How to choose toner? 1 lotion selection
Toner, toner, astringent water and high-performance water are collectively called cosmetic water. Now the boundaries between emulsions are becoming more and more blurred, and there is no clear direction for naming, so it is not necessary to stick to what kind of water.
Make-up water is 90% water. Its main function is to replenish water.
On the basis of hydrating, some anti-inflammatory and soothing ingredients can be selected according to skin demands:
Water that suits you.
Basic water supply-dry skin mother Muji high moisturizing emulsion, Eupatorium adenophorum coix seed water, Lancome powder water.
Replenish water+control oil-oily mother
Dr. Ye Cheng astringent water, Queen Otellini water, Albin healthy water and Deco perilla water.
Hydration+conditioning (anti-inflammatory, calming, oil regulation)-acne skin mom
Yuemuyuan Mushroom Water, Kiehl's Marigold Water, Albin Health Water, Deco Perilla Water, French Precious Water.
Hydrating and soothing (alcohol-free)-sensitive muscle mom

Recommended products for hydrating and moisturizing
Taiyangshe hyaluronic acid stock solution
Tianhou Faye Wong also uses it, but hers is a large bottle. Hyaluronic acid (HA) has a strong water absorption capacity, which can absorb 1000 times of its own weight. If it is used alone, the absorbed water will evaporate slowly if it is not added with moisturizing cream, and it will have a film feeling after drying, and even be pulled out.
So I always drop lotion and cream, which can double the absorption of skin care products. Add it to the makeup water, and remember to add a layer of cream at the back.
Blue water+excellent 1/2 water-saving cotton pad
Coix seed water is the representative of cheap big bowl, which is very suitable for wet compress. There are Japanese edition, Hong Kong and Taiwan edition and mainland edition, and the composition is slightly different. This is the Japanese version. A good partner is this cotton pad, which is really water-saving, fully absorbent and evenly applied. It is very obedient. The wavy design can fit the eyes.
Muji Toner and Moisturizer
No perfume, no alcohol, mild formula, suitable for sensitive muscles.

6. Other emulsions
Because each brand has a different name, it has derived moisturizing, whitening, oil control, soothing and other emulsions, all of which have the characteristics of emulsions, but only for some key points.
Matters needing attention when selecting:
When choosing moisturizing emulsion, we should pay attention to whether the ingredients are mild, whether the moisturizing time is lasting and whether it is easy to penetrate.
When choosing whitening lotion, we should pay attention to whether it is mild and not irritating. Because whitening ingredients are usually unstable, sensitive skin should pay special attention.
Oil control emulsions usually contain alcohol and sedative ingredients. Note that moderate drinking is good for the skin, but excessive drinking may be harmful.
Soothing lotion uses the safest ingredients and will not cause allergies, so it is more suitable for damaged and sensitive skin.
I recommend: skin food tea tree essence oil control toner.
