Tonics are slightly stronger (up to 20% alcohol) for normal or combination skin. Astringents are strongest (20-60% slcohol) and are best for oily skin.

Toner is used to tone blemishes in your skin. Regularly putting toner will help moisturize and remove dark spots from your skin by removing dead skin cells and cleaning up skin pores. This will also minimize big pores in the skin.
