Toners “soap up” during application?

Is it just me or are there toners that you’ve used that kinda “soap up” a little when you apply them?🤔 Like it’s fine if you use cotton pads but when you directly pat them in, and try to just get it across your entire face, it gives this tiny lather effect. It disappears shortly after, when it’s sunk into your skin but like it happened. So is it just me? Most toners I’ve used turned out that way and it’s usually like: I cleanse, then go on with the toner application and that happens. Let me know if you’ve experienced something similar. Oh and here’s some of the toners I used, all of which I loved btw✨ EDIT: I’m glad I brought this up because I’d not have been able to confirm that it’s actually COMMON and almost everyone has had some experience with it. This is why I love the Picky community!🥰❤️Y’all always come through🌟

you’re absolutely right!😅 I sometimes think it’s residue from the cleansing step too, but it happens quite frequently 😂

mine too! sometimes when i use snail essence from cosrx its foam up too, i think that maybe the cleanser wasnt cleansed enough or the ingredients itself is easy to foam up like snail

Yea. I experienced it with Somebymi’s toner. It feels weird but it gets absorbed and doesn’t leave any sticky feeling.

Interesting! Do you pat in the toners or rub/massage them? I pat in the toners & haven't experienced the "lather" effect. ☺️ I've used these 3, so far.

I pat them in and spread all over my face, not rub. I use the COSRX essence too but it doesn’t happen with that texture, so it’s more of toners

I experience that even though I just pat toner using my hand. I already rinse my face and hand throughly. I wonder why too
