What you'll notice:

How To Use Murad Essential-C Toner

1. After cleansing, apply morning and evening. Mist or apply with cotton pad over face and neck.
2. Allow toner to absorb, then follow with your serum and moisturizer.
3. In the morning, be sure to follow with broad-spectrum SPF. In the evening, continue with your treatment routine.

Pro Tip (from estheticians): For even skin-tone support, apply from forehead down to neck in a downward motion to help with product absorption and firmness.
