Allure Best Of Beauty 2017 Fresh Rose Deep Hydration Facial Toner Review... Is This Really Best Toner?

I have been using toners since I was in middle school, I can only be thankful to my grandmother for that. See most of what I know and do now is from watching her when I was little. She used to create her own toners from ingredients found in our kitchen or in our back yard. We had the most beautiful rose trees in the front and side of our house and she used to use them for her baths and facials. So you can imagine how hard it is for me to believe how a lot of woman still to this day do not use or some don't even know what a toner is used for.

Well I'm here to save your skin today, and thanks to Fresh you wont even need to plant a rose tree to make your toner. Ok before I tell you more about the toner I want to tell you what is the purpose of a toner (puts on Esthetician hat). 

The main purpose of a toner is to restores your skins PH. Our skin is acidic, when we wash our face with any cleanser (alkaline) the perfect balance which if you were to measure is between a 5.5-6  gets out of whack. Using a well formulated toner will help restore the perfect balance. When you wash your face and don't use a toner you are making your skin work over time and that may cause issues for your skin like over production of oil. 

Toners also offer so much more to your skin, its another layer of protection, it helps remove any impurities missed by our cleansers and so much more. 

Ok now I can tell you about Fresh Rose Deep Hydration Facial Toner and how its a perfectly balanced toner. My skin is loving it so much, especially now in the drier months. I am not surprised it won Allure Best Of Beauty 2017 and I wont be surprised if it wins 2018 and the year after that and so on. Below is the description from Fresh.
