The Ordinary Glycolic Acid Toner

The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution 240ml - Exfoliating Toner for Smoother, Brighter Skin

The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution 240ml is an exfoliating toner designed to improve the texture and tone of your skin. Glycolic Acid, an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA), gently removes dead skin cells from the surface, promoting cell turnover and leaving your skin looking smoother and more radiant. This toner helps to brighten the complexion, even skin tone, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles over time.

The solution also contains Aloe Vera and Ginseng Extract to soothe and calm the skin, making it suitable for most skin types, including those prone to sensitivity. Its pH-balanced formula provides gentle exfoliation without causing irritation or dryness when used as directed. Regular use of this toner helps unclog pores, improving the overall texture and appearance of the skin.

This exfoliating toner can be incorporated into your morning and evening skincare routines, effectively preparing your skin for the next steps in your regimen. With consistent use, the 7% Glycolic Acid helps reduce the visibility of dullness, leaving your complexion glowing and youthful. It is free from parabens, sulfates, and phthalates, making it safe for regular use.
