 3 המינרים נטולי האלכוהול האלה לא יגרו את העור הרגיש שלך

 Facial toners add another layer of targetted caring when it comes to your beauty routine. However, many toners contain alcohol as the main ingredient, which can cause irritation and dryness, especially for those with sensitive skin. Fret not — alcohol-free toners which are said to be gentler are here.

 The pros and cons of alcohol in skincare

Is alcohol for skincare really that bad? Not necessarily.
Many toners use simple alcohols a.k.a. ethanol, methanol, denatured alcohol, and isopropyl alcohol. You might be familiar with them since we often use them for hand sanitising.

As a facial toner ingredient, simple alcohols are effective in dealing with bacteria and getting rid of excess oil and shine. However, they also tend to strip the skin of any moisture and can cause irritation, inflammation, and intense dry patches. People with dry and sensitive skin tend to benefit least from these types of products.

As for alcohol-free toners, these are products that don’t contain simple alcohols in their ingredients list. However, they can still contain ‘good alcohols’ that are proven beneficial to most skin types, even the most sensitive ones.

One example of good alcohol found in alcohol-free products is topical ethanol. This is great at protecting the skin’s moisture. There are also fatty alcohols like methyl, cetyl, stearyl, cetearyl, or lanolin alcohol which have natural emollients and help increase the product’s shelf-life. They also contain fewer irritants than simple alcohols.

Too complicated? We’re here to make things easy. Here’s a list of 3 alcohol-free facial toners for your sensitive skin to get in COSCOREA.
