Open, closed, clogged pores?

Does cleansing open pores?


If you cleanse and don't use toner, does it allow junk to get in making it clogged?





Help... Idk if I should start using toner or not

Open, closed, clogged pores?
Cleansing definetly opens up the pores cos it clears the skin surface of dirts and oils and that helps the skin breathe better.


Toners help freshen the skin. Whether we use toners or not, some junk will get in cos the face is exposed to them daily. However, cleansing and toning help reduce their effects to a barest minimum if used twice daily and consistently. So i'll advice you start using one......Mary Kay toners work well. They have diff options based on your skin type. U'll be glad you did.
Reply:Toner helps to get down deep into your pores to help pull the stuff out. cleansing just kinda of gets surface stuff, toning gets deep down. its a good idea to tone after cleansing, it pulls the stuff down, %26amp; then makes them smaller. thus reducing not only the chance of stuff getting in, but the appearence of large pores, too. for more help, go to your local walgreens %26amp; talk to the beauty advisor there, they'll help you pick the right one for your skin tone, %26amp; answer any more questions you have.
Reply:toner helps freshen your skin, it clenses deep down inside your pores. i would start using a toner twice a day.

Reply:The purpose of Facial Toner and the toning routine is to promote elasticity of the skin pores and stimulate the skin's metabolic breathing processes. Whilst the cleansing routine is a physical process, the purpose of toning is to stimulate the skin's own self-cleansing capacities and healthy cellular renewal. Efficient and elastic pores mean effective waste and toxin elimination. Vital renewal of skin cells promotes a healthy skin condition.





toner has an important function as it serves as a bridge between the cleansing and moisturising routines and acts as a carrier for the moisturiser to penetrate deeply into the skin with its essential ingredients. This ensures that full benefit and therapeutic value is extracted from the selected moisturising product.
