Our verdict

An alcohol-free exfoliating toner for anyone who wants a mild acid step on a witch hazel base. Acids call for care on reactive skin, and the listing gives no usage directions.

Overview

Not a plain astringent splash, this is an exfoliating toner that adds glycolic and lactic acid to a witch hazel base. It is applied to the face to smooth uneven skin and refine the look of pores.

Pairing two alpha hydroxy acids with witch hazel gives a one-step exfoliating toner that stays free of alcohol and dye. The limitation is that the listing offers no usage frequency or sun-care guidance, which matters with any acid exfoliant.

Who it's for

Uneven texture, visible pores and bumpy skin are the situation, and the listing names every skin type. Those who react to acids, or are new to exfoliants, should confirm directions on the bottle first.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Glycolic and lactic acid exfoliation
  • Alcohol free and dye free
  • Witch hazel base
  • Targets visible pores
Cons
  • Acids raise sun sensitivity
  • Usage directions not listed
  • Scent listed only as natural

Performance notes

Glycolic and lactic acids loosen the bonds between dead surface cells, which is how the toner smooths texture and refines the look of pores. Witch hazel contributes the astringent base. Results depend on how often it is used and on whether sunscreen follows, because freshly exfoliated skin burns more easily.
