How to Swap to Non-Toxic face toners:
Here's how to swap to non-toxic face toners:
What to know about face toner
Face toner is applied directly to your skin and used daily, often twice a day. That combination of frequent use and direct contact with a large area of your face makes its formulation worth paying attention to.
- Toners sit on your skin without being rinsed off, so every ingredient stays in prolonged contact with your face.
- Welpr focuses on what toners are made of—looking at fragrance sources, preservatives, and whether ingredients like parabens, phthalates, or synthetic fragrances are present.
Review the toners you already use
Check your current face toner using the Welpr Personal Care and Cosmetic Scanner. It lets you snap a photo of your ingredient label and flags anything that doesn't meet Welpr's standards.
- Start with the toner you use most often or any toner you apply twice a day, since higher frequency means more exposure.
- Look for the words "fragrance" or "parfum" on the label—these often indicate synthetic fragrance blends that aren't fully disclosed.
Use your current toner more carefully
If you're not ready to replace your toner right away, a small adjustment can help. Reducing how often you apply it or where you apply it limits how much sits on your skin each day.
- If you currently use toner morning and night, try cutting back to once a day until you find a cleaner option.
- Avoid applying toner around your eyes and mouth where skin is thinnest and most absorbent.
Choose a cleaner face toner
Look for toners with simple, purposeful formulations. The best options skip synthetic fragrance, harsh preservatives, and unnecessary additives while still being effective.
- Choose fragrance-free toners or ones scented only with essential oils or plant extracts—and be cautious of vague claims like "natural" or "clean" without certification to back them up.
