Analyze composition on the BeautyDecoded App
Description
AQUA, GLYCOLIC ACID (AHA exfoliating acid), LEMONGRASS WATER, SODIUM HYDROXIDE, 1,2-HEXANEDIOL, ERYTHRITOL, GLYCERIN, BENZYL ALCOHOL (Regulated allergen), DEHYDROACETIC ACID, CITRIC ACID, POTASSIUM SORBATE, SODIUM BENZOATE, CITRAL (Regulated allergen) This Typology toner combines glycolic acid (8 %) with an aqueous extract of lemongrass (*Cymbopogon schoenanthus*). Glycolic acid, a low-molecular-weight alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA), acts by chemical exfoliation: it breaks the bonds between corneocytes on the epidermal surface, encouraging their desquamation and accelerating cell renewal. At this concentration of 8 %, it also helps refine skin texture, reduce uneven skin tone and improve skin texture with regular use. Citronella floral water provides soothing and slightly astringent properties, while glycerine and erythritol play a humectant role to limit the potential drying effect of AHAs. The pH is adjusted with sodium hydroxide and citric acid to optimize the efficacy of glycolic acid while maintaining acceptable tolerance. This product is suitable for dull, irregularly-textured skin or skin with slight hyperpigmentation. It is not recommended for very sensitive or reactive skin, and daily sun protection is essential when using it, as AHAs increase skin photosensitivity.Informations complémentaires

Written review of the BeautyDecoded application -
superb for really removing grime from pores
i love this product and use it without absorbent cotton, with my finger. you can feel that it tingles slightly without causing redness, and you can feel that the product is working. on the other hand, if i put on sun cream the next day, i haven't had any problems with pigmentation spots or anything else.
