help Paula's Choice Skin Balancing Pore Minimizing Toner FAQ
Is the Skin Balancing toner the same as Paula's Choice 10% Niacinamide Booster?
No. The toner is a lightly hydrating, rinse-free step containing niacinamide alongside ingredients such as glycerin and adenosine, while the 10% booster is a more concentrated serum-style treatment.
When should I apply the Skin Balancing Pore-Reducing Toner?
Apply it after cleansing, using either clean hands or a cotton pad, and leave it on the skin. Paula's Choice recommends following with treatments such as an exfoliant or serum and then moisturizer, with sunscreen during the day.
Can this toner permanently shrink enlarged pores?
No topical toner can permanently change the anatomical size of a pore. Niacinamide and consistent oil control can make pores look less prominent, particularly on combination or oily skin.
Does the Paula's Choice toner contain fragrance or drying alcohol?
Paula's Choice identifies the Skin Balancing toner as fragrance-free. Anyone avoiding a specific alcohol or dealing with a known sensitivity should still check the current full ingredient list on the package.
