Toners have come a long way from the astringent, alcohol-laced formulas of the past. Today’s hydrating toners are more like treatment essences packed with barrier-repairing ingredients, soothing botanicals and moisture-binding actives that prep your skin for everything that follows. Whether you’re layering up or keeping it minimal, these milky, misty and micellar options deliver a dewy, plump finish that feels as good as it looks.
