The 7 toners you need for “pore-less” skin

If an oily complexion or large pores are an issue for you, then toning is one skincare step you shouldn’t skip. Toners not only have astringent properties to tighten pores, they often also help to remove excess oil and balance the complexion.

Despite that, toners were left out of many women’s regime in the past because of their reputation of dehydrating and drying out skin.

Thankfully, they have upped their game and these new generation toners do so much more than just work on pores. Many have hydrating properties to keep skin looking fresh and plump, gently exfoliate to smooth the complexion and treat other concerns on top of acne and oil.

We’ve put together a list of the best toners that not only tighten pores and treat excess sebum but are also moisturising enough to plump and refresh, giving you a “pore-less” appearance. Time to slap on these watery wonders!

Alcohol-free and suitable for all skin types, this not only tones and cleanses but also hydrates, softens, refines pores and primes your skin for the rest of your skincare ritual. It’s made with rose fruit extract that has astringent properties to refine the look of pores but also stimulates collagen synthesis to help skin look smoother.
