Which should I use first, toner or conditioning lotion? The reason why toner should be used before conditioning lotion

Toner is a skin care product that needs to be used immediately after cleansing. As for what are toner and conditioner? How to use them respectively? Let’s analyze it together below!

Which should I use first, toner or conditioning lotion?

Use toner first. Because toner is the most common skin care water, it has the effect of secondary cleansing and shrinking pores. It has a refreshing texture, can regulate the stratum corneum and replenish moisture to the skin. Using toner after cleansing can quickly hydrate the skin and avoid dryness. Conditioning liquid is a skin care product that has the effect of balancing the skin. Only after the skin is thoroughly cleansed can the effect of the conditioning liquid be effectively exerted.

What is conditioning fluid?

The principle of conditioning lotion is very similar to that of essence water. Both are used to adjust the pH value of the skin, and to condition overly alkaline skin to weakly acidic skin. The difference is that conditioning water is more targeted at sensitive skin or people with oily and acne-prone skin than essence water, and it can provide special skin care. Make the skin condition more stable and effectively control excessive oil secretion. In addition, the conditioning solutions of different products also have different specific effects. However, the conditioning liquid does not have the effect of locking in skin moisture, so fairies will need to use lotion or cream afterwards.

When to use the conditioning fluid

In our daily life, the general skin care order is: makeup removal - cleansing - toner - lotion - conditioning liquid (essence) - cream. You can choose one between the toner and the essence, but if possible, it would be better to use both together. If used together, use the conditioning liquid first, because the molecules in the essence are very fine, and the essence can be well absorbed by the face after the conditioning liquid is used. However, people with oily and acne-prone skin are not suitable for too many skin care procedures. For oily and acne-prone skin, you can just choose one of the two.
