Toners - Necessary or not?

There's really no yes or no answer to this one.  Toners can be beneficial if used correctly.  When you wash your face, there's bound to be a little residue left over.  Toners can help remove that residue and dead skin cells.  The best way to use a toner and ensure it's benefitting your skin is to apply it on moist skin. When you apply a product on moist skin, it helps the product penetrate your skin more rapidly.  Same goes for moisturizers etc. 
The moral of this story is that if you plan on using a toner, use one with good ingredients.  Avoid toners with alcohol, even if you have oily skin.  Pictured are some great toners if you plan on trying one as part of your skin care regimen.

Versace for H&M

So I was browsing the H&M website and came across this amazing bustier top by none other than Versace!
I love everything about this top from the colors to the structure. You could pair this with an amazing black maxi skirt for an evening look or a pair of dark denim skinny jeans for a more casual look. Don't forget a great statement necklace and a chunky bracelet to finish off the look!
