COTTON PADS ARE COMMONLY USED TO APPLY TONER ON FACE FOR BETTER ABSORPTION. WHAT DO YOU THINK?

So, I got this question to help answer from Clinic Natta Cosme.  I am a believer that one should use cotton pad to use toner.  This is because there is difference between using and not using toner.  Let me tell you a story about how important of using cotton pad to apply toner on the face.

Here is the story about using cotton pads:

A: This toner is no good!  I don't see any difference on my face.

B: How come?  Everyone said that it is good.  Are you using it with cotton pad?

A: Really?  I only pat it on my face using my hand.

B: *horrified*.  It doesn't work that way!  You should use cotton pad. Bla bla bla.....

After one week

A: I am in love with this toner!  Thanks for telling me the correct way of using the toner.

B: Glad that it work for you. (it is important to use cotton pads)

This is a true story of the importance of using cotton pad to apply toner.  Some people may not find it importance to get good cotton pad or soft cotton pad but to me it does make a difference.  It is not necessary to choose expensive or branded cotton pad if you can't afford it as long as you choose some fluffy cotton pad that doesn't hurt the skin.  Some cotton pad are really rough to use, so avoid those.

Using the cotton pad correctly help to clean the skin from all the dead cells and dirt accumulated through the day.  It will also allows the skin to absorb the importance ingredients from serum, essence or moisturiser later.  You don't want those precious ingredients to just stay on top of your skin right?  Besides that, cotton pads have even surface that allow the toner to cover all the area of the skin so that our skin is clean throughout.  This can't be done if we are just using our hands.  Besides that our hands is full with bacteria and using your hands to use the toner is asking for trouble.  It means you are putting bacteria on your skin.

There are two side to the cotton pads and I always utilise both side.  I realise this method work with most of the toner that I am using.  Your skin will be more plump up and softer after that.  Try it yourself to see the differences.


How to use the toner:
1.  Pour about 3.5cm/1,5inch of toner on to the cotton pad.  Make sure it is really wet up to the other side.  It is optional to use two cotton pads.
2.  Then swipe on the T zone first (your nose, and forehead), then swipe on the other area.  Only go through your skin one time.  Don't swipe more than once.  Your skin is not some rough tree bark.
3.  Then turn over to the other side.  Use the other side to pat the toner onto the skin 2-3 few times on each area.

If you are hardworking, you can do this twice a day for faster effect.  Don't do this more than twice a day.  Nothing good will come of being overboard.

Warning-don't do the "swiping method" if your skin is super sensitive to friction.
