Exfoliators & Exfoliating Toners
Chemical exfoliants dissolve the bonds holding dull, dead cells to the surface — no scrubbing involved. Glycolic and lactic acid (AHAs) work on tone and texture; salicylic acid (a BHA) is oil-soluble, so it suits congested, blemish-prone skin. 3 products.
Exfoliators & Exfoliating Toners: a short guide
AHA or BHA?
For dullness, rough texture and uneven tone, an AHA: the Glycolic Acid Exfoliating Toner for regular use, or the AHA Peeling Concentrate as a stronger weekly treatment. For blackheads and visible pores, the salicylic acid Purifying Toner.
How often should I exfoliate?
Start with two evenings a week and build up only if your skin stays comfortable. Do not combine with other strong actives on the same night, and wear sunscreen every morning — acids make skin more sensitive to the sun.
