Skin Care for Men - Using Toner monkeysee.com See how the experts do it. Hi I’m Pirooz Sarshar co-founder of the grooming lounge. Today, I’m teaching you the basics of men’s skin care. In this segment, I’m going to teach you about toners. You’re probably wondering do I need to use a toner or what is a toner. Well a toner removes build up and residue and shrinks your pores and the most important job that a toner achieves is it restores balance to the skin so now you’ve washes your face, you’ve exfoliated your face, now we need to restore balance to the skin, okay. And toner’s come in many forms. Toners are different for different skin types, if your skin is prone to acne the toner will contain maybe more alcohol or ingredients like salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide to help basically fight and remedy acne. If you have gentle skin, the toner is more gentle and be more of a spray toner just like this one and this is a toner just for gentle skin and I’ll show you how to use this. This is for dry aged skin and this is a very basic toner right here, watch this and this is how use it, you just basically spray it on your face and viola it restores balance, very simple. But the toner that I’m going to be using today and the toner that’s perfect for my skin type and most of you guys out there is this liquid one right here. All you need is a cotton ball just like this one, open the top, apply the toner just like this. Make sure it’s in your sink so it doesn’t get everywhere and you’re going to notice I’m going to start working on my forehead and I’m going to work all the way down, okay. And what’s happening right now is it’s closing up the pores, its restoring balance and it looks a little wet but I’m going to use it all over my face and be sure to stretch the skin so you don’t miss any of the fine details, okay. And something that’s really interesting is in filming this I’ve washed my face. I’ve exfoliated my face and now look at the toner, look at all the build up. This is after washing and exfoliating my face. This is all the build up around my nose, around my neck, around my face. I think it’s a good idea to use a toner. In the next segment I’m going to teach you how to moisturize.
