A good toner for combination skin does more than just refresh—it regulates oil production in greasy areas while delivering hydration to dry patches, minimizes the appearance of pores without over-drying, balances your skin's pH after cleansing, and prepares your complexion to absorb serums and moisturizers more effectively.
