The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner – 240 ml

Description

The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner is a water‑based AHA toner designed to offer mild, surface exfoliation for smoother, brighter‑looking skin. Containing 7% glycolic acid, it helps to remove dead skin cells from the top layer of the skin, which can improve the look of dullness, textural irregularities and uneven tone with continued use.

The formula has a pH in the acidic range (around pH 3.5–3.7), which optimizes the performance of glycolic acid. In addition to the exfoliating acid, the toner includes a Tasmanian pepperberry derivative, ginseng root extract and aloe vera (as described by The Ordinary) to help support skin comfort and radiance while the acid works.

Used regularly in the evening, this toner helps the skin appear more luminous, smooth and refined, making it a popular first step after cleansing in many skincare routines.

• 7% glycolic acid (AHA) for mild daily exfoliation
• Helps improve the appearance of skin texture, clarity and overall radiance

Basic usage & cautions (summarized from official directions)

• Use ideally in the PM, no more than once per day.
• After cleansing, saturate a cotton pad and sweep over face and neck, avoiding the eye contour and broken skin. Do not rinse.
• Do not use on sensitive, peeling or compromised skin.
• Because AHAs increase sun sensitivity, use broad‑spectrum sunscreen and limit sun exposure while using this product and for a week afterwards.
