The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% - Exfoliating Toner 100ml
Product Description
The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner
A daily glycolic acid toner that smooths skin texture, evens tone, and enhances luminosity.
The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner (previously Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution) is an exfoliator that significantly smoothes skin texture and promotes the appearance of a more even skin tone, as well as more luminous skin, with regular use. It also reduces the appearance of lines and wrinkles. The water-based toner format is suited to daily use.
It contains a 7% concentration of Glycolic acid - a well-studied alpha-hydroxy acid - and a plant-derived Tasmanian Pepperberry derivative, which varies in colour seasonally, and which may cause an apparent colour variation in the formula from time to time.
This formula should not be used on sensitive, peeling or compromised skin. Please refer to the additional sun protection notes and other warnings in the provided directions.
The pH of this formula is approximately 3.6. Glycolic Acid has a pKa of 3.6 and pKa is the most important aspect to consider in formulating with acids. pKa describes the acidity of a molecule. When pKa is close to pH, there is an ideal balance between salt and acidity, maximizing effectiveness of the acid and reducing irritation.
Directions:
Face/Neck Application: Apply once daily, ideally in the evening. Apply to the face and neck using a cotton pad or ?ngers.
Scalp Application: Apply to dry scalp, three times a week. Tilt your head back and use the nozzle to gently dispense product from the front to the back of the head in a sweeping motion. Massage well.
Do not rinse o?. Do not use on sensitive, peeling, or compromised skin. Avoid the eye contour and contact with eyes.
Contact of the product with the skin must be of limited frequency or duration.
If eye or skin irritation occurs, rinse thoroughly, cease use, and consult a physician. Use only as directed on unbroken skin. Patch testing prior to use is advised. Keep out of reach of children.
Sunburn Alert: This product contains an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that may increase your skin's sensitivity to the sun and particularly the possibility of sunburn. Use a sunscreen, wear protective clothing, and limit sun exposure while using this product and for a week afterwards.

Unimpressed
I used about a quarter of the bottle before tossing it. It made my skin so sticky that I couldn't stand it. All day long I'd touch my face and think "yuck." It did not eventually absorb; it just sat on the surface. I couldn't wait to get home and wash it off. I tried using less, but you can only go so low before it's impossible to spread across your skin. I didn't use it long enough to see any difference in my complexion, so I can't comment on efficacy. The price is great and I had high hopes, but I won't be buying this again.

Best glycolic toner
I have used this toner since it's been launched, in my opinion it's the best glycolic toner on the market, I did however try a more expensive one in the hopes it would be better but didn't even finish it before going back to the ordinary

Love this for my scalp and body!
I used to have very oily hair and would get dry flaky patches on my scalp. Since using this on my scalp every time I wash I can now go 2-3 days between shampoos and the patches are a distant memory. I also put this in a spray bottle and use it under my arms, and now I no longer need deodorant except for those steamy summer days spent working in the yard. Love this stuff.

Great toner with benifits
I bought this a month ago, the first toner I’ve ever used. Im always surprised that it gets so much more make up off my skin even after I’ve cleansed! My skin then feels ready for my TO skin care routine.

Love it!
Love this toner! It’s lightweight, hydrating, and makes my skin feel fresh without any dryness. My pores look smaller, and my skin is way more balanced. No sticky residue, just a clean glow. Definitely repurchasing! Gifted by The Ordinary
