Dr. Lal and Dr. Rambhia both agree to avoid any formula that contains alcohol as it will cause and exacerbate dryness.<\/p>\n<p><h2><strong>What is the best toner for a 50-year-old woman?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRemember, at this age, less is more,\u201d says Dr. Rambhia, who adds that you want to focus on nurturing your skin rather than aggressive exfoliation. Collagen, the key protein responsible for skin\u2019s firmness, elasticity, and moisture retention, begins to decline at 20. Studies show that women lose 30 percent of collagen during the first five years of menopause, with levels continuing to drop gradually afterward. Because of this, Dr. Rambhia says that someone in their fifties should look for a toner that focuses on replenishing and supporting their skin with hydrating glycerin and hyaluronic acid, barrier-strengthening ceramides, collagen-boosting peptides, and antioxidants to combat environmental damage.<\/p>\n<p><h2><strong>Who should not use toner?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>There may be no age limit on glowing skin, but toner isn&#8217;t necessarily a must-have for everyone. Dr. Lal says there&#8217;s no age at which you&#8217;re &#8220;too old&#8221; to use one, though if you&#8217;re already using a great cleanser and your skin feels balanced, you may not need it. Evaluate your skin: \u201cIf it\u2019s healthy and balanced without a toner, there&#8217;s no need to introduce one into your routine,\u201d says Dr. Rambhia, adding that some people&#8217;s skin simply functions better with a minimalist approach.<\/p>\n<p><h2><strong>Meet the experts<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Alessandra Haskin, MD, a board-certified dermatologist at Weiser Skin MD based in New York City<\/li>\n<li>Saami Khalifian, MD, board-certified dermatologist and founder of SOM Aesthetics in San Diego, CA<\/li>\n<li>Karan Lal, DO, a board-certified dermatologist in Scottsdale and New York City<\/li>\n<li>Pooja Rambhia, MD, a board-certified dermatologist at UnionDerm based in New York City<\/li>\n<li>Carlos Vieira, a board-certified dermatologist at The Dermatology Specialists based in Philadelphia<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><h2><strong>How we test and review products<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>When <em>Allure<\/em> tests a product, our editors look at it from every angle to best serve you.
