The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution

Description

The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution is a popular skincare product renowned for its exfoliating and brightening properties. Here are some key features and benefits of this toning solution:

• Glycolic Acid: Glycolic acid is an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) known for its ability to exfoliate the skin by dissolving the bonds between dead skin cells. The 7% concentration in this toning solution provides effective exfoliation, helping to improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and promote a smoother, more radiant complexion.
• Exfoliation: The exfoliating action of glycolic acid helps to remove dead skin cells from the surface of the skin, revealing fresher, brighter skin underneath. Regular use of the toning solution can help to refine pores, even out skin tone, and reduce the appearance of blemishes and hyperpigmentation.
• Improves Skin Texture: By encouraging cell turnover and promoting the production of collagen and elastin, glycolic acid helps to improve skin texture and elasticity, resulting in a more youthful and supple appearance.
• Brightening: Glycolic acid also has brightening properties that can help to diminish the appearance of dullness and uneven skin tone. It can help to fade dark spots, sun damage, and other forms of hyperpigmentation, leading to a more luminous complexion.
• pH Balanced: The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution is formulated with a pH level of approximately 3.6, which is within the optimal range for glycolic acid to be effective. This ensures that the product can deliver maximum exfoliating benefits while minimizing irritation.
• Alcohol-Free and Vegan: The toning solution is alcohol-free, making it suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin. It is also vegan and cruelty-free, aligning with The Ordinary’s commitment to ethical and sustainable skincare practices.
• Usage: The toning solution is typically used after cleansing and before applying serums and moisturizers. It can be applied to the skin using a cotton pad or fingertips, avoiding the eye area. It is recommended to use sunscreen during the day when using products containing AHAs like glycolic acid, as they can increase skin sensitivity to the sun.
