Alright, let’s debunk toner the same way we debunked pre-poo — calmly, honestly, and with just enough side-eye to keep it real 😌👀 Toner is not mandatory for melanated skin. It’s not a missing step. And it’s definitely not the reason somebody else’s face is glowing on your feed ✨📱 Toner showed up when skincare started doing the absolute most. Cleansers got aggressive, faces got tight, and instead of fixing the cleanser… we added a product to apologize for it. That apology? 🧴 Toner. It’s the skincare version of “my bad.” Most toners don’t fix skin. They soothe what was just irritated, refresh what was just stripped, and make routines feel official. Which is fine — but let’s not give it credit it didn’t earn. Melanin-rich skin already knows how to regulate itself when you stop poking it every night 😭 Back in the day, skincare was simple: Wash your face 🧼 Put something on it 🧴 Go live your life 🏃🏾‍♀️💨 No cotton rounds. No stinging = working logic. No fear that you “missed a step.” Toner is optional the same way pre-poo is optional — helpful in very specific situations, unnecessary when the foundation is solid. And that’s the part most routines skip. Inside the Rinoure Method, we don’t add steps — we fix order, technique, and consistency first. When the basics are right, toner stops feeling essential and starts feeling like what it really is: a preference, not a requirement. Skin didn’t get weaker. Routines just got louder 📢 👇🏾 Engagement check: If you’ve been using toner just because “everyone does,” drop a 🧴 If your skin is fine without it, drop a 😌

Quick reality check. If you’re scrolling the community, saving posts, nodding along like “mmm… that makes sense” but not actually doing anything — this post is for you. I made a quiz. And no — it’s not a cute beauty quiz. It doesn’t tell you what product to buy. It tells you what your hair and skin are responding to right now. Stress? Inflammation? Long-term imbalance? Slow recovery? Because here’s the thing most people don’t want to admit: When nothing seems to work, it’s usually not the routine It’s the signals underneath. The quiz gives you one of a few patterns, like: - Signal Overload (everything feels dramatic, suddenly) - Slow Response (nothing’s wrong… it’s just moving at biology speed) - and others that explain what’s actually happening Each result points you to the right next step —whether that’s education first, support, or deeper structure. No guessing. No panics. No “try this next.” If you’ve been stuck, stalled, or quietly confused…this is how you get unstuck without doing the most. 👉🏾 Take the quiz. Read your result. Then tell me in the comments which pattern you got.
