These are common symptoms of a toner allergy. You may notice your skin getting red, itchy, and irritated shortly after using a toner that you're allergic to. This can happen immediately or several hours after usage.
In more severe cases, you may observe swelling in the area where the toner was applied. It could range from minor swelling to significant, especially around your eyes, lips, and face.
Rashes or hives could appear on the skin due to an allergic reaction to a toner. They can be red, blotchy, and often very itchy, causing a great deal of discomfort.
An allergic reaction to toner may cause excessive dryness leading to flaking and peeling skin. This is because the skin may be trying to rid itself of the allergen.
A sense of tightness or a burning sensation on the skin could be another sign of a toner allergy. This usually occurs almost immediately after the product has been applied and may be particularly noticeable when trying to open or move the mouth or eyes.
In rare, severe cases, a toner allergy could cause blisters on the skin. These can look similar to those caused by severe sunburn and might ooze or crust over.

When purchasing a toner, look for products labelled as hypoallergenic. These products are less likely to cause an allergic reaction because they are formulated without common skin irritants. Hypoallergenic toners are designed to be gentler and safer for sensitive skin.
Before applying toner to your entire face, always do a small patch test on your skin. You can do this by applying a small amount of the product to your inner wrist or elbow and waiting 24 hours. If you don't experience any negative reactions, it is likely safe to use on your face.
Understanding your skin type is crucial when it comes to skin care. If your skin is sensitive or prone to allergies, steer clear from toners containing fragrance, alcohol, or other harsh ingredients. Instead, opt for toners that contain skin-soothing ingredients like aloe vera, chamomile , or rosewater.
Overusing toner can irritate your skin and trigger an allergic reaction. To prevent overuse, apply toner once a day initially. If your skin tolerates it well, then you can gradually increase to twice a day. Always follow the usage directions on the product packaging.
