With 7% Glycolic Acid, Amino Acids, Aloe Vera, Ginseng and Tasmanian Pepperberry.

Glycolic Acid is an alpha hydroxyl acid that exfoliates the skin. This 7% toning solution offers mild exfoliation for improved skin radiance and visible clarity. The formula also improves the appearance of skin texture with continued use.

This formula contains a studied Tasmanian Pepperberry derivative to help reduce irritation associated with acid use. This derivative is of plant origin and varies in colour seasonally and this colour variation may be apparent in the formula from time to time. The formula is further supported with inclusion of ginseng root and aloe vera for both visible radiance and soothing benefits.

This pH of this formula is approximately 3.6. Glycolic Acid has a pKa of 3.6 and pKa is the most important aspect to consider in formulating with acids. pKa implies acid availability. When pKa is close to pH, there is an ideal balance between salt and acidity, maximising effectiveness of the acid and reducing irritation. Higher pH numbers in such a case would increase salt which counter-intuitively would make the formula even more irritating than if the formula was more acidic.

Alcohol-free, nut-free, vegan, gluten-free, soy-free.

Directions

Use ideally in the PM, no more frequently than once per day. After cleaning, saturate a cotton pad with the formula and sweep across face and neck. Avoid the eye contour and contact with eyes. Do not rinse off. Continue with additional skin treatments as needed. If persistent irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult a physician.

This formula should not be used on sensitive, peeling or compromised skin. Sunburn Alert: This product contains an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that may increase your skin's sensitivity to the sun and particularly the possibility of sunburn. Use a sunscreen, wear protective clothing, and limit sun exposure while using this product and for a week afterwards. Use only as directed.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great for shaving I was gifted by TheOrdinary. I have always struggled with strawberry skin after shaving. It is really embarrassing especially when it comes time for bikini season. I use this product after shaving and it has reduced the amount of red bumps on my skin!!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good toner I use it twice a week after cleansing, the other nights I still have to finish up my Clinique toner first. It tingles a bit but no drastic reaction on my face. I’ll know if it’s good after I finished using the whole bottle.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Smaller than it use to be for same price Smaller than it use to be. If you’re going to make the product much smaller, at least sell it for half the price. This product doesn’t even last that long compared to how long it use to

Can I use vitamin c on my skin after I use this toner ?

Asked by: Fatima
It's probably best not to. Because both are quite acidic, it may be too much to put both on your skin at the same time. You could perhaps use Vitamin C in AM and only use this toner in the PM. You should only really use this toner once a day.

What is this like for acne / acne prone skin breakouts / acne scars? Any good ?? 

Asked by: Demi Lee
I used to have incredibly bad acne but luckily it is much milder as I have gotten older. I find this a gentler way to exfoliate my skin without irritating it. I can't say for sure whether it makes a huge difference to my acne (it may or may not) however it has helped the texture and scarring of my teen acne tremendously!

Can I use this product with the lactic acid 10% + ha?

Asked by: Poppy
You can but I recommend you tolerate the lactic acid 10% first before cooperating both into your routine as it can be quite harsh

I would like to use this product alongside the Retinoid. Is that possible? The tinned would be used first right?

Asked by: joanna
Hey there, Using Retinol and Glycolic acid together is a little bit complicated, this is because they can both dry out the skin. Normal/ oily skin types are fine to try this combination, if you’re on the drier or more sensitive side we would advise to start with glycolic acid and give your skin time to adjust. If you’re doing great with that and have no irritation, then you can add in retinol. Hope this helps! For further information on products please contact us on beautyexperts@feelunique.com. Many thanks Katie, Beauty Expert.

Can you use the buffet with this and if so, should it be before or after this toner?

Asked by: Michelle
Hey there, You can use this toner with The Buffet however you would use the toner first then apply The Buffet. This is because the toner has exfoliating properties which means your serum would be removed if applied first before toning. Hope this helps! Many thanks Katie, Beauty Expert.
