The Best Toner For Oily Skin And Korean Glass Skin Care Routine (Part-1)

The best toner for oily skin are the ones that cleanses, treats as well as hydrates your skin without adding too much shine. The Koreans use the “7 skin method” to get full benefits of the toner. In this method after double cleansing your skin of all impurities, the toner is applied as a single layer. Let it dry and then apply the second layer. Like that, apply seven times to fully hydrate your skin.

I have done an ingredient analysis for the products that had listed all of their ingredients on their website. I hope it helps you choose the best toner for your skin.

Compared to rose water toners and cucumber toners , these toners have more potent list of ingredients almost like a serum and hence are expensive compared to its counterparts. Those who have used these toners can certainly feel the difference.

I have mentioned both types of toners below. The ones that can be used for layering should be hydrating and healing, it should not contain hydroxy acids or acne fighting ingredients.

7 skin method toners have multiple ingredients, it is almost like a serum but more watery in nature. They soothe, heal and calm your skin while locking moisture to make your skin look more radiant and plump. Over time your skin will improve in texture and tone.

Below are the best toner for oily skin types:
