Product Details

Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner is a water-based, exfoliating toner formulated with 7% glycolic acid, a proven alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) that effectively exfoliates the skin. It helps to remove dead skin cells, revealing a smoother, more even texture. Regular use of this glycolic acid toner promotes the appearance of more luminous and radiant skin while reducing the visibility of fine lines, wrinkles, and other signs of aging.

This formulation also features a Tasmanian Pepperberry derivative, a plant extract that helps soothe the skin and reduce irritation commonly associated with exfoliation, making it suitable for frequent use. The presence of this natural ingredient may cause seasonal colour variation in the formula. With a carefully calibrated pH of approximately 3.6, the toner has an optimal balance between salt and acidity.

This multi-functional toner is not only effective on the face, but can also be applied to the scalp to help rebalance, hydrate, and reduce dryness. This formulation should not be used on sensitive, peeling, or compromised skin. For best results, it is recommended to follow sun protection guidance due to increased skin sensitivity to sunlight after use.

The Ordinary Tip:

  • To maximize the benefits of glycolic acid, consider incorporating the toner into your evening routine, and always follow with an SPF product during the day.
  • Apply this product to exfoliate small areas of the body experiencing rough and bumpy skin.
How to Use
  • Use as directed for the specific formula and patch test before first use.
  • Introduce new active products gradually if your routine is already ingredient-heavy.
Product & Safety Guidance
  • Patch testing prior to use is advised before adding a new formula to your routine.
  • Use only as directed on unbroken skin and reduce frequency if your skin feels stressed.
  • Pair daytime routines with daily SPF where appropriate, especially when using exfoliating or brightening actives.
  • If irritation occurs, rinse off, cease use, and consult a physician.
