Exfoliating toners are known to help remove dead skin cells, improve skin texture and promote a more even skin complexion. All of these functions are not only essential for optimal skin health , but also for prepping it before applying other products. Toners that are formulated with non-drying active ingredients can also be used daily to both leave the skin feeling soft and prevent acne and breakouts.

And one of the best on the market is the Medik8 Press & Glow Daily Exfoliating PHA Tonic - you can also get it from LookFantastic . Priced at £32, it contains polyhydroxy acid (PHA) gluconolactone, a gentle chemical exfoliant. Unlike traditional PHAs, which can be drying on the skin, the hydrating and refining ingredient is proven to be gentle enough for twice-a-day use - even on sensitive skin.
