The Layered Toner
Three thin layers of water for skin that looks rested, not shiny
You need
- A hydrating toner with no alcohol and no fragrance
- Clean, warm palms
- Your usual moisturizer
Do this
- After cleansing, pat your face almost dry. Leave it a little damp.
- Pour about ½ teaspoon (2–3 ml) of toner into one palm and warm it between both hands.
- Press your palms onto your cheeks, forehead, chin and neck. Hold each spot for three seconds.
- Wait about 30 seconds, until your skin no longer feels wet.
- Repeat twice more, for three thin layers.
- Seal it in with moisturizer within one minute.
Mina's detail
One big splash mostly runs off. Three thin layers, pressed in and given a moment each, stay where you put them.
Careful
Patch test any new toner on your inner forearm for 24 hours. Skip this ritual on broken or irritated skin.
