Overview
A 6.76 fl oz alcohol-free BHA toner combining salicylic acid with niacinamide and cica, aimed at blackheads, breakouts and pore size across acne-prone, dry, oily, combination and normal skin.
The formula pairs a chemical exfoliant, salicylic acid, with niacinamide and cica, ingredients more associated with calming redness than aggressive exfoliation, which points to a gentler BHA toner rather than a high-strength peel. It is listed as alcohol free, fragrance free, dye free and dermatologist tested.
- 6.76 fl oz, alcohol free BHA toner
- Salicylic acid, niacinamide, cica and betaine
- Formulated for acne prone, dry, oily, combination and normal skin
- Vegan, cruelty free, dermatologist tested
Who it's for
Suits people managing blackheads, breakouts or enlarged pores who want a gentler BHA toner rather than a harsh exfoliant. Also fits sensitive skin users given the alcohol free and fragrance free formulation, though anyone new to salicylic acid should patch test first.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Alcohol free, fragrance free and dye free formula
- Combines salicylic acid with calming niacinamide and cica
- Dermatologist tested, vegan and cruelty free
- No reviews available to confirm results on blackheads or breakouts
- Chemical exfoliants can still irritate skin new to BHA regardless of formulation
Performance notes
Salicylic acid works as a chemical exfoliant that penetrates into pores to help clear blackheads and reduce breakouts, while the added niacinamide and cica are included to offset the irritation that BHA exfoliants can otherwise cause.
