In the world of skincare, toners tend to get relegated to the backseat. They are “nice-to-have” for many people, not “must-have,” and some people skip them altogether. The problem, of course, is that without the best hydrating toner, your face can feel a little tight after you cleanse, or worst case, your serums and moisturizers don’t get a chance to deliver all they could.
The best toner provides way more than a tight feeling and a zap of freshness. It sets your skin back to its neutral state after cleansing. Plus, it sets the stage for a healthy pH and helps to smooth the surface so the next products you layer on will absorb the way they should. It’s also perfect for dealing with your skin’s day-to-day troubles like oiliness, clogged pores, and uncomfortable dryness.
“Maintaining a balanced skin pH is one of the simplest yet most ef ective ways
to support barrier health, reduce breakouts, and improve skin clarity.”– British Journal of Dermatology
Why Toners Are More Important Than You Think
One of the most overlooked functions of toner for skin is its role in helping your skin in the transition. The skin may feel stripped and raw after cleansing, but what we all really
want is to get to that nourished, protected finish. Another challenge is that your skin might not be the same on all parts of the face. Your cheeks might feel dry while your T-zone feels oily. The right toner for skin can help you with this. At Urban Veda we have a different range of toners for your skin type. This makes your skincare routine feel more effective overall. So rather than thinking about the toner for face as an ‘extra,’ consider it the step that helps your skin find its balance — clearing away what doesn’t belong, soothing what feels unsettled, and setting the stage for everything else that follows.
Soothing Hydrating Toner for Sensitive Skin
We have all seen someone, or even experienced it ourselves, where stepping out in the sun for just 2 minutes causes redness, or even a minor touch on the face triggers irritation.

Purifying Hydrating Toner for Oily & Blemish-Prone Skin
If you're on an on-the-go lifestyle that includes travel, a daily commute, or simply happen to be outside a lot, your skin goes through a lot. Heat and dirt can really add up. If you have oily skin, that usually involves more clogged pores and pesky breakouts at the worst possible moment. The challenge is finding a product that does it all -- without undue dehydration of your skin. This is exactly why Urban Veda has made the Purifying Hydrating Toner. This acts as a daily reset: clearing away impurities, calming irritated skin, balancing excess oil and leaving the skin fresh.
Key Ingredient:
Enriched with Neem, an anti-bacterial and purifying power herb of Ayurveda, this best toner for face prevents breakouts and promotes clear skin. Witch Hazel closes the pores, while Tea Tree oil calms irritation and heals the skin. ProVitamin B5, along with Glycerin helps in moisture retention so there is no tightness or drying out after use.

Toners are often underestimated, but the right one can completely transform your skincare routine. By restoring pH balance, sweeping away lingering impurities, and preparing your skin for deeper hydration, toners act as the bridge between cleansing and nourishing care. For those noticing fine lines or dullness, the best toner for ageing skin helps revive radiance and support elasticity.
If your skin feels unpredictable, the best toner for combination skin works to balance oil in the T-zone while keeping drier areas comfortable. To restore softness and comfort, the best toner for dry skin infuses hydration while calming tightness and flakiness.
