Glycolic Acid Toner

Glycolic Acid Toner: Having that true “lit-from-within” glow requires more than just moisture, it requires active renewal. This 3% Glycolic Acid Toner is formulated to clear away the buildup of old, dull skin that traps oil and settles into fine lines. By clearing this surface debris, the formula allows your natural, healthy skin to breathe and reflect light.  This specific concentration is powerful enough to brighten hyperpigmentation and refine pores, yet gentle enough to be used by skin of colour without causing irritation.

This 3% Glycolic Acid Toner is designed for results without the irritation often found in stronger exfoliants.

Glycolic Acid Toner Benefits

• Gentle Resurfacing: Sweeps away dull skin and unclogs pores to reveal a smoother texture.

• Brightens & Fades: Helps clear away hyperpigmentation, Chubaba, dark spots and acne marks for a more even skin tone.

• Firming Action: Supports natural collagen to help skin look firmer and more youthful.

• Better Product Absorption: By clearing away the surface debris, your serums and moisturizers can finally sink in and work harder.

• Smooths “Chicken Skin”: Effectively targets the rough, bumpy texture of Keratosis Pilaris.

What’s Inside Glycolic Acid Toner

• Glycolic Acid & Glucono Delta-Lactone: We’ve paired the fast-acting power of Glycolic Acid with the slow-release nature of Glucono Delta-Lactone (PHA). While the Glycolic Acid dives deep to shift stubborn debris and fade dark marks, the PHA works on the surface to hydrate and smooth. This “multi-level” exfoliation gives you the high-gloss finish of a peel without the redness or downtime.

• Panthenol & Allantoin: To ensure your skin stays calm during the renewal process, we’ve infused this toner with Panthenol (Vitamin B5) and Allantoin. Think of these as the “peacekeepers” of the formula, they actively soothe irritation, lock in moisture, and support the healing of acne-prone areas. Instead of feeling tight or stripped, your skin is left feeling soft, bouncy, and resilient.

How to Use

• Apply during your nighttime routine only.

• Start with once or twice a week. You can increase this to a maximum of three times a week, if your skin tolerates it. Remember, over-exfoliating is never a good idea.

Application Steps

1. Cleanse: Start with a clean, dry face.

2. Apply: Saturate a cotton pad and gently pat the toner into the skin. Avoid the delicate eye area.

3. Leave On: Do not rinse off. Follow with a hydrating serum and/or moisturizer.

Avoid using this toner in the same session as other AHAs (Alpha Hydroxy Acids) or Vitamin C.

• Best For: Normal, Combination, and Oily skin types.

• Skin of Colour: This 3% concentration is specifically chosen because it is safe and effective for skin of colour, minimizing the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

• Sensitive Skin: If you have very dry or hypersensitive skin, we recommend our Lactic Acid Toner as a gentler alternative.
