Key ingredients and benefits

How and when to use
- Timing: Use this toner in your evening skincare routine, and no more than once per day.
- Application: After cleansing, apply the solution to a cotton pad and sweep it across your face and neck. Do not rinse it off.
- Consistency: If you are new to chemical exfoliants, start with 2–3 times per week and gradually increase the frequency as your skin adjusts.
- On the scalp: The multi-functional formula can also be applied to the scalp up to three times a week to help with dryness and flakiness. Apply directly from the nozzle to a dry scalp and massage it in.
- On the body: It can also be used to exfoliate bumpy or rough skin on other parts of the body.
