Toner is important. Some toner can help to have better absorption of skincare products.
i skip moisturiser but i don't skip toner~
I believe u must be having good skin to skip moisturizer
IN our kind of climate many cannot do without moisturizer
i regret only recent couple of years then i started using moisturizer.
exactly.... our climate..... humid like fark....
we need hydration more than surface moisturisation
so moisturiser not relli required unless u are having dry skin or work in a/c environment for long hours
for some ppl with oily skin, putting moisturiser makes things worse
i need hydration badly. i recently only got to know moisturizer is not providing that much of hydration compared to hydrating lotion.
I remember having oilier skin when I first applied moisturizer on my face.
just saw from cable. the skin dr recommended watermelon skin place on face for cooling and hydrating.

wah lau, i just started using moisturiser couple of months ago lor..
hahahahha..
but my skin is oily la..
but stil, minimum moisturiser is stil needed.. i read somewhere..
i oni put moisturiser for morling regime or before makeup
at nite usually is just toner and serum
for oily skin ppl, there are oil-free moisturisers
or go for the gel type or watery type instead of cream type

Use oil free moisturizer or hydrating lotion
sometimes after i finish using sheet masks, i will apply the toner onto the sheet mask (still on the face) and leave it to dry..then remove the sheet
results in clearer and brighter face!
also depends on what kind of tone u guys use lar..i'm using neutrogena fine fairness toner
toner shd be applied before the sheet mask
helps in absorption of the essence
after sheet mask can put moisturiser though most of the time the essence alot, so dun relli need....
usually i just pat the essence into the face and then lightly dab off the extra
then last time mlm teach wrong stuff liaoz..haha
u can soak pill mask in toner
then use as sheet mask
put on face for 10-15 mins
good for hydration (if ur toner is good for hydration) or just for pH balancing
Using the sample of Skin Refiner (toner) from Lanaige. This is great for hydrating with bo niao xuan and the ogl.......... make it so hydrating. My skin immediately hydrated and pores tightened.

This transparent gel-type Perfect Renew Skin Refiner is ideal for tired, fatigue skin in need of refreshment. It penetrates into skin as quickly as it purifies and tightens. Moisturized skin is provided with instant suppleness (with Hyaluronic acid and Oligosaccharides) as it synthesizes collagen and elastic fibers formation, which firms and tightens without drying. Skin’s soft like snow.
Oligosaccharides provides hydration.

I used to have wrong concept that oily skin does not need moisturisation/hydration so I only not too long ago started using hydrating products.
For your info, oily skin still needs hydration. I did not know this until recently. Started to use hydrating products, think it will take some time to see permanent hydration on my oily/combi skin.
how to test whether your skin is hydrated --
when u press or poke your skin, it should bounce back
if it's nua nua or no 弹性, means the skin is not hydrated well

Pores size reduced.
It is the alcohol content and the price $53 that make me consider if I should continue to use it. So far this is the best toner I have ever used.
