Toning is Category 2 (C2) in the Urban Botanics 5-step Daily Regimen.
It is important to tone after cleansing. Toning restores the proper pH of the skin, tightens the skin, reduces pore size, and has natural anti-bacterial properties; however, most toners use alcohols, which are drying and can be harsh to the skin. Using witch hazel instead of alcohols, Urban Botanics Balancing Toner (C2) is gentler and less drying, appropriate for all skin types. The aloe vera, botanical extracts, MSM, and the lemon and orange essential oils help soothe the skin.
Like all Urban Botanics products, the Urban Botanics Balancing Toner (C2) is alcohol-free, paraben-free, propylene glycol-free and sulfate-free (sodium lauryl and laureth sulfates, ammonium lauryl and laureth sulfates). We believe that the ingredients you put on your skin should only have positive effects, and so we give you an exceptionally clean product line.
Directions: After cleansing with the Urban Botanics Facial Cleanser (C1), apply a thin layer of the Urban Botanics Balancing Toner (C2) to the face. After toning, follow with Urban Botanics Anti-Oxidant Normalizing Serum (C3) to normalize and protect the skin. Use morning and night.
