Refresh and replenish your skin after cleansing with natural face toners, hydrating mists, floral waters and targeted brightening formulas. From lightweight hydration for skin that feels dry or easily unsettled to balancing and refining options for combination or oily skin, the range brings a little extra comfort and freshness to your routine.
If your skin feels dry or tight after cleansing, begin with hydration. La Mav Rose Hydrating Mist, Miod Australian Native Hydrating Face Mist and Pod Organics Blue Tansy & Hyaluronic Hydrating Face Mist add a light layer of moisture before serum or moisturiser. Antipodes Ananda Antioxidant Rich Gentle Toner is a rose-scented alternative that has been dermatologically approved for sensitive skin.
Combination or oily skin does not automatically need a strong or drying toner. KIND-LY Citrus Mist Balancing Toner offers a light, refreshing option that can also be used during the day. If your cheeks feel dry while your T-zone becomes oily, a lightweight mist may feel more comfortable than a more astringent toner.
For dull or uneven-looking skin, Antipodes Glory Vitamin C Triple-Action Glow Toner is the more targeted choice because it combines vitamin C with gentle fruit acids. Treat it as an active toner rather than a simple refreshing mist.
Toner describes the step in your routine, while mist describes how the product is applied. A hydrating face mist can be used as your toner after cleansing and again during the day when your skin needs a refresh.
A hydrosol is a distilled botanical water. Every Bit Organic Rose Water is a simple option for anyone who wants a single-floral-water toner. It can be pressed into the skin with clean hands or applied with a soft pad.
An essence is another lightweight leave-on step, but it can do more than a plain floral water. Eco by Sonya Super Fruit Essence combines hydration with fruit extracts and is used after cleansing.
Use toner after cleansing and before serum, face oil or moisturiser. A mist can be sprayed over the face, while a liquid toner can be pressed in with clean hands or applied with a soft cotton or reusable pad. Toner is left on rather than rinsed away.
During the day, a hydrating mist can be reapplied over bare skin or makeup. An active toner such as Antipodes Glory belongs in your normal skincare routine rather than being used as a casual refresh. In the morning, finish with sunscreen.
A face toner adds a lightweight leave-on step between cleansing and the rest of your skincare. Depending on the formula, it may hydrate, refresh, balance or brighten the skin.
It is not meant to finish the job of cleansing, so makeup and cleanser should already be fully removed. Its value comes from what it adds to the routine, such as hydration or targeted brightening.
No, toner is not compulsory. Add one when it provides something your routine is missing, such as light hydration before serum, a refreshing mist during the day or a targeted brightening step.
If your skin already feels comfortable and your routine is working well, you do not need to add toner simply for the sake of another step.
Yes, when the mist is designed for use after cleansing. La Mav Rose Hydrating Mist, Miod Australian Native Hydrating Face Mist and Antipodes Ananda can all serve as the toner step and may also be used for a light daytime refresh.
A body mist or fragrance mist is not a substitute for facial toner.
For dry or dehydrated skin, begin with La Mav Rose Hydrating Mist, Miod Australian Native Hydrating Face Mist or Pod Organics Blue Tansy & Hyaluronic Hydrating Face Mist. Antipodes Ananda is a gentle hydrating option for easily unsettled skin.
For combination or oilier skin, KIND-LY Citrus Mist Balancing Toner is a lightweight balancing option. If your cheeks are dry or tight, hydration may be more useful than choosing the strongest toner for the oily areas.
Either method can work. Pressing toner in with clean hands uses less product and suits hydrating formulas, while a cotton or reusable pad gives more control with a traditional liquid toner.
Spray mists evenly over the face with the eyes closed, then let them settle before applying serum or moisturiser.
A plain hydrating toner or mist can usually be used in the same routine as exfoliating acids or a retinoid. If the toner itself exfoliates, begin by using it on a different evening.
Antipodes Glory contains gentle fruit acids, so avoid combining it with another exfoliating treatment or retinoid on the same evening when first introducing it. Keep the rest of the routine hydrating and use sunscreen each morning.
