Do I need a toner if I already use a cream?

No, a toner is not a mandatory step. If your skin is pleasantly cared for with the existing cream, you don’t need to add anything beforehand. Toners are usually more liquid than creams and, depending on their composition, can provide additional moisture. Whether you like this layer is a question of your skin and your preferences. The number of products says little about how well a routine suits you.
If you’re looking for a lightweight addition, the Pyunkang Yul Essence Toner is an example of a moisturizing step after cleansing. This is followed by your cream if necessary. When choosing, pay closer attention to the type of toner: An exfoliating toner with acids performs a different task and is used according to its own instructions. The word “toner” alone doesn’t reveal how often a product belongs in your routine. Does your current toner feel good? Then he doesn’t need a replacement just because something new appears.
