A homemade face toner is a refreshing and cost-effective way to take care of your beauty needs, especially during the summer. While toners might not be the first preference for many, they are a must-have in your beauty routine, particularly if you have oily, acne-prone skin with large pores. A good toner helps remove excess oil, dirt, and impurities, shrinks pores, and restores the pH balance of your skin. The best part is that toners are versatile and extremely simple to make. Here are my top 5 homemade skin toner recipes for different skin types and issues.
