing bacteria, normalize oil production, prevent premature aging, skin damage and maintain its natural glow.

There are all kinds of toners in the market and the best toner that I have found thus far is good ole' inexpensive witch hazel. Witch hazel can be found at most department and drug stores and my absolute favorite is T.N's Dickson Witch hazel which retails for about $2-$3. This is an excellent toner and I apply with a face towel or cotton ball and immediately I will see the left over dirt and soap residue left on my face which can clog more pores and lead to spotting. Also after applying the witch hazel toner my face feels instantly cleansed and refreshed. Try it and you will shocked at all the nastiness that is left over on your skin.

Something important to note is that distilled witch hazel consists of a mixture with alcohol, some brands have a higher alcohol base, which can be too drying for some skin types. I find it suitable to use brands with lower alcohol base, which is why I like my Dicksons.

Witch hazel is an expensive but effective beauty product and it is one of my beauty must haves. It is ideal for especially oily, acne prone skin types like myself and gentle enough for even sensitive skin types. It will keep your skin clean and prevent nasty breakouts.

Enjoy ladies!
