Dr. Chang reports that this product “is an exfoliating but gentle toner that combines multiple chemical exfoliants as well as anti-inflammatory tea tree extract and skin-brightening niacinamide.” Acne-prone skin is often already inflamed, so it’s best to go in with a milder formula like this one if you’re looking to exfoliate. But don’t let its gentleness fool you—the three different exfoliators still work hard to lift dead skin cells, excess sebum, and other impurities for glowier, clearer skin.
Key ingredients: AHA, BHA, PHA, tea tree leaf water, niacinamide
Size: 5.07 oz.
Amazon rating: 4.5/5 stars
An Amazon reviewer says: “I’ve been using this for about two weeks now, and it has worked wonders for my skin! Prior to this, I was using all kinds of toner and acne medications, but my skin would clear up a little bit and then get bad again. I was so desperate, and I found this. This toner cleared up my acne, and now my skin is so clear, smooth, and hydrated. Even without foundation, it looks and feels great! I know everyone’s skin is different, and a product may be great for one person but may not be for others. This is working for me, and I hope it continues to work. You won’t know until you try.”
This is a great resource. Thanks for putting it together!
