Why is a toner used when applying makeup?

Toners are an important part of a skincare routine, but they are not typically used when applying makeup. Toners are used after cleansing and before moisturizing, to help balance the pH of the skin and remove any remaining dirt or impurities. They can also help to improve the appearance of pores and refresh the skin. Toners are typically applied with a cotton pad, and they should not be used on sensitive or dry skin.
