1. ORIGINS United State™ Balancing Tonic


Refine, rebalance, and refresh your skin with this exfoliating toner. Laminaria treats excessive oil and keeps your T-zone perfectly matte, while soy protein hydrates thirsty skin and maintains moisture levels. A combination of aromatic essential oils makes it especially pleasurable to use this dermatologist-tested balancing tonic.
2. MURAD Clarifying Toner


Cleanse your skin of impurities and prevent breakouts from taking over. This clarifying toner is great for oily skin and large pores, as it eliminates excess oil and keeps pores clear of gunk and blemishes. The cooling formula includes pore-tightening witch hazel and hydrating cucumber extract, and it’s ideal for all skin types.
3. LATHER Citrus Balancing Toner


This purifying alcohol-free toner is instantly brightening and also meets a slew of skin concerns. Lemon bioflavonoids balance pH levels, linoleic acid treats inflammation and redness, and vitamin E fortifies skin against pollution and environmental stressors. The light exfoliating properties are balanced by refreshing pine tree extract, which keeps skin hydrated and dewy.
4. ESTÉE LAUDER Perfectly Clean Fresh Balancing Lotion


Normal and combination skin will love this dermatologist-tested, non-acnegenic skin toner. It’ll remove excess oil from overactive pores while conditioning your skin with soothing white water lily, senega, and barberry extracts. Your skin will be left so soft that you’ll be tempted to keep touching it—we recommend keeping your hands off and admiring yourself in a mirror instead.
5. ANDALOU NATURALS Clear Skin Willow Bark Pure Pore Toner


Oily and acne-prone skin, take heart—there’s a balancing toner to address all your skin concerns! A potent fruit stem cell complex with argan stem cells, kombucha probiotics, and aloe vera polysaccharides sends a cocktail of soothing nutrients straight into your pores. Willow bark gently exfoliates and clears away grime without stripping your skin. The result? Super-soft, even-textured skin that’ll glow for days.
6. APTO SKINCARE Balancing Mist with Green Tea & Chlorella


Keep this balancing toner on hand when you need your skin to look and feel radiant and dewy. Chlorella, a freshwater algae, keeps harmful bacteria and toxins at bay and ensures that they don’t soak into pores. The mist also contains anti-inflammatory and antibacterial green tea, which fights acne and oil production while smoothing skin and brightening dark spots.
7. CLARISEA Daily Glow Clarifying Rose Toner


Bring balance and clarity to your skincare and your life with this soothing cruelty-free, vegan toner. Blemish-prone oily skin will be kept under control with redness-reducing organic rose hydrosol. On top of that, a combo of sea salts purifies pores and eliminates patchiness and uneven skin tone.
8. PIXI BY PETRA Rose Tonic


Toning is a treat with this calming, nutrient-rich tonic. Rose hydrosol keeps pores plump and hydrated while minimizing redness, and elderflower brightens dull and over-exposed skin. The toner smells delicious and it’ll leave your skin feeling as velvety-soft as rose petals.
9. DERMADELI Rejuvenating Toner


Gently slough away dead skin cells and debris while firming your skin and prepping it for your other skincare products. Witch hazel works to seal in moisture and keep pores tight and flawless, while sea kelp calms and moisturizes stressed-out complexions. The rejuvenating toner is effective but gentle enough for even the most sensitive skin.
10. APHRODITE SKINCARE Facial Toner with Aloe Vera


This alcohol-free toner was formulated to make you look and feel your best. A combination of aloe vera, rosemary, and witch hazel extracts calms and balances the skin. The olive oil base gently hydrates while prepping skin for additional serums and moisturizers.
