The lightweight, water-like formula is blended with plant-derived extracts—such as Tasmanian pepperberry, aloe, and ginseng—to help reduce irritation and support comfortable daily application. Packaged in an 8.1 fl oz bottle, it’s intended primarily for evening application and can be integrated into many skincare routines when used with appropriate sun protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow will this toner change my skin texture and brightness?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGlycolic acid at a 7% concentration works as an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) that helps dissolve the bonds between dead skin cells, encouraging smoother surface texture and increased light reflection.
