TONER

LOVE

Neutrogena Pore Refining Toner
$7.49 (8.5 fl oz)

TAYLOR : Even after makeup wipes, exfoliation and cleanser, our cotton toner pads can still come away from our faces the color of our makeup. That is why this step is so important. This toner works particularly well for the oily and acne-prone; it is designed to minimize your pores and by shrinking your pores, you attack the root of the problem. When your pores are smaller, there is less room for dirt and bacteria, which means less acne. 

LUST

Dermalogica Multi Active Toner
$35 (8 fl oz)

ANGELICA : Dermalogica’s name has stuck around forever, and there is a reason for that. People live by the skin care line because the science behind it is so amazing. The multi-active toner, while quite expensive, is the better buy because you are getting more product for your money, not to mention the higher quality of the formula. The bottle is quite large, and if used correctly it will last you a long time. After cleansing, spritz on face to completely rehydrate

TAYLOR : Elle UK beauty columnist and global makeup artist, Lisa Eldridge, frequently recommends this product on her beauty blog. Her work has appeared on the pages of British, Italian, Chinese and Japanese Vogue, Glamour, Allure, Elle, Numero, Pop and Lula. And as if that isn’t enough, she has worked with some of the most glamorous women in the world, including Emma Watson, Kate Winslet, Katy Perry, Cameron Diaz, Kiera Knightly, Cate Blanchet, Demi Moore and Salma Hayek. If you’re not going to take our word for it—take hers.
