Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution for Smoother, Clearer Skin
This 7% Glycolic Acid Toning Solution is formulated to gently exfoliate, help reduce acne breakouts, and support skin hydration in one easy step. Ideal for those dealing with congestion, uneven texture, and dullness, it helps refine the appearance of pores and promotes a fresher-looking complexion over time.
Containing 7% Glycolic Acid, an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA), this lotion-texture toner works on the skin's surface to dissolve the bonds that hold dead skin cells together. By clearing away this buildup, it helps keep pores from becoming clogged, which can contribute to blackheads, whiteheads, and acne. Regular use can improve the feel of rough or bumpy areas and support a more even-looking skin tone.
The formula is designed to combine exfoliation with hydration. While the glycolic acid works to resurface, the moisturizing components help maintain the skin's moisture balance, reducing the chance of tightness or dryness often associated with exfoliating products. The lightweight lotion texture absorbs easily and is suitable for nightly use, depending on your skin's tolerance. It is generally best suited for oily and acne-prone skin, but can also be used by combination types who experience congestion in specific areas.
Because glycolic acid is an active exfoliating ingredient, this toning solution should be introduced gradually into your routine. Start with a few evenings per week and adjust frequency as your skin adapts. Always follow with a gentle moisturizer, and use a broad-spectrum sunscreen during the day, as AHAs can increase sensitivity to the sun.

FAQ
Q: Can I use this toning solution every day?
A: Many users can build up to daily evening use, but it is recommended to start 2-3 times per week and increase gradually based on how your skin responds.
Q: Is this suitable for sensitive skin?
A: Due to the 7% Glycolic Acid content, those with sensitive or easily irritated skin should patch test first and use with caution, or consult a dermatologist before use.
Q: Do I need to wear sunscreen when using this product?
A: Yes. Glycolic Acid can increase sun sensitivity, so a broad-spectrum sunscreen should be applied every morning while using this product and for at least a week after discontinuing use.
Q: Can I use this with other exfoliating products?
A: It is generally best not to layer multiple strong exfoliants (such as other AHAs, BHAs, or retinoids) in the same routine to minimize the risk of irritation. If you wish to combine actives, seek personalized guidance from a skincare professional.
