Choosing a toner

Choosing a tonerUsing a toner after you've cleansed will refresh your skin, but avoid alcohol-based toners. Even if you have oily skin, using alcohol-based toners to strip grease from your skin will only encourage it pump more oil out. Try using undiluted floral waters applied with a cotton ball and available at drug stores as toners. Try chamomile water for sensitive-normal skin, rose water for dry skin, and witch hazel for oily or problem-prone skin.

Thanks for the tip. I read in a book that if you have oily skin you should use a toner after you have cleansed your face. I didn't know what or which one to use.
